Lainey 🎸

There’s so many of them out there living in cages having puppies to support the market of dogs.

This dog had no one to be there for her when she was surrendered to me. While I’m glad we found each other and I don’t know what the future looks like I know that it includes “Atta Girl”. ❤️

I absolutely love when people trust me to help them choose their dog. There’s something deeply rewarding about matching a person’s lifestyle, personality, and experience level with the perfect canine companion — it’s truly an art that takes careful thought and genuine understanding.
Too often, I see people falling in love with the “Ferrari” of dogs — high-drive, intense, athletic breeds that look stunning on Instagram — when their actual life is more of a “Kia” reality: busy schedules, small apartments, novice owners, or young kids. The result? Overwhelmed owners, frustrated dogs, behavior problems, and far too many heartbreaking surrenders or rehomes.
Please, before you bring home that adorable puppy (or adult dog), take an honest look at your life and your experience. A dog isn’t a 6-month impulse buy — it’s a 10–15 year relationship. Choose wisely from the start, or let an experienced breeder, trainer, or rescuer guide you. The right dog for you is out there, and when the match is truly right, it’s pure magic for both of you.

Fetch is the perfect dog for my family member and I’m grateful many people allow me to pick their dogs for them. ❤️

Latte ☕️

Remember that dog?
The one who couldn’t be around kids, who had to be caught with a catch pole, who seemed like she’d never trust again?
She’s gone.
That chapter is closed forever.
And now?
This same dog is curled up with the best family she could ever dream of, surrounded by friends who adore her, sipping the finest puppy latte in town like she’s always belonged.
She made it. She’s home. ❤️

Don’t Do That” might be the most important command your dog will ever learn.

It’s not optional. It’s not “kinda-sorta.” It can literally save their life one day.

I never stop proofing it—because I don’t stop until I’m 100% confident my dog gets it. Every. Single. Time.

I purposely set up little real-life tests around the house. Why? Because I live with two small kids and a husband who leave socks, toys, shoes, and random treasures all over the floor like it’s a scavenger hunt. I need my dogs to know exactly what’s theirs and what’s off-limits—no exceptions.

Example: Before I finally tossed the last of the Halloween candy, I left the whole bag on the floor plus an open box of Smarties. That’s the goal: “Don’t touch it and go on with your day.” Simple. Calm. Clear. ❤️

If your dog would have face-planted into that candy faster than you can blink, let’s fix it.

Book a session today and let’s turn your dog into the polite, trustworthy family member you deserve—starting now.

This dog was one of the most reactive golden retrievers I have ever seen.

She showed up at class and acted beyond insane. Instead of asking them to leave I asked them to not focus on any obedience and just come try something with me.

Multiple weeks we showed her that I wasn’t a boogie man, the dogs weren’t doing to hurt her. Introducing a great game for her to play.

After this we told her that she wasn’t allowed to lose her mind at dogs anymore. I haven’t seen her in a couple months and yesterday her owners told me she didn’t react again. She’s seen multiple dogs in many environments and the most she’s done is let out a low growl.

I’m so impressed with her handlers investment into their dog, 90% of this success is them- they simply did what I asked of them. How grateful am I that I get to work with humans who really put the work in.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ to both of her owners!

Have you been told or seen online that it’s not okay to tell a dog “no”?

Why have you been told it’s not okay to tell your “No” or correct unwanted behaviours?
