๐พ Meet Dartanian - Our Gentle Giant ๐พ
In this video, watch as Dartanian, our 7-year-old American Pit Bull Terrier, and I walk into a clientโs home with two small, shy pups. Without hesitation, Dartanian lies down, making himself approachable and creating a calm environment for the little ones. This was his first time in their house. ๐ถโค๏ธ
This moment perfectly showcases the incredible behavior of an intact male dog, especially one who has raised puppies before. It also highlights the power of patience, hard work, and dedication in dog training.
With the right approach and without the use of harsh tools, you can achieve remarkable results in dog behavior. Dartanian is living proof of what positive reinforcement, discipline, and love can accomplish. ๐

Meet Odin ๐พ, our four-legged friend who's mastering the art of the leash. With his dedicated human by his side, Odin is learning to navigate the bustling world around him with confidence.

Leadership is key when it comes to harmonious pack dynamics. In this video, you'll see a perfect demonstration of impulse control and discipline amongst a large pack of dogs. This level of obedience and calm is only possible when proper leadership is established. Without effective leadership, conflict arises. Remember, your dog looks to you for guidance, so step up and lead the pack. Together, we can create peaceful, obedient, and happy dogs. Remember, dont be a boss, be a Leader. #BostonDogtor #DogTraining #LeadThePack #dogs #puppy #PuppySocialization #greatpyrenees #labrador #boston #dogofboston #bostondogs
Say hello to Maxx, the resilient German Shepherd. Maxx came to us struggling with severe reactivity, which had escalated to the point of redirecting towards his mom when seeing other dogs on walks. Despite his challenging past, including injuries to his tail and jaw, Maxx is showing amazing progress. Our video captures him calmly walking around other dogs, with his reactivity now minimal. He still has 3-4 weeks left in our board-and-train program, and we're excited that his mom will be joining us for training sessions starting this weekend. Follow us to keep up with Maxx's journey towards becoming the best dog he can be.

Meet Duke, the German Shepherd who redefined his narrative.๐พ From a misunderstood fur buddy struggling to get along with other dogs and people, to a respected pack member who loves making new friends. This transformation wasn't just about training Duke, but about unlearning incorrect guidance from previous training, experiences, and improving communication. Remember, it's never the dog's fault but a reflection of their environment. Duke still has a long way to go, however, generalization training has been going as planned with his owners. Here's to celebrating Duke's journey and to all the tails he will wag in the future! ๐
Duke is currently part of our behavior modification Board & Train program. All of our Board & Train programs come with a 1-3 year warranty.

These two beautiful pups are working on the "Heel" command and handler engagement. Carlos (Boston Dogtor Trainer) demonstrating great communication and encouragement, which produces great engagement from the dog.
