In our Beginner Obedience class, Ollie is learning how to stay for gradually longer periods of time. Before adding distance or distractions, it's important to have duration with stay so that you have time to walk away from your dog and return to release him/her. Come see us for help with stay, come, leave it, leash walking, and more! 🐶 Check out our website for more info! Four locations to choose from in the greater B'ham area! www.lovethemtrainthem.com

THIS TUESDAY at 7:30 pm, join us for everyone's favorite class, IMPULSE CONTROL!

This course is all about teaching dogs how to regulate their own excitement level! We work on NOT pulling towards distractions, jumping, or counter surfing, and we'll build on skills taught in beginner class.

Get ready for us to amp up the distractions! Dogs will learn to settle and stay when guests knock at the door, and how to leave objects on the ground while on walks or when called to come.

Come see us!

I want to brag on my students Chrissy and Fancy... They competed in their first NW2 trial in today in Louisiana. While they didn't title, they passed three out of five challenging searches, with multiple hides each. They have been working so hard these last 2 and a half years and I am so proud of them!! Fancy even got a "pronounced" designation on one of her interior searches, due to excellent teamwork and independence! 💕 Go team Fancy!! You'll get it next time!

Lauren's excitement is contagious! I loved seeing this video of her practicing "offered" mat settles with her dog Bunker! He struggled with this new offered behavior a bit in class, but now that they are practicing at home, he is nailing the heck out of it!!!! 🤩

I love and adore these people and their dogs!!!! I had five students compete in the NACSW's Odor Recognition Test on Saturday and they all did so amazing, with three of them titling and two of them getting two out of three hides correct. Then almost all of them stayed for the mock trial, and they did freaking amazing! No words can express how proud I am of them!!!!!! Stay tuned for more photos!! 😁 📸

I have a very sad announcement to make. At the age of 12, our Love Them Train Them mascot, genius Bronze Parker, passed away yesterday. 💔 He was undoubtedly one of the most, if not THE most, brilliant dog I ever had the pleasure of working with.

In looking through some old videos today, I found one from 11 years ago where he and his mom performed at an event at PetSmart. This performance is so joyful and a great representation of their relationship!!! You can see the happiness on both of their faces. They went on to compete in freestyle, winning ribbons wherever they went, and even doing tandem routines with him and his "sister" Jewel.

Please enjoy! 💕 Here's to you, Bronze!
