One thing I see most owners missing in reactivity training:

🐶 Exposing your dog to their trigger more to “get them used to it”

I know I know you want your dog to get over their fear or excitement quickly.

But practicing the habit of reacting over and over will make your training completely ineffective in the long term AND add more stress over the triggers as well.

Your dog will do best with training by avoiding the triggers until they are ready to train through them.

Which of these tips were you missing? Tell me in the comments!

PS if you want to really work on reactivity, Reactivity Resolved - my program for reactive dog owners - is opening it’s doors next week. You’ll learn to stop barking, whining, and lunging on leash without adding more stress to your day.

Calling all reactive dog owners 👇🏻

I know dealing with a reactive dog can feel isolating, overwhelming, and devastating at times.

Both of my dogs have dealt with reactivity throughout different periods of their lives.

BUT the good news is that there are lots of LOW ENERGY ways you can help your reactive dog (and in turn, you!)

✅ Prioritize quality sleep - this means uninterrupted, deep snoozes during the day and at night
✅ Trigger-free exercise - meeting needs for our dogs doesn’t have to include the things they are scared of (which also decreases anxiety for you)
✅ Adding choice - this can be as simple as letting your dog choose where to sniff or asking them what toy they want for the day
✅ High value treats - this is a super easy change, but bringing REALLY GOOD treats on every walk can help your dog respond more easily and get you out of sticky situations
✅ Take a class for accountability - if you need a low cost, take it anywhere class with professional support, you’ve come to the right place!

My best-selling program, reactivity resolved, is opening it's doors later this month.

✅ 90 day online program for less than $150
✅ Teaches you how to stop barking, whining, and lunging on leash
✅ Short video tutorials to get you training right away
✅ Weekly checklists so you have less to think about
✅ Weekly live calls and text a trainer days for professional support
✅ 24/7 q and a access so that you never forget a question

🍄 Weekly checklists to guide your training session so you know what and when to train from start to finish
🍄 Daily q and a channel for immediate answers via text like having a trainer in your pocket
🍄 Live calls for support so that you can get answers to your pressing questions or adapt the training to fit YOUR dog

Reactivity training doesn't have to be hard. 👇🏻

You shouldn't dread it.

You should find it simple and easy (dare I say boring).

And if you don't - there's work to be done!

If you want to train your reactive dog in only 5 minutes of training per day and get results like...

"He is so much calmer inside the house, and I feel a lot more confident handling him and his reactivity."

"G redirects to me so much quicker and easier when spotting a dog or hearing barking."

"H is showing less fixation time on minor triggers, and disengages noticeably faster."

You'd love my reactivity program (Reactivity Resolved) launching at the end of the month.

And tell me, which one of these situations is your dog? Breed, Fear, or Excitement?

You can train your own reactive dog 👇🏻

These are all the stages I go through in my training to help teach owners like you how to resolve reactivity for good.

🍄 It all starts by supporting health and wellness, and working closely with a vet to make sure no behavior is related to pain or discomfort. We also meet the needs of the dogs including sleep AND prioritize the handlers' wellbeing.

You can't feel better mentally until you feel better physically, you know?

🍄Once the health and wellness are covered, I move on to meeting ALL of the dogs' needs... without triggers.

In human terms - this means self care for doggies.

We can't learn well and do heavy work until we are cared for - the same goes for dogs.

🍄Once those areas were going well, THEN I layer in foundation games and distractions. These are simple and easy games anyone can learn and apply.

The goal of this program is to support the WHOLE dog and the WHOLE handler and make reactivity training accessible to anyone, regardless of age, time, ability, or finances.

And guess what....

I'm bringing every stage of this training program to you for the lowest price it's ever been.

Right in your living room. No matter where you are located.

Sound like what you need?

You need help if 👇🏻

✅ You are frustrated with your dog's scent training.
✅ You are getting lots of false alerts.
✅ You struggle to tell whether your dog is guessing or sniffing.
✅ You are afraid to use blind training.
✅ You want to do things right from day one and save yourself time, money, energy, and heartache.

Hi! I'm Blythe. I am a multicertified service dog trainer and scent detection instructor for conditions like anaphylactic allergies, food intolerances, POTS, migraines, seizures, and more.

I run a low cost, online program for owner trainers to scent train their own service dogs and save $10k in the process.

It's called the Delta Tails Pack, and it is just what you need.

The Pack is my online dog training program for service dog owner trainers to train their own scent detection service dogs without spending thousands.

It is fully online and includes short videos, step by step tutorials, and weekly one on one support from me to make sure your training goes well from day one.

Anyone who wants to scent train their service dog needs this.

I might be a TAD biased. 😉

But it really is everything I needed when I first started training my detection dog - and all the things I wish I had done differently to increase her accuracy and reliability.

I saw a gap that needed to be filled - low cost, high support, flexible professional scent training with up to date, scientifically based and blind focused scent training available anywhere.

And it's served over 200 happy members so far.

But don't take it from me.

Here are a few things my past students have said:

"Before Delta Tails I was passing out multiple times a day due to POTS every day for the last 10 years.
Since joining Delta Tails Apollo has learned to alert to my heart rate and given me days without passing out or getting injured for the first time in a decade.
This program has been LIFE CHANGING"

"I had a really hard time finding trainers in my area that didn't use ecollars or prongs, and I'm so glad I'm able to learn scentwork for service work safely under professional supervision."

"I got connected with them to do scent training for my dog (something that can be done for medical alerts or sport). Blythe is so talented and has so much knowledge! I joined thinking I wasn’t going to stick around long, but now I can’t get away. Their training programs are adaptable towards your pace and they are really helpful!"

"Delta Tails has literally changed my life. I am training my dog as a gluten detection dog under their direction. It would not be possible without them."

Think it would be great for you? I do too.

Service Dog Handlers: how would it feel to be part of a program where you ACTUALLY feel welcome?

In my program:
🍄 There is no shame around struggling to train due to your disability
🍄 No shame in breed choices
🍄 No fake spotting of other handlers
🍄 No cliques.

Instead, what I see in this community is uplifting, motivational, and unconditional support - giving suggestions when asked, and congratulating everyone on their wins.

It’s something I’ve always wanted for myself as a handler, and it’s something I am forever grateful for.

I’ve built this community to reflect the amazing people inside it and what I wanted as a service dog handler just starting out training.

Does this sound like something you need?

Comment below, “SD2024” for a link to all the information in your dms.

We’d love to have you.

And tell me in the comments…

What’s one thing you wish you could find in a service dog community?

02/02/2025

Don't settle. 👇🏻

It's just not worth it.

Not worth the money, energy, time, or emotions.

Someone you settle on without the right qualifications can actually stress your dog to the point of not making it as a service dog. That’s not something you want to risk spending money on, let alone doing to your dog.

Instead, work with someone who you feel confident in. Who works with service dogs and their handlers every day.

Here are some wins my past students have had:

“At a women’s pro soccer game this evening, our team scored a goal. In the midst of the chaos, Apollo ALERTED. I was able to sit down and prevent symptoms. We wouldn’t have made it to this point without your program.”

“We went to a pet friendly mall. While we were there, a big white dog started barking at us, and Sam kept focus PERFECTLY.”

Sound like the right fit for you?

Service dogs don't have to love being pet.

Mine doesn't.

She'd much rather sniff ya and be on her way.

Service dogs do need to calmly tolerate being touched by strangers in order to feel safe in public spaces, however.

But that doesn't mean that we can't prevent the pets on a regular basis.

My favorite method on this list is to wear a mask.

Why?

Because I find it silly that it works, I stay healthy, AND I prevent anyone else getting my germs too.

What do you do to prevent pets in public? Tell me in the comments.

And if you're looking for some training help with your service dog, my program the Pack, was made for you. Comment, "SD2024," for a link with more information in your dms!

19/01/2025

Are you making this big mistake?

Your goal in training your service dog should be rewarding for "looking" at things.

Why?

Because if you only reward for focus, your dog may never see the things you think they have!

If you reward for looking at things, over time, your dog will learn an auto focus without you ever having to teach anything.

Which is what we want from service dogs especially.

It's very simple too!

Instead of treating your dog for staring at you, spend your outings treating your dog for looking at the food on the floor, or looking at the dog passing by, or looking at the funny person in a costume.

It seems scary and not right, but if you treat for looking, you are preventing all of the other behaviors they could do instead AND making sure that they are actually experiencing and learning from the distraction.

Have you tried this with your service dog? Tell me in the comments!

And if you'd like to learn how to train your own service dog like a pro without the same cost of private lessons, comment, "SD2024," and my helper will send you a dm with all the info you need.

One thing I see most owners missing in training recall:

🐶 Using a better reward than just kibble.

I know I know you don't want to add too many calories to your dog's diet.

But recall should only be a few times out of every walk, and rare in the home.

Your dog will be just fine with one nice small treat.

I love freeze dried raw treats for that!

Which of these tips were you missing? Tell me in the comments!

PS if you want to really work on recall this year, my membership, the Pack has a lovely step by step recall workshop to take you through all stages of training a recall - starting out, recalls away from people, dogs, and wildlife, and emergency recalls too!

More tips for busy dog owners👇🏻

Habit pairing is one of my favorite strategies to use from this list, but it HAS to be a habit that you already do consistently. For me, that is eating breakfast in the morning, and brushing my teeth at night before bed.

Now, I train for about 5 minutes after breakfast and brush my dogs' teeth when I brush mine. And all the tools are ready to go near those areas.

Training in real life means that instead of sitting down for 5 minutes to "train," you place treat jars in common areas of the home and practice things while you work. For example, you could work on down stays while you cook dinner, or you could work on settles while you work at the computer.

What tips do you use on your busy days? Tell me in the comments!

PS: If you found this useful and want to learn more about my time saving training, comment, "DTPack" in the comments for a link to my membership that is a perfect compliment to these strategies.

See you there. 😉

Love might feel tricky, but it's not tricky to show your dog how much you care...

Doing your best to meet your dog's needs (specifically their DOGGY needs).

Respecting their no's during cuddle time, with visitors, or even if they don't want to walk.

Recognizing their unique signs of stress and responding to them to help alleviate that.

Advocating for your dog's likes and dislikes with other people, dogs, and even veterinarians. It's okay to say no.

And the biggest one of all...

Accepting them for who they are.

Rarely do our dogs turn out exactly the way we wanted initially. They're living beings!

So it's important to accept the things that make them well... them!

I still struggle with this sometimes, so if you do too, you're not alone.

What else would you add to this list? Comment below!

PS I have a free class to teach you all about the first one and fitting it into your current lifestyle and schedule! Just comment, "Free Trial" to get a dm with instructions to get started.

All puppy owners need this.

I might be a TAD biased. 😉

I saw a gap that needed to be filled - low cost, high support, flexible professional training with up to date positive reinforcement training methods available anywhere.

So I took all the work I do with my private puppy raising clients and condensed it into an accessible, low cost, online program called Puppy Preschool.

Here are a few things my past students have said:

"Rose was amazing during the very long vet appointment. She listened so well during the X-ray that we were able to get it done the same day without medication. We’ve been doing the exercise to prepare her for shots, and it really paid off during her bloodwork. Thank you, thank you, thank you."

"We went to Luna’s first outdoor dining experience today! Thanks to all the work we put in, she just chewed her toy on her mat and ignored everyone walking past us. It was so calm and easy!"

"He was a spitfire from day one and Blythe was my saving grace. She immediately came to my rescue with a training plan and offered so much support! Truly going above and beyond! I proudly can say that I have a nearly one year old dog who excels with separation and being kenneled, and he is fully potty trained!”

Does this sound like something you need for your puppy?

"cry it out" is outdated. Here's what to do instead:

✅ Don't leave your puppy alone until they are ready
✅ Practice daily with separation games
✅ Make shoes, doors, locks, etc uninteresting
✅ Slowly work up to your goal alone time

If you want to work on alone time with a professional who has worked with over 50 puppies, you'd love Puppy Preschool. It's a 60-day online program open now until Monday.

You’ll learn to:

✅Raise a confident, well-behaved dog
✅Potty train anywhere
✅Teach calmness for grooming and vet visits
✅Handle alone time without fear

Don’t waste your time and money. Sending your dog away for training, while convenient, can be expensive, and there are no guarantees of results (or there shouldn’t be). Barking, lunging, and growling doesn’t have to be solved with boarding your dog somewhere else. You can actually do all the training on your own together, and it usually has much better and long lasting results for both you and your pup. You get to learn the skills you need to support your dog, and your dog learns with YOU instead of someone else. Want to give it a shot and have a summer of fun, calm walks instead of stress this year? My Reactivity Resolved online class is FINALLY OPEN! It is a 12 week fully virtual training program to teach YOU how to train your own reactive dog with the support of a pro. It includes: 🍄 Video tutorials for short and easy games you can play to resolve barking, lunging, and straining on leash towards distractions 🍄 Weekly checklists to guide your training session so you know what and when to train from start to finish 🍄 Live calls for support so that you can get answers to your pressing questions or adapt the training to fit YOUR dog 🍄 Daily q and a channel for immediate answers via text like having a trainer in your pocket 🍄 Video feedback on your training sessions so that you can make sure you are working on the games correctly and clear up any confusion And it’s at the lowest price I’ve EVER offered it.

Couldn’t be further from the truth. While certain ways of training might not actually solve reactivity, with the right approach and wholistic care, I’ve yet to see a dog NOT improve while working with me. Here’s what’s so different: 🍄I start by supporting the health and wellness of the dog. You can’t feel better mentally until you feel better physically, you know? 🍄Once the health and wellness are covered, I move on to meeting ALL of the dogs needs... without triggers. In human terms - this means self care for doggies. We can’t learn well and do heavy work until we are cared for - the same goes for dogs. 🍄Once both areas are going well, THEN I layer in desensitization and training games. The goal with these games is not to produce obedience. The goal is to change the underlying feelings of the dog towards the things they are reacting towards. Maybe they are fearful - we work to make it not so scary. Maybe they are OVERLY excited - we work to make it not so interesting. With all three approaches together, I have yet to meet a dog who hasn’t improved during our time together. And guess what.... I’m bringing all that I’ve learned after working with over 200 reactive dog teams to you. Right in your living room. Keep your eyes peeled for what’s to come. 😉 PS don’t forget to follow and turn on notifications if you want to be the first to know about it or comment, “newsletter,” below to sign up for extra discounts and first access. 🤫 #ReactiveDogsofIG #Reactivity #BarkyDogs #DeltaTails #ReactiveRover #GreeleyUnexpected #GreeleyColorado #DogsofColorado #RescueDogsRock #RescuedistheBest #NewDogLife Video description: Blonde

Something I see all the time is that people just don’t realize how much training can do. Training can: Stop pulling, destructive chewing, pottying inside Improve anxiety levels Provide stress free vet visits Teach cute tricks Resolve reactivity (barking on leash or in the home) Fix separation anxiety And so much more And this is why it’s so helpful to work with a dog trainer. We know how much training can do, what needs evaluated by a vet first, and how to customize training best for each individual dog. What behaviors are you struggling with right now or want to change? Leave them in the comments, and I’ll tell you if training can help!

The text reads, “I don’t think people understand that training can do more than just sit, down, stay.”

You can pick up your dog without stress… Even if you haven’t had time to work on it yet. My fellow small dog expert @engineeringoptimismdogtraining made a post earlier this week about the power of predictable pickups! But what if you haven’t had time to train this, and you have to pick up your dog for one reason or another? Enter: predictable pickups for emergencies! 1. Use a cue. This tells your dog what you plan to do. 2. Lure into position with a REALLY good treat. 3. Support their body while you lift. 4. Give them several of those really good treats! This keeps the pick up as positive as it can be while still getting it done for emergency purposes before you’ve had time to train. Remember: use an AMAZING treat for this! Mallory and I are having so much fun collaborating. What questions do you have about small dogs? Leave them in the comments and we’ll pick some to cover soon! 🥰 #smalldogsofinstagram #smalldogproblems #smalldogsrock #greeleyunexpected #dogtrainer
