👀👀Watch as adorable Woody perfects his loose-leash walking skills! Woody hasn’t had the easiest start to life, he was one crazy dog when he arrived at Waushara County Animal Shelter in late 2023. We haven’t practiced loose-leash walking a ton, Woody just loves to train and makes it look easy 😂 If you have room in your heart and home for this loyal dog, please contact WCAS.

👀Introducing my ADORABLE friend Heidi! Heidi absolutely loves everyone she meets, she has a real zest for life! Heidi has difficulty being able to calm herself when she’s around people, she gets super duper excited! We’ve been practicing things like impulse control, going to “place” and today we even played a decompression game! Heidi’s made amazing progress already and I look forward to posting another update on her soon!

(After attending 3 class sessions)

I'm seeing a huge difference in our training now that we are "speaking the same language." Most of it is training me, to be honest 🙂 This morning Larry did a loose leash walk for an entire block past a house that normally is very distracting for him because there is a fenced yard with two large dogs. It was a big deal! Even when they are not outside, he is usually pulling and getting very excited. Thanks again and have a great holiday!

“Leave it” is one of the most important behaviors you can teach your dog. Once your dog is familiar with the cue, I encourage my clients to practice this crucial tool anytime your dog is going towards something you want him to leave, including: garbage, animal p**p, debris, dropped medications, glass etc. Generalize and strengthen the cue to eventually include leaving other dogs, cats and people alone.

🌟🌟Watch as Crystal and Isabel work with their adorable pup Trip on “leave it,” Trip knocks it out of the park!

A great read for my clients with dogs 0-3 years🐾

PSA: Your puppy is not an ADULT DOG until they are 2 or 3 years old! Some breeds mature slower, some faster, but your dog still has a LOT of maturing to do after puppyhood has past.

I often meet people who expect A LOT of their young dog as soon as they're done teething, or they're fully potty trained, or they reach 6, 9, or 12 months. They think "Okay, puppyhood is past. My dog is now an adult" and start to ask the dog for a TON of obedience, or they expect their young dog to be less playful or to rest more quickly.

And while I understand where this is coming from, I urge you to think twice and give your dog some grace!

After puppyhood comes ADOLESCENCE. Adolescence in dogs, just like in human kids, is a tumultuous time where the brain lends itself more towards impulsivity and "act first, think later" behavior. This stage may last up to 2 or 3 years for some dogs, and when they are in the thick of it during adolescence they literally DON'T have the emotional regulation in place to make good choices as much as we'd like them to.

Dogs at this age benefit greatly from even MORE patience, and the opportunity to continue regular socialization time with their peers (just like it's NORMAL for human teens to be around their friends a lot!). Dogs this age need to be set up for success just as much as young puppies, even though they may start to LOOK like adults.

Please, your dogs are only young once. One day you're going to be looking into the soulful eyes of your 13 year old senior dog and wishing you could have their puppyhood and adolescence back. Don't rush your dog's growing up.

Adorable Dave loves to hear the sound of his own voice, as cute as he is, his barking can be a bit much! Did you know many dogs find barking reinforcing for a host of reasons! One of the ways we’re helping Dave with his exhuberent demand barking is by putting “Speak” and “Quiet” on cue; watch a clip below from his first session working on these fun behaviors. Dave is such a smart boy!

**Dont mind the neighbor’s dogs barking in the yard next door, good distraction training 😅**
