We’re going to share a few joyful updates today because who couldn’t use that? 🥰
First up, behold the joy of absolutely precious boy Booger! Booger came to his mama very anxious and worried about the world and she has been working hard to help him feel braver. They recently had a big move and sent this update…
“We went to a trail today. His recall was 95% and reactivity was at an all time minimum. Thanks for your help!!! He’s thriving.”
Get it, Booger!!! 🙌🏽❤️
Lil fitness potatoes Gemma and @beefcake_boris hope you and your pups got outside to do something fun today! These two love their long line nature sniffaris! Happy Sunday y’all!

We always love scooping up our buddy Zuko for a While You Were Out adventure and we think he was pretty pumped too! Zuko rocked cruising around a fairly busy neighborhood this morning - easily passing things that used to trigger some big feelings! We just love seeing this guy feeling confident and strutting his stuff out about about! 🕺🏼🕺🏼🕺🏼
We got such a cute update on our friend Cubby that we have to share. 🥰
Cubby had some pretty serious fear and anxiety issues when mom adopted him but she was all in on getting him the support he needed and this boy has come so far.
Today’s update included pics of him snuggling with mom’s partner who earlier on he may have been frightened to meet, a great report from the vet who said he was a very brave boy for his visit, and this video that makes us 🥹🤭.
At Cubby’s second session, we brought out a duck toy as one of his bravery supports at a park and he loved it so much we decided he should keep it. Over a year later, not only does he still love that duck, it has grown into a whole duck collection! 🦆
Oh Cubby. We love you, bravest boy. ❤️
If there is a cuter holiday video update we haven’t seen it yet!! 😍🥰
Miss Molly originally came to training to work on her fear of the big wide world and her level of stress and defensiveness around other dogs.
She is still working on her comfort level sharing space with other dogs indoors but here she is bravely frolicking on the beach (that joyful waddle, y’all, we can’t handle it! 😍) with her canine housemate Thumper and her grandparents’ beagle!
Get it, Molly!!! 🥰❤️
We’re spending this weekend attending The Great Big Dog Aggression Workshop Part II: Meds, Moods, & Modification with Dr. Chris Pachel & Michael Shikashio!
It’s off to a great start and we’re excited to see what’s up next. Thanks for hosting, @behavior_vets! 💙
Today’s #pupstarts featured another great collaboration with the trainers at @south.austin.dog.center, who provided our puppies an opportunity to practice some healthy dog-dog interactions and our puppy parents some excellent information on facilitating safe interactions on and off leash. We love these partnerships with local experts to ensure our clients get the best and most accurate information for their growing pups. Plus, puppy piles are just tooooo cute. 🤝🐶🥰🥳 #trainwithlove
We’ve been working with little man Dillon and his #foster on consent for touch and she recently shared this update with us! 🥰
Dillon came to @austin_bulldog_rescue rescue after losing the only family he’d known for 10 years. He is hearing and vision impaired and though he loves affection, was getting startled and overwhelmed in some situations. Dillon is learning how to clearly ask for affection and his humans are learning how to make sure Dillon is ready for and comfortable with touch.
Great job, Dillon and #team! ❤️
