Walter is making good choices! His default is to charge the fence and bark anytime he hears a neighbor passing, but he's finally learning to calm down and let his world go by without being THAT neighbor dog. Great work, Walter!

I'm so proud of Bowie! He's working on front door manners, and he's just about there! Now it's up to him and his people to practice, practice, practice.

Look, no hands! George and his owner are conquering the skill of good, polite loose-leash walking.

If you wish your dog could walk like this, let me share a secret: he can! Need help? Reach out!

Bailey was practicing long, speedy recalls across his yard this week!

Tucker's first introduction to leave it. I love when dogs kick their head back like that, saying "Ok, I guess I'll sit back and look super cute, then can I have it?" 😄

Work in progress! Anytime he's on a walk, Walter barks at dogs and people and leaves and cars and whatever else he thinks is worth barking about. But that's all changing! Good boy, Walter!

Tucker is learning recall! He is brand new to all obedience, so we're starting from square one.

Bowie is making big changes in his life! He has made a habit of barking, lunging, and whining at other people and dogs on his walks, and he's tried to bite a few. We have been teaching him obedience and building his confidence through structure, and he's learning so quickly! This video is from our last training session. We used the neighbor's garage sale as our setup and worked him through it to walk past on a completely loose leash and with no barking, whining, pulling, lunging, or biting for the first time ever! Keep it up, Mr. Bowie!
Walter's out of sight recall. He can't see his owner, but he still has to go find her. He says these are easy!
Olive is has come a long way in a short amount of time. She's still young (that helps) and her people are willing to put in the work (that helps even more!). This week, our entire session was spent on front door manners, increasing the difficulty so slowly that Olive didn't even realize it was getting harder. This video is near the end, and this is exactly what we want it to look like in real life when a guest comes over. Now that Olive and her people know what to expect, they get to practice, practice, practice!

Willie really enjoyed our training session this week because it didn't even feel like training! If you have a young puppy and aren't doing this sort of walking with him, why not? Puppies need the space to run, walk, sniff, eat grass, and goof off. A safe off leash area is good for this. A 50 (or more) foot long line works too. You can see here Willie is under no commands at all but still willingly keeping up with his people. It's great practice for him and wonderful exercise and stimulation.
