If your dog is not performing the way you want the first thing to do is change the way you are going about training him! 90% of naughty dog behaviors are because the dog has a history of successful repetition of performance. For one day change the way you are doing things. You will see a wonderful difference!

Chloe is learning that impulse control pays off in the end. Consistency is key when training this behavior.
Begin with simple commands, like asking your dog to wait a second before they can have something.
Incorporate impulse control into games your dog already enjoys, like fetch or mealtime.

Trying to “socialize” your dog at the dog park is like trying to teach a child to swim by throwing them into a pool full of sharks.

Do right by your dog and be the advocate they need!

Puppy “brothers” learning to be calm around each other. The need to play at this age is so strong!

All puppies need to learn independence so they don’t develop separation anxiety, but this is often even more difficult with the presence of another puppy in the house.

Happy 1st Birthday to these therapy boys!

Recall is one of the most important behaviors you can teach your dog. But did you know that this behavior is forever evolving? Just as the environment and distractions change so does the way your dog responds to you. Have a dog that’s running in the opposite direction? Every Great Dog can help

Our Therapy Dogs are going home full of love tonight after spending the afternoon with your students

I love this image. Here is Ivy, a young rescue mix who has lots of energy and personality. She is here for boot camp and during some downtime from her training she crawled under my chair and settled down. She could be barking, whining, pacing or any number of behaviors that counteract a calm state of mind but she chose to exhibit calm. ❤️

Crazy dogs enjoying the morning.

Recall training blooper

Jack got all his energy out on the field during our session.Zoomies can be an indicator that the dog needs a break from repetitive training and needs to release pent up stress.

You can’t hide from me!

We like to take advantage of opportunities to 1)engage the dog in play 2) work in obedience. Norah (16 months) could easily have left the scene to scavenge the store but our game of hide and seek was engaging enough to keep her interest.

Well that’s one way to get it done!

This little puppy made a ground breaking discovery today. . . #needham #newton #deadham #bordercollie #dogtraining #dogtrainer #cheese #bordercolliepuppy #bordercolliepup #bordercollielovers #bordercollieworld #doglovers

Introduce your young dog to new toys, games and pieces of equipment so they learn that just because it's new does not make it scary. New = FUN!

Here is a clip of me and my 10 week old puppy Norah on our first retrieve session. She has fantastic prey drive but zero retrieve or toy cooperation. Every toy she plays with is all hers! This doesn't work for me as I want sharing and no competition between me and my puppy. . My criteria here is simply that she mouths the toy at a very short distance. I don't care if she brings it back. As you can see from the end she does start to turn with it in her mouth. Keep sessions like this short and sweet. . #bordercolliepuppy #bordercollietraining #bordercolliesofinstagram #puppylife #puppylove #puppyplay #puppytraining #everygreatdog #trainyourdog

Puppy recalls

Practicing our recalls with long lines in puppy class tonight. These puppy parents are doing so well controlling their puppies in a very distracting environment!

Puppy leash training is not an easy task for any owner. Start small! Bohdi is learning to follow, keep an eye on the person on the other end of the leash and that every rock is not a treat! All of this at 11 weeks old.

Much fun was had a Every Great Dog’s AKC puppy class on Wednesday! Thank you to the peaceful pooch for loaning us the space for the night. Puppy parents you will get an email about our fabulous new location!

We trained over 300 dogs and their humans this year. Here is a small glimpse into the dogs we worked with. See you in 2022! #everygreatdog #needham #needhamma #greatdogs #newtonmassachusetts #dedhammassachusetts #doverma

We love brain toys for dogs that deliver timely reinforcements. Dogs do not get bored of these toys and as a bonus you can deliver her entire meal from them!

Let your puppy interact with older dogs who will tolerate puppy’s antics. Here Zeke is saying “I may be big but it’s ok I’m not going to harm you, come play with me!”
