To kongs and puzzles: Yes...AND....

Enrrichment is so much more.

Does your dog need help to settle and chill? Checkout my latest blog post (link in bio!) to learn about what constructive, effective enrichment actually is. (And no, it isn't crazy hard or time consuming!)

Puzzle toys are great. Keep them! Use them! They’re part of the picture.

Just don’t let them be the whole picture.

Your dog’s enrichment should be as rich and varied as your own.

After all, both of you deserve lives filled with more than the equivalent of sudokus and quips about the weather.

Just a couple of spaces available for boarding over Thanksgiving and Christmas this year!

Reach out if your pup needs a safe, secure and fun place to stay. All care is done by myself, a professional trainer of over a decade with extensive experience in working breed and reactive dogs.

We have three main yards for our supervised play sessions, from 1/3 to a full acre, fully fenced. Redwood trails. Pool (if it's warm enough!) Doggie friends or solo time - depending on what suits your pup best.

Dogs should be comfortable in a crate for nap times.

Available dates are 11/20-early Dec, and 12/20-12/28.

My faaaavorite thing that happens here at the training field is watching nervous dogs start to loosen up.

Find themselves.

Feel safe and connected.

And roll in the grass, sploot straight out, or flat out fall asleep 💚

A confidant, relaxed dog doesn't need excessive obedience to exist in harmony in the world.
(Though its useful for communication and brain training!)

From little pups to big Newfandlands - they all need our help and support to get there sometimes.

🌿 Reach out and we can start building a training plan to show your pup how to feel better! 🌿

I hear it almost every day.

"I know the problem is all me"

"I need more training than my dog!"

"I'm so anxious on walks I know their reactivity is coming from me"

"Im so uncoordinated I just cant get the timing or words right!"

BUT you're absolutely rocking it.

Absolutely no one comes into learning something new and being perfect right off. Timing, the mechanics, understanding the concepts of training and behavior modification all take practice.

Reps and reps.

Review and retrying.

I record myself *alllll* the time so I can go back and see where I messed up, could do better or clearer. Bit by bit it all gets easier and becomes muscle memory. And as your dog notices your ease, they can relax and engage more, and show that you can relax too. Its a two way street here.

Just the fact that you're *here* is absolutely rad and your dog is so damn lucky to have you as their person!

Keep it up.
Just a little bit at a time is all.

I'm going to delve a bit more into the human side of learning to handle difficult, reactive or high drive dogs.

I want to break down these things we think to ourselves that put down our skills and show where the real success is
..follow for the rest!

Hi! I'm Heather 😀
(CPDT-KA, CBCC-KA)

I'm a dog trainer who specializes in behavior training, adventure dog skills, and sports.

But also - the human side.

After 11+ years as a professional trainer, I'm here to help you find the most effective training that just makes sense.

My courses and coaching programs are more than just protocols.

It's the skills so you understand your dog, and understand the *why* of our training - so you and your pup can find success in all of life's situations!

Here's a bit of what I offer.

As always, reach out with any questions, anytime!

Let's find the right training path for your pup and you.

Because the goal is a partnership with your dog for their whole life.

There isn't just one set of steps that work to 'fix' reactivity. Dogs need to learn how to feel better about their triggers AND learn how to think AND get help when they need.

I've been specializing in reactivity for a decade.

That's taught me how to balance between behavior modification training, management, and proactive guidance for when your dog needs support.

That's taught me how to read different dogs, and adjust training to their moods and needs of each day.

And, that's taught me the human side - I try to cover a range of learning styles and always glad to adjust for what helps *you* really understand your dog, and how to continue working with them and figure things out on the fly with confidence.

In the end, dogs don't all fit a protocol or system. There needs to be nuance, and a full understanding that they're animals bred for a purpose, now trying to fit into our crowded human world best they can.
