It's almost over! Autumn color has surpassed its peak, but it's still worth taking a stroll to stop and look around while your buddy has a sniff. K & I stumbled upon this little jem still hanging on at Houston meadow today. This photo doesn't do it justice. Wishing you all time to breathe and see the beauty of life each day as we wind down 2024.

Congratulations, Talia, on winning 1st Prize at the Mt. Airy Village Fair!!! Great job on the Quiz!
Doggie Language by Lilli Chin, A Dog Lover's Guide to Understanding Your Best Friend, is a great book for ANYONE who wants to know more about what dogs are trying to tell us EVERY day. Hope you enjoy it, share it and spread the word on How to Speak Dog.

Puppy Social Skills Class
Fridays at 9:30am starting June 21st
For pups under 6 months of age

This outdoor class is a fun and thoughtful way to introduce your little one to new people, places and things.  Each session starts with a lesson so your pup can practice the important skill of relaxing in the presence of other dogs and people.  Pet parents learn about socialization, social skills, bite inhibition, canine body language, how to calm an overly excited pup and so much more. Then it's time to romp & explore while you chat with our Canine Coach and other puppy parents (optional).

Children welcome!  Please one adult for the pup and another for the kiddos.

Way to go!!! A Star Student from Tuesday night's first Clicks & Tricks class taking home what she learned with one dog to teach both dogs at home. Working with the black dog who is more treat motivated will help get the golden dog more interested in the fun :) Keep up the GREAT work!!! Teaching your dog to "Touch" their nose to your hand is a useful skill that can be used for recall, to move your dog from one place to another (even in the presence of distractions) or for physical exercise, can replace a "Leave It" cue, and be used to teach new behaviors and tricks. It is a great first skill to teach any dog! #tricktraining #brightenuppup #phillydogtrainer #enrichmentfordogs #kidstrainingdogs #clickertraining

First Day of Spring Break Camp!!!  Kids each made feeder toys out of everyday household items (old socks, empty tissue boxes, TP tubes, old take-out paper bags, etc) so Kea could have her breakfast.  She was very thankful!  🐶💕 We did SO much more! Find out what by checking out the Posts. Looking forward to tomorrow.😁  Play, Learn, Grow

At today's puppy social we worked on attention, how to willingly drop something from their mouth and recall games. Looking forward to the next session as we build the skills of both dogs and humans.😁 #brightenuppup #puppytraining #positivesocialization #trainingshouldbefun

After short breaks to calm the puppies down, we can allow play to resume so long as the dogs still want to.😁

After on leash class time at today's puppy social to try out different surfaces to walk on (preparing for odd things like storm drains and shiny floors), these two pups took a little time to get to know each other before they felt comfortable romping together. There was a third puppy but that proved too stressful for the fluffy brown and white pup, so everyone got to play in sets of two, which was a much better fit for today's group.
