Happy International Dog Day from Central Ohio Muttessori School! 🐾🎉
Today, we’re celebrating all the amazing dogs that bring joy, love, and fun into our lives! To mark this special day, we’re sharing some of our favorite photos of our incredible clients' pups who have trained with us. Each of these dogs has a unique story and personality, and we’re honored to be a part of their journey toward becoming confident, well-behaved, and happy companions. 💕
Thank you to all the wonderful dog owners who trust us to help their furry friends learn and grow. Let’s keep celebrating our dogs not just today, but every day! 🐶❤️
Share your favorite photo of your pup in the comments and tell us why they’re so special to you!
Training tip of the day - Reasonable expectations!
Just like young humans, puppies do not have the same mental, physical and emotional capabilities that adults do, so it’s not reasonable to expect adult behaviors from them. Learn what behaviors are normal for each stage of your puppies life so you can better understand and train them!
🎉🎉🎉 WE’RE GROWING! 🎉🎉🎉
After five years of taking care of Central Ohio’s dog training needs, we’ve gotten too big for our britches!
We will be adding a second space right by our first (and keeping that one as well!) so we can accommodate more dogs, have more classes and have more fun!
Over the next few months we will be remodeling the space to make it our own. Keep an eye out for progress pics!
Tell us in the comments what you’d like us to offer that we don’t already!

Happy 4th Birthday, Zoe!
Zoe is a Brussels Griffon has been coming to day school since she was just a wee pup!
The dogs who started it all.
This is me, in my senior photos, circa 1997
The dog on the left was Pip, an extremely fearful, undersocialized pup that a lot of people told Tiffany to give up on. The dog on the right was Rebel, an extremely outgoing, intelligent and mischievous dog. These dogs challenged everything I thought I knew about dog training, and forced me to learn a whole new way of doing things. Watching my dogs learn to love training, and becoming a team with them is what made me want to become a dog trainer. All these years later, and I still love watching our clients as their eyes light up when their dogs learn, and seeing their relationship with their dogs grow.
I often tell clients with challenging dogs that those dogs will make them better trainers. They will, I speak from experience.

Check out our DOG OF THE WEEK!
Let's talk about this photo. It's cute, except it's not. I see a dog who cannot get up without telling the child to get off. How do you think a dog is going to do that?
The 7 Golden Toddler Dog Rules:
#1: If a dog walks away from you, you DO NOT FOLLOW.
#2: Always leave room for the dog to walk away from you.
---that right there is 90+% of dog bites eliminated---
#3: We do not climb on the dog.
#4: We do not grab or pull on the dog.
#5: We do not hit or throw anything at the dog.
#6: We do not touch the dog's food.
#7: We do not go into the dog's kennel.
I promise these are not overly difficult concepts for littles, nor will they rob a kid of their bond with the family dog. It will deepen that bond, while keeping everyone safe.
"Oh, it looks like Moose is walking away from you. She is saying she wants a break. Let's play with this instead!"
"It's Moose's dinner time! Let's give her space to enjoy her yummies."
"That is Moose's room(kennel) and only she is allowed to go in there."
"If Moose wanted a break, could she walk away from you right now? No she really couldn't. Let's move away from the play house. You can keep playing but now she can leave when she wants a break."
In conclusion, ***parent your child or your dog will do it for you, and you will not like how they do it.***
DOG OF THE WEEK!
Each dog of the week will come with $100 credit towards training services with us when adopted!
“This is Matches. He is an 8 month old Pit Mix. He is well mannered and does great with other dogs. He also seems to be housebroken already. He came to us with some healing burns, either from boiling water or chemicals. Unsure which, but he is so good that I cannot imagine someone doing that on purpose because he is so sweet. The hair is growing back in and it is darker than his normal giving the adorable impression of cow spots. ❤️”
Matches is available at Ross County Humane Society

The weeks Dog Of The Week is Dixon!
Dixon is a charming senior Min Pin mix with a spirit as youthful as any pup. At a spry 14lbs and with a birthday in April 2014, Dixon’s adventure led him to our shelter after a solo journey that caught the attention of our caring dog warden.
Despite his age, Dixon is bursting with vitality and affection, eagerly awaiting a forever family to shower with his boundless energy. He’s a social butterfly, thriving on human connection and not shy about asking for your undivided attention with his irresistible gaze.
Dixon is a fan of cuddles and doesn’t hesitate to be scooped up into a warm embrace. During office hours, he’s our delightful companion, and while he’s crate-trained for the times we step away, he’s happiest by your side. He’s still mastering the art of ‘holding it,’ so regular walks and a consistent routine will help him perfect his house manners.
In his social circles, Dixon is quite the gentleman, getting along famously with both male and female dogs of all sizes. However, he’s a dog’s dog through and through, preferring a home without cats.
Dixon is available through Humane Society of Madison County

Dixon comes with a $100 credit towards training with Central Ohio Muttessori School!

Our Friday friends did the tape jump! We had so much fun we had to split our video in two for reels. Check out Decim, Stella, and Rosie giving their all on this challenge.
Our day school dogs used their recall and impulse control skills to play this dog trend game! Dogs at COMS always have fun while they are learning. #dogtraining #dogs #columbus #columbusdogs
Puppy class play time is controlled chaos! When we have pups who are a bit unsure about playing with the others, we put them and their owners in pens, so they can interact at a level they feel comfortable. Keeping pups from being overwhelmed and frightened is an important part of building a confident dog.
