My dogs are social and enjoy playing with other dogs- so, why no to dog parks? Because I want to keep my dogs sociability! I’ve had so many clients come to me after bad experiences at a dog park with a traumatized dog who no longer liked being social. Heck, spend any amount of time outside of one and you’ll likely witness it first hand. While it is possible to build a dog back up after a bad experience, it’s something that can be avoided by being cautious of what dogs your dog gets to play and interact with. I personally choose controlled interactions with dogs I know will be safe and appropriate to build my dogs confidence and give them good experiences. That being said, I love training outside of dog parks for big time dog distractions!

Work your dog in a way that fulfills them, and makes sense for ✨you✨

The caveat being of course that some dogs are better suited for some lifestyles then others, but the majority of the time you can easily fit your dog’s training and fulfillment into things you’re already doing!

This is why it’s important to think about what you want out of a dog before choosing one, and picking one that will fit into the lifestyle you want.

I for one love enjoying outdoor activities, dog sports, patios, and travel with my personal dogs (as well as working with them as demo dogs daily) which leads me to owning higher energy, higher drive dogs who will want to be active with me all day every day.

Trust me when I say you will enjoy your time with your dog more when you are doing things you actually like doing together! It sounds simple, but is missed more often than you’d think. Don’t get caught up in everyone else’s version of the perfect dog, and let’s help you find your own version instead!

I’ve had some people ask- we are still booking some boarding for April, and have training availability for the last week of March & parts of April still.

May is filling up extremely quickly, so if you have May dates you need please reach out sooner rather than later!

Private sessions & day trains are closed to new clients for now outside of the FairPlay area, but as always are available to current and past clients. (Yes, this does mean I have some local lesson spots available!)

Group classes will be starting back up soon (weather dependent) so stay tuned for group opportunities!

We still have availability for February board and trains! If you want a reliable off leash dog for summer, are having issues with behavioral problems, or just want to lock down your dogs training reach out to us to secure your spot!

One thing I cannot stand:

Is trainers bashing other trainers, especially on their public platform. Dog training is an art form as much as it is a science, which means big umbrella statements bashing others is not it. Calling out others who do things differently than you is not it. We all do things a little differently, which is one thing that is so beautiful about the industry! Programs are different, methods are different, tools are different, and application can be different too. It doesn’t make it wrong.

Just like trainers aren’t one size fit all, neither are our clients. What works for one person and their dog may not be right for another, *and that is ok*.

Now obviously there are exceptions: I like to ask myself

*is the trainer hurting dogs?
*is the trainer hurting people?
*is the training not helping the dog and client meet their goals?

If no, STAY IN YOUR OWN LANE.

I will ALWAYS believe in community > competition, and am lucky to have met so many amazing trainers in my community who feel the same way. I both refer clients to these trainers, and get clients referred to me by them. I share clients with some of them (shocking, I know).

As professionals, it’s our job to do better. And remember, sometimes it’s the people out there shouting the loudest who have the most guilt and lack of confidence about the things they are doing. We are out here to help people, help dogs, and feel morally good about the work we are producing.

As clients, I beg you to ask your trainer questions! It’s why we are here. If something doesnt sit right with you, ask why. Your trainer should be able to explain it to you in a way that makes sense. They should be able to replicate results again and again in a variety of different dogs and not just their own. And they should be able to give you a different way to do things if you don’t like your current training plan. Half of dog training is coming up with a plan, and revising it to fit your client/dog/situation in a way that makes sense.

Having a community of trainers to bounce ideas off of and problem solve with is invaluable. As a trainer, I encourage you to be open minded with training. If you aren’t, you will miss out.

did you know…
it takes your new rescue dog

💫3 days to decompress in their new home

💫3 weeks to start to settle in and learn your routine

💫3 months to start really feeling at home

While every dog is different, this is a great rule of thumb to keep in mind when you’re bringing a new rescue dog or foster dog into your home! Shelter environments are hard on dogs, as are all the hard transitions that come with the act of rescuing a dog. Some of these dogs may settle in faster than others based on genetics, past experiences, and personality but big changes are hard on any dog! Be sure to give your new rescue patience, time, and grace as you show them how to navigate their new life.

Featuring:

Freddy, who will be available for adoption through Front Range German Shepherd Rescue after he completes his training

Laki who is currently available through FRGSR

Gustaf who is currently available through FRGSR

and Nimitz my main demo dog who we adopted through FRGSR.

Rescue dogs are capable of so much, they just need someone to give them a chance ❤️

✨Let’s talk about puppies✨

Having recently added a new puppy to our household, this is a topic that’s constantly on my mind lately.

While the internet is a wealth of knowledge, it’s hard to sort through everything out there and pick and choose the info that’s right for you and your own puppy. As with everything, dog training is never one size fits all, which leaves a lot of room for confusion.

You don’t want to be using your puppies critical learning periods to be experimenting with what works and what doesn’t, which is where we are professional trainers come into play! Some key points I’ve picked up over the last decade of raising and working with puppies professionally:

⭐️no two puppies are the same, and yes this means your current puppy and your last puppy! Treat them as individuals and they’ll thrive

⭐️socialization is important, but may not be what you think it is! A small percentage of socialization is your puppy interacting with people and dogs. A much bigger part of it is building engagement with YOU in new environments, around people and dogs, and getting used to new surfaces/sights/sounds

⭐️ don’t over do it! While dogs are much more physically capable than human babies, it’s important to remember that they ARE babies! They should be getting significantly more rest than most people would guess, and while exercise is important overdoing it can have lasting effects on their growing joints. Keep your expectations consistent and age appropriate, and be sure you’re setting them up for success by not keeping them constantly stimulated.

⭐️ remember to slow down and have fun with them! While it may seem (especially in the age of the internet) that some people are fully training their puppies by 5 months of age I can promise you that is not the case. It’s worth it to slow down and build your puppies foundations instead of rushing them into things they aren’t ready for. Puppies are extremely smart and capable of big things, but we need to teach them at their own pace in order for them to be successful as dogs!

Need assistance with your puppy? We’d love to help! Reach out today to see what options fit best to set you and your puppy up for a great future!
