  • How Important Is It?

    How important is it?  This is a question I ask myself when I am working on a training technique with Shep.  And especially when he presents some resistance.   Listen in to see what I mean and what happened to us on our hike this week!

  • Unwanted Doggy Approaching Tips

    Have you ever been out on a leash walk and had an unwanted unleashed dog approaching your dog?  How did you handle it?  Shep and I have had some encounters with people and dogs and even cars that we've been able to manage.  No doggy fights to date.  Thankfully.  But, we avoid dog parks and places where this might be more likely.   Listen in and see what I've read recently about unleashed dogs and how we can best manage this.

  • The All Powerful Stick

    Shep isn't lured or calmed easily with food when we are training or working outside of the house.  Food works just fine for us in the house. But when we are out and about, a stick is our magic wand.  Listen in and see how we plan to use our all powerful stick at a boarding drop off coming up.

  • Doggy Hot Spot Treatment

    Shep has developed a hidden hot spot that he just can't leave alone.  So, our training is taking a bit of backseat right now.  Or maybe I should say it's being redirected.   Listen in and see what's up!

  • Foundational Recall Training Revisited

    Shep and I are taking a couple of steps back this week.  We plan to focus the next 7 days on foundational recall training and name reassurance.  He had a bit of an episode barking at a vehicle while walking this week on leash.  So, I'm taking a step back - big step back - and that's perfectly fine.  He needs to know that all is well and I've got his back.  Join us this week and listen in to what we're doing.  And if you have a reactive pup and would like to join us, we invite you and would love to hear from you. Feel free to leave us a voicemail message.

  • Walking Away From The Crazy
    Shep and I continue to work on impulse control.  Specifically this week when we are out hiking and playing stick.  And I've learned that when he's tired he's unable to make good choices.  So, we just wrap up our play time and come on home.  Listen in and see what we're working on for fun this week.

  • Doggy Time Out Room
    This week I've decided to convert some space into a Doggy Time Out Room.  This is now a gated room that provides Shep with a quiet, darker space to unwind.  And gives me some time as well.  So far, it's working out great.  Listen in and see what we're up to.

  • Stay & Wait Differences
    Shep and I are working right now on stronger impulse control.  And I've chosen the "stay" and "wait" commands to help us with that.  Listen in to hear what we do with these two magical words and you may leave us a voicemail message to listen to if you would like.  Here's the link:
