It's that time of year!

Did you get a new dog around the holidays, only to realise that they might need to make a few behavioural resolutions for the new year?
Instead of digging through the internet for conflicting and outdated training techniques, or taking a chaotic and unorganised training class from a big brand pet store, consider subscribing to a training program in which you can receive one-on-one advice from your new personal dog trainer.

Focus Pocus can assist with a wide array of behavioural imperfections, such as:
- Potty training
- Separation anxiety
- Destructive behaviours
- Leash pulling
- Kennel etiquette
- Aggression
- and more!

Lessons start at $50 per hour-long session. All training is conducted in YOUR home (where the problems usually exist), and the lesson plans are tailor-made to you and your pup!

If you are looking for wholesome and sustainable, positive reinforcement-based dog training, you will find the best at Focus Pocus.

Visit our website or send us a message on Facebook to learn more and request a FREE consultation!

UPDATE: Tuffy has found a new home. Thank you so much, friends!

---

One of my students is looking to rehome their puppy out of unfortunate necessity. We are currently accepting candidates for a new forever home!

Tuffy is a maltese-poodle mix, about eight months old. He's neutered and completely up-to-date on all of his vaccinations. He is a very happy, energetic, and family-focused pup. He loves to play with children and other dogs, and is currently practising doing so with some extra maturity.

We believe that his best new home would be one that appreciates his spunky nature and his supermassive problem-solving noggin! He is most well-suited to a home with an (at least moderately) active lifestyle, no young children, and patient, social pets.

Please send me a message if you are interested in learning more about Tuffy and the potential adoption process!

Susan needed a hard-core nap after our outdoor training session this afternoon. ๐Ÿ˜ด

Do your dogs have silly sleeping positions? Post those funny pics of your sleepy pup(s) in the comments!! ๐Ÿ‘‡

Training note:
Susan has been super obsessed with a squirrel who lives in the tree next to us, so we did some heavy distraction training outside while the squirrel chirped at us the entire time. It was hard and nowhere near a perfect session, but it's important to find those distractions and possible training obstacles as soon as possible, and address them quickly!

Is your dog easily excited by other people, dogs, squirrels, etc.? We can help at Focus Pocus! Just shoot us a message!

Management is always the FIRST step in my training process. The most important part in creating and initiating a successful long-term training program is identifying what behaviours your dog exhibits and making the best efforts to eliminate the performance of this behaviour as immediately and definitively as possible. From there, it becomes much easier to begin a regimen of teaching your dog alternate behaviours to the one(s) in which they were previously partaking.

When you start a new diet, it's a great idea to remove all "forbidden" foods from the home to ensure that you do not "relapse" into a bucket of ice cream. Set your dog up with that same advantage, as well!

If you've got questions about your dog's unsavory behaviours and how to stop them, please send me a message for a more in-depth discussion of solutions that we could explore together!
