I’m proud of each of my clients, 4 legged and 2 legged for all their hard work learning new skills and progressing them!
So many awesome puppy and owner teams completing their lessons this week, one of which Chicken Nugget Sparkle has finished his puppy private lesson package this week!

Super proud of this kid, Oliver rocked his obedience while running errands with us.
Oliver started his alternating Board and Train with us the beginning of May and now is to the point of going out to other environments as part of his service dog training.
Still have more to do but Oliver is making great progress!

Messing around this morning with one of our personal dogs, Jet.
Jet is a 2 yr old Australian Cattle Dog that was born deaf and he is seriously is one of the sweetest dogs!
Deaf dogs can learn all the same skills as dogs that can hear. Being deaf does not change a puppy or dog’s ability to learn, but it does change how they receive information.
Instead of listening for commands, deaf dogs learn by looking for cues, such as, hand signals and body language, using their sense of smell, and touch.

Even little dogs can learn to walk nicely!!
Jack is a 6 month old Maltipoo and has been doing Private Lessons in his home. Todays lesson was loose leash walking and he caught on pretty quickly to it!

Here he comes!!!
Ambush is 1 1/2 weeks into his 3 week board and train stay. He is doing all the training obedience, learning to settle in the house and be soft around others.
He is a pretty big 8 month old puppy with such a goofy personality!

This was so good for my soul… being able to take my dog Stevie with us on a beautiful fall morning ride. The sound, smells and the sights! This video doesn’t show just how beautiful most of the foliage was.
Fun fact about me is I own horses and one of favorite things is to go out and ride. Especially with amazing trail buddies.
I highly recommend you all take your dogs to the mountains and enjoy the fall beauty! go for a hike, walk, a drive or simply go and sit with your dog for a while.

Maya is back for additional training including off leash obedience.
At the beginning of this year Maya stayed with me for a puppy board and train. Working with her now, she has showed me how well her owner has kept on her training which has helped her progress greatly.
Puppies never come home fully trained. A foundation and skills have been set and it’s the owners who have to continue to work and manage through puppyhood into adulthood.

When you are 10 mins into your lesson and feel it’s a perfect time to take a nap.

Maya here is on her last week with me and so we took her training to a new but somewhat quiet environment to work her obedience and manners.
It’s important to me that when I take a puppy or dog to dog friendly stores that it’s during the slower hours.
I want the experience to be a successful and positive for both of us. I also want them to be able to look to me for guidance and to be successful in what we are working on.
If a store is too busy and both the dog and their person aren’t ready, we risk it being a negative experience for both us and our dogs. We can become stressed and our dogs can either become overwhelmed or over-stimulated as well, which can cause the dogs to not be aware of or respond to us.

Dogs thrive on routines!
If you have a consistent routine you’ll find your dog automatically doing some of things that are apart of their routines.
Every time 4 month old Finn and his Mom walk back in from outside, she has him sit on the rug to wait for her. After a few weeks, Finn now lays or sits on the rug on his own and stays till he is released.
I am pretty proud of both of them for creating this on their own!

Even trainers are still learning and have homework with their own dogs.
Stevie is my personal dog and needed extra desensitization to different things and sounds.
What better way then to involve her in my daily/weekly chores and errand runs.

Anyone else get this excited for breakfast?!
Finn here showing he is getting the hang of his new routine. And by being fed in the kennel, he is figuring out the kennel isn’t such a bad place. 🤗

Anyone with new puppies relate…. Letting puppies out early morning with about a foot of snow on the ground.

Eddie practicing his skills.
Even though your puppy or dog did a Board and Train and came home knowing everything doesn’t mean you stop practicing.
If you don’t practice then much like people, our dogs will lose their skills.

Every dog and person is at different levels in training and learning. Don’t compare yourself to others.
Your training journey is unique to you and your dog!
