There’s truth here

When I tell some clients what their dog will be learning during training I often hear “my dog already knows that”, or “she already sits for me when I have food/treats”. They miss the point. It matters little that a dog performs a behavior on occasion if that behavior isn’t reliable. Repetition builds reliability.

Dogs don’t master behaviors after one lesson. They master them after hundreds of reps—until sit, stay, and recall become automatic.

✅ Repetition creates muscle memory.
✅ It builds habits that hold up in the real world.
✅ It gives dogs confidence and clarity in what’s expected.

The hardest part? For us humans, it can feel boring. I get it. Dog training isn’t always fun and sexy. But for your dog, it’s exactly what they need.

Do the reps. Build the habit. And watch your dog’s “training” turn into second nature.

I enjoy working with first time dog owners. Most are open minded to learning and all want a better way of raising a psychologically healthy dog. When social media or YouTube become their only way of gathering information, they tend to feel overwhelmed and confused about the right approach. One on one instruction can provide a great deal of clarity and direction. Gracie and her human just began one of our training programs designed to start them off on the right foot, or the right paw.

Back to it after a few days off and straight to work with Ruby and her pack, this time in the park. Ruby‘s been coming in for lessons during the past few weeks and has been making significant progress in her overall ability to focus and control her impulses. Not a small feat for a girl like this. She’s energized, excitable, and can be at times unruly. We did a few sessions of ecollar work and decided to put it all to the test outdoors. Luckily the summer weather is still hanging around and cooperating. More videos of her training in the comments.

Bandit is back for only one night of boarding, so I immediately got down to training him just to keep his skills sharp and to remind him of what’s expected of him around here. After this I’ll be take a few days off from any training before I burn out and to recharge my batteries.

September is already packed with new board and train dogs, quite a few private lessons, and some new day training dogs. October is also quickly filling up. Fall is looking to be a busy season for me. I may need a full vacation soon. If you have any suggestions as to where I should go, drop them in the comments. I’m open to recommendations.

Leo has graduated and successfully completed his 3 weeks of training. He doesn’t have a great deal of confidence but he mustered through and can now show off his new skills. A true sweetheart of a dog. I’m proud of you Leo.

AI still can’t figure out what I look like. Makes me look like some guy named Todd who lives in the suburbs and sips on chai lattes…but you get the point.

Yesterday afternoon, Leo and I took his obedience training on the road to Saratoga. He’ll be heading back home tomorrow and we had to test his skills in the real world.

Tyson is back home with his family. He was a challenging dog to work with. Great dog, friendly, social, but likes to push boundaries. Exactly the kind of dog that needs some strong obedience training.

My Story

I’ve been working with dogs in one capacity or another since my childhood in Brooklyn. My love and affinity towards animals made it only natural that my progression should be towards helping them navigate their way through life.

The culmination of my education (although the learning never ends) had led me to try different methods and approaches when working with dogs and seeking an outcome but one thing has remained a constant and that is the focus on the relationship between human and dog.

As I continue in my career, the need to educate both ends of the leash becomes an obvious means of achieving the results that my clients want. Ultimately it means a life with mutual trust, respect, and understanding.
