My regular schedule is pretty full these days with limited space open for training.

I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in getting their dogs a little exercise in the evening or once or twice a week.

Looking for dogs near or within driving distance to the Greenbelt.

$25/hour for a fun time

$35/hour if they need leash/manners training and a fun time

Fischer is the BEST boy. But his squirrel and bird instincts are STRONG. If you aren't paying attention when he goes from happy to "I see something!!" you be...

Hi!

We are still here and we are still having fun! Just not big fans of social media these days.

Too busy working with dogs and having a good time.

Hope everyone else is getting outside as often as possible and enjoying life.

A month ago I was huffing and puffing following these dogs in the snow. Now I just get to float along with them.

Going to use this with as many dogs as possible. They love it and so do my feet!

The snowy truth part 1 : getting one good picture requires at least half a dozen that look like these others. 😜

The hardest part of training is the human part.

1.Dogs are animals, they are not people. This makes them better than us actually. Instinct rules, not negative emotions and lies are not possible.

2.Don't Panic - what most "fights" are is just animal communication.

3. Be confident and in charge, panicking will only escalate a bad moment.

4. Learn to shut up (internally and externally) If the dog's not responding to you then you're probably lying to yourself In a big or small way and don't know it. Take a breath and try again.

5. "My dog hates" and other phrases that put human emotions and excuses in the mix are NEVER the truth. They can and will let things go if given the chance and guidance. Feeling bad for them instead of helping them is no different than just accepting they will always be "crazy".

I believe there is no one correct method for training or rehabilitation and each dog is different. The only incorrect ways are ones that use force, fear, pain, or any kind of negativity beyond saying NO when correcting a behavior.

Some tools are needed for safety that other force free training doesn't recommend, but in reality safety requires a little extra now and then.

Finally the time of year I can take pictures to show the beautiful dogs I work with without battling the sun and digital camera technology. 😜
