E-collar training isn’t an immediate invitation to let your dog off the leash. It’s first a leash exercise and includes building trust and boundaries. The payoff is the happiness of watching your dog run free, safely and confidently, knowing you still have control. With dog training tools, more is possible. And no, you won’t “ruin” your dog. Just check out how happy these three are!
Learning to trust your dog after a bad experience.
If you don’t feel like you can trust your dog, that’s ok! You probably shouldn’t trust them just yet. Trusting your dog takes time and work. Keep going.
It can be tough to see though or understand how your dog can even be changed. We’re vision holders for you. Change is possible, keep persevering. Dog training can look really different day to day and the small things add up.
1 minute with Sarah on saying No. Such a small word is so powerful yet many of us don't use it enough — with our dogs and daily lives. Whether you realize it or not, training your dog can have a ripple effect on other areas of your life.

Stopping barking, jumping, pulling, lunging, overall disobedience and reactivity, it starts with the human. Our programs may be “dog training” but we’re helping you train your dogs. We give you, the owner and handler, better dog handling skills to communicate more effectively with your dog.
Video from the summer archives when it wasn’t 32 and sleeting… those days will return and we’ll be training dogs outside again soon.
The transformation that Finn made was a direct result of the family’s commitment to training. Not only is he a big dog who was unsafe to walk, but he had issues at the vet, greeting people, settling… and now his family is able to have more fun and enjoy their time with him.
We love helping families succeed and build strong successful relationships with their dogs. Finn and his family are a great example of how these transformations are possible! Kudos to the whole family!
Within one hour of leash work, Winston and his owner were able to get a much better walk. Even the strongest people don’t have the strength to pull against a 60+ pound dog. With the right tools to have a conversation with the dog, he was listening and respecting his owner. Over the course of the next four sessions, the results got better and better. It shouldn’t take months or even years to get a good walk from your dog with the right training framework. #balanceddogtraining #capeannma #northshorema
