Welcome Aslan to the training pack 🐾

Aslan is a 1.5-year-old English Mastiff. Despite his enormous size, he is terrified of just about everything - trash cans being pretty high on that list. We’ll be working on confidence building so he can enjoy life a bit more.

Welcome Tato to the training pack 🐾

Tato is a 1-year-old Mini Dachshund. He’s really stinkin’ cute & he’s been known to take full advantage of it. He’s got a bit of FOMO (separation anxiety), leash reactivity, & selective listening - stay tuned for his pupdates.

(I’m a little behind in posting the pack so bear with me 😬)

Welcome Theo to the training pack 🐾

This handsome boy is a 1.5-year-old American Staffy mix. He’s a very friendly dude that wants to greet everyone and everything, which sometimes results in pulling, barking, and whining. He’s also got some confidence building to do, as bushes moving with the breeze give him a big scare. Stay tuned for his pupdates!

Welcome Kaia to the training pack 🐾

Kaia is a 9-month-old Bernadoodle from .mountain.doodles. She’s a sweetheart and very quick learner, and can also be a bit stubborn and sassy. When she has these tantrums she is mouthy and simply refuses to do anything. For example, planting herself in the shade on walks and refusing to move 😂

Stay tuned while we create a stronger, cooperative relationship that will bring clarity for her and help her find the fun in training and working with her humans.

Welcome Hanzo to the training pack 🐾

Hanzo is an 8-month-old bully mix. He’s a sweet boy that can be a bit opinionated! He’s struggling with reactivity - to dogs, scooters, bikes, etc - and is showing some pushiness and resource guarding in the home. Stay tuned for his pupdates!

Dear Dog Owners,
My heart goes out to you because we are living in a time where I see new trainers pop up literally every week. It’s really hard to sift through all of us to decide who you’ll trust to help you and your dog. Here are the things I personally would consider

And to those in the industry - Please recognize that I am all for people joining the industry and have voiced my hope multiple times that dog trainers will see one another as community, not competition. We can help more dogs and owners together than separately.

That being said, I’ve been seeing a lot of dog trainers pop up thinking it’s easy money and have no clue what they’re doing - even harming dogs in the process. So I invite professionals to join us, but please do make sure you know what you’re doing before you take on dog clients and definitely before you start charging people.

All the great dog trainers I know started working dogs for free. Volunteering to work dogs. Shadowing trainers. Paying for mentorship. Focus on learning, first. Dog training, especially behavior modification of any type, is not something you can just walk into with no prior hands on experience. Read about it all you want. That doesn’t make you prepared for it. And being ill prepared will get you and the dog hurt, or worse. And owners are counting on you to help.

And because I’ve been getting this arSJCent a lot - NO, training your own dog - rescue, working k9 of any kind, wolf dog, or whatever - does not qualify you to be a dog trainer. Come back and chat when you’ve successfully worked hundreds of dogs at minimum.

Thank you for the graphic

Welcome Kilo to the training pack 🐾

Kilo is a 4-year-old Rottweiler mix that’s a bundle of anxiety. The first day we started, he didn’t even want to leave his home. His anxiety results in a lack of confidence and dog reacticity, making it difficult for his owner to have peaceful walks. Stay tuned for his pupdates!

Welcome Rumi to the training pack 🐾

Rumi is a 4-year-old Goldendoodle. She’s had quite a bit of training but still struggles a bit with reactivity. Her parents would love to be able to take her on more walks and outings without stress, and to be able to easily walk her with her dog housemate, Ginger. Stay tuned for pupdates!

Welcome Iroh to the training pack 🐾

This handsome boy is a 7-month-old mix, adopted from . His parents got him started with some great foundational obedience and were looking to get him to the next level. We’ll be working on his separation/crate anxiety, leash skills, excitement reactivity, and confidence. Stay tuned for his pupdates!

“I just want him to listen.” -
A sentence I hear at least several times per week. Ironically, most people don’t realize that listening implies dialogue. And, dialogue requires a two-way conversation.

Yes, if you want your dog to listen, you’ll need to learn how to listen, too. And, also how to speak in a way that he understands.

I mean, how would you fair as an English speaker if I did your sessions in Chinese?

Welcome Casper to the training pack 🐾

This little dude is C U T E - that means that everyone and their mom tries to come up and not just pet him, but H U G him (please don’t do this to any dog by the way). These interactions have made an already apprehensive dog reactive to these scenarios. We’ll be working on building his confidence and instilling some leash skills so he and his mom can navigate life better.

Guess the breed in the poll!

After you school through,

I truly believe more people
should consider this option for their child 😉
