Clyde is more independent than his sister and has no problems exploring the farm. So we worked on stopping and returning on recall today.
22/03/2024
Worked on recall with Ruthie and then got experimental. From day 1 this girl has had a special temperament and with her size I decided to try and teach her to brace or “stand” for balance help. As usual she performed without problem. She did give me a few looks when I kept dropping to the ground while walking her to test it out. I’ve always wanted to do this with a dog but she’s the first I’ve met even amongst my own that has the size and temperament together to try it.

Clyde and Ruthie learned “Leave it” and started leash manners with “Heel”. These two are my first two dog home client. They get trained back to back. Because of that their heel command looks a little different. Clyde is learning to walk on the right and Ruthie is learning a traditional left side heel position. This is a new one for me but one of the reasons I love what I do. Every dog is different like a puzzle. I learn new things from them just like they learn from me.

It’s not all obedience.

Rain learned “leave it” today and worked on not pulling hard on the leash when she sees things while walking. She’s getting there.
09/02/2024
This happy guy is Gus! He worked on his impulse control and learned that “placing” on the bed and waiting patiently brings good things like being petted and cheese.
02/02/2024
Lady learned “leave it” and “watch” today. And in her usual casual manner aced them both. I did learn she doesn’t want to be an agility dog though. Always fun to get the chance to play when I can and see what dogs are willing to try for me.
24/01/2024
This is Rain. She’s a 1 year old schnoodle and she started her obedience lessons today.
29/12/2023
Last training session of the year! Heel as position-heel as recall-walking heel. It’s a process and Lady is picking it up quickly as well as learning to sit at heel when I stop moving.
22/12/2023
Lady is absolutely rocking the “wait” command and learning to both be released from her crate and to relax in it while she’s at home.
15/12/2023
It’s not an exaggeration when I say training with me is different. Lady is unfazed by the animals. And she learned place today.
08/12/2023
Newest client started today. It might not always be playing with puppies but do what you love and you won’t work a day in your life is true after all. This is Lady. She is a 3 month old Bernedoodle.

It’s and while I don’t do it often for clients training a dog to use its nose is my favorite thing to do. There’s nothing like it. If it produces a smell a dog can be taught to find it. The canine olfactory sense is unmatched for a reason.

Boarding Gypsy this week. Let me tell you how cool it was to have this girl lay her head on me. I don’t take the trust people put in me lightly. But I also don’t treat the trust of a dog as if it means nothing either. It’s been a few weeks of training and I’ve gotten plenty of excited swipes of her tongue on my hands and once on my face when I wasn’t quick enough to move. But this is the first time she’s initiated physical contact like this. She’s definitely opened up and it’s been very fun to see this side of her while she’s here.

Establishing a heel position with Gypsy.

Generalizing the place command with Gypsy. She’s come out of her shell and is happy to oblige requests made of her.
23/07/2023
Gaining the trust of a dog like gaining the trust of people takes time. Especially if the dog isn’t a puppy. Riff is here for boarding and has decided I’m safe. For context in the time I’ve known this dog I’ve been to his house multiple times and he’s been here for training, but this is the closest he’s ever gotten by choice. This goes beyond just letting me touch him and taking treats. This is why I don’t force dogs to respond to me when they are here for training. I let the dog learn that I’m safe and they don’t have to fear me. I don’t like being forced around strangers and I’m not going to force myself on a dog. The results aren’t instant and it takes work that often looks boring and quite honestly like I’m just sitting there watching a dog. But I get results.

Gypsy learning “place” today.

Gypsy learning to wait at open doors today.

This fluffy monster still has it. Had to have a little fun with him while he’s here with me this week. “Guard” and “Bark and hold”. Yes that is a bucket lid. He will guard whatever he’s told. I actually started that with him when he was puppy during his raise and train using an oil pan that became kids toys or whatever I threw down and gave him the command to guard. The slobber is a nice touch though. He’s big but he’s a baby. Even if he looks like he’s foaming at the mouth.

Abbie working on her impulse control and not exiting open doors until told.

Abbie learning that the place bed is fun today.
11/05/2023
This sweet girl is Abbie. She worked on walking politely on a leash today and gave all the love while doing it. Love my job.
21/02/2023
The love of a “place” is one of the first things I teach my own dogs and client dogs. I start with just throwing food on the bed when the dog decides to get on it and explore and eventually work my way to the dog understanding that the bed is a great place to be. River uses this particular one in the dove field. Like the crate this isn’t a punishment. In fact I didn’t even put her on “place” she put herself there and is currently asleep. If your dog goes crazy when guests come over or when you are eating the place command is a great one to teach and keep your dog out of trouble but not remove them from your company.
16/02/2023
I leave the dogs crates open so they can get in them whenever they choose to do so. River decided hers wasn’t big enough and got in Liberty’s. They aren’t torture devices. They aren’t evil. When accustomed to them dogs see crates as nothing more than a safe space and a personal getaway. Crate train your dogs. You and the dog will be better off in the long run.
04/01/2023
Many people find crates evil. One of the first things I will tell you if you approach me for training especially if it is a puppy is to crate train the dog. A crate is an invaluable tool. No more cruel than a leash. Use it as needed. It keeps puppies and dogs from getting into trouble or starting bad habits when they can’t be watched. It is a safe space. Should you ever need to evacuate your home most shelters will not allow pets that aren’t behaved and crates trained. River decided to go get in hers while I was feeding pigs and chickens. She has my whole bedroom to relax in even the bed. She chose the crate.

The beauty of this profession is that every dog is different. I get a new puzzle to put together with each new dog. I learn from them as much as they learn from me. Thanks for trusting me with your four legged family members.

Place outside the 10x10 with more distractions for Clyde and Ruthie today.
Stop and Recall with Clyde
Clyde is more independent than his sister and has no problems exploring the farm. So we worked on stopping and returning on recall today.
Worked on recall with Ruthie and then got experimental. From day 1 this girl has had a special temperament and with her size I decided to try and teach her to brace or “stand” for balance help. As usual she performed without problem. She did give me a few looks when I kept dropping to the ground while walking her to test it out. I’ve always wanted to do this with a dog but she’s the first I’ve met even amongst my own that has the size and temperament together to try it.
Gus working his recall and learning that coming back doesn’t mean the fun stops. #doodle #dogtraining #dogtrainer #buildabond #birchwood #tennessee
Clyde and Ruthie learned “Leave it” and started leash manners with “Heel”. These two are my first two dog home client. They get trained back to back.

Ruthie and her best friend Clyde both started training today. But Facebook doesn’t allow photos and videos in the same post. “Place” was the command of the day and they both took to it quickly. #dogtraining #dogtrainer #birchwood #Tennessee #doodle #buildabond
Rain learned “leave it” today and worked on not pulling hard on the leash when she sees things while walking. She’s getting there. #dogsofinstagram #dogtraining #dogtrainer #birchwood #tennessee
Sit to greet and learning to be neutral and relaxed around small animals. Thankful for clients that don’t think I’m too crazy when I do things like this. It really isn’t an exaggeration when I say I training with me is different. #schnoodle #dogoftheday #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogtraininglife #impulsecontrol #gooddog #methodtothemadness #birchwood #tennessee
Lady learned “leave it” and “watch” today. And in her usual casual manner aced them both. I did learn she doesn’t want to be an agility dog though. Always fun to get the chance to play when I can and see what dogs are willing to try for me. #bernedoodle #Puppy #dogsofinstagram #dogtraining #dogtrainer #birchwood #tennessee #buildabond
Rain learning heel position and “watch”. The sir and watch wasn’t taught she just offered it naturally so I went with it. Getting a dog to focus on you around distractions is handy and watch is one of the best ways to do so until they learn to be neutral in a new environment and ignore distractions. #dog #schnoodle #dogtraining #dogtrainer #birchwood #tennessee #buildabond
Lady learning her recall and working it around distractions as well as switching positions from side to side and staying in a down when put there. #bernedoodle #puppy #dogsofinstagram #dogtraining #dogtrainerlife #birchwood #tennessee #buildabond

Small Business Saturday! If you have a dog or are getting a dog and you want to enjoy that relationship and not view it as a chore let’s make that happen!
When you have a high ball drive and you know where to find the Chuck-it.
