In this off-leash play setting, puppies will build positive associations with other dogs and the valuable skill of relaxing around other dogs. Guardians will learn what positive puppy play looks like and how to watch for signs of negative interactions.

Puppies must be under 20 weeks old to participate and guardians must submit proof of first round of vaccines and negative f***l sample or proof of first dewormer.

I once overheard someone say that I was "trying to kill my dog" after I didn't let my dog say hi to theirs. That seemed a little extreme to me but in my experience people have big feelings about this topic! I often feel like dog guardians take personal offense when another guardian doesn't let their dog say hi because they believe that decision to be a reflection on their dog. I'm here to say that'a not always the case! There are plenty of reasons why someone might not let their dog say hi. It's important to understand these and to respect the choices of others!!!

If you've ever thought that dog trainers have the perfect dogs and probably don't struggle with the same issues you do...think again!!

We recently brought an adolescent foster dog home and oh my gosh is she putting all of my canine knowledge to the test.

If you're working with a trainer or behavior consultant they've probably recommended some level of management. This might be a new concept to you but it's one of the most important when beginning your behavior journey!

We'd love to hear what kind of management tools you're using to prevent your dog from performing less desirable behaviors!
