Molly the Bernedoodle and
Enzo the Australian Shepherd
When Molly and Enzo first arrived a little over a week ago, both were filled with fear. Enzo had even nipped at someone and attempted to bite. Neither had much confidence, and the only command they knew was sit.
If given the chance, both likely would have bolted, unsure of themselves, uncertain of the world around them, and without an outlet to fulfill their natural instincts.
That’s where I come in.
They began a board-and-train program with me, and my first goal was simple: build trust. Before obedience, I focus on connection, creating a bond and helping each dog feel safe enough to explore who they are. By allowing them to do what they naturally enjoy, rather than constantly directing them, they began to open up. They started to find themselves.
Today, we see two dogs living harmoniously playing off leash, wagging their tails, and enjoying life with growing confidence.
My goal isn’t to have them follow a treat in circles or stare at me for approval; my goal is to change how they feel about themselves, about others, and about the world.
This video shows the progress we’ve made in a short time. There’s still work ahead, but the transformation has already begun.
Go Molly ringwald Go!!!
Go Endzone Go!!!
