Dog Tranquility LLC

Dog Tranquility LLC Award Winning Animal Wellness Coach Hey there, I'm Colleen. In this whirlwind of life, I've walked the path you're on.

First and foremost, I'm an animal mom and a human mom, navigating the joyful chaos of caring for two kids alongside a diverse furry family. With 2 cats, 2 dogs, and a history of nurturing various species including birds and reptiles, my life is a beautiful blend of laughter, love, and yes... cleaning up dog p**p – just like you. Each day starts with the crack of dawn, as I rise to ensure my four-l

egged companions are fed and walked before my kids are off to school and I'm headed to work. I understand the challenges of rescuing a dog, only to discover their leash reactivity, and the helpless feeling that comes with wanting the best for them, but also dreaming of the day when I can zen out on a walk instead of constantly being hyper vigilant. Navigating the complexities of caring for a dog with medical needs is a journey I'm intimately familiar with, from finding the right care to staying on top of their specialized needs. As a woman, I've mastered the art of juggling – balancing kids, household chores, work, errands, vet appointments, and yes, even the complexities of divorce. As a certified animal aromatherapist and experienced dog trainer with over 15 years in the field, I specialize in holistic wellness programs tailored for pet parents ready to cultivate a healthy, joyful relationship with their furry companions. If you're seeking a unique approach to animal care, one that prioritizes holistic well-being and fosters a deeper bond between you and your animals, then it's time for a change. I understand the highs and lows, the joys and struggles. And now, armed with my experiences and expertise, I'm here to support you on your journey, helping you and your beloved pets thrive amidst life's beautiful chaos. Are you ready for a different type of animal care experience?

As many of us know, dogs are more than just pets—they're family. ❤️ But sometimes, our furry friends can exhibit aggressive behaviors that are both concerning and challenging. The good news? Proper dog training can make a world of difference!

Why Training Matters:

Understanding Triggers: Professional training helps identify what might be causing aggression in your dog, whether it's fear, anxiety, or past trauma.

Building Trust: Through consistent training, you build a stronger bond of trust and communication with your dog. This is crucial for helping them feel secure and less likely to react aggressively.

Teaching Social Skills: Training often includes socialization exercises, teaching your dog how to interact calmly and positively with other dogs and people.

Setting Boundaries: Dogs need to understand boundaries. Training helps them learn what behaviors are acceptable, reducing instances of aggression.

Promoting Mental Stimulation: Engaging your dog in training exercises keeps their mind active, which can reduce frustration and prevent aggressive outbursts.

Remember, aggression isn't something to ignore or accept. With patience, consistency, and the right approach, you can help your dog become a happier, more relaxed member of your family. 🐾💕

Feel free to share your experiences below! Let's support each other create safe and loving homes for our canine companions. 🏡❤️🐾



By incorporating these strategies, we can work towards a future where every dog feels safe, understood, and loved. Let's make it happen! 🌟🐶❤️

Welcome Home, Max! 🐾

I have to share this heartwarming story about a couple who recently welcomed a new member into their family, Max, their adorable golden retriever! 🐶💕 From the moment they saw his big, soulful eyes and wagging tail, they knew he was the one. Their hearts are overflowing with joy and excitement as they welcome him into their home.

Max's arrival brought a whirlwind of emotions. The kids are over the moon, showering him with hugs and kisses. 🥰 Their house feels livelier with his playful energy and constant curiosity. However, this transition hasn’t been without its challenges.

For them, it's been a learning curve to understand Max's needs and establish a routine. There were sleepless nights as he adjusted to his new environment and occasional accidents as he learned where to do his business. 🐾💦 They had to puppy-proof the house, hiding shoes and securing trash cans. It's been a test of patience, but seeing him grow and settle in makes it all worthwhile.

Max, too, faced his share of challenges. From being in a new place with unfamiliar smells and sounds to missing his littermates, it's been a lot for him to process. They've seen moments of anxiety and uncertainty in his eyes, which tug at their hearts. But with every wag of his tail and snuggle, they know he’s feeling more at home.

One thing that has made this transition smoother for them is hiring a pet wellness coach. As their coach, I provide advice on training and behavior, as well as nutrition. More importantly, I use holistic methods, like aromatherapy, to address Max's physical and emotional needs. Having the right support can be crucial in building a strong, positive relationship with Max from day one.

Additionally, diffusing the New Home Blend has worked wonders. The soothing aroma has helped create a calm and comforting environment, easing Max’s anxiety and making their home feel even more welcoming. 🌿✨

To anyone welcoming a new furry friend, I highly recommend considering a pet wellness coach and the New Home Blend. The guidance and tranquility they bring can make a world of difference, ensuring a smoother and happier transition for both you and your new companion.

Here's to many happy memories and adventures with Max! 🐾❤️🏡

🌳🐾 Taking Your Dog for a Walk: More Than Just Exercise! 🐾🌳

Hey friends! 🌟

I just got back from an amazing walk with my pup, and I wanted to share some thoughts on why this simple daily routine can be so special for both you and your furry friend. 🐶❤️

Quality Bonding Time: Walking your dog is the perfect opportunity to strengthen that incredible bond you share. It's a time to connect, communicate, and understand each other better. Plus, there's nothing like seeing their tail wag with pure joy! 🐕

Embrace Nature: Stepping outside for a walk lets you escape the hustle and bustle of daily life. Breathe in the fresh air, soak up the sunshine (or enjoy the cool breeze), and take a moment to appreciate the beauty around you. Nature has a way of refreshing our minds and spirits. 🌞🍃

Physical Exercise: We all know how important exercise is for our health, and it's no different for our dogs. Regular walks help keep us fit, maintain a healthy weight, and improve cardiovascular health. It’s a win-win situation – a healthy dog and a healthier you! 💪🏃‍♂️

Mental Stimulation: Walking provides mental enrichment for your dog. They get to explore new sights, smells, and sounds, which keeps their brain active and engaged. This stimulation is crucial for their overall well-being and happiness. 🧠🔍

So next time you're thinking about skipping that walk, remember all these fantastic benefits. Your dog will thank you, and you'll feel great too! Let's make the most of these moments and enjoy the wonderful world we live in together. 🐾🌍

Okay...so your dog flips out when he hears a knock at the door or the dreaded doorbell 😖

Now you're wondering, why. He didn't use to do this and it is getting out of hand. And to be honest, it is embarrassing!

How did this happen?

Yes, it is true that some dogs are being protective of their home. But that's not the only reason.

Guess what...WE taught our dogs to get excited about the door 🤦‍♀️

When we hear the knock or bell, what do we do? We get up and quickly go to the door. There may be a friend at the door or a package or food. WE are excited. Your dog is excited. What do dogs often do when they are excited? Bark. Jump. Run around....

Now here is the good news. We can teach better and healthier manners when someone sounds the door alarm.

Whether you are starting with a puppy and working on creating these habits right away...or you are like most of us and your pup needs some extra help learning these new skills, I am here to help you.

Are you ready to tone down your four-legged hype man 😉

When we are dealing with a dog who is barking and lunging at other dogs on leash, it is a common practice to try and teach our dogs to sit quietly and look at you while the other dog passes.

Once the dog passes, your dog jumps up from that quiet sit position and lunges in the direction of the other dog, despite how far away they are.

Or you are busy shoving treats in your dogs mouth while simultaneously trying to block their view with your body. You're holding that leash so darn tight because if you give your pup any loose leash, they will push past you to lunge and bark at the other dog.

All you really want is to enjoy a nice walk with your pup. Your reality is that now, when YOU see a dog, you immediately get anxious before your dog has even reacted. No joke, it's as if you have secondary PTSD from your dogs reactivity.

Each walk you take, that vision of a casual relaxing walk creeps further and further from being possible and you just accept that this is how your walks will be.

Nah, that BS! I've been in your shoes. Before I became a dog trainer, I adopted a very reactive German Shepard. My kids were small, one still in the stroller. My walks were frustrating and potentially dangerous when trying to keep the stroller upright while holding onto a large powerful reactive dog. Not to mention the bone chilling fear I felt when we encountered an off-leash dog.

I get it!!! I didn't know what to do either back then and reaching out for help was truly priceless. Now, with over 10 years of being a professional dog trainer myself I can, not only resonate with how you feel, but I can help you get that casual walk you thought was not in the cards.
