This sweet girl is Yogurt 🥰

Before Yogurt was even a year old, she was bounced around and in 6 different homes. But now she is in a loving home with awesome owners who love her and want to invest in her well being for the long term.

Yogurt is here for Dog Reactivity, Resource Guarding, Jumping, Pulling, and basic obedience.

With a little one on the way, Yogurts family is wanting to get all of this under control now for the changes that will soon be taking place in the home.

This serious boy is Lincoln, and he is here taking advantage of our 5 week program for human reactivity with a bite history.

Sometimes it's assumed that a dog is innately "bad" or aggressive when there is a bite involved, but that's rarely the case as true aggression is very uncommon. Most bites are the result of a dog that is scared and pushed past their limits of what they are comfortable with. And nearly all of them are avoidable.

Having spent a considerable amount of time with Lincoln, he doesn't go out of his way looking for trouble, but he's fear reactive so with a combination of training, advocacy and proper leadership, there is no reason for Lincoln to be of any risk to anyone who is respectful of him and his comfort zone.

We are working on:

✅ Human and Dog Reactivity on walks.
✅ Leash Manners
✅ Reliable Off-leash Recall
✅ Place Command for when there are visitor in the house

Solo is a little dog with some big reactivity, especially when it comes to other dogs.

He's a very insecure boy, and when he gets worked up he takes it out on the other dog he lives with.

And while Solo doesn't come with a bite history, his owners are concerned that it might happen. He isn't what we would classify as human reactive, but he is very fearful when meeting new people so respect for his comfort zone is all that is needed. He'll close the gap when he feels ready and once he trusts you, you'll know because he'll be batting those big brown eyes at you 😍

It all started with Loki and Luyi who just couldn't get along.

Then an unfortunate turn of events forced their owner to look into boarding options while essential repairs took place in the home.

When the cost of boarding somewhere else isn't that much cheaper than our cost to Board AND Train, taking advantage of our program is a no-brainer!

Pictured here are Kilo, Pyro, Tofu, Luyi and Loki! Each dog has a unique personality, and as such our training will be altered and catered to not only their specific needs, but also to help their owner manage their ongoing training more effectively.

Vets: feeding your dog Raw food is dangerous! Feed our garbage Hills Science Diet food instead

News: yet another mass racall on kibble that's killing dogs or making them very sick 🫠

Three different dog food brands have been recalled in recent week because of bacteria that can sicken pets and humans who handle the food.

Meet Jeff!

If being an adorable puppy was the only assignment, Jeff would have crushed that goal 100x over.

But, Jeff is being true to his Guardian Breed heritage and needs some help learning that there is a time and a place for these behaviours.

Jeff can be aggressive towards new people, although he does warm up eventually. We are teaching him the place command as a means of allowing him time to process new people in his environment, and pairing this with a perfect recall since he can also resource guard food. Jeff will also be learning how to walk on leash and ignore distractions as he is going to be a large boy with a lot of drive and we want to keep everyone safe!

This boy (with a serious edge to him you can almost feel) is Bradley. Bradley can be an incecure dog, but mostly he just doesn't have a need or desire to please anyone and will do whatever he wants to get his way.

The primary goal with his training is for extreme dog reactivity and to create structure with defined rules/boundaries to make him home life easier for his mom who recently adopted him. Bradley is a strong willed boy and isn't afraid to use his mouth so she has been unsuccessful with helping him get past these challenges.

We will be working on:

✅ Leash Manners w/ Distrsctions
✅ Place Command
✅ Reliable Off-leash Recall
✅ Ignoring Dogs
✅ Crate Training

We are making excellent strides with this stubborn boy and soon his home will be a lot easier and more enjoyable for the wonderful woman that gave him a second chance at life!

Neither one were born innately knowing how to coexist with the other. It's our responsibility to teach them how to interact kindly and respectfully.

Cultivating a positive relationship between the two isn't always easy, but it's not impossible. We have to be an advocate for both our pets and our children and truly understanding your dog is the first step to helping them live comfortably and confidently with kids.

If you have a little one (or are planning/expecting) and you think you might need guidance with integrating your dog, we are here to help!

This gorgeous beast is Kilo and he's here because...well, he's just too friendly 😅

With his monster size and incredible strength, Kilo can be impossible to control when he becomes excited. And since being a happy and excitable boy is a perpetual state for him, we are going to help his family by teaching Kilo the following things:

✅ Reliable Recall
✅ Not to Jump
✅ Leash Manners
✅ "Out" Command

Kilo is making incredible strides with our 4 week program and soon he will learn that being happy doesn't have to mean being a bulldozer 🤗

Our beautiful trainee Nova is here with her brother/littermate Jax to take part in our 4 week board and train program.

Nova arrived a few weeks later though as she was recovering from surgery.

🤗 And she 100% cancer free 🥳

Jax and Nova are perfect examples of why you have to be flexible and diverse in your training methods. They are the same breed, from the same litter and raised in the same home, yet they are polar opposites in personality and management requirements.

Nova will be getting training for:

✅ The Place Command
✅ Reliable Recall
✅ Leash Manners
✅ Dog Reactivity
✅ Prey Drive
✅ Excessive Barking
✅ Reactivity towards bikes/scooters/cars etc

If you struggle with your reactive dog, contact us to learn more about our Board and Train Bootcamp and let us help you

Humphrey was a more challenging case. He had been to 2 other trainers, but his human reactivity was too extreme.

It took some time to earn his trust, but once we did he showed us that behind his BIG reactivity, was a very scared and insecure dog.

Thank you for trusting us to help!
