Leadership is extremely important when it comes to your relationship with your dog.
Let's talk leadership!
I bought these dog hearing protectors for Herky. Herky is a registered service dog so we take him everywhere we can. In October we are taking him to see Garth Brooks at the Coliseum at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas.
These hearing protectors will reduce the overall decibel level by up to 29 dB and will reduce the sharpness of the high frequency sounds.
He didn’t resist them or try to work them off his head. He seemed comfortable with them on for his first time this morning.
It occurred to me that these hearing protectors would be a positive strategy for some dogs, who are noise averse. These would help with dogs who are afraid of thunder, loud trucks and motorcycles, and other loud noises.
I’m going to add the dog hearing protectors to the recommended products page of my website. Please follow this link if you’re interested. Use the click through link to order from Amazon. It won’t cost you any more, but I’ll earn a couple pennies of commission as an influencer.

This is C**t. He’s a young neutered adult male Border Collie. Currently he’s being fostered by a couple in Sun City AMR. Great dog. C**t came to the foster home as an anxious fearful dog with no training and no direction from his failed first home. He’s had six basic training lessons from DogDude™️ and learned so much and come so far. He has gained massive confidence, learned to trust humans, and look to us for guidance. C**t is an amazing teammate and follower when he’s being led by a great captain.
But C**t’s foster home is experiencing medical issues and need some respite for a short time while they recover.
C**t will thrive best in a temporary home with no children and no other pets. He’s made massive progress in his positive engagement with humans. He’s shown the ability to learn how not be reactive towards other dogs but needs more work in this area. Any candidates interested in helping C**t will need to be able to provide daily walks so that his energy level can be drained each day in a healthy way instead of letting it build up and express itself in undesirable ways.
DogDude™️ will be happy to donate one hour of training to the new foster home so C**t can enjoy continued learning and progress on his way to becoming a great dog for his new furever home.
If you’re interested please reach out to Traci Johnson of Arizona Border Collie Rescue at 602-487-4410.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Protecting your dog's paws is one of the most important jobs you can have as their guardian.
Update: Thank you to everyone for your sentiments. It means so much. My grandma was such a huge influence in my life and so many others. Her family was huge. So many generations of our family knew her. She was much loved and will be much missed. She lived a long and wonderful life. Now she can rest with the ones she loves that we lost before her. She was looking forward to that. We love you Deloris ❤️
📢IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT📢
Shane's grandmother passed earlier today. He and Traci will be going out of town earlier than was scheduled to be with his family for her services. They will be leaving the afternoon of the 20th (this Saturday) and returning to Arizona the evening of Monday the 29th.
If you are on the schedule during this time frame please expect a text from me in the next day or so (depending on when you are scheduled) letting you know if you are good to go or if you need to be rescheduled.
Please allow us some grace and flexability during this time while we make sure you are all taken care of.

Birthday Schenanigans!
Trying out a new taco place in Casa Grande.
Hey hey it’s the DogDude’s BIRTHDAY!!!🎂🥳
Herky and I are so lucky to call him ours. If you see him out and about today give him some extra love! We love you Shane!
This is a very nice, simple and basic refresher of foundational dog training skills and terms.
I LOVE our community! 😀❤️ How great is this….they have fresh filtered water and a bowl in their driveway for the pups! So awesome! Sadie and Bentley say, “thank you!” 😊
We’re always practicing. “Practice doesn’t make perfect, Practice makes permanent.” And Herky was perfection tonight! 🤩 Chase Field, Diamondbacks vs White Sox. Good thing it’s an indoor park because it’s 115 degrees outside. The Uber had to drop us off three blocks from the ball park. Perfect application for protective footwear. Shout out to Sharon Clark for the great seats!
Herks is game ready! Let’s go DBacks!!!! ⚾️❤️
I’m sure many can relate 😂❤️

Meet Aries and Versailles. They are one year old female German Shepherd litter mates. They both graduated from DogDude™️’s Jump Start Puppy Program. They did great and learned so much. Their ability to perform obedience task was very good. But they were adolescent female shepherds, so they had rambunctious, thrill seeking high arousal and intensity behaviors. They both had high fear reactivity outside of the house, whipping each other into a red zone frenzy at all other dogs, all strange humans, basically anything moving in the environment. Even from a football field away. After the puppy program their guardians wanted more than their dogs just knowing obedience skills. They wanted well balanced, fulfilled, confident dogs who know how to make the right behavioral and state-of-mind choices. They wanted dogs who know how to behave like great family members and who allow the humans to be the leaders in the house. So they enrolled them in my Advanced Training: Exercise/Agility/Obedience training program. I intentionally seek out challenging situations for them, carefully managing their exposure to environmental stimuli so they can practice staying under threshold while learning to follow my lead in situations that previously would have sent them straight into the red zone. The bike is one of the most useful tools in this training because I can move at the speed they would normally be able to move at. It’s a highly effective way of teaching dog’s great leash behavior. #germanshepherd #dogtraining #cyclingwithdog #desensitization #counterconditioning #dogtrainer
As part of DogDude™️’s Advanced Training: Exercise/Agility/Obedience program, I very intentionally expose dogs to different levels of distraction in the environmental stimuli so that I can teach them what behaviors we like in that setting. Here, in Safeway with Ruger, a 3 year old male German Shepherd, I’m practicing service dog level obedience. I’m asking him to turn with me and walk with me all in a perfect heel position throughout our time in the store. I’m also asking him to focus on me and not be distracted by the various sights and smells present in a grocery store. I rode my bike while he ran alongside up to the store, and we’ll ride home after. It’s about a five mile round trip. All the while I practice obedience with him in the presence of everything else in the environment. This trains him to focus on his handler and to be ready for any commands when his handler might give them.
Frankie is about 8 months old or so. She and her humans graduated from DogDude™️’s Jump Start Puppy Program. In that program, the humans and Frankie learned how to communicate effectively with each other, in a way that’s meaningful to the dog. The humans also learned how to use their non verbal body language to show their canine leadership skills to Frankie. Frankie, and all dogs, instantly recognize canine leadership behavior when they see it. All dog’s brains are hard wired to recognize canine leadership behavior, whether it’s from a dog or a human. I have an immense amount of respect for Frankie’s humans. You see, Frankie is a miniature Pinscher/Chihuahua cross. Most people who have small dogs don’t see the need for obedience training because if the dog starts misbehaving or going off the rails, it’s very easy to pick the dog up and thereby remove it from the situation, ending the problem for the humans. But the problem with that solution is that it doesn’t do anything to teach the dog what you want them to do in that situation, nor does it give your dog confidence that it knows what to do. That’s why so many small dogs seem to have such problematic behavior. The size of the dog does not matter. If your dog doesn’t receive the message from you that your are an effective canine leader able to lead them, they won’t respect your attempts at leadership when you really need them to. That’s why we practice the leadership skills and the obedience moves in situations where they are not needed, in the smallest of situations. So that the dog knows what to do when a serious situation arrives. Basically it comes down to this: if you can’t lead your dog in the smallest and least important circumstances, there is NO WAY you’re dog will allow you lead them in a high stress situation. When you practice with the dog in seemingly insignificant situations what you want the dog to do, then your dog will already know what to do in a serious situat
Do you have to put your dogs away when the service people come to your house? Can you get your dogs to quickly calm down when you have friends over? I received this text and video from Kelly: “I just wanted you to see all your advice and our hard work make having work people and guests in the house very easy. I had their beds outside because I was cleaning and they still placed and downed. Yeah for my little girls.” Look at Casey and Marlo’s behavior with the appliance repair person in the house. This did not happen by accident. Kelly and Bruce (Casey and Marlo’s guardians) have intentionally shaped (trained) their dogs behavior so that they are capable of behaving this way. Bruce and Kelly didn’t expect Casey and Marlo to be able to perform this complex behavioral routine right away. Instead, they split the routine into its smallest component parts and trained each one of those parts to proficiency, and then “chained” those individual behaviors together into a routine. I’m so grateful that Kelly and Bruce have trusted me to work with them for so long. 3 years now. I started working with Casey long before Bruce and Kelly adopted Marlo. Casey continues in my Advanced Training: Exercise/Agility/Obedience program once a week. And everything Kelly and Bruce have learned by working with me for three years, they’ve put into practice with Marlo. I continue to consult with them on all their behavioral questions with both dogs. If a specific problem behavior arises, we address that as it comes. And this is the result. If you’d like this kind of peace of mind which your dogs when friends or service workers come to your house, reach out to DogDude™️ LLC today! Call or text 623-400-DOGS (3647)
