Puppy pushups may seem overrated, but there are a TON of adult dogs that can’t do them.

💡Pro tip: Make sure you are alternating your terminal marker between sit and down, so that you’re dog doesn’t start to favor/anticipate one position over the other.

Each year since I’ve gone into business for myself (January marks SIX years) I get the pleasure of not only meeting a ton of new faces, but seeing my favorite familiar faces.

2025 was no different.
I am incredibly thankful for all of the things I was able to accomplish with my dogs, with your dogs, and the new relationships formed.

I love your dogs like they’re my own, and being able to watch your dogs grow and learn alongside YOU is my favorite part of this job.

Lucky enough to both start and end the year with my girly Sasha, and my other two bestie girls Nina and Parsely. These families have been with me from almost the beginning. 🤍

Mabel is an angel on earth.
Mabel is also a bit more nervous.

And that’s okay!

There’s no rush, especially with baby puppies and especially in the beginning.

Building that trust and bond is so incredibly important to me, especially on day one 🤍

It IS nice.
It’s so incredibly nice helping better the lives of my clients and their dogs.

But it’s also HARD.
The constant grind to make sure business stays steady because otherwise you don’t get paid, the constant attempt to balance work and life, the constant stress, the constant cleaning.

I’d never give it up, I’d never change a thing (except to maybe have a constant, endless flow of dogs so I never have to worry again) because I love this life and what I do.

And I love all of YOU, the reason I get to live my dream.

So yes, it is nice.
But it is hard.

2025 has been a year that’s opened my eyes.

It’s taken me a bit, but I’ve learned to stand up for myself, my dogs, my clients and the people I care about.

I’ve learned who is actually here for me, and who had ulterior motives.

I’ve learned that some people won’t like me simply for who I am, and I’ve learned that because I can’t change that, there’s no sense in worrying about it.

I’ve found my people-those that I want to work with professionally and personally.

And finally? I’ve learned that I don’t care. I don’t care to block those that have decided they don’t like me.

If you want to see me fail so bad, if you’re praying on my downfall, you can have a front row seat.

I promise that there will be times that I fail.
But I also promise that I WILL succeed. I’ll succeed far beyond what you thought I could, what I thought I could.

Thank you for the lessons, 2025.
I can’t wait for 2026 ✨

Muzzle training has become a fad, and for good reason!

Muzzles can protect your dog, yourself, and other people.

Here are a few reasons why I muzzle training:

✅Sport work
✅Comfortability. If my dog ever has to wear a muzzle during an emergency situation, I want it to be as low stress as possible.

A few reasons others might muzzle:

✅Prevent a dog from eating unsafe/disgusting things
✅Peace of mind

Do you muzzle train your dog?
Why/why not?
