Olive graduated from our Puppy Socialization Class on Saturday, please help us congratulate Olive.

Olive had a great time building up confidence in our obstacle courses, learning some basic manners skills, feeling comfortable with handling skills and...Olive told me the best part was playtime with her friends!!

We will miss you in puppy class but we hope to see you again in future classes!

One of the valuable skills we teach in our Basic Manners Class is "Place". The dogs are taught to go to a mat and stay on the mat until released...all without asking them to stay, sit, and/or down. They are taught when they hear the word "Place", they automatically get on the mat, lie down and stay!

In our last class we worked on the dogs being able to stay on the mat while their humans walked away toward a door.

We have 3 Basic Manners Classes scheduled for March and April. Classes are 7 weeks in length for $195.00:

Wednesdays, March 5 through April 16th; 6:30 to 7:30 pm
Saturdays, March 22 through May 3; 12:00 to 1:00 pm
Saturdays, April 5 through May 24; 1:30 to 2:30 pm

We are also starting basic manners classes on weekdays during the daytime hours. If you are interested in joining us, send us an email and let us know which days/hours you are available.

Excellent advice!

It is drilled into our brains that dogs Must be walked daily. Although it is important for dogs to get their exercise, if that "exercise" is only increasing your dog's stress level then taking a break in your walks for a while and using the great ideas in this post will be so much better for your dog...and you!

Give us a shout at [email protected] if your dog needs help with their "big feelings" out in the world!

I think this is one of the biggest realisations that can help people living with sensitive and complex dogs who struggle with things they encounter in the world around them, that the daily walk isn't absolutely mandatory.

Yes, we need to find other ways to physically and mentally stimulate them, but going out into a world they struggle with day after day so that they (and we) are never able to truly recover and return to a real sense of calm is not helping either of us.

Find a secure field somewhere they can run around and explore in safety and both of us can relax.

Do some training at home.

Try some food puzzles (pitched to a level where your dog can succeed with a little work).

Maybe a little bit of fun agility in the garden, or some doggy parkour.

Scentwork exercises around the house and garden (one of my personal favourites with all my dogs).

Anything that exercises body and mind will help to keep them contented and happy while taking a break from going out into that world they find so difficult.

Once we have both had a chance to recharge and de-stress then we can start planning a return to walking in a way that will help our dogs to feel safer in the world.

We are on our 4th week of Tricks Class and everyone is having so much fun! So far the dogs have learned Shake, Roll Over, High Five, Peek A Boo, Crawl, Spin, Touch, and Paws Up.

Tonight we worked on part 1 of teaching the dogs to be able to ring a bell. We have to first start with teaching them how to "hit" something with their paw. Here is Hazel practicing "hitting" a plastic lid with her paw (she is so adorable!!)

Last Call!!! Our tricks class starts this Monday, 1/20, at 8:00 pm and we have one space left for you and your dog! Have some fun with your dog teaching tricks. Email us at [email protected] for registration.

And....they're off! Puppy Class is always so much fun. I think Anyx needs a tumbling class 😆 Our Puppy Socialization Class is held every Saturday morning at 10am. Not only is it the most important class your puppy can/should take but it is also a helpful benefit for you! Everyone tells me their puppy goes home and sleeps for hours while they get to take care of errands!! Puppy Socialization Class is for puppies age 8 to 22/24 weeks of age and is all about confidence building; learning that being touched all over a puppy's body can be a great experience (i.e., handling skills); starting to learn basic manners (sit, down, and come); learning bite inhibition (i.e., don't bite so hard when playing with other puppies or they may not want to play with you); socialization with other puppies, people, places, & novel items; and of course learning social skills through puppy play. Interested in attending our class? Email us at [email protected] for more information and how to register; we are located in Laurel. We are looking forward to meeting you and your puppy.

Thank you to everyone who attended our 2nd annual Christmas Canine Escape Room! We had 33 dogs and their "parents" attend this year! It was so much fun watching the dogs enjoy working the puzzles. Clues were hidden in the puzzles to help their parents figure out the code so they could escape to find Mrs. Claus' shopping bag!! A special surprise was located in the shopping bag. A big shout out to Elves Gee, Marce, Vicki and Cammy for helping during the event. We couldn't have done it without them! If you would like to join us next year, send us an email so we can put you on the email list. It's a great Holiday present for your dog.
