These have been a real hit with the dogs. We recommend having a variety of food rewards when you are building new skills. We also like to use toy and life rewards, too.

What's a life reward? This is a reward your dog enjoys such as access to a great bush to sniff, going through a door, and getting to see a dog or human friend.

What rewards does your dog enjoy?

Does your dog struggle with resolving noises out in the world?

A skill you can implement to help them cope is a food scatter where you "help" them find the goodies together called GO HUNT ( Clothier taught us this).

This is something you start at home so the dog understands and enjoys the game long before a scary noise happens.

For Ty, the dog in this video, he seemed less worried playing this game at the park. Sniffing is his favorite along with tasty treats. The sniffing gives him a job to do with his caregiver and sniffing releases good endorphins that calm the brain.

"Excuse me, I need to p*e." ~ Dream Puppy

While we wish all puppies would let us know they need to potty that is not reality. Expecting a puppy to clearly communicate their bathroom needs is like expecting a baby or toddler age child tell their caregiver they need to use the bathroom.

What we can do is keep the puppy on a schedule so you can easily know when they need to go and what type of elimination should take place.

For example, your puppy likely needs to p*e and p**p first thing in the morning when they wake up. If they don't do both we need to keep a close eye on them and/or keep them contained. Then give them the opportunity to potty again a few minutes later.

Puppies need to be given the opportunity to potty:

đź‘Ť after waking up

đź‘Ť after eating amd drinking

đź‘Ť after play

đź‘Ť after a training session

If your puppy is struggling, even on a good schedule, we recommend seeking your veterinarian's input to rule out parasites and infections.

Is your dog bored and annoying you?

It's an easy fix. Fill up your stuffable food puzzles and freeze for at least 2 hours. Then serve.

This can be for their daily meals or a snack. Be sure to keep an eye on the calories so as not to increase your dog's waistline.

In addition to in-home private lessons in Chattanooga, Victoria also teaches barn hunt at our Lawrenceville, GA location. This is a fun sport letting dogs be dogs searching for live rats.

Not to worry! The rats are safe, well cared for, trained, and rewarded to do this job.

Training manners is only one component of dog training. There are so many fun things you can do with your dog.

You'll see a lot of this Corgi on this page. Cindy is one of Victoria's three dogs. Our own dogs regularly remind us about breaking skills down into smaller steps amd how to be more patient.

As a trainer, we don't look for perfection in our dogs or the dogs we get to work with. We look for progress. Dog training is a journey rather than a final destination.

What breed or breed mix of dog do you share your life with?

Boundary Training for Beginners

Wouldn’t it be nice to enjoy your porch or front yard with a dog that knows the property line and stays inside of it? And, what if I told you it was possible to have that without shocking your dog? We often think of the front yard as a no-zone for our dogs, but it doesn’t have to be. Boundary training can help give you and your dog the skills needed to enjoy freedom in the entirety of your yard!

You’ll learn:

👍How to make sure your dog doesn’t chase or go towards distractions.
đź‘ŤHow to get your dog to listen every time.
👍How to set up and reinforce the boundary you’d like them to stay inside of.

All dogs at this workshop need to be comfortable seeing other dogs without reactivity.

Working spots $120/each (maximum of 6)

Audit spots $60

Sunday, August 28th from 1pm to 3pm at Canine Country Academy in Lawrenceville, GA.

Teaching your dog new things means going at your dog's pace. Some dogs need time to feel safe before they can use their amazing mind.

We love tailoring our training plan to the individual learner. Each dog is an individual.

Cindy, one of Victoria's cute dogs, just started learning about Rally Obedience skills. She was pretty tired after her first class. Learning new things can definitely wear a dog out.

Does your dog know about the pup cup? This little cup of whipped cream can be a fun treat.

Scamp and Panzer split a pup cup from Starbucks while out on their adventure. They would have both preferred their own cup, but I thought that would be a lot on Scamp's system for the first time. Plus it was a training opportunity to take turns with something exciting.
