Are you wondering why I haven't posted much?

I decided to take the holiday season off this year since business has been slow. I've slowed down this month, spending time with my husband and our children ☺️❤️

I am very excited for what this next year brings (I have some things in the works) but I need new clients to help me reach some of my goals - not just in business but for our family.

I do have a referral program for those who may not know! Referrals earn 1 night of boarding for each client they send here with a training booking of any kind!

Does your dog have a chicken allergy?

It's very common for dogs to have sensitivities to chicken, it is the highest commercially produced animal in the food industry.

Did you know that chicken ingredients could be hiding in your dog's food though? Even if the bag doesn't say chicken in the label (like a salmon or beef dog food), it likely still has chicken in it!!

Check the ingredients of the food you feed if you suspect that your dog still has issues on a food that claims to not be chicken based. You'll want to look for hidden chicken ingredients like chicken meal, organs, and byproducts.

Chicken can also be hidden by labeling general terms like "animal meal, animal byproducts, hydrolyzed animal, and poultry". Chicken is the cheapest meat to produce/raise which makes it an easy way to cut costs on "quality" foods with "different" protein ingredients. But this doesn't help our dogs with issues regarding chicken!!!

Hi everyone!!

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for your support, whether you're just a follower or you are or have been a client!

We all feel the tension in today's economy and with inflation, especially this year. If you've worked with me, I would GREATLY appreciate it if you would leave an honest Google review for me! (And one here too if you feel spunky!) But a lot of my business does come from Google search for local trainers.

Thank you all again, and I hope you'll join me on YouTube as my content keeps growing!

Cleo is in desperate need of a new foster, otherwise she is likely to end up in boarding.

She is an absolute sweetheart, but she can't be around cats. She would LOVE someone who wants to play with her a couple times a day, share in the love she has to give, and give her a warm place to call home until the right adopters come along. You can get information on Cleo from Debbie with Hank's Heroes in Michigan (I can put you in contact) and you will be 100% supported financially if you'd like to foster!

Have you worked with other trainers? Do they ever explain WHY a dogs do what they do?

From what seems like random behaviors, to behaviors that we see from most dogs, everything ties back to genetics and drives.

I need YOUR help!!

As I'm working hard to edit and post almost 4 years worth of content for social media, I'd like to start filming free training tips for future content!

As a new owner, an owner of an older rescue dog, or an owner with a dog that's thrown you for a loop, I'd love to know what simple things you're struggling to teach your dog or have struggled with in the past!

Drop your suggestions in the comments!

The number 1 thing potential clients tell me they need help with is teaching their dog how to walk on a leash!

What if I told you it was way simpler than you think?! Here are the 3 basic steps to getting the results you're looking for, and you don't even need training collars or treats!

I'd like to introduce miss Stella!

Stella is a young Boston Terrier attending private lessons with her mom to address some reactivity issues. To help address these issues we are putting a focus on meeting her terrier needs to satisfy her urge to react to movement (terriers were bred to hunt, catch, and kill rodents) and playing tug or with a flirt pole will help satisfy that need in a healthy way. Stella is also learning her basic obedience skills as well, which you can see footage of on Instagram! Welcome to the pack, Stella!

I am so excited to let you all know that Dottie (now Dolly) has found her forever home! She's been with Terry for a couple weeks now and today they came for a lesson to talk about leash skills and teach Terry how to work with her moving forward!

Dolly has a dog and cat at home as well as Terry's wife ☺️ they are the perfect match for her and I am am thrilled to still have the pleasure of working with her!

Shout out to a loyal client:

You may remember these two who've not only boarded with me in the past, but I've been working with Emerson since he first came home to his owner's home! I even went with them when they met him for the first time at the breeder's house!!

This is why I do what I do - so owners can enjoy their dog's company in whatever adventures they wish ☺️
