Part 3: The Truth Unleashed

Sarah couldn’t sleep that night. She scrolled through old family photos, stopping at one that made her gasp. There it was—an image of Max, their beloved dog from years ago, with a striking resemblance to Rusty. The same warm eyes, the same gentle expression.

Rusty nudged her hand, almost as if telling her to look closer. And then it hit her—the leash they found in the garage wasn't the only thing Max left behind. Hidden inside was an old key.

The next morning, Sarah followed Rusty as he led her straight to their backyard shed. With trembling hands, she unlocked it, uncovering a box of forgotten memories—photos, letters, and Max’s old toys. Tears welled up in her eyes. It was as if Rusty had come into their lives to remind them of the love they’d once shared and the happiness that still surrounded them.

"Maybe some dogs are just meant to find us," Jake said softly.

And from that moment on, Rusty wasn’t just a stray—he was family.

The End.

Part 2: Signs From the Past

The next morning, Sarah took the dog—now affectionately named "Rusty"—to the vet to check for a microchip. No luck. No collar, no tags... nothing to hint at where he had come from.

Back at home, things got even stranger. Rusty seemed to know his way around the house as if he’d been there before. He sat by the back door waiting patiently, then led Emily straight to an old, dusty box in the garage. Inside, Sarah found something that sent chills down her spine—an old leash, cracked with age, that once belonged to their childhood dog, Max.

“How could he know?” she whispered to Jake, her mind racing.

As the family grew more attached to Rusty, they couldn’t shake the feeling that he had a deeper connection to their lives than they realized. But how?

Part 1: The Mysterious Stray

It started with a quiet rustling outside their door late one rainy night. Sarah peeked through the window, her heart pounding. There, in the dim glow of the porch light, sat a soaked, scruffy dog with the saddest eyes she’d ever seen. He didn’t bark or whine—just stared, as if waiting for something... or someone.

Jake, her husband, opened the door cautiously. “Poor guy,” he murmured, stepping back as the dog cautiously padded inside, dripping water everywhere. Their kids, Emily and Noah, were instantly smitten. “Can we keep him, Mom?” Emily pleaded, already wrapping the dog in a towel.

Sarah sighed. “Let’s see if he has a home first.”

But something about the dog’s calm demeanor and knowing eyes told Sarah this might not be an ordinary stray. Who was he? Where did he come from? And why did it feel like he belonged here?

To be continued...

If you want your dog to listen around other dogs. You have to train them around other dogs. There is no getting around it. Now that does not mean that you go right into the deep end and start forcing your dog to listen 2 feet from a dog.

Training is a journey. Start from a distance your dog can succeed then progressively push their ability. Get closer based off of success and only retreat if things are not going well.

People all too often stay where it is easy.

Nothing good in life comes without pushing into the discomfort a little.

How well does your dog listen around other dogs?

Most Important Puppy Training Tips 🐾
Getting a puppy is exciting, but training them early is key to raising a happy, well-behaved dog. Here are the top three tips every puppy parent should know:

1. Socialize Early
Expose your puppy to people, sounds, places, and other dogs during their critical socialization window (3–14 weeks).

Why? It helps prevent fear and aggression later in life.
How? Visit new environments, let them meet friendly dogs, and reward calm behavior with treats and praise.
2. Use Positive Reinforcement
Reward good behaviors to encourage your puppy to repeat them.

Why? Puppies learn best with positive outcomes.
How? Use treats, toys, or praise immediately after they perform a desired action like sitting or going potty outside. Avoid punishment—redirect instead.
3. Stay Consistent
Consistency is key to helping your puppy understand what’s expected.

Why? Clear routines and commands build trust and reduce confusion.
How? Use the same words for commands and ensure all family members follow the same rules.
Training takes time, patience, and love, but the effort is worth it. What’s been your biggest puppy training win? Share below! 🐶👇

I got to train with Biscuit and his dad today. He is such an adorable pup.

One of the recurring themes that I run into with dogs and families is, being permissive about the dogs undesirable behavior.

Say a dog jumps on guests.

We know this to be true.

How do we stop it from ever happening at all?

Management: Leash, barrier, different room or good obedience.

So let's say our goal is good obedience.

How often are you practicing the expected behavior?

Now how often do those sessions include various distractions and stressor?

After all. Our training is only as good as our baseline when stress hits.

So wr need to include stress in our training.

Now during this conditioning phase. Are we doing a good job of ensuring the dog doesn't have the opportunity to practice what we don't want?

If the dog does indeed jump on someone. Is there a predictable and consistent consequence for doing so?

The behavior is so natural and frequently used that it can be really tough to get rid of for a lot of families.

At the end of the day. Consistency is what will get you there.

Happy training.

Puppy Greeting dog training

Working on good greetings and approaches with Juno. One of the sweetest puppies ever. Juno is in our puppy school program and doing so amazing.

Watch as Kaiya, a Bernese Mountain Dog, meets Crosby, a playful Great Pyrenees mix, for the first time! We start with calm, on-leash exposure to ensure both dogs feel safe and comfortable. Once they're ready, we move into a controlled barn interaction, allowing them to drag their leads for safety and easy intervention if needed. During their interaction, Crosby's enthusiastic (and slightly dominant) advances prompted Kaiya to set a boundary—and we stepped in to reinforce her communication and maintain a positive experience for both pups. This is a great example of reading canine body language, managing interactions, and knowing when to pause to ensure respectful play. #BestPawForward #DogTraining #BerneseMountainDog #GreatPyreneesMix #DogSocialization #ReadingDogBodyLanguage

Our Story

Best Paw Forward was founded by husband and wife team, Michael and Jamie Badial, after years of working with hard to adopt rescue dogs in both our own rescue for aggressive dogs as well as with other local rescues.

Having both grown up with an innate love of dogs, we are able to help owners understand why their dog does certain things and effectively communicate with their dog about what they should do.

While working with dogs each day brings us so much happiness, our real joy comes from restoring peace and harmony to the home and helping owners to live with their dog the way they had always imagined.
