Nick, one of my assistant trainers, and myself ventured into some new walking trails last week. Matt wasn't with us so we discussed it.

We also talk about how adding just a small amount of speed to the walk can sometimes help your dog's behavior.

Talking about thunderstorms never gets old because there are people and dogs that struggle with it all the time. Hopefully this episode can give you some insight and help you out a bit.

Jemma had one of those days the other day and wasn't feeling well. My poor wife had to deal with it since Jemma was home for the day. And we are happy to have our first Board & Train dog back with the new program!

I think it's important to know about tail behavior and what it means. Here is the 411 on some basic knowledge for you.

Not many people realize that when a dog shakes his/her entire body there is a VERY good reason for it. Especially when it comes to their behavior.

We decided to experiment a bit during our pack walk this week which was fun. Plus I had an interesting lesson that I had Matt help me with which led us down the road of talking about my beginnings of the business at my house.

Last week I made a big mistake with my dogs, just going too far putting them into an environment that was hard to handle. I make mistakes just like everyone else, I want you all to know that!

I had an interesting walk last Monday and Matt and I had a very in-depth conversation about what happened with a certain bloodhound with a certain tool.

It's such an amazing feeling knowing that I finally finished my goal of interviewing a dog trainer from every state. I took some time to sit down and go through the list of trainers that I spoke to including some highlights that resonated with me. I have been lucky to create many new relationships and have grown my network so I can help as many dogs as I can.

I am LOVING our new daycare program, we are fulfilling dogs more than we ever have. My staff is loving the program too as it's much more interactive than our previous program.
