Your life and the lives of your family and friends depend on it

We take a pause from dog training posts today to remind everyone that today marks a life changing moment that we all have the privilege of participating in.

Today is Election Day. And one thing everyone can agree on is that this is the most important election in our lifetime.

Your voice matters and voting is how your voice will be heard.

If you already voted during the early voting period, well done ! And thank you !

If you’re like me and prefer to vote on Election Day you have until 7pm to get to the polls and exercise your right to vote.

Did you know :

✔️ If you’re in line by 7pm you are allowed to vote

✔️ Not registered? You can register to vote on Election Day. Bring 2 forms of identification (one showing your current address)

✔️You can bring handwritten notes into the booth (phones not allowed )

✔️ If you make a mistake on your ballot you can start over

Now let’s hear from all of you !

Did you vote early , vote by mail , or are you voting today ?

🥂ACT is 5 years strong today ! 🥂

5 years ago today Another Chance Training launched in Chicago.

Chance and I had no idea what to expect. We moved here from the West Coast with a few dollars in our pocket and only having each other.

Today , we have the honor of being connected with thousands of families we have trained , a circle of friends and colleagues, and a beautiful community of dog lovers in this amazing city.

Thank you EVERYONE for being a part of our journey, and for your generosity, kindness, and support for a girl and her dog who just want to give all humans and dogs as many chances as it takes.

Looking forward to celebrating with you at our anniversary event tomorrow !

This dog was found in Schorsch Village near Cornelia and Narrangansett. No collar no tags. Must have just gotten out because fur is completely dry. If you recognize this dog please DM.

Please also share this post and let’s get this dog home !

Today is

It’s the perfect day to open your phone , find a person you haven’t heard from in a while , and text them a message just to say hi.

You never know what’s going on inside someone’s smile or …. Inside someone’s silence.

Be kind. Be patient. Be aware.

Text someone. Call someone. Check in on someone.

If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious , alone - know you have someone right here that will listen to you , sit with you , care about you , just be with you.

You matter. You are worth it. You are wanted.

Call a friend. Call me. Call a professional. Call 988.

Your presence on this earth matters.

Due to the majority of ACT families, alumni , and followers either unable to attend or simply not having any interest in this event , we have made the decision to cancel our Champagne in the Park event.

We promise to do better , and plan more exciting events going forward that better peak your interest, so stay tuned !

For now , we will continue to take on the role of simply being your favorite resource for behavioral training with a lifestyle approach in Chicago.

For those of you who continue to support , trust , and cheer us on , we appreciate you !

Looking forward to seeing you in a training session soon!

We haven’t been great about posting lately. Sometimes life is a lot. But here’s Chance and his sugar face dropping by to say he thinks all of you are Pawsome and he hopes you all are having a wonderful summer. He also wants to remind everyone to be kind , be patient , and be there for your neighbors and friends. Life’s too short not to be !

Happy Thursday everyone!

Well someone had to say it ! Are you feeling unprepared to have your dog be included in your holiday shenanigans?

Start inviting people over now to practice practice practice ! Feeling overwhelmed? ACT can help teach you all the above and more !

Meet The Trainer

My name is Shir and I am a certified dog trainer and behaviorist with certifications in canine nutrition. My dog Chance and I met for a reason almost 4 years ago. Together we want to change lives one dog family at a time. Dog training is not about a successful sit, or a shake. Training is a lifestyle. It’s about taking cues that you and your dog learn in minutes and integrating them into behaviors that impact your every day throughout your entire lives you will share together. If the phrase, “we went to puppy class and he learned how to sit, he just doesn’t listen sometimes, he’s stubborn” sounds familiar, or “she’s usually good, she just get’s over excited sometimes”, or....... what phrase do you feel obligated to say out loud when your dog “doesn’t behave”? Your dog is behaving....he or she just doesn’t know differently.

Through positive reinforcement and taking a full circle approach that includes making changes to everyone’s environment, routines, and even nutrition, we take training to a doable and realistic level. And because we make it doable, you and your entire family will not only succeed reaching your goals, training will become part of your every day life.

Every dog and their family deserve another chance. Stop sacrificing and begin compromising. Let us transition you from dog owner to pet parent.

Looking forward to beginning your journey with you...
