What are everyone’s plans for Halloween?! Are you taking the kids trick-or-treating, handing out candy, going to a Halloween event, or just staying home and enjoying the night? 🎃

Are your pups dressing up this year?! 🐶 If so, what are they going to be?! I always love seeing everyone’s cute costume pictures! 🐾

Tell us your Halloween plans in the comments, and if you have pictures of your pups dressed up, we definitely want to see them!

Look at this puppy class! 🐾

Mabel the Corgi, Penny the Heeler mix, and Nova the German Shepherd mix have been working on SO much already! We’ve covered sit, down, go to bed, short stays, heel positioning for loose-leash walking, recall, hand targeting, and eye contact.

This is such a good group of puppies, and I’m pretty proud of the progress they’re making! ❤️

Puppy classes are about so much more than just teaching them behaviors. Proper socialization is a HUGE part of a puppy’s development. That means learning about different sounds, surfaces, textures, environments, and how to safely interact with other dogs and people.

It’s not about letting puppies run up to every dog or person they meet. It’s about helping them build confidence, learn how to navigate the world, and have positive experiences along the way.

I love being apart of these sweet babies early life ♥️

Auggie is the one in the middle, adopted from Loving Paws Adoption Center (Pulaski County Humane Society) ❤️ He is OBSESSED with food, but as we discovered, it’s not just Auggie we have to worry about… ALL of them are food obsessed! 🤣 but he’s also a super chill boy because he’ll let Killian or the kitten steal it right out from under him. 😂

We put the kitten up and we worked with both the pups. It was so much fun. 🤩

Good morning 😅

Congratulations to Yeti, the Great Pyrenees, and Woody, the Hound mix, for completing our Behavior Modification Training Course! ❤️🐾

Yeti had a rough start in life. She was found as a stray, underweight, and dealing with a skin condition, allergies, and an ear infection. Today, she’s as healthy as she can be and absolutely rocked her training!

The family originally planned to work with just Yeti, but Woody loved every second of training, too, so now they have TWO smart pups showing off their skills! 😂❤️

Door manners were the biggest priority for the family, but both dogs also worked on sit, down, stay, leave it, loose leash walking, and recall.

So proud of these two and love seeing how far they’ve come! 🐾

Poor sweet Ruby. ❤️ She’s started developing a condition that’s causing her paws to turn inward. Unfortunately, nobody knows for sure exactly what’s going on with her yet, but her orthopedic specialist suspects it may be carpal tendon laxity.

For now, we’re working on physical therapy with her to help improve her balance and build and maintain her muscle strength. ❤️

I’ve known this sweet girl and her mama for years, and they are both absolutely wonderful. 🥹❤️

I wanted to share this, not to bash the owner, but to point out what’s being missed here. I’m sure they made this video thinking it was cute, but the dog is showing signs of being uncomfortable with what’s going on.

I think a lot of times, it’s not that owners don’t care about their dogs being uncomfortable but that they don’t recognize the signs they’re seeing. Small dogs especially tend to get overlooked because their behavior is often brushed off as “cute”. I have seen small dogs growling and biting called adorable, it’s infuriating.

Dachshunds naturally have those big puppy eyes, so you can’t always go by their eyes alone. This is why it’s SO important to look at the rest of their body language, too. (This is for any breed as well!) This little guy’s body is extremely stiff, and they’re lip licking as well. These are signs of discomfort, especially with a human being so close to their treat. The dog is communicating that they’re uncomfortable with this interaction and need some space. If this communication continues to be ignored, this dog can escalate to growling, snapping or even biting. 

This is exactly why learning your dog’s body language is SO important. Our dogs are constantly communicating with us, but if we don’t know what to look for, we can easily miss what they’re trying to tell us.

When we’re making cute videos of our dogs for views, we need to make sure our dogs are actually enjoying what’s happening, too. But this goes beyond videos. It applies to everyday life, too!

🚫 Why we don’t use slip leads (unless it’s a true emergency).

Let’s be honest about slip leads. They tighten around a dog’s neck when tension is applied. That is how they’re designed to work. They tighten, put pressure on the neck, and rely on that pressure to control the dog. So a a slip lead is essentially a noose. And I know that sounds bad, but that’s exactly why we have a problem with them.

Every time a dog pulls, the loop tightens. That pressure can cause pain, it restricts breathing, and damage the delicate structures in the neck. It can also cause a dog to panic, fight against the leash, or become even more stressed on walks.

I know someone will say “But mine has a stopper!”

Okay, but a stopper doesn’t magically make it safe. It might prevent the loop from closing completely and strangling your dog , but the pressure is still going directly onto your dog’s neck.

We understand that slip leads can be useful in certain emergency situations, like quickly securing a loose dog with no collar. But there’s a difference between using one briefly when you need to get a dog to safety and choosing one for everyday walks or training.

Your dog shouldn’t have to experience pain or struggle to breathe just to learn how to walk on a leash. This is not okay.

A harness is the safest option. For powerful dogs or dogs that pull you can use a dual leash system that attaches to front and back clip of the harness on the dog.
