A huge congratulations to our recent Essential Etiquette Class graduates! 🎓🐾

This group was such a joy to work with. Every team showed up ready to learn, support one another, encourage progress, and celebrate the small wins along the way. Watching both dogs and handlers grow in confidence each week was incredibly rewarding.

Thank you all for bringing such positive energy, kindness, and fun to every session. We’re so proud of the progress you and your pups made! ❤️

Both teams have worked so hard and should be incredibly proud of how far they’ve come.

Congratulations, Team Zelda and Team Listo! 💛

Watching this team transform has been incredible! 👏

Our client has been an absolute rockstar throughout training, and Meco has risen right alongside her. Through consistency, patience, and hard work, they’ve become such a strong team together.

Not only have we seen huge improvements on walks, but the progress has carried over into everyday life too — including something that once felt overwhelming… enjoying car rides! 🚗🐾

Training is so much more than teaching behaviors — it’s about building trust, confidence, and communication. We are so proud of how far these two have come! 💙

Congratulations, Team Meco! 🎉

Congratulations to Team Walter on graduating from our Top Notch Teens class!

It has been such a joy watching Team Walter grow, learn, and build confidence together throughout their training journey.

Walter first started with us in puppy class and has continued working his way up every step of the way — and we couldn’t be more proud of his progress.

Thank you to Walter’s family for your trust, consistency, and dedication to training. We’re so excited to see all the amazing things ahead for Team Walter! 🐾

🎓🐾 Congratulations to our newest Essential Etiquette graduates! 🐶👏

These teams worked hard learning practical everyday skills like Sit, Down, Stay, Come When Called, Leave It, and walking nicely on leash. We are so proud of all the progress they made!

It was truly a pleasure having these teams in class, and we can’t wait to see all the great things ahead for Team Trudy, Team Scotty, and Team Rhea! 💙🐾

🎉🐾 Congratulations to Team Ruby! 🐾🎉

Team Ruby just graduated our Puppy Prep 4-pack of private training program, and we couldn’t be more proud of their progress! ✨

They came into lessons already with a solid obedience foundation, and together we leveled things up by focusing on:
✔️ Impulse control
✔️ Calm, confident neighborhood walks
✔️ Polite greetings
✔️ Willingly giving up “found treasures”
✔️ Relaxing on a mat to prevent counter-surfing and other mischief

We’re excited to welcome Team Ruby into our Top Notch Teen group class, where they’ll continue strengthening these awesome life skills! 🐶🎓

👏 Congratulations, Team Ruby! Your hard work and teamwork is paying off, and we know the best is yet to come.
