Miss Avery is here for training!!

Avery is an 11 month old Lab puppy with lots of energy and excitement with everything in life! Often times this comes out as being mouthy and jumping, which is one of the big things her family really wants her to work on!

She also loves to roam around the farm at home and come back on her on her own terms and she is a bit of a menace on the leash!

Over the next 4 weeks we will be working on proper greetings, leash skills and obedience, and layering in a remote collar system for off leash communication!

This sweet and silly girl has been a blast to have at the facility and can’t wait to watch her and her family’s world expand through trianing!

Hello! My name is Ham & boy does my name fit me perfectly!
I am a 9 month old Pitbull puppy with tons of s***k! I love to use my brain & learn new things! I am full of energy & a pretty goofy guy!!

Sometimes I struggle with shutting my brain off & just watching the world go by. So that’s something I am going to work on during my time here training! I will also be working on some basic manners & obedience, as well as just learning how to be a good puppy!

In my first few days, I have already learned so much! I can’t wait to show off all I learn with everyone on the story. Follow along to watch me be the best puppy ever!!

-Love Ham 🖤

An official introduction to Miss Hazel!

Hazel is a very sweet and silly girl with some naughty habits! She knows how to use her size to get what she wants or to get out of doing things by being mouthy and rude.

Over the past few weeks Hazel has been learning how to regulate her emotions, obedience skills, especially leash manners, and working on alternate behaviors to the mouthy and pushiness she likes to do!

Hazel and her family have been doing all their homework as well and we are so excited to watch them continue to flourish!

Mom says I’m here to learn manners and obedience skills but I’m having a blast during training so that’s all that I care about! 🤪 Trainer Hannah says you can see more of my cute face on the stories while I learn all the things to be the best boy I can be!
Love,
Walter! 🤓

Sweet girl Suki!

After her housemate Luna went through training, Suki’s family wanted to push her a little bit further! After a few private lessons to help her feel comfortable with her trainer, Hailey, and being at the facility, she has joined us for Day Training!

We are primarily focusing on her state of mind while she is here with us! We want Suki to feel comfortable & confident in her environment. Building a strong relationship, where she can look to us when she feels uncomfortable or unsure!! We are also helping teach their family how to instill proper boundaries between Suki & Luna!

We are so proud of how far Luna & her owners have come, and we know they will continue to go above & beyond with Suki as well!!

Treadmill time with Mr. Bogey!

A huge part of training, especially with Board & Trains, is that their needs are fulfilled!

Dogs have mental, physical, social needs plus ensuring they get enough rest!

A dog’s mental needs are fulfilled during their training sessions, physical needs can vary dog to dog but treadmill, play and walks are all things we use to fulfill them!

Play is also great for fulfilling a dog’s socials needs but hanging out and giving them snuggles is another way we meet their needs, and build relationships!

Sleep and rest are a huge part of our training protocol as it allows dogs to process what they are learning! Sleep loss can affect their physical and psychological health, which can increase behavior problems!

Fulfilling a dog’s needs is a large part of approaching training through a holistic mindset!

Private lesson client, Pongo, has joined us for Day Training!

His owners started with private lessons for him & his housemate, Panga, a while ago. We broke down dog behavior, communication, & relationship to its core, rebuilding the dynamic in their house. They are incredibly hard-working & dedicated. Wanting to be as hands on as possible, further educating themselves, his owners have gone above & beyond for their dogs!

We collectively decided that Pongo was ready to be pushed & advance some of those skills with some day training! We will be working on helping him regulate his emotions & big feelings in new environments, build his neutrality around people & dogs, & also progress his obedience & loose leash walking skills!

We are so excited to continue working with Pongo & his family while helping them reach their fullest potential!!

Hi! I’m Mabel!

Trainer Hannah says I’m a little bit of a wild child 🤪 I get very excited very fast and I’m unsure how to collect myself when I feel this way! I’ve had such a fun first day at training, I got lots of snacks for looking at Trainer Hannah and getting onto this bed thing!

While I’m at training I’m going to be working on my manners and obedience skills because as you can see I love to jump around! But first I have to work on my self regulation skills, Trainer Hannah said there is a time and a place for being a wild child… whatever that means! 🤷‍♀️

I also am going to work on being more confident in new places so I can go on field trips with my family! I’m so excited, right now new places make me nervous!

Keep an eye out for me on the stories to watch my progress!! I can’t wait to come back tomorrow! 🤩

Happy Graduation Day Otis!

It’s been a journey with Mr. Otis but so proud of all the hard work Otis and his Mom have done!

He is confidence in himself and confidence in his mom’s leadership has grown so much through all of our lessons! They have been crushing packs walks and Otis just did his first day of daycare, which he did fabulously!

Congratulations you two, you deserve it!!

This cute little Corgi is Luna!

Luna just started week 2 of training & we are absolutely loving having her here!! She has such a big personality that puts a smile on our face each day!

This lady is soooo silly & sweet, but she struggles to regulate her emotions. Teaching Luna how to regulate her emotions is also a big part of helping her and her family at home! Luna struggles with resources around her sister, Suki, who is also doing lessons with us! Focusing on both of them learning how to co-exist without conflict!

Getting Luna to engage or any attempts to communicate with her when a new stimuli was added to the picture, used to be impossible! Over the past week we have already seen so much improve with this little lady and can’t wait to watch her family tackle the world through training!

This playful guy is Bogey!

He is a bit of a wild man with some anxious tendencies when in new situations. He has a history of biting and snapping at his family when he doesn’t want to do something, which has also caused his family to be hesitant to touch him.

His family realized that this needed to be addressed as soon as possible and got him signed up for trianing at 7 months old! As they realized the sooner the better!

Over the week we have started to see Bogey come out of his shell more and see more of HIM rather than his anxious tendencies. While some people may see a spastic puppy, deep down this is rooted in uncertainty!

We are so excited to watch Bogey and his family blossom with training, learning how to read him and help guide him through life!

EXISTING CLIENTS do you want a FREE private lesson with your trainer? PLUS give your friend the gift of a FREE new client evaluation and $100 off training??!

SHARE THIS POST! 🙌🏻

We have been fortunate in our SIX years of business to never have to pay for an advertisement. Our clients have been so happy with our training results, their dogs are our walking billboards! WE ARE SO GRATEFUL! ❤️

SO what’s the magic in our training??

We connect with your dog’s BRAIN not just their body! Meaning we take a holistic and individualized approach that targets the root of the issue (fear, anxiety, poor self control, etc), not JUST the symptom (jumping, barking, pulling, etc).

Winter is coming which means the cold is going to lock everyone indoors. Keep your dog active and their training sharp during this cold season with one of our training programs. ❤️

Reactivity is the most common behavioral concern we see, this group, and all of our daycare dogs are always ready to help us train our training dogs! Something we are so grateful for!

This little lady is Sophie!

Sophie has started training & is quite the intelligent puppy! She loves to learn, but struggles to regulate her big feelings!

While her mom has done a wonderful job teaching her great obedience foundations, they needed a little extra help advancing Sophie’s skills!

We are working on building self regulation skills in new environments, proofing her obedience by adding in some more duration & adding distractions, as well as teaching her some more advanced skills!

We are having so much fun teaching this little puppy new things & watching her continue to learn!
