Here’s Obi! A 7 mo old Lab/Heeler mix who is going through a phase of arousal and overstimulation causing jumping/nipping and biting towards his owner. Educating owners with strategies to manage this behavior and give him fundamental lessons inside the house helpful to provide the support as he matures. A handful at times but a great puppy!

Here’s Jobi! A 3.5 yr old Australian Labradoodle who continues to bark at the front door and window when other dogs are passing, demand barks for attention and unable to settle fully. Educated owners on ways to set better boundaries, reduce access and build in alone time for decompression and rest. Seeing all of his improvements over the past 3 years has been amazing!!

Here’s Bennett! A 6 mo old Mini Golden Doodle who is learning basic fundamental puppy skills including separation training, arousal control, fear and anxious behaviors, pen training and loose leash walking. He is doing great and educating owner on priorities in training and helping her focus on life skills that impact her daily routines most! Looking forward to seeing his progress grow!!

Here’s Georgie! A 1 yr old Pug/Terrier mix who is friendly to other dogs, loves to chase rabbits and squirrels but has reactions to men inside his home until he feels more comfortable and supported. Educated owner on strategies to ease his anxiety and provide clear leadership for him to succeed! Looking forward to seeing his progress!!

Here’s Maxx! A 7 mo old Bolognese who is growing up and continuing to push boundaries, expand his freedom, improving his sleeping habits, managing his sensitive tummy and finding more ways to keep this curious George busy and satisfied. All of this amidst renovations to his home and random contractors! Maxx loves all people and is always the center of the party!

Here’s Paddington! A 14 week old Golden Mountain Doodle who is learning basic puppy skills with his new family. Educated owners on establishing consistent protocols to manage demand barking, jumping, nipping and a host of other unwanted puppy behaviors. Teaching them how to respond, teach and lead differently was key to improving their leadership and focus on prioritized skills. Looking forward to watching his growth and development!

Here’s Keagan! A 9 yr old Golden who at times has leash reactivity on walks. Educated owners on ways to utilize his favorite rewards to establish better practices to ease his arousal and desensitize with proper distance and work. Managing boundaries better at home also will help to regulate his general demands and improve overall leadership!

Here’s Winnie! A 7 month old Toy Poodle who is learning how to be separated from her owner to develop greater confidence and progression of alone time. She has travelled from Italy to her new home and has grown very attached but now working more at a formative time in her development. Owner hopeful to see the potential based on our exercises and plan!

Here’s Jerry! A 7 year old Lab who is new to his forever family and has been adjusting to his fear of stairs, entryways, loud noises, his harness and even the hallway. Educating and reassuring owners to slow down their expectations and establish good routines will help him find solutions over time. Jerry’s a great dog and is making progress each week with proper support and guidance.

Here’s Bowie and Yamper! Bowie is a new foster and guiding family on how to establish better management and communication of him when greeting new guests and interactions with the other dogs and also a senior chihuahua named Sophie! Also reducing access and potty accidents another key part of their containment of Yamper during times of rest and departures. Exciting to see new dynamics in their family of a cast of characters!

Here’s Bailey! A 5 yr old Black Lab/Pit mix who has anxiety on the car and left alone. She is also reactive on leash making walks difficult and stressful. Educated owner how to change her relationship to Bailey and set clear boundaries and skills to reduce her arousal and expend mental energy in the process. This will set a good foundation when layering leash management communication. What a sweet girl!

04/12/2024

Here’s Kirby! A 2.5 yr old German Shorthaired Pointer/Retriever/Doberman mix who has recently become more challenging on pack walks, persistent barking and conflicts with other dogs at the dog park. Educated owners on how to set better boundaries and leadership at home so Kirby’s arousal and focus are directed towards learning and compliance to ease his energy and expectations. He did great and the family feels encouraged moving forward!

03/12/2024

Here’s Otis (4) and Banjo (14 mo)! Educated owners on how to manage Banjo’s impulsivity and jumping upon greetings as well as managing his arousal around resources and stimuli. Banjo loves taking things from his brother and teaching him ways to stay calm allows for a calmer home and better walks. Increasing leadership with a calmer and consistent approach key to his learning and connection.

Here’s Walli! A 5.5 yr old Havanese who becomes reactive when visitors come to the house and nip when under stress. He also has a hard time near elevators and other dogs or in social situations.

Walli did great when supported in the right way and changing their approach to his learning and emotions.

Here’s Bodhi! A 3 yr old Chihuahua mix who barks at people in his apartment complex, around and inside the elevator when spooked and in the lobby as well as the exit to the street. Educated owner how to teach, lead and motivate him to work under threshold to change his association to make managing these stimuli easier and more rewarding. He did a fantastic job and looking forward to hearing great progress!

My dog Chewy (6) developed a mysterious growth on her hind leg 6 weeks ago and it rapidly grew to the size of a tennis ball. It was diagnosed as a cancerous tumor (hemangiosarcoma) and further testing confirmed that it had not metastasized to other areas of her body.

Due to its aggressive nature and severity, it was determined that amputation was the best treatment to eradicate the cancer and give her an increased quality of life.

I cannot thank Dr. Konz, Dr. Heidi, Amanda and the entire team at Maple Leaf Pet Corner enough to expedite her care and surgery (just 5 days ago) and be so patient with a challenging dog (her fear of vets) under these circumstances.

You have given her freedom from the pain and transformed her trust as well as giving me a chance to enjoy her companionship for more years to come.

Ninja and Pookie love her big sister and are happy to see her back home getting stronger and thriving every day.

Much to be grateful for…..

Here’s Nellie! A 2 yr old Australian Cattle Dog who has made great strides in learning to manage her reactivity inside the house with new owner strategies to various triggers as well as her demand behavior at times. Creating intentional time for separation has also increased leadership and reduced worry. So great to see her everyone thriving!

25/11/2024

Here’s Goose! A 4 yr old Boxer who has high prey drive towards rabbits and cats, reacts to dogs on leashed walks but is not food motivated. Educated and worked with him to then take food very well and learned to work and be motivated with his new leadership strategies. Owners excited to work with him to desensitize and change his association while supporting him under his threshold. Looking forward to positive change.
