Duff was such a fun pup to train! 🤩
Duff competed puppy training with @dogtrainerangelica when he was about 12 weeks old, and then came back to us for some off leash training once he hit six months! This once uncontrollable, bubbling-over lab puppy has now become a well-mannered and distinguished gentleman. 🎓
Way to go, Duffy! 🫶🏼
Owner education is the most important part of the job! 🧠📚
Training dogs is our passion, absolutely. But we LOVE showing our owners the ropes and teaching them how to communicate and interact with their dogs efficiently, too. 🙌🏼
Quick session with my personal dog, Vecna, working on a new skill 🧠⚙️
I'm teaching her to come around my body into a heel versus flipping into it from the front, which she has done successfully for over a year. You can see she tries to jump straight to my left side the first few reps (by habit), but she starts slowly understanding the desired behavior through my subtle physical feedback & marking the micro behaviors within the transition. 🤌🏼
When teaching a new version of a known (& well rehearsed) skill, I like to use a reward that's incredibly high value to the dog so I can create the ignition and drive I'm looking for, which for Vec, is this here one-handed wedge. 🧨

Turnover lesson with Milo and Sailor 🐾
We had a great turnover session with Milo, Sailor, and the rest of the Brisson gang. 🙌🏼
Milo and Sailor completed an extensive Board and Train program with us to learn obedience and boundaries; at their turnover lesson, we worked on transitioning them back into the home with their housemate and Alpha-Dog, Captain. Captain had been through training with another trainer a few years back, so he had a decent understanding of the expectations. 🐩
Living in multi-dog household can be stressful, not only for you, but for your dog! Having the proper management and decompression tactics in place helps ensure everyone can live a balanced, happy, and more stress-free life. 🫶🏼

We are still taking on new clients before the New Year! 🎆
Struggling with your dog’s recall? 🙅🏼♀️
Take a few steps back. Grab a leash, some super high value food, and work on creating excitement and ignition with their name recognition first. Once you like what you see, layer on the “come” command. You’ll be surprised how much of a difference it makes. 🐾
Training should be fun for you AND your dog! 🤩
If you’re ever having a rough day with your dog and you find yourself frustrated with their behavior, go grab some of their favorite food or their favorite toy, go outside, and just PLAY! No expectations, no goals… just enjoy the process with your dog. You’ll be surprised how much better you feel after. 🐾

Play is SUCH an important aspect when working with dogs… It can help build a relationship, set boundaries, build confidence, satisfy genetic desires, and physically and mentally exhaust them. 👏🏼
If your dog likes to play, try to implement a couple of these tips next time you play with them! 🎾

Treat presentation MATTERS. An open hand presentation allows your dog to find the treat easily, making for quick and efficient reinforcement! ✋🏼
We think Anjhelika Zertuche may have a future in filming infomercials… what do y’all think? 😆

Rainy day training ☔️
Everyone is working on finding their chill this morning while Mother Lejeune blesses us with her fury 🤣⛈
Passive, relaxation training is just as (if not more!) important than active training! Dogs have to understand when it’s time to work and when it’s time to chill... 🧘♀️

Client testimonial 🐾
Millie(Millie Pickles) came to us all the way from Myrtle Beach, SC! She stayed with us for three weeks for our AdvancedDog board and train to work on general puppy behavior such as over excitability, selective hearing, and not knowing how to relax. 🤪
Upon returning home today, this is what her owners had to say. Have a listen! 👂
