Scent work is deeply rewarding for dogs—it’s how they make sense of the world. In this clip, I’m introducing scent targeting, the first building block of detection training.

Completing the Karen Pryor Academy Dog Trainer Professional Program was one of the most rewarding and defining moments in my journey as a trainer! Becoming a Certified Training Partner (KPA CTP) not only deepened my understanding of behavior science and shaping but also transformed how I communicate and teach.

The program challenged me to think critically, train with precision, and teach with clarity, compassion, and creativity — values that now guide every session I run. I’m incredibly proud to be part of a community that champions humane, evidence-based training and inspires continuous growth.

This achievement isn’t just a certification — it’s a lifelong commitment to helping dogs and their people thrive together.

Every good training session starts with getting your dog to focus on you and wait for your cue.

Teaching a simple still stand is such an easy way to build that focus! It helps your dog learn patience and self-control — super useful for leash walking, recall, and even grooming time.

In this clip, The owner clicked the moment Max kept all four paws on the ground. Soon, he figured out that staying calm gets him way more rewards than jumping around.

💡 Tip: Keep sessions short and fun. Reward your dog the second they stay still — calm behavior pays off!

In this video, I demonstrate a visual cue. (Sitting on a chair) = Lying down next to me. This is a combined cue( technical chain) and an essential technique for taking your dog out of the house to be a well-behaved citizen.

Often, we unconsciously perform certain actions, and these actions are interpreted as commands by dogs who are highly sensitive to body language. That’s why many people ask me, “Hey, why does my dog suddenly sit when I didn’t do anything?” or “Why do I have to say ‘sit’ multiple times before my dog sits?”

You can test this with your dog. Give the “sit” command, but keep your body upright and try not to move your head. See if your dog sits immediately.
