Let's welcome Chili🌶️ to our Young Guns Board and Train. This 9 month pup is here with us to work on her leash skills, obedience, socialization and confidence building.
While all these things are important, the one thing that has brought her out of her shell is play.
She's a mix of working breeds and her fulfillment was lacking, which in turn has lead to challenging behaviors.
Once we unlocked her drive and gave her purpose her whole demeanor changed. She loves to work, when she's busy she's happy when she's happy she's less fearful of our resident dogs and her inappropriate jumping, anxious peeing has stopped. She is more comfortable seeing people while on walks and her focus is amazing (the beauty of working dogs).
I started with her the way I do with all dogs, leash walks, building relationship and structure, when she was comfortable with us we started teaching fetch and tug and the joy was palpable.
Every dog is different, every dogs needs are unique, and every dog deserves patience and opportunity.
I am so grateful to her owner for allowing me the opportunity to make a difference with this sweet little Chili Dawg 🌶️🐶
Train, play and learn with your dog.
