When your chewy stick is bigger than your attention span. 🦴😉

Moose practiced settling in a distracting environment, relaxing in a place, and making good choices! Moose tends to spook easily and have the jumpy scaries! Working in these environments helps create and maintain neutrality. These moments may look simple, but they’re the foundation of a confident AND mannered dog 🥰

Great job Moose!

July is coming, and with it comes foreworks!! Now is the time to begin preparing whether this is your dog's 1st 4th of July, or their 10th!! If you have a new puppy, here are some tips to get them ready 🎆😎🔥:

Play desensitization videos- There are lots of YouTube videos you can play for your puppy that play firework sounds for hours! Choose a time when your puppy is happy, such as when they are eating or playing with you, to turn the video on. Start out very quiet, and slowly up the volume (never go crazy loud). This may sound silly but it genuinely makes a difference!!

Dont take them with you to see fireworks- This is a risky move with a dog of any age, but especially a developing puppy! As tempting as it is to bring them, even just in the car, they are much better off at home. If they get scared at this age, it can last for the rest of their life!

Tips for dogs of all ages and dogs who are afraid of fireworks:

Crate time- Dont be afraid to use that crate! Crates are never punishment, they are a comfot zone where our dogs can go when they need a break. You can even cover their crate with a blanket and turn on a sound machine/YouTube to help make things more comfortable, just make sure there is airflow so your pup doesn't get too hot!

CBD treats- CBD treats are a great thing to have on the 4th! They are natural, inexpensive, and easy to find, they wont make your dog moapy and will help in taking the edge off a bit! We highly recoment the "Treatables" brand, but there are many great options out there!

Keep your dog inside as much as possible, and ALWAYS leash when they go outside- This is somthing really really important!! It is so easy for dogs to slip outside when the door opens, or suddenly learn how to jump your fence when they are afraid. Make sure that if your dog is outside, they are on leash to prevent them from escaping; and try to take them to potty before/after fireworks are being set off. While your dog is inside, ensure they cannot slip out the door while your family or company enter and exits. Some ideas here are crating your dog, closing them in a bedroom or other comfortable space, or using baby gates.

Identification- Having your dog microchiped, wearing their tags with your information, wearing a tracker, or even all of the above is so important! If they do escape, these things could save your dogs life and get them back to you!

So many dogs go missing this time of year. Make sure you have a plan in place to keep your dog safe, happy, cocomfortable, and at home! We are wishing everyone a fun and safe Independence Day! 🎇☀️

What a wonderful day it was for a race yesterday!! Heartly and I (Olivia) ran our very first Cannicross race and absolutely loved it! Now I am NOT a runner, so we just went out to have fun! Heartly was an absolute beast and naturally took to all of the obstacles, I just had to try and keep up! It was great to see SO many owners getting out and having a great time with their dogs. We will deffinetly be attending more events like this in the near future!

Meet Maggie! 🐾

Today was Maggie’s very first day train with me this morning, and she has already blown me away with the progress she made in just a few hours. Maggie is working through or 4 week Adv. Obedience Program.

Maggie is a sweet, enthusiastic girl who is incredibly excited about the world around her. Everything is interesting! People, dogs, smells, movement oh my goodness those dang bunny rabbits, you name it, she wants to check it out. Because of that, she has a hard time settling down and relaxing, especially when attention is involved or when she spots other dogs on walks.

A big focus of today was helping Maggie learn that she doesn’t have to be “on” all the time. We worked on relaxation, engagement, leash manners, and teaching her that staying connected with her human can be more rewarding than everything happening around her.

What impressed me most was how quickly she started catching on. By the end of our session, Maggie was able to settle into a nice down and actually relax for just a few minutes! A huge win for a dog who is constantly ready for the next exciting thing! 🎉

We’re building the foundation for better manners, calmer walks, stronger engagement, and a deeper bond with her humans through fun training and relationship-building activities. She’s a smart girl with a lot of potential, and I can’t wait to watch her continue to grow.

Way to go, Maggie! 💙🐶✨

🐾 Everyone meet Ranger! 🐾

Just look at that face! 😍

Ranger recently started our foundational Puppy Program, this includes many day trains and private lessons! He had his first day train this week and did AMAZING!

He’s an incredibly energetic, happy-go-lucky pup who is always ready for the next adventure. While all that enthusiasm can sometimes come out as barking, pulling, jumping, lunging, and a LOTS of nipping, it’s also what makes him so much fun to work with!

One thing that really impressed me during our first session was how focused he was already willing to be. For such a young, excited dog, he showed some really nice engagement and a genuine desire to work. Once he realized training could be fun, you could almost see the wheels turning as he started making better choices and checking in more often.

We’re currently working on building leash manners, impulse control, engagement, and teaching him how to slow down and think before reacting to the world around him. He has a lot of personality packed into that adorable little body, but he also has so much potential.

I can’t wait to continue watching his confidence, focus, and skills grow over the coming weeks. Stay tuned for more Ranger updates because this handsome boy is just getting started! 💙🐾

Please welcome the sweetest girl, Angel!! She is working on some leash manners and gaining some relaxation skills! She has such a wonderful drive to play and to work, but has trouble calming down. Angel had an absolutely wonderful first lesson and we can't wait to watch as she learns even more!!

We had Miss Indy with us today for a bath and trim!! She is a very nervous lady, but was very sweet and gentle throughout the whole process. We took extra time and care to make sure she felt comfortable and, since she likes other dogs, we even brought Heartly out for alittle extra comfort! Making grooming a good experience and keeping up with that care is incredibly important. We loved having Indy and cant wait to see her again!

Finally a BACH TRIP post from the Bride☺️👰🏼‍♀️

Two years ago, Clementine wasn’t a service dog, a demo dog, or my business partner. She was a dog I found in a dumpster who just needed a chance.

Fast forward to today, and she’s traveled with me, helped me grow as a trainer, stood by my side through some of the biggest moments of my life (including helping her dad propose last year!), and this past weekend, she got to be part of my bachelorette trip. 🤍

While my girls and I spent the weekend relaxing by the pool, crafting, shopping, laughing, and making memories before the wedding, Clementine was right there beside me. Watching her confidently settle in any environment, hang out, enjoy the sunshine, and be part of all the festivities just reminds me just how far she’s come.

Clementine has taught me more than I could ever teach her. She has shaped the trainer I am, influenced the way I work with dogs, and reminded me time and time again that sometimes all a dog needs is someone willing to believe in them.

My bachelorette weekend wasn’t just special because I got to celebrate with my favorite people it was special because one of those “people” was the little dumpster dog who really changed my life!

I’d say she’s earned her titles: business partner, best friend, service dog, and in just 80 days, ring protector. 💍

Thank you, Clementine, for doing life with me. I couldn’t imagine this journey without you. ❤️

And of course Olivia and Heartly shared this amazing weekend with us!! Watching these two work alongside Clementine and me throughout the weekend was so special. From relaxing poolside to joining in on our adventures, Heartly was the perfect travel companion and reminder of the incredible bond that can exist between a handler and their dog. I’m so grateful to have friends who understand this journey and to have gotten to share such a special weekend with both of them🫶🏼

Soaking up every moment of this season of life!

We are SO proud of Azul!! He is only on lesson 3 and has already come so far. Today we worked on settling and teaching him to relax, especially around other dogs where he can be a bit reactive. So many people jump to working on obedience or using huge corrections in an effort to "fix" dog reactivity but the truth is, neither of those are the way to go. Teaching relaxation comes first as the "root" problem, and Azul has already such amazing progress!! Heartly was a wonderful helper, as always, providing a controlled distraction for Azul. We couldn't be happier with his progress and cant wait to see him again next week!

That Summer heat is officially here, and we at Fetch and Focus cannot wait to enjoy it SAFELY!! 🏖

To keep our dogs safe we have three things we always do: know the signs, watch the dog for those signs often, and prevention prevention PREVENTION!!

Watch for the signs:
Check in on your dog often!! Watch what their tongue is doing as this is a huge indicator for temperature. You can also feel the inside of your dogs lips to see if they are hydrated. Wet = hydrated and sticky = needs some water. The biggest thing here is to make sure you are checking on them every few minutes.

Know the signs:
So how do I know how hot my dog is? Well the easiest way to tell is to look at their tongue! Panting with their tongue in their mouth means they're alittle warm but they're fine, panting with their tongue slightly out of the mouth means they're getting hot but they are still fine (but do make sure to keep them hydrated here and stop in the shade here and there), panting with their tongue extended and rounded at the end (shovel tongue) means they need to cool off NOW, and if their tongue is hanging out to the side or WAY out of their mouth that could be the beginning of heatstroke! See photos below for examples. If your dog is shaking, vomiting, drooling, in addition to panting they are likely in heat stroke and need to be cooled off then taken to the vet! If this happens, move them somewhere cool right away and use cool (NO ICE/ICE WATER) on their legs/feet, belly, and arm pits as well as a fan to slowly cool them off. Using ice or submerging the dog can send them into shock, just stay calm and let them cool off slowly.

Prevention:
First and for most watch the weather and know what temperatures are too hot for your dog's coat type (if you cant go out, maybe play some enrichment games inside)! Next check the pavement, hold the palm of your hand on it pressing firmly for 10 seconds. If it is too hot for you its too hot for them, maybe try walking in the grass next too the path, otherwise stay inside. Offer your dog cold water VERY often, ice is a great option for dogs that aren't already in heat stroke. Let your dog swim or dip their feet in water!! Cooling the feet/legs works wonders for regulating your dogs temperature. And lastly find some shade!! You'll have to cater to your dog often on these hot days, you may have to stop your walk multiple times to sit in the shade for a few minutes. Bonus points if you have a cooling mat!
