Scrub a dub dub, one corgi in the tub!

Did you know?

Conditioning puppies early on to be comfortable getting groomed will help them be more comfortable as adults?

Even if they don’t “need” a bath, groom, brushing as a puppy, it’s still extremely important they’re exposed to it frequently with lots of positive association.

That way when they do end up needing a bath, they’re comfortable and confident about it! Less stress for the dog, less stress for you!

Jasper ♥️

This cattle dog x Pyrenees was learning healthier ways to manage his reactivity on walks, fence fighting & different outlets for his energy during those hot days at home 😍

He’s a super smart and sweet man, but has some big feelings & thats ok!

Handsome Night ♥️

He was here for a few months doing behavior modification training and now is training as a police k9!

✨Dexter ✨

This handsome boy is a 7 month who’s hanging out with us for the weekend and learning some leash manners. This boy has learned that pulling until he is coughing will make his parent move faster to follow him so he doesn’t hurt himself.

We played the 180 game to help him relearn that CHOKING yourself is not the way to go. He learned to slip out of harnesses and due to his retained winter body, it’s very easy for him to escape even a well fitted harness. He’s like a slippery fish!

His humans have been using a limited slip lead and we continued our training with that while we change his routine from free fed to feeding measured amounts on a schedule. *He’s being ordered a special ordered more adjustable harness to ensure further safety. Plus, we added getting rewarded with treats, praise and/or toys for the behaviors we would prefer to see!

This is very smart and caught on to the behaviors very quickly. Good job Dexter!

Gemini ✨

This cutie worked on some muzzle conditioning for safe handling at the vet 😍

Did you know? Not all dogs that wear muzzles are aggressive!

Some wear muzzles because:
They eat things off the ground that they shouldn’t
They’re fearful in stressful situations like the vet
Some owners just prefer to use one
The owners are working through fearful behaviors and feel safer with a muzzle

Is your dog muzzle trained? What do you use it for?

🥰 Lenny! 🥰

Another pet feature goes out to this handsome boy! His owners are super amazing and dedicated to meet the needs of this little firecracker of a dog.

He has been working on recall and his owners are learning new fun ways to mentally stimulate him through learning tricks, and dock diving!

His humans also own one of the best pet sitting people I’ve met! If you’re looking for dog sitting in St Louis, I highly recommend! Lenny’s mom helps with my roommates dogs and her compassion, love and understanding for dogs and their special needs really shows.

Way to go Lenny with his training and way to go Lauren with her improved dog skills and knowledge! You two are an amazing team ❤️

Pippin 😍❤️

This parti poodle and his owners have been working super hard and making great strides in his training ❤️

He was surprised with a pup cup and he seemed pretty thrilled!

Little Panda joined her big brother Doc on daily walks!

Hiring a dog walker can be scary! Especially when you have nervous dogs like Doc and Panda, but with patience and lots of treats, they can learn that walks with their dog walker is not so bad!

I offer very limited dog walking services, within a 10 mile radius of me.

If you’re interested, reach out and see if it’s something we can do for your dog!

Geo ❤️

This cute cattle dog mix is one of our boarding dogs! He loves to play, go on walks and snuggles. 🥰

We offer very limited boarding services as most of our time is dedicated to helping pet parents like you with training your dogs! However, we do offer discounted boarding for those of you who have previously done training with us!

Your dogs live with me in our home (no kennel runs), go on walks, hang out on our couch with us, and play in our 6ft privacy fence yard with constant supervision.

Ben and Winston!

Ben is one of my personal dogs that I use as a distraction very often. He’s a neutral, aloof dog that is happy to just exist. This makes other dogs more comfortable to work around and build their confidence and skills because he makes it easier to ignore him!

Winston has been training with us since he was a puppy, this sassy Frenchie now does refresher lessons every so often to keep his skills fresh! Look at his focus on his mom 😍

Dedication, commitment and time truly pays off!

Nellie has been doing dog walks and boarding with us for a few months now and I’m beyond proud of her progress.
She is a rescue staffy/pit/pug mix and went from shy and nervous of leaving her apartment to a fearless explorer!

Her favorite hobbies are zoomies with her human and finding her treats in grass/leaves.

WEDNESDAY ADDAMS

Puppy socialization trips are so important, but make sure to do it in a safe way.

Here are some tips:
⭐️ Bring Treats

⭐️ Keep them on leash and collar or harness

⭐️ Potty your puppy before you go in

⭐️ Start slow! Slow is fast for puppies, give them time to process

⭐️ They do not have to say hi to everyone, reward with a click and treat or a “yes” marker and a treat!

⭐️ Let them explore! Puppy trips are for them to learn and experience a world they’ve never seen before - let them safely investigate new things, they don’t have to walk in a perfect heel through the store

⭐️ Keep the session short - puppies get tired and overwhelmed quickly. If you notice your puppy start losing enthusiasm, excessively sniff and circle (might need to go potty), yawn a lot, lip lick, get extra cranky and mouthy, cower, try to run away, etc these are all signs your puppy is done and very overwhelmed. Try your best to leave before these signs start showing. Best recommendation is about 5 minutes of training at a time

⭐️ Most importantly - Have fun! Enjoy this time with your pup, they don’t stay small forever

Happy Training!
