Clients love to ask us - what’s in your dog’s bowl? So, here’s a little peek at dinner for our pack today:

* AAFCO Complete Beef Grind from Richard DeBerry 🐄
* Freeze Dried Sardine from Richard DeBerry 🐟
* Kelp to help with tarter teeth and healthy coat pigment 🌊
* Probiotic powder for a happy gut 🤗
* Platinum Performance muscle & endurance supplement for the working dogs 🐕
* Icelandic Anchovy Oil (with Vitamin E) for Omegas 🐟
* Glyco-Flex 3 joint support chews 🏃
* One Guinea egg 🥚

Did you know we run a raw food co-op right here in Medina?? The goal is to support making raw feeding accessible and affordable in our region! And as much as we LOVE raw, we know it isn’t for every pup or family. That is OK! (We even use kibble with our working dogs for things like rewards during training, for tracking, and for easier meals when we take those looooong training trips). 🍖 🧳

Can you guess what Maxi and I were up to this afternoon? 🧐

If you guessed practicing for vet visits, you’d be correct!

Did you know that most veterinary practices will schedule a “happy visit” where you can come in (with or without a trainer) to work on making veterinary visits for your pup a more positive experience? These are fabulous for all dogs, but Maxi’s family agreed to be proactive about making the vet a great place (with lots of self control) for her BEFORE they had a problem, which we absolutely love!

We packed all of the essentials: a treat pouch, her custom muzzle from bigsnoofdoggear, her dogtraofficial e-collar, and some high value snacks. Coming in prepared is half the battle for a successful vet visit with an excitable or anxious pup, and Maxi’s training visit with akronmedinavethospital was easy-breezy! We cannot thank the staff (and her dad) enough for the cooperation in setting this silly little gal up for a lifetime of success after her training program.

💡A little : use your obedience skills like loose leash walking into the building (be picky!), your down stay or “under” cue in the lobby, and place for the scale to help your dog stay in the best brain space possible, even if they are a little stressed about the doctor! 🧑‍⚕️

Zuri is currently looking for a new couch to call her own. She is a 7ish year old pitbull mix, but don’t let that scare you. Zuri is a great reminder that age is just a number; she still has the energy and get up and go of a two year old pup. Just with better training and a polished set of snuggling skills. 🤗

Zuri would be best suited as a single dog, and this is the only reason her person is considering rehoming her. Zuri is very people social, but can often be “too much” with other dogs, which gets her into trouble. She is e-collar trained, crate trained, muzzle trained, walks nicely on leash, and knows all of her basic commands. She is looking for a family that will commit to maintaining her training (she thrives with predictable structure and brainwork to keep her confidence up!) and give her a soft landing to live out her golden years. And no, we don’t think she is going to slow down anytime soon. Get the chuck-it balls and your hiking boots ready 🎾 🥾

Zuri can be prone to separation anxiety, but this is easily mitigated with a good kennel routine, regular exercise, and consistent boundaries. She will be rehomed with all of her training equipment and we will provide transition training and discounted lifetime support to set her up for success in her new home! 🫶🏼🩷 We love this little dog as much as her current dad; at the end of the day we just want her to land with her perfect match!

📥 Send all inquiries via DM or email [email protected] with ZURI in the subject. Transport can be arranged for the right family! 🚐

Sometimes it’s the little things in life that make the biggest difference for our dogs - other times, it’s practicing a sit stay with a handful of your feathered friends 🐓 🐾 Little Maxi girl is hard at work honing her skills!

Gizmo here to remind you that (good) reps build (good) reliability.

Practiced a behavior set today? 🧠

Do it again.
And again.
And again. 🐾

Repetition is where reliability is built. And if you need a hand with the consistency part, we’re here to help your pup make some better habits.

Are you dreaming of hands-free obedience where you can trust your dog to make the right choices at home AND in public? 🥹

Honey’s family was ready to level-up their relationship with their pup and her training so that they can do just that! She is completing our Perfect Puppy program, which means she’s been training with us on and off since she was just a baby! Now, at close to a year, she’s ready to tackle all of life’s big adventures with confidence! 🐕 🤩

This is just a little clip of how we start to build reliable “off-leash” skills once the dog is fluent “on-leash”! Here she is dragging a long line, both for leash law compliance and to allow us to help her find the correct behavior or position if she gets a little distracted. (And if your trainer skips the on-leash part 🚩…. It might be time to find a different trainer 🫣)

Little Poppy wrapped up her Puppy Primer with a few swimming lessons.

Often, when clients ask us “what will my puppy learn in a puppy program,” and the answer is “a little bit of everything!”, this is what we really mean. Lots of confidence building and life skills, with a dash of extra fun along the way! 📖 🐾
