🐾 Meet Today's Star Student Dog: Bella! 🌟

Today, we're celebrating the determined dog Bella and her devoted owners, Jane and Stan!

The Challenge and Commitment
Jane and Stan brought Bella to Your Proper Pooch to address a common, yet challenging, behavior: dog reactivity.

We often don't know the full history of a shelter dog, and sometimes, a dog needs extra support to overcome their past experiences. Jane and Stan have chosen to meet Bella where she is and are committed to her success.

Progress and Praise
Trainer Marilyn is thrilled with the progress this team is making:

"Bella is showing progress and is gaining confidence in herself. Stan and Jane have shown a real commitment to her training. Bella is a happy dog to work with and is eager to learn. I'm eager to see more progress as we begin introducing other dogs to her class time."

This is a huge step! Building a dog's confidence is key to managing reactivity. We applaud Jane and Stan for their dedication and Bella for her eagerness to learn!

What's Next?
The next step in Bella's training journey is the carefully managed introduction of other dogs to her class time, a critical phase in helping her generalize her calm behavior in the presence of others.

Do you have a reactive dog that needs some help? Reach out to us and let's see what we can do. New classes begin January 7th and 8th.

A trained dog knows how to behave around guests and how to relax at home. A little training goes a long way! We can help you achieve this with your dog! Contact us for information about January classes!
