Picture of Snowflake unrelated to following rant..

They have completely lost their minds over in Europe, and there has been a serious increase in troll traffic on my page. As if I needed one more thing to do all day, now I'm blocking certified dolts from cluttering up my page with utter nonsense (often peppered with profanity). So I apologize if you see the garbage before I get the chance to take it out.

These folks think you should never use tools. There's no reasoning with a person like thisโ€”don't try. When somebody asks an insane question, they are an insane person. Can't you train without tools? (Insane. Also... stupid.) Seeing as though a leash is a tool. Any collar is a tool. Food is a tool. What do they propose? Magic? Ahhhh yes. Why didn't I think of that? I'm sure when we build our house it will be done mostly with magic. ๐Ÿ”ฎ

They do propose magic. And they demonize anybody that doesn't use it. Everything should remain optional for the dog, and if they don't do it, we should just blame the owner. Ya know, like they do. They can't actually train dogs to do anything they don't feel like doing. So if the dog is reactive? Too bad for you.. Dog is excitable? Too bad for you. Dog isn't food motivated? Too bad for you. Dog bites? Guess you better buy body armor!

I don't allow nonsense and garbage on my page. If you're confused about how I train dogs to listen maybe you should ask questions so you can have some chance of actually learning something and become ever so slightly more competent yourself.. Maybe you could join reality one day. Although that's probably a pretty tall order.

Spending hours watching videos you don't like? Sounds like something you should probably bring up with your therapist. Also, sounds like your life has no meaning and no purpose. Probably no job and no real relationships. Except your dog of course. Who is probably an overweight oompa-loompa and doesn't know how to sit.

Anyway, Snowflake looks short on patience. Lies, nonsense, and garbage will be taken out promptly. We operate based in reality around here. ๐Ÿ˜Š

Sterling was with us for boarding! She might be the sweetest beagle I've ever met.

(Also, as a sidenote, All of the idiots that are saying I'm a s**t trainer and that there's no reason to ever use anything aversive and that I'm an idiot and don't know how to train a dog and blah blah blah.. those are the same folks that say a beagle can never be off leash. A husky can never be off leash. Wrong. Starling never even saw a leash while she was here. Just wanted to add that.)

This is one of the most common conversations that we are having with our clients. It's so important to be consistent, but If you're consistently whispering or hinting about what the rules are, your dog just won't get the memo and nothing will change.

We want people to get really good at drawing real boundaries and enforcing real rules so that they can live an amazing life with their dogs. Ironically, people are afraid of doing the things that will actually set them free.

Walking with Cora. This is the first time we've really been on a longer walk and I'm communicating a lot with her through the leash. As she gets more practice we will set firmer boundaries.

Emotionally, Cora is a very sensitive dog, but physically is another story. If the leash handling is too soft She isn't responsive at all. So this will be a big part of our go home training when we see her family in a few days.

One of the things they have been dealing with is that Cora wants to eat everything, even if it's not food... So having a way to keep her nose off the ground is super necessary!

Fireblazer went home today!!

We are so proud of how far she came and we are fully expecting her to do great back home. Her owners have been through a Midway lesson and a go home lesson totaling about 5 hours so far and still have a follow-up lesson planned in a few weeks.

They are super committed, did great with everything, and asked tons of really great questions which we love.

We are very excited to hopefully hear about enjoyable walks and fireblazer being able to come along at work with no more reactivity, throwing herself at windows, barking, growling, chasing and even biting. So much less stress and so much more enjoyment to be had.

Congratulations, guys! We are very excited for you!
