I use E-Collars and I’m constantly under scrutiny because of it. SO MANY others can say the same.

This tool allows me to have so many amazing experiences with my dogs in a way where it leaves me feeling CONFIDENT ✨

The E-Collar doesn’t have to be for everyone but I love it and just because I use it doesn’t make me or someone else that uses it bad either.
Where s**t goes south is when people miss use it and abuse the ecollar and don’t take them time to teach their dog the skills it needs before implementation. That’s a handler error if they jump the gun. NOT the tool, not the Dog!

If you use a ecollar comment down Below your #1 favorite thing about using it or share some kind words! 🌈☮️

I find myself reminding myself and others to move on from the past. Although that is much harder than it sounds. We tend to get stuck on the past. That does no good for us nor our dogs. Our dogs live in the PRESENT and it’s a beautiful thing.

Our past paves the way for us to have new growth as we learn and gain experience. Dog training is constantly evolving, as a trainer and handler that means I am too and…… so are YOU 🫵🏼!

I used to get stuck on old methods when I was first learning how to train dogs. I would constantly think in black and white. I quickly learned that dog training is more abstract and made of a bunch of pieces that create a beautiful picture! Each dog has their own story and have their own special way of learning. Learning about this opened a bunch of learning opportunities for me and allowed me to grow my training toolbox so I can help more owners and dogs!

I was inspired to write about this after talking with about my ferns. Bethany said something on the line of “sometimes I have to trim off the old growth to make room for the new growth”. Sometimes we need to let go of old habits that are not getting us anywhere to make room for new ones that will allow us to bloom and flourish. That totally goes for dog training and personal development. Sometimes we need to address our dogs old behaviors AND OURS from the past that may not be productive and re condition them/ create new ones that will help them have a bright future!

Honestly I didn’t know where I was going with this post but reading it back now that I’ve written it….. I think it’s a beautiful message! ✨ I hope this inspired you and if it did let me know what resonated with you the most! 🩷

This is a post I wish I would never need to write but, here I am.

Over the course of the last few weeks I have been doing clearances on some of my dogs. Some people agree with these practices and some think it’s not needed.

As someone who places program service dogs, strives to have good ethics/ morales, and believes that the dogs health and safety comes first, I will never intentionally put my clients or dogs in harms way.

Here are some of the reasons I’m so passionate about getting health evaluations;
* How can these dogs help us when they may be hurting themselves
* Placing dogs with health issues is unethical
* I want each dog to have a long and successful life/ career. By doing health tests I’m able to gauge if that is possible both physically and mentally.
* It’s not fair to expect people to pay for a dog with limitations what will shorten their career and potentially life span
* Last but not least I am in the veterinary field and I really value my dogs well being. These dogs are my everything and I want the best for them and their health.
-and more

Far too many organizations place dogs or breed dogs with issues. That being said you can also have really good breeding pairings and things still come up. Or maybe an injury causes a future problem. Heath issues are always a risk and can be caused by many things.

With all of this being said I have to pull my one of my program dogs (Yoshi) from service work. He has very mild Elbow incongruity (common name is elbow dysplasia). It’s likely it could never effect him however it could also cause issues sooner with to much impact.

This is one of those things that you can see issues in 2-4 years, 8-10 years or potentially never. However I don’t think it’s fair to place him as a service dog and it’s a risk I don’t want to take. My orthopedic vet agrees.

Welcome to The Hands and Paws Canine Training Team! 🩷🌈✨

Hey guys!

My name is Kaitlyn and I am the founder of KETrev Media. My love of social media strategy, management, and content creating started from a young age. As soon as I had an iPad, I grabbed my siblings and made elaborate iMovie trailers, vlogged hangouts with friends in high school, was always on the social media team for my college organizations and more. Through sharing my journey with my service dog, Sebastian, I have had the AMAZING opportunity to become a full time content creator and have loved every second of it. Throughout the years I have ran social media accounts for small businesses, lead corporate trainings on how to utilize social media to drive sales, and more so I decided it was time to go out on my own and start my own social media management company. Thus, KETrev Media LLC was born.

E-Collar 101! ✨

The wonderful thing about dog training is that there are so many ways to teach things! The bad thing about dog training is there are so many ways to teach things.

This tool just like any tool can be used in an amazing way and a bad way. So if you want to utilize this tool you have to make sure your application is precise and fair. If you are not comfortable in your abilities to train with an E-Collar, then don’t and wait to higher a professional to help! I’d rather someone not use it if they don’t know how rather than use it and see fall out from not applying the tool in the right way.

I primarily use ecollars for off leash recall and heel work since I do so much travel and hikes. It makes doing those activities a lot more enjoyable for me and my dogs.

If you utilize and ecollar what is your favorite thing about them?

If you’re interested in ecollar conditioning your dog, message me and I can teach you my protocol via lessons!

Follow these 3 tips to enhance your dog training!

I see people skip these steps when training their dogs.

Something I think people need to spend more time on is building a relationship with their dog. Typically a lot of issues owners experience are a result of the dog having a lack of boundaries, poor relationship, and are unfulfilled.

These tips can help jump start the process to repairing or building the amazing relationship between dog and owner!

• What is your favorite relationship building exercise?
•Have you struggled with you and your dog’s relationship?
•What did you do to work on it?

WELCOME TEAM MEMBER KRISTIN ✨🌈

“Hello! My name is Kristin Jackson. I am a assistant dog trainer with Hands and Paws Canine Training, and I am located in Central Florida. The first thing anyone should know about me is that I am all about passion! I love working with animals and training people to foster relationships with their dogs. A good relationship can open the door to so many amazing things.

I have been working with dogs for 6+ years in various professional capacities. From kennel tech to rescue rehabilitation, I’ve done it all! I have extensive experience whelping and raising puppies from the time I spent working hands on with an Australian Shepherd breeder. I am forever a student of the world, and I’m constantly seeking new ways to improve and learn. I encourage clients to do the same by fostering growth and sharing resources in a kind and supportive way.

I love to spend time in nature, hiking and taking photographs. In my spare time I also enjoy a variety of different dog sports, though I am still a novice I am really just there to have fun with my dogs!

I am ecstatic to embark on this journey and to be a bigger part of the ever growing Hands and Paws Canine Training family.”

From Kristin

Kristin and I met about 2 years ago when she inquired about service dog training. After her consultation we started working together over online sessions with her dog Ponyo. Eventually that led to a great friendship. Kristin has been apart of so many amazing things with HAPCT and is very familiar with how I do things so I’m super excited to embark on the journey with her and her awesome pups! I can’t wait to share more soon! In the meantime please congratulate Kristin on this amazing accomplishment! I’m so so happy for her! 🎉🎊🌈✨🩷🌸
