🎉🐾 Welcome Jeb to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾 🎉

Jeb the Goldendoodle came in like a wrecking ball—a professional counter surfer, food thief extraordinaire, and serial jumper. If there was a snack within reach (or even kind of close), Jeb was on it. And greetings? They came with paws to the chest and a whole lot of enthusiasm.

But with clear structure, consistency, and a focus on impulse control, Jeb learned that calm gets the cookie—and the affection. Now he’s mastering polite greetings, keeping all four paws on the floor, and respecting boundaries around food (even the good stuff!).

Way to go, Jeb! You’ve turned from chaos to class, and your family is so proud.

🎉🐾 Welcome Ainsley to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾 🎉

This sweet Golden Retriever puppy stole my heart! Ainsley was full of curiosity, energy, and that classic Golden Retriever charm. During her training, we worked on building strong foundations—teaching her patience, engagement, and impulse control while keeping her playful personality intact.

She learned quickly and loved every training session (especially when meals were involved)! With consistency and structure, Ainsley is well on her way to becoming a well-mannered and confident pup. I can’t wait to see how she grows!

🎉🐾 Welcome Jethro to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾 🎉

Meet Jethro, the majestic European Great Dane! This gentle giant came in for training to work on impulse control, engagement, and overall manners. With his size and strength, clear communication and structure were key to helping him be the best version of himself.

Jethro made amazing progress, learning to focus in busy environments, walk politely on leash, and respond reliably to commands—no matter how exciting the world around him is! Now, he’s not just a head-turner because of his looks but also because of his stellar behavior.

🎉🐾 Welcome Nyx to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾 🎉

This little Mini Bernedoodle brought the fluff and the fun to training! Nyx may be small, but she’s full of personality and learned quickly that good behavior = lots of love (and kibble!). We focused on building her confidence, sharpening her obedience, and making sure she could handle the world with ease.

Now, she’s rocking her training and ready to take on any adventure with her family!

🎉🐾 Welcome Rosie to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾 🎉

Rosie the Bernedoodle came in with a whole lot of enthusiasm—and not a lot of impulse control! This high-drive girl loved to jump, pull on the leash, surf the counters, and bolt out the door any chance she got. Once she was loose, coming back wasn’t exactly on her agenda!

Through structured training, clear communication, and plenty of guidance, Rosie learned how to channel her excitement in a more productive way. Now, she walks politely on a leash, keeps all four paws on the ground, respects thresholds, and actually comes back when called! She’s still the happy, playful pup her family adores—just with much better manners and a whole lot more reliability.

🎉🐾 Welcome Lady to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾 🎉

Lady, the Doberman puppy, has officially graduated from training 🎉. She came from a tough start in a bad breeder situation, but she didn’t let that hold her back. This fearless girl tackled training head-on, building confidence, structure, and focus along the way.

Lady is proof that the right guidance and the right owner can make all the difference. Excited to see her continue to thrive!

🎉🐾 Welcome Hobbes to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾 🎉

This sweet Golden Retriever came to training full of enthusiasm but needed some structure to channel all that energy. We worked on impulse control, leash manners, and building solid obedience in different environments. Now, Hobbes is a rockstar at staying focused, even when distractions are high!

Watching him grow in confidence and responsiveness has been so rewarding. His family now has a well-mannered pup who still gets to enjoy all the fun—just with a little more self-control! Way to go, Hobbes!

🎉🐾 Welcome Desmond to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾🎉

Desmond, the Irish Setter, had a solid foundation and an incredible bond with his dad, but the moment they stepped into public, it was like his training vanished. Distractions took over, and all that focus disappeared. Over our time together, we worked on bridging that gap—helping Desmond learn that listening and engagement don’t stop when the environment changes. Now, he and his dad can confidently navigate the world together, with his training intact no matter where they go!

🎉🐾 Welcome Miller to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾🎉

Congratulations to Miller, the handsome black Lab, on completing his training! Miller came in ready to learn, and we focused on sharpening his obedience and building the skills he needs to thrive.

Since Miller lives on the lake and loves to swim, we worked hard on building a solid recall to ensure he always comes back when called, no matter how tempting the water might be. Over the course of his training, Miller also worked on consistency, engagement, and navigating distractions like a pro.

Great job, Miller—you’ve been such a joy to train! I can’t wait to see all the adventures you and your family will have together. Keep up the amazing work!

🎉🐾 Welcome Kane to the Ridgeside K9 Family! 🐾🎉

Meet Kane, the extraordinarily driven chocolate Lab puppy who took training by storm! Kane came in with boundless energy and laser focus, ready to tackle anything in his path. While his natural drive was remarkable, his family wanted to channel it into productive behaviors that would set him up for success.

Through focused training, we worked on building impulse control, sharpening engagement, and creating balance in his daily life. Kane’s intelligence and determination made him a joy to train, and he soaked up every lesson like a pro.
