Thank you to those who support this one-woman small business! 🐾🎁✨

I always have gift cards available for the holidays! Any amount can be purchased 💌 give the gift that keeps giving: knowledge on how to train their dog for the long haul.

Sharing, liking, and commenting on social media is a huge way to support as well. If you’re a client who has yet to write a review…reviews *also* give support by way of credibility with the community!

Thank you 💕

🐾 Quick lesson tips from a professional:

🎄keep lessons short & sweet! 10-15 minutes (can do 1-3x/day)

🎁 find what motivates your dog! Toys? Squeeze treats? Play/engagement? Crunchy kibble?

🎄 give sniff breaks! scatter some snacks in the grass for them to find between tasks (as you see here)

🎁 if they’re energized, do some strenuous play *before* you do some calm, focused, mental training

🎄 remember…if they aren’t “getting it” or aren’t as engaged as you’d like….reflect! What could you change about the set up for lessons? Are you moving fast through the task? Are they still at “1st grade” while you try to ask for “4th grade”?

✨when you just had the best lesson with your trainer✨

Sweet Cody is an energetic youngin who is learning to enjoy walks at a slower pace with his family! One tip I often give clients is to *pre-exercise* your dog BEFORE the walk! That’s right! Here you see Cody’s flirt pole/lure toy which we use to warm him up! We get him bouncy and panting to take the edge off….and then we walk (at a much slower more enjoyable pace for the humans) 😌

Someone please save this old gal 😭

UPDATE: BREN HAS BEEN ADOPTED! 😭🎉🎉

🥺 64 days in and not a single application.

Senior gal Bren’s view.

To be honest, it’s not that great.

We’re 2 weeks away from Thanksgiving, and she’s going to end up spending it alone at the shelter.

It’s killing us.

Her fee is sponsored.
She is housebroken.
She’s waiting on her hero.

‼️Bren must be the only animal in the home.‼️

Lulu is wishing everyone a Happy Halloween! 🎃

‼️Don’t forget:
•costumes and extra visitors may be spooky for your dog! You can always give them a special chew item away from the action while you pass out candy, or leave a cute sign on your porch with the candy for a self-serve set up and snuggle up with a movie with your pup!
•make sure pet costumes are something your dog will enjoy, and that they are well fitted and comfortable! If not, tik tok and Snapchat have great fun filters to provide hands-off dress up 🥸
•keep candy up and away from curious noses 🍬🍫 avoid a visit to the ER!
•make sure your pup has a collar with tags on in case they slip out during candy hour!

Have fun & be safe!! 🧡👻

Welcome to training, Clover & Ivy! 🍀🌿

Both girls struggle with similar yet different behaviors so we put together a training plan last night that will get them started in the right direction.

I really appreciated how their guardian shared that she felt so overwhelmed with all of the different bits of information out there and just “needed someone who was the expert in this” to simplify and guide the way. While training lessons are an investment…they are so valuable in that you are saving time not trying out a bunch of techniques that may not be suitable for your dogs and their specific behaviors. There is no one size fits all approach! Sometimes those internet techniques can do more harm than good…

Professional consultants take into account *your* dog’s history, activity, daily routines, behavior struggles and goals to lead you to the exact plan you’ll need to make the changes you hope for.

I have a rolling admission, but I’m currently scheduling for late December-January 2025! 😱 so often people will wait until things are way worse before reaching out…but I always encourage to sign up the moment you notice behavior issues! You’d be so surprised at what you can learn in just one lesson.

There are some dogs who quite literally take years to show me that I’m in their trusted circle. Burt is one of them.

I met & started working with Burt almost 6 years ago when he was first adopted. He had quite a lot of apprehension with strangers and any physical interaction made him nervous. I think in the last six years the most contact I’ve ever had (after numerous lessons) was when I was helping to teach a chin rest…just his chin on my knee to work on cooperative care. He wasn’t ready for more than that, and I would never ask that of him for my own benefit.

Fast forward to this year when we started up training with his sister after not seeing him for a couple years. Eventually transitioning to some drop in visits through the week for a break outside with only me…

This is the first time that Burt has given silly & playful vibes…he will go roll in the grass and then gallop over to me to then sit right in front of me for gentle back rubs. Many times he will melt into his belly up stance where he is completely at ease just enjoying the fresh air and more petting.

This is not the Burt I’ve always known, but what an honor to earn his trust. To earn the silly & playful interactions. It’s honestly wild still to interact with him in this way. An unspoken agreement between human and dog.

This will always be my why.

🤍

Last night I caught up with my *not so little* buddy, Slate to help his parents navigate some loose leash skills!

After just a couple of minutes, Slate realized how to access the magical contents of his dad’s treat pouch, and continued to be a star student for the rest of his walk! He even offered to check-in with dad after noticing a herd of sandhill cranes 😮

We love our good boy 🥹 bravo, Slate & family!

Okay okay….I know I’m not the only pet parent that has special seasonal toys that we get so excited to bust out for the holidays…

Porter says: this is my spooky szn stash! He is so lucky his gramma just got him a fresh Zero as his other one is over 6 years old 🥹 we love the Nightmare Before Christmas around here!

Comment or tag us with your Halloween toy stash 👻🎃🐾

📸 snapshots from our recent client meetup! 🍂

This has been a great way for clients to build community & connection with other dog parents going through training! A safe way to practice among people who also know about body language, proper greetings, appropriate play behavior, and if a dog needs more space or a break.

Current clients and recently active clients are always welcome! This is a complementary service to help you practice in a group setting ✨
