🐾 Leash Manners with Distractions: Is Your Pup Ready? 🐾
Walking your dog shouldn’t feel like a tug-of-war—especially when distractions pop up! Squirrels, other dogs, or even a leaf blowing by can make it tough for your pup to stay focused. That’s why teaching leash manners with real-world distractions is so important. At West Michigan K9, we work on building your dog’s focus and self-control so walks are enjoyable for both of you. With consistency and the right techniques, your pup can learn to walk calmly by your side no matter what’s going on around them!Need help tackling leash manners? Call us today to get started—let’s turn those chaotic walks into peaceful strolls! #leashmanners #dogtraining #westmichigank9 #focusedpup

🐾✨ Mastering the “Place” Command! ✨🐾
The “Place” command is one of the most versatile tools in dog training, and we love teaching it here at West Michigan K9! With “Place,” your dog learns to go to a designated spot, like a mat or bed, and stay there until released. This skill is perfect for building calmness, focus, and impulse control—whether you’re welcoming guests, eating a meal, or just need your pup to relax. 🐶✨
Teaching “Place” helps dogs understand boundaries while keeping them engaged and content. Interested in giving it a try? We’d love to show you how! Drop a 🐾 if you want to learn more about teaching this awesome command!
