●This is part of our AFT Basic Obedience Group Class. We were out for a pack walk for this session. After working in our controlled environment for the past few weeks, we were ready to put to work what the dogs and owners learned. Working in an uncontrolled environment can be challenging, but everyone did a great job! There were some minor things some dogs were struggling on, but we saw the issues and we will work on the next class. Our goal is not only will your dog know the basic commands after our program, but they should be able to loose leash walk, no matter the distractions. And what we saw yesterday, was night and day from how these dogs arrived on day 1. We are so looking forward to the next session. We are grateful we are part of this experience.
●Also, big thanks to Maize for using our working vest. She had a job to do and she was happy doing it. She carried the water and bowls in the vest. This is another way to give your dog a job and make them happy. Dogs were bred to have jobs or perform certain tasks, and that has been lost in many families that own dogs. We discuss this in our programs and we can help you find a new hobby or exercise to do with your dog. Maize was pooped afterwards 😆

●We had an extremely productive day training Marley. He is here for our AFT Private Sessions Program. He came to us struggling with leash reactivity, where his excitement on leash would cause him to become anxious. It would be difficult to calmy walk in dog friendly stores or even outdoors if he saw another dog. Marley was about a 9.5 out of 10 yesterday. We start our private sessions in a controlled environment at our dog training facility.
●By this session 4, we were ready to put to work what Marley and his owners had learned and boy did he do fantastic. Was there some work to do still? Yes. But we saw what we need to work on and we will get there. We have a high success rate in our programs. We are so looking forward to our next session. We are grateful his owners chose us to be part of this experience.

●Congratulations to Moose! He graduated our AFT Private Sessions Program. He is a very smart dog. He came to us as a rambunctious puppy just needing some manners, and professional
●It was so awesome seeing Moose's family again. A while back, maybe 8 or 9 years ago, we had donated our services and took in a dog named Kane from Lehigh County Humane Society You can find his video by searching "AFT Dog Training Kane" on Facebook. After we did Kane's dog training and rehabilitation, this family ended up adopting Kane. We lost touch after some time. Not too long ago, when Ashley reached out and told us Kane had passed, we cried. We remembered happy crazy eyed Kane we spent a lot of time with him as he stayed with us until he was adopted. And when we saw the pictures Ashley posted of Kane, he lived the most amazing life. Kane loved the children of the household and everyone he met along the way.
●Ashley ended up adopting another puppy, named Moose, and Moose carries a lot of that love that Kane brought to this world. We were so happy to be apart of the experience. We hope to see him again at A Furry Tail Come True Too, Nazareth and the The BW Bark and Brew Cafe at A Furry Tail Unleashed and our pack walks.

Meet Mori. She is here for our AFT Private Sessions Program. Mori is here because she gets so excited and anxious that she would have a very difficult time listening to any commands, and if she did, it would be for only one second. This anxiety would then lead to other bad decisions. The good news is, by utilizing our science backed approach paired with safer dog training tools, Mori is learning and behaving so much better. Her owner and family members are nearly in disbelief on how well Mori is doing in just 2 Sessions. In the attached photos, you will see Mori learning a Touch command. In this session, our head trainer, Maddie Tyminski, introduced communication to Mori and her owner.

Marley is here for our AFT Private Sessions Program. Marley came to us due to his leash manners, and the need to learn how to relax. He would behave too excitedly on the leash, which he would then whine and carry on while leashed, which led to other issues. This would be embarrassing for the handler and would lead to Marley not making the best decisions. However, since coming to our program, and utilizing our science backed approach paired with safer dog training tools, Marley has done a complete turnaround. His owners are having people approach them to say they are so happy to see Marley calm and behaving so well. We are about half way through our private sessions program, so we will be working on some more advanced training exercises. His owners are doing a fantastic job on the homework and follow through. In the attached photos, you will see Marley doing a 150 ft Down and place command, then his owners are asking for a Come command via remote communication with the guidance of our head trainer Maddie Tyminski. You will notice our new puppy Willow helping out as a distraction, as Marley and his owner work on loose leash walking.

😍🐾 WE’RE HIRING! 🐾😍

05/13/2026

Very often, we have dogs enter our group classes that were kicked out of other dog training classes. We have a very high success rate at helping the dog and their family with their dogs issues, and very rarely, if ever ask to have the dog removed from class. In this video, you will see how a dog named Nacho, and how he came into our 1st class. He was not the only dog struggling with leash reactivity in this class. By working with safer dog training tools and science backed methods, we are seeing such a better difference in Nacho. His owners are so happy and so is Nacho's demeanor. And this is only by class 3 of our 6 session group class!

Marley is here for our AFT Private Sessions Program. He is working on his impulse control. During this session, Maddie Tyminski went over the benefits of clear communication with Marley, while Baby Groot helped Marley work on his impulse control of staying in a Place command. We worked on teaching Marley how to loose leash walking too.

Amaya is here for our AFT Private Sessions Program. Our programs are designed to have the involvement of our own AFT Team trained dogs help. In this session, Amaya watches our head trainer, Maddie Tyminski work a Touch command with her own dog. A few moments later, Amaya is guided by her owner, to do the same Touch command. It's cool to watch dogs learning from each other too, with our guidance.
