🚨 OFFICIALLY ONE WEEKEND AWAY! 🚨

Join us for our first Pack Pals Meet Up, a FREE dog handling class led by Luis Rosado, owner & head trainer at Harmony Dog Training! 🐾✨

📍 Lippitt Memorial Park (meet up spot is at the fountain across from India Restaurant)
🗓 Saturday, April 5th | 4-5 PM

🐕 Open to ALL breeds, ages & behaviors!
🐕 Strengthen your handling skills & bond with your dog.
🐕 Must maintain proper control—advocate for your dog’s needs & respect others.
🐕This is not a time to meet and greet your dog with others
🐕Be mindful and provide appropriate space around other dog/handler groups, we have varying reactivity levels for our dog participants
🐕 One dog per handler recommended—bring a friend if handling more than one!

✨ Special Guest: Jess from Life Happens Breathwork will guide a 10-min session to help us get grounded. Our emotions directly affect our dogs’ behavior—stress, anxiety, and frustration can amplify their reactions. That’s why we incorporate holistic approaches like breathwork into training. Participation is encouraged, but if it’s not for you, we simply ask for mindfulness and respect for those who choose to join in. These exercises aren’t just for dog training—they can benefit your everyday life!

🔗 Sign up using the link or DM us for the link! Can’t wait to see you there! ❤️
(please note it says 4am in the link but it’s 4pm!)

Today everyone in the R+ community and beyond apprcaites Karen Pryor and the wealth of knowledge she has left us with. She was a large part of the push for utilizing positive reinforcement training in the industry.

Born in 1932, she passed away at 92 years old on January 4, 2025.

She wrote many informational books like, "Don't shoot the dog!" and "Clicker training for dogs." She also leaves us with the knowledge to help new trainers become better trainers with her clicker academy.

We appreciate all she's had to offer this world.
