It’s a Golden play day! Service dogs - Echo, Ginger & Titus!
Board and Train Buddy and Shiloh did excellent downtown and around joggers! They are thinking about joining CrossFit!
Board and Train Remington! Remington is a happy guy with a lot of energy! Remi needed to learn proper behavior, impulse control and obedience. He loves to work though so it was a lot of fun to train with him! Remi spends a lot of time at his dads business so learning to stay in his place with people coming and going was very important. Watch his video to see for yourself but we can officially call him a Riedel K9 Rockstar!
Board and Train Nyx is a sweet girl and a Riedel K9 bred dog! She loves to train and please her people. Nyx needed to sharpen up her obedience, correct her dog reactivity and learn impulse control. She has been a super star and we know she is going to enjoy her new found freedom and adventures ahead with her mom. We’ll miss you girl but we are proud of you!
Board & Train Finn!
Finn did not know much when he arrived. He pulled in the leash, jumped, nipped, got overly excited, dug, and had no impulse control.
He is a lucky boy though and found a Mom that invested in him so he could have the best life. He did it all with a happy heart though. Now he is a happy gentleman!
He learned his obedience commands and proper behavior. His video speaks for itself. Look at the good boy he is now!
We’ll miss your waggy tail Finn but know you have fun times ahead! Well done, Finn!
A little sneak peek of Finn at the mall!
Good job Board and Train Finn!
Board and Train Kaiya! Kaiya came to us to sharpen her obedience and work through fear aggression and confidence building. Before training she could not go anywhere without barking, growling and lashing out. Now she is calmly walking around crowds and the busyness of life without a single protest!
Well done, Kaiya!!
Board and Train Holly! Holly was so much fun to train with. She loved training and pleasing you. She is probably the sweetest Dutch we have worked with. When Holly came for training she didn’t have any impulse control and needed to learn obedience and to stop chewing items she was not allowed. Her mom and dad brought some of her favorite items to steal, now we can’t get her to touch them. She is very smart and learns quickly. Holly was also on medication to calm her, we have weaned her off and taught her proper behavior and using her obedience to control her now. She’s still a working dog and requires exercise but she is not destructive! We’ll check Holly out for yourself, she doesn’t even need a leash anymore. You’re the best Holly and we will miss you!
Board and Train Dante not only has looks but he has brains too! Dante arrived struggling with impulse control, heeling and recall. He really wanted to call the shots and do his own thing. Dante is a new man! Not only does he listen but he gets to enjoy so much more freedom now. Even for a walk in the woods he checks in, doesn’t wander far and comes when told. Squirrels and chickens running around mean nothing! Just in time for spring and new adventures with his Mom and Dad. Well done, Dante!!
Check out Board and Train Luna! She is mastering her stay!
Board and Train Vinnie! When Vinnie arrived he was dragging his owners family member through the door because she could not walk him. She was also bleeding and we had to bandage her up from him jumping all over her. Vinnie didn’t have any obedience or manners. He jumped on everyone and when he set his mind to something that’s the way it went. Well look at Vinnie now! He heels, sits, downs, stays and recalls. He is a total gentleman going through doors, meeting people and going out in public. Vinnie we are so proud of you and know you and your mom are going to enjoy each others company now!
Board and Train Dante’ has a lot of prey and herding drive so this is a great challenge for him. He did very well!
Board and Train Cookie! Cookie had some aggressive behaviors, needed to learn obedience and boundaries and confidence building. She has come a long way and is a sweet girl once she gets to know you. She is heeling beautifully, knows all her commands and is not bothered by strangers or dog’s passing by. Here’s a little video of what she learned. We can’t wait for you to go out and explore now with your Mom and Dad, Cookie!
Board and Train Bailey! Bailey is a fun fella with lots of energy to burnnnnn! He LOVES training though and is eager to please! Bailey needed to learn and sharpen his obedience and impulse control and prep to possibly be a service dog. He did a lot of confidence building too. Bailey is going to bring lots of joy and love to his family not just at home now but out and about enjoying life!
Board & Train Indigo! Indigo has a lot of energy. She needed to sharpen her obedience, control her energy and impulse and work on dog reactivity. She put a lot work into her training and has come so far! She is heeling and staying and controlling herself and working in close quarters with other dogs! We don’t think we’ve ever seen a dog love their mom as much as Indigo so we know they will have a lot of fun going places now! Way to go pretty girl!
Service Dogs In Training, Echo & Nova have begun training on escalators !
Board & Train Luta!! Luta was highly reactive to other dogs, some people- especially from behind, needed impulse control and sharpening her obedience. She has been an excellent student and is a rockstar now! Luta loves her outings now and even enjoyed her ride on the cart (just for fun!) We’ll miss her but we know Luta and her family are excited to start new adventures together. Just in time for spring!
A little goodbye play with Bear before he leaves. When we met him at the vet a few months ago he wanted to eat us.
Big Teddy Bear, Board & Train Odin! Odin arrived with very little obedience, environmental confidence concerns, some toy hoarding and no impulse control but you would not know it now! Odin is a champ! He loves going out now too. He heels perfectly, listens to his commands, controls himself and does it all with a smile. We’re so proud of him. Odin has some hip issues so we had to be careful not to push him too much but you would never know by his willingness to please you. He is ready to show off his skills!! We will miss you, Odin.
