Ready to see real changes?
Transform Your Dog’s Behavior and Enjoy a Happier Life Together !
Dealing with leash pulling, nervousness around guests, or off-leash disobedience? These common challenges can turn daily moments with your dog into stressful experiences. But imagine if you could transform these problems into strengths!
🌟 From Frustration to Freedom:
⭐️ Leash Pulling: Picture peaceful walks where your dog stays calmly by your side, no more tug-of-war with the leash.
⭐️ Nervousness Around Guests: Envision your dog greeting visitors with a wagging tail, not anxiety or barking.
⭐️ Off-Leash Challenges: Imagine the freedom of letting your dog run free, knowing they’ll come back the moment you call.
These aren’t just dreams—they’re achievable with the right guidance. The My Dream Dog online course offers practical solutions that fit into your life, helping you and your dog enjoy a more harmonious relationship starting now!
Ready to see real changes faster than you will see them on your own?

Transform Your Dog’s Behavior Starting Now! ! 🐾
Is your dog overly excited when guests arrive or anxious around new people? Whether it’s barking, jumping, leash pulling, or even showing signs of aggression, these behaviors often come from one root cause: anxiety.
Imagine solving these challenges in just a few days or weeks by using a proven process that addresses anxiety at its core. You’ll help your dog become calmer, more obedient, and finally overcome:
✅ Anxiety and nervousness around guests
✅ Barking, jumping, and difficulty settling when people come over
✅ Excessive pulling and reactivity on walks
Don’t just wish for change—train for it! 🚀

Helping your dog feel less anxious is the root to many behavioral problems like-
🌟 dogs who bark or jump excessively when people come over,
🌟 dogs who become nervous when people come over or potentially even show signs of aggression
🌟 pulling on leash, barking, and lunging at other dogs or people out on leash
You can solve these problems often in a few days or weeks just by committing you and your dog to a process that will give you the skills necessary to resolve the anxiety, and therefore all of your dogs current training issues;
like problems when people come over the house, or excessive pulling or reactivity on walks

Hubble did amazing today!🤩
I wanted to make a point to talk about what people might perceive as inconsistencies in training, and just remember, remind people that our dogs fluctuate on a daily basis as well, just like we do!
So if you’re ever feeling behind or like things aren’t going well on a certain day, take a break and come back to it on a better day. I promise your dog will not forget everything they learned!❤️
Very impressed with Hubble today !🤩😍

Loose leash walking -
Allowing your dog to enjoy the walk like dogs do - sniffing and moseying, without any tension in the leash! You always want a soft loop in your leash no matter what. Easier said than done sometimes 😉 training will help you get there so you and your pup can actually enjoy your walks together! 🌲 🐿️ 🐾
Hubble did awesome today! What a guy 🤩 he is seriously such an incredibly intelligent dog😍

Training isn’t just about getting your dog to do what you want them to. It’s a way to improve your overall life, and your dogs’!
I often see health issues with anxious dogs improve with training - it’s that mind-body connection! 🧘
The healthier we are in our mind the healthier we are in our body, our dogs are no different !
Benny’s parents have put in the consistent work and they are seeing the results! Very happy for all of them! 👏👏❤️❤️🐾🐾

Training a dog with leash reactivity can sometimes feel frustrating and it’s easy to feel stuck!
This is the golden rule: 🌟
“Your dog should have vastly more successes and only minor errors whenever you walk them”
As you & your dog improve you can GRADUALLY add challenges
Otherwise not only does your dog expect to have a meltdown every walk, but their nervous system gets geared up for fight/flight every time you go for a walk. They also can lose trust in you if you continuously set them up for a negative experience.
To teach our dogs anything they need to be in a relaxed calm head space, have a relaxed nervous system, and THEN they can actually connect with us and accomplish things together
#mainedogs #mainedogsofinstagram #doglife #lovedogs #rescuedog #rescuedogsofinstagram #mainerescuedog #lovedogs #leashreactivity #dogtraining #dogtrainer
The best way to change your dogs’s behavior is to train for it, not to hope for it to change -
This means having a well laid plan
And also having a plan for when things do not go according to plan !
When you are setting up a training plan, you should always be setting your dog up for success, and minimal errors.
If training is too challenging , your dog will tell you in their behavior - they will have an overreaction, they will be unable to look away from the thing that works them up, they can become more frantic or seem like you cannot get their attention, they often will not take food
These are all signs that your dog needs help, and you need to adjust what you’re doing accordingly to make it slightly easier so that your dog can be successful. Once they are successful at that easier step then you can start incorporating slightly more challenging things.

I love to see boring videos of dogs hanging out together like this 😍
Especially if it’s a dog that previously became over reactive when seeing other dogs on leash !
Ava & her people have done an amazing job getting Ava to be more neutral when on leash seeing other dogs🐶
I often hear clients say their dog is more reactive on leash than off leash, why is this?
Some reasons are…
⭐️ leashes prevent a flight response when dogs become fearful so dogs may feel they have to create distance to other dogs by appearing “big & bad” 💀 - even though they may be just unsure ❤️
⭐️ people are holding the leash incorrectly and tightening it all the time or releasing it in the wrong moments teaching their dogs to overreact 😬
⭐️ your dog EXPECTS to greet other dogs on leash so they feel frustrated when they can’t !
So should you let your dog greet other dogs on leash? I’m giving it a 👎 thumbs down
There is a lot of risk introducing unfamiliar dogs on or off leash and improper handling of the leash will only make it worse. It can also set up confusing expectations for your dog and create a lot of frustration

Sneak peak!
“…The problem with this is that the nervousness doesn’t get addressed and when a dog is nervous they are letting us know they are uncomfortable and stressed by a situation.
Most dogs are more likely to go into a flight response when they are stressed. However, in a closed space (on leash or in a home) flight is often not an option which means that fight could be their only option to creating space for themselves so they can feel safe.
At the end of the day we have to remember that your dog’s behavior is serving a function for them…”

Feeling so accomplished after working with these pups and their people today!
It’s amazing how fast dogs can learn when you have ⭐️ clear communication
⭐️ accurate timing
⭐️ set them up for success 🐾🙌
These are often the key culprits to training success or failure-
If you’re struggling to train your dog you’re not alone! ❤️ This is my favorite thing to teach people and we do it every day!🐾🙌
