We have an EXCITING announcement!

Rockem Dog Training will now be teaching group classes at Pet Food Express in Danville! Beginning the first week of September, we will be kicking off our very first round of group classes, which are open to the public! We have two classes coming up:

PUPPY IMPRINTING CLASS:
(for puppies 12-20 weeks old)
*Potty training, in-home routines, name recognition, feeding, prevention of unwanted behaviors
*How to properly socialize with humans and other dogs
*Foundational commands and marker words
*Confidence building, surface discovery, body awareness, and real world exposures
*Grooming, nail clipping, ear cleaning and medical handling

FREE SHAPING TRICK CLASS:
(for dogs 5 months old and up)
*You will learn how to utilize the process of free shaping to teach your dog new behaviors and tricks!
*Free shaping involves teaching through the process of capturing offered behaviors until you achieve an end goal. Your dog is actively seeking the answer rather than passively following a target to learn a new skill.
*This process not only teaches complex skills, but helps develop more focus & engagement!
*This class is customizable, allowing you to teach a variety of possible behaviors you are hoping to learn.

If you would like to request enrollment in either of these classes, head to our website and go to the ‘Group Class’ tab to fill out our form!

If you dive deep into puppy raising practices, there is a wealth of information around structure, crate training, potty training, relationship building, environmental exposures, obedience training and more.

Working with hundreds of puppies and adult dogs in board and train programs, we often see “gaps” in developmental life skills that are seemingly small, but can make a big difference when your dog is faced with various changes that are common throughout their lifetimes.

We work with countless dogs that know their “sits” and “downs” and don’t have potty accidents indoors, but they have never pottied on a leash or on anything but grass because they have access to a backyard, they are frantic in the car, get spooked in the dark, don’t know how to drink out of a different water bucket, and much more.

These are a handful of life skills that may not be at the top of the list of the average puppy manual, but will go a tremendously long way in developing an adaptable and resilient dog who is capable of handling a wide variety of circumstances.

We are so thankful at this time as we round out our first year since we merged businesses, our families and our lives together. Thank you to our incredible community who has supported us through all of the change, relocations and growth.

We can hardly express how wonderful it has been to transition from serving dogs individually to working together as a team. This process has pushed us to learn and develop into better versions of ourselves both personally and professionally. We can’t wait to see what the future holds!

Thank you for trusting us with your dogs, your relationships, and your journeys as families. From our little family of hooligans to yours, Happy Day 🧡

We welcome all breeds, ages and training methods!

After the group class, our very own Sammy Jo ( ), will take one photo portrait of each attendee that will be emailed to you. This photo can be of just your dog or you & your dog

Lastly, we have prepared goodie bags stocked with products and samples from some of our favorite dog companies. Peep the invite for just a few of our amazing sponsors!

when did our puppy grow up🥹

Anchor is officially home after being with for the last 5 weeks and we could not be happier that he’s home! Anchor went into his board and train program to work on his obedience/recall, public access training and to begin task work as a service dog in training.

Now, if you didn’t know, Rockem is no longer local to us but shortly after getting Anchor and despite Rockem moving up to the Bay Area I knew I didn’t want to send him anywhere else. Chelsea and Sammy have truly dedicated their lives to the well being of all dogs that come through their training programs. Not only do they have years of dog training and care experience they also understand the importance of biological fulfillment for dogs which is something that I feel like a lot of trainers don’t prioritize. We wanted Anchor to work on all of the things that we sent him to the board and train for but we also wanted him to have opportunities to be a dog whether that was socializing with other stable dogs, engaging in play with Chelsea, going to the park on a long line to sniff, or working on confidence building. Seeing Anchor be his normal goofy self at Rockem truly meant so much to me because I knew that the level of care he was receiving was the same that they would give their own dogs and that all of his needs were being met.

Choosing a trainer to work with is a scary task, trust me I’ve gone through many, many trainers with Brew but when you find one you trust, you stick with them. I truly cannot thank Chelsea and Sammy enough for all the work that they do and the level of care that Anchor received while at their home. He went to his board and train a good boy and came home an even better boy🧡

We want YOU to join us in spreading pride by sharing what you and your dog have done lately that makes you proud. Whether that’s learning a new trick, settling in a new environment, overcoming a fear, calmly passing another dog on leash, recalling off of something exciting or simply toileting outside, we want you to share it with us!

For every share, Rockem will donate $1 to

•Post a photo or video to your story of you and your dog doing what makes you proud (or explaining what makes you proud).

02/04/2023

We often see online trainers shaming owners for their dogs’ misbehavior on the premise that owners are “too soft” as handlers, and don’t implement meaningful discipline. They tell you that if your dog believes you will apply punishment for their behavior, they will respect you.

Fear of consequences DOES NOT cultivate respect; it creates compliance. We must distinguish between the two when observing how a dog seemingly “listens so well” to its handler.

Fair and humane corrections have a place in addressing dog behavior, as they can effectively stop negative and/or dangerous behaviors in the operant framework.

However, the complexities that make up the concept of respect in the canine and human relationship are developed through demonstrative trust, consistency and clarity in communication, balance of appropriate structure and biological fulfillment, attentive care, and an ongoing history of positive interaction.

Equating behavior achieved through threat of punishment with respect is belittling to the beautiful role that respect plays in our relationships with our dogs, and is perpetuating the polarizing of the dog training industry that has become so quick to make words like “respect” and “leadership” taboo as they become associated with compulsion and inhumane training practices. Respect is a fundamental pillar to a healthy relationship, amongst any species, and compliance achieved through fear is in direct opposition to its development.

We want to teach owners how to be believable to their dogs… not just believable in their ability to follow through when asking for a behavior, but believable in following through with rewards, with advocating for their dog’s needs and space, with proper care for their mental and physical health, and with being fair and clear with any expectations imposed upon the dog. We want to create relationships where dogs are eager to listen to their owners because value has been created in listening, not relationships where dogs only comply with their owners because of potential consequences.

Rockem Dog Training has a comprehensive Service Dog Program for handlers that are looking to owner train their own dog to be their service dog, instead of going through an organization.

People choose this option for many different reasons that can include:
•wanting to be more involved in the process •desire for a specific breed
•need for tasks that an organization does not offer

Owner training a service dog has many benefits, but can also be a long, emotional & pricey process.

At any point in the training process, a dog can be washed, meaning they are deemed unsuitable for a working role. This can happen for a variety of reasons from behavioral to medical, and can take place at any age, which means after creating a strong bond with a dog, putting in dedicated work & a lot of money for training, and envisioning a future with this dog by your side as your service dog, it’s over. This part, by far, is the hardest part of being a Service Dog Trainer for owner training. Our top priority is the dog’s well-being, and in order to be ethical, fair & compassionate to the dog, we offer our professional opinion and deliver the difficult information when we believe a dog is unsuitable to be a working dog.

Service dogs require the right temperament, which means we can’t just take your pet dog & make them a service dog for you. For the best chances of success, picking a purpose-bred puppy is ideal, but even dogs purposefully bred for this role do not always make it. With that being said, the chances of a dog with an unknown background & genetics succeeding in this role are low (not impossible, but low).

Lastly, owner training usually requires the help of a professional trainer. Finding a qualified Service Dog Trainer can be a task in and of itself, as you ideally want to work with someone with an extensive service dog training background, not just a trainer who has trained their own service dog. Once you have found the right trainer, a combination of board-and-trains & private lessons over the course of a couple years will most likely be what you need, which can get pricey over time.

Another big update? You probably never would have guessed this one! The majority of you have followed along as we (Chelsea & Sammy) merged our companies and relocated Sammy down to Southern California to work together under Rockem Dog Training.

After much consideration about our future together personally and professionally, we have come to the decision that the Bay Area, CA feels like our true "home," and that we wish to plant our roots and continue to expand our services back in the East Bay. As such…

*Rockem Dog Training will be moving back up to the Bay Area at the end of the month, and we are taking bookings for services starting April 9th!*

We are now accepting inquiries for board and train programs, lessons, and boarding (for board and train graduates only) for clients willing to travel to our new location in Walnut Creek, CA. Please visit our website at www.rockemdogtraining.com to fill out new inquiries. 

We are also excited to be expanding our services to soon offer group classes for both new clients as well as graduates looking to enroll in unique learning opportunities for you and your dog, as well as other exciting new programs. Please stay tuned for future updates!

Meet Chelsea!

Chelsea’s story starts back in 2009 with a little Chihuahua mix named Rocky. Shortly after she adopted Rocky, she became mildly obsessed with training him & decided to make it her entire identity.

She began her work in the animal field in 2010 working for a company where she trained animals of all kind for TV, movies, commercials & more. A year later, she became an Animal Control Officer, where she worked with animals (& people) in high-stress, emotional situations, requiring her to make split second decisions to keep animals, the public & herself safe.

In 2013, she began her work with Canine Companions for Independence, where she underwent a three-year apprenticeship, passing all written and practical exams to become a certified Service Dog Instructor through Assistance Dog International. In her 6.5 years here, she trained, assisted with & placed hundreds of dogs.

In 2019, Chelsea started Rockem Dog Training to help owners & dogs become the best versions of themselves together. In 2021, Instagram brought Chelsea and Sammy together and well, you kind of know the rest.

Outside of running Rockem, she spends 90% of her free time with her dogs. While their favorite pastime is hiking, her two dogs, Rocky & Mike, are 14 & 9 respectively, so they aren’t quite as active as they used to be. Her hobbies are whatever her dogs’ hobbies are. These hobbies include throwing balls in all types of weather, holding a retractable leash and standing in one place for 20 minutes, sitting on the couch uncomfortably to maximize dogs’ comfort & living with overwhelming amounts of sass and demand barking. They do also enjoy paddle boarding, walking in nature & sunbathing. The other 10% of her free time is spent eating and sleeping & convincing Sammy to do the same.

The passion & dedication she feels towards her dogs is the same passion & dedication she feel towards you and your dogs’ success!

Meet Sammy!

Sammy’s love of dogs was developed at a young age, but it wasn't until bringing home her first dog in early adulthood that she became immersed in dog training, nutrition, development & behavior. Love quickly turned to obsession! After spending a few years raising & training her own dogs & pursuing continuing education & certifications in training & canine nutrition, she made the decision to follow her passion & work with dogs as her career.

Sammy started shadowing & working for other trainers with various specialties, & working professionally at a board and train facility focused on pet dogs with a range of backgrounds and behavioral challenges.
She then moved back to her hometown in Northern California where she opened her own company training pet dogs through private lesson programs and home based individualized board and train programs. After meeting Chelsea, and becoming partners in life, it is now a privilege to have merged her company with Rockem Dog Training to provide these services and more to the dogs of Southern California.
 
Sammy’s educational background is in Neuropsychology, which has lended itself to a broad understanding of behavior & learning theory. She’s enjoyed ongoing continued education through workshops, seminars and online courses, & believes as professionals, it's important to always continue learning. Sammy also holds a certification in Raw Dog Food Nutrition and has helped hundreds of dogs improve their health through transitioning to a species-appropriate diet.

When not working with client dogs, she spends nearly all her time with her four personal dogs hiking, mountain biking, training & playing. She also hobbies in photography, drawing & eating delicious food! Sammy has personally raised five puppies in the last five years and is happy her youngest is finally aging out of puppyhood 😅. She also adopted a senior deaf chihuahua mix who she nutritionally rehabbed and cared for until he passed of old age in 2020.

Sammy’s passionate about enhancing all dog’s lives through positive change in mental & physical fulfillment, nutrition, health, and the nurturing & love that comes with a thriving bond between human & canine.

Meet the dogs of Rockem!

Starting on the left, Rocky is a 14-year-old Chihuahua & Min Pin mix who is overflowing with sass, a zest for life, a passion for food, an undying love for all things sunshine & warmth. He loves big & hard to those in his circle.

Mike is an 8-year-old Lab. He’s never met a stranger (human, dog or animal alike) & would prefer to spend everyday, all day playing with other dogs & his ball. He wakes up each day full of excitement & joy for a new day.

Bowie is a 4-year-old Golden & Poodle mix. He’s soulful, gentle, and a ham for attention from anyone who will give it to him. He goes hard, sleeps harder, and is one of the most thoughtful & loving dogs.

Everly is 3-year-old Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever. She’s too smart for her own good, will do anything for food, aloof to strangers, but earning her love is quite rewarding. She’s an enigma who we will probably spend a lifetime trying to figure out.

Breeze is a 1-year-old whippet, who is aptly named. Her head is usually in the clouds, and she is full of sweetness, sensitivity, and a little sass. She’s incredibly random, silly, and can usually be found having an identity crisis. She will shower any new person with kisses and maybe a few nibbles.

Plum is a 2-year-old Italian Greyhound, also known as the little alien. She has a magic for winning her way into everyone’s heart, dog and human alike. She would prefer to spend all her time antagonizing her siblings, sniffing out crumbs and dead things, and burritoing herself into warm blankets.

In a turn of events that will shock absolutely no one, we would like to announce that Worthy of Wild Dog Training is merging with Rockem Dog Training to provide a wealth of dog training services to Southern California. Together, we will now be embarking on this journey as Rockem Dog Training, LLC.

In the new year, Rockem will be offering a variety of programs that will include an advanced on and off-leash training & behavior modification board-and-train program, a comprehensive service dog training program, while maintaining lessons, group classes & more!

Words cannot describe how truly excited we are for this brand new chapter for not only us, but for Rockem’s future. We are thrilled to bring our diverse backgrounds together to give dogs and their humans a joyful, motivating, educational, and successful training experience with our little family.

Check out our new website to review our services. Our bookings are now open for 2023.

Stay tuned for an exciting giveaway, events & more updates to come!

Thank you so much for your continued support!

With love,
Chelsea, Sammy, Rocky, Mike, Bowie, Everly, Plum & Breeze

Training Tip Tuesday

Frequently, we as humans, are the source of a lot of confusion for our dogs. We often, unknowingly, are not always clear in our words or expectations, leaving room for dogs to lack a full understanding of what we are asking.

So, you want a super simple thing to do that can help you and your dog?

Take the time to write down what your commands are & what your expectations are when those commands are said, along with your marker words.

What do I mean by this?

Well, when a dog jumps on somebody, I often hear people tell their dogs ‘down’ with their expectation being that their dog stops jumping on their guest & puts all four paws on the ground. Five minutes later, they will tell their dog to ‘down’ and expect that their dog lies down on the floor. Same word, two different expectations.

So, define what ‘down’ means.

Down: dog lies down on floor
Off: dog returns all four paws to the ground (stop jumping on guests, get off couch, etc)

When you tell your dog to ‘sit’, are they allowed to get up right after they get a treat or must they maintain a ‘sit’ until told otherwise? (Hint: this is where marker words will come into play)

Definite ‘sit’.

Sit: dog places butt on ground & stays until told otherwise (this would be an implied stay).
Free: dog is released from command on allowed to move about freely.
Stay: dog stays in given command until told otherwise.

When you tell your dog to ‘heel’, do you want them to walk right next to you with their ear flap at your pant seam? If so, than you must uphold that anytime you say ‘heel’. If you say ‘heel’ & then let your dog walk in front sometimes, but correct them other times, this creates endless confusion for the dog & they will never truly understand the expectations of this word.

So, define ‘heel’.

Heel: dog walks on my left hand side with ear flap aligned at pant seam.
Let’s go: dog is allowed to walk in front of me, but with a loose leash & is allowed to stop as they please to sniff, p*e, etc.

These are all just examples!

Take the time to define what all of YOUR words mean & you might notice some areas you’ve been creating confusion for your dog.

16/10/2022

Halloween Tips & Tricks (& maybe a few Treats)

HALLOWEEN DECORATIONS:
Front yards are now filled with clowns, skeletons & giant inflatable spiders, oh my. Think of bringing more food on your walks to help create as many positive interactions & associations as possible. Play engagement games (or just play!) in front of scary things at a threshold your dog is comfortable. If your dog shows interest in investigating (& it’s appropriate to do so), let them investigate and sniff. If your dog has a fear reaction, you can take the opportunity to work your dog through it or just keep on moving. Trigger stacking is a definite possibility & after they encounter one scary thing, they may more easily have fear reactions to other stimuli on that walk, as they will be in a heightened state of arousal.

DOG COSTUMES:
Dressing your dog up as a pumpkin is obviously adorable, but 100% not necessary if your dog just wants to be themselves for the occasion, so try not to do it just for the gram. As an alternative, bandanas are just as cute as costumes. If your dog is fine in clothing, have a freaking blast & send me pics.

TRICK OR TREATERS:
If you’re handing out candy & your dog is free in the house, this is where your threshold training will pay off. If your dog has a tendency to alert bark, it might be best to put them in their crate with a frozen treat or chew & some background noise for a nice, cozy date night … to themselves.

CANDY:
halloween = candy & while this should go without saying, stay mindful of where you leave that candy & even the empty wrappers. While no candy is good for dogs, chocolate can be toxic. Friendly reminder, dark chocolate is a lot more toxic to dogs, even in small quantities than milk chocolate is.

HALLOWEEN DOG TREAT:
Whip up a Pumpkin Spice Latte for your dog by mixing up some raw goats milk with pumpkin puree & top it off with a dash of cinnamon.

08/10/2022

Meet, Cocoa! She’s a 2ish-year-old mutt from Mexico, where she was found living tied to a tree with a deceased dog. She now lives the good life in Southern California with her family, but struggles with some deeply rooted leash reactivity to dogs & overall high energy with high drive. Mix that in with food obsession, high intelligence & some previous trauma, you get a really interesting dog to work with.

So, today, after our third lesson, I want to openly share that I have decided to shift our game plan, as dog training so often requires you to do.

In all my years of working with dogs, I have never quite seen a prong collar switch a dog into agitation as quick as it does with Cocoa. With her intense leash pulling and reactivity, we introduced the prong collar at our first lesson in a quiet environment. She initially showed a bit of over-reaction to it, but nothing I hadn’t send before. With time, my vision was that this would fade.

Well, with time, this behavior has not faded. She remains over-sensitive to pressure around her neck and anytime she is even slightly stimulated & feels pressure, she quickly becomes agitated, seeking to react, often barking and pulling, even when nothing is going on.

So, we are ditching the prong and any equipment that will put pressure around her neck and moving her over to a… harness & long line. Due to her having history of being tied to a tree, I believe the feeling of pressure around her neck almost sends her into a trauma-like response, making her feel trapped & frantic.

While balanced training has seemingly become synonymous with prongs & ecollars, I urge you to remember this is not the case for some of us & I am pleased to shift my plan and vision as needed for the dog.

With more freedom to move about & no pressure around her neck, my hope is that we see a less agitated dog. She’s insanely smart & I envision her learning to make good decisions on her own. We will also be using her recall to redirect her off of triggers, which I believe she will pattern ‘trigger = go to handler for reward’ really nicely.

While a shift in equipment won’t fix everything, I think it will play a big role in Cocoa’s case.

Stay tuned!

Happy 3rd Anniversary, Rockem!

I don’t have the right words to explain what this journey has meant to me or what you all mean to me. The connections I have created with so many of you, the growth I have experienced as a result of that & the lessons learned have, in turn, helped me become a better version of myself.

The honor & privilege I feel that so many of you trust me with your dogs is immense. I never take the magnitude of that lightly because I know how utterly important your dogs are to each and every one of you… a sentiment I can share in, as I feel the same about my dogs who are the heart & soul of myself & Rockem.

To be honest, I didn’t have a clear idea of what I wanted Rockem to be three years ago. I had a loose idea and ran with it, adapting, molding & shifting that idea as the journey so often requires.

Today, I feel more confident than ever in the vision of Rockem’s future & I can’t wait to share all the excitement with you in the next few months!

Thank you to everyone for supporting me & trusting me over the past three years. It is an absolute pleasure to have worked with so many of you & to have so many amazing dogs in my life as a result of you all. I look forward to meeting many, many more of you.
