Reactivity can be tough to manage, especially with strong dogs! But whether your pup is big or very tiny, the best way to help is to practice correctly. Systematic desensitization will not only teach your dog a new response, but will help you learn how to best help them under more stressful conditions. Our Feisty Fidos class will also offer safe, structured practice with a trainer by your side to offer guidance and answer questions the entire time.

Our November session is open now! Give us a call or click the link in bio for more information, or to reserve your spot.

We are starting to look forward to all the fun starting in October! Besides our class list, we also want to mention our private lessons. With holiday yard decor coming fast, it's a great time to work on confidence building, leash skills, and learning to help them through moments of spook 👻

One of the things we love about Nose Work is the way that it improves confidence and problem solving skills. New objects and environments simply become background noise as your dog's love of searching starts to take over. If your dog could talk, they'd ask you to sign up for Nose Work 🐾

Taking the perfect photo can be a struggle if your dog can't sit still! Their ability to "stay" can make or break a family photo, but did you know that you can teach them to look at the camera too? From "Refined Manners" to "Focus & Engagement," our classes are designed to teach you how to practice the things you'd like them to be good at, even if it's just for a quick picture!

Looking to improve their photo skills before the holidays? Now is the time to start! Click the link in our bio or give us a call for details or to register for classes 🐾

The best part about training? You get to use it your way! These are just some of the practical applications for behaviors we teach in our Elementary Clicker classes. Have you taught your dog any of these familiar behaviors? How do you use them? Let us know in the comments!

It's hot outside, and HOTTER on the field! But as we start to move towards cooler weather, our sport classes are the place to be. Whether you like the time outdoors or prefer four walls and a roof, Agility & Nose Work are both fantastic for your dog. Build confidence, connection, and communication that can carry into your everyday.
