Murphy is headed home today after her 2 week + ecollar intro stay! Murphy is a silly girl that likes to go non-stop…unless she thinks there might be pets involved & in that case, she’s the fastest belly flipper in the land 😂 She’s been working on her recall, not jumping up, her positional stays, & more.
Cash & River are headed home today after their ecollar intro program! We worked on their loose leash walking, responding to their individual names, their positional stays, & more 😊 In this clip you’ll see Cash notice a rolling mule during part of it - they both did so well at remaining calm & listening to instruction despite the distraction.
Jimmy is headed home today after his two weeks with us! He’s been working on not jumping, not barking excessively at new things, coming when called, & more!
Our Beginner Novice Prep Group Class working on their “sit & walk around” tonight in class! (Charlie did a down/stay instead)
Kasey is headed home today after her stay with us for our Foundation Dog program! This program is designed for puppies 3-5 months old & in it we work on name recognition (coming when called), loose leash walking, “place”, being quiet in a crate for rest periods, “supervised” separation (being calm when human is just out of sight or behind a barrier like a baby gate), not jumping up/biting, & more 😊
Kayce had a good Private Lesson tonight! We’ve been working on her confidence around other dogs & tonight Resident Bet helped with some command discrimination 😊 Kayce was listening for “down” & was very good about waiting to do so!
Knox is headed home today after his two week +ecollar intro Board & Train! Mr. Knox is a fairly low-key guy that has a tendency to hear direction & just keep on doing whatever it was he had originally set out to do, so we worked a lot on helping him understand that what he wanted to do & what we wanted him to do was one in the same 😊
Molly is headed back home today after her week with us! She’s a previous grad of our Off Leash Club program, so her week was spent reinforcing those off leash skills like recall out of play as seen here 😊
Ivar is heading home today after his week with us! He was here for our on leash ecollar intro program & has done so well! Despite his size, this boy is still just a baby at around 8 months old 😳 He’s had a good time learning to keep that puppy energy in check when around others & how to better ask for pets/affection than jumping for kisses & pets ☺️
Ruth is heading home today after her stay with us! We worked a lot on not jumping up, listening around other dogs, & coming when called 😊 In this clip you’ll see some loose leash walking, down-until-released, sit-until-released, & “place”.
Buckley is headed home today after his two weeks + ecollar intro! Buckley worked on his leash walking skills (especially continuing walking), coming when called, not jumping up, & much more 😊 His favorite activity is sunbathing, though, so we made sure he got plenty of time for that too!
Obie is heading home today after his two weeks + ecollar intro! Obie is a dog who prefers to spend his time flat 🤣 He loooooves to run & play but his idea of play is to SLIDE onto the ground & let other dogs flail on top of/beside him - it’s adorable & we love him for it! We worked on staying upright during training (rather than melting for belly rubs every time) & he has done well 😊 You can see the gravitational pull of the earth starting to get to him on that recall but look at his happy expression & tail when walking after that!
Pyro is headed home today after her stay with us! Pyro did a set of 5 In-Home Lessons prior to coming for our Foundation Dog Program, so we were able to build upon that! We worked on her impulse control, coming when called, loose leash walking, “place”, being calm in the presence of other dogs, & more 😊
Boaz & Taz are headed home today after their two week ecollar intro Board & Train stay! These boys worked a lot on impulse control & toning down their excitement when appropriate 😊
Ranger worked on his impulse control in today’s In-Home Lesson!
Whiskey is headed home today after his two weeks + ecollar intro! Whiskey is a typical herding type dog who likes to anticipate actions before commands (handy on a farm!) & sometimes that leads to trouble when he doesn’t anticipate exactly correctly in the real world. We’ve also worked on some more confidence when not glued to a human’s side (also can be a herdy trait!) & he’s done well with the added structure & has taken training very seriously. In this clip, you’ll see loose leash walking, a sit-until-released, down-until-released, & “place”
Marshall is headed home today after his two weeks with us! Marshall is a very easily excited puppy who often leaps well before he looks, so we focused on bringing some of that energy down into a more controllable amount (without losing his sense of fun, of course!).
Sasha is headed back home today! During “refresh” stays, we are often using that time to reinforce skills already known by the dog, such as holding an off-leash down until released when a toy is thrown 😊
Charlie is headed home today after his two weeks + ecollar intro! In this chaotic clip, he has “help” from Russ (Off Leash Club alum) & Bet (Resident Puppy). During his stay, Charlie worked on ecollar understanding, loose leash walking, & increased reliability on his known positions. We’ve worked with Charlie since he was a little puppy in Group Classes so while there’s a lot going on in this video - we knew that he could handle our tiny tornado distraction 😂 (Russ is the off leash lab listening for the release cue “break” or his name, Charlie is on the yellow line listening for “free” or his name).
Elvis is also leaving the building (😉) today! Elvis is a pup that struggles with some anxiety that manifests in vocal reactivity as well as lunging on his leash, so during his stay we worked on his confidence in his commands as well as making sure his leash skills were improved 😊
