Impulse control is one of the most important skills we can teach our dogs—
It’s not just about obedience. It’s about safety.

Whether it’s ignoring a squirrel across the street or staying calm when a snake slithers across the trail, teaching your dog to pause and think can literally be life-saving.

Let’s see your pup in action!
Drop a photo in the comments showing how your dog practices impulse control—whether it’s waiting at the door, sitting patiently for a treat, or walking calmly past a distraction. We love seeing your training in action!

Why do we... Puppy Socialization?

Puppy Socialization: The Foundation of Lifelong Confidence

When clients call us with their little puppies, they often dream of achieving amazing recall, perfect manners, and spot-on obedience commands. While these skills are crucial, we believe that proper socialization lays the true groundwork for a happy, balanced dog.

So, what is proper socialization?
It means safely and methodically introducing your puppy to as many environmental stimuli as possible—in a positive, controlled manner. Instead of letting your puppy interact with every unfamiliar dog on the street, we emphasize quality over quantity. Meeting only dogs you know well helps prevent that one negative interaction which can set your pup back, or even cause irreparable damage to their social development.

Our ultimate goal? Puppies that grow up to be confident dogs—ones that thrive in busy, distracting environments while staying focused on their handler. A well-socialized puppy is better equipped to handle the world with calm and composure, making training and daily adventures all the more rewarding.

What are some places or things you're puppy may be struggling with when exposed to it?

Beyond their impressive professional accomplishments, they’re also beloved family companions known for their loyalty and protective nature.

Fun Fact Friday!

Using play in your dog training sessions isn't just fun—it’s a powerful tool that strengthens your bond and boosts learning! When you incorporate games into training, your pup becomes more engaged and motivated. Play turns challenging tasks into enjoyable activities, reduces stress, and even sparks creativity in problem-solving. Whether it’s a game of fetch with hidden treats or a playful tug-of-war with a twist of commands, every moment is an opportunity to reinforce positive behavior and build trust. Plus, a playful training environment keeps sessions dynamic and exciting, ensuring your furry friend looks forward to learning every day. So, next time you plan a training session, mix in a little playtime and watch your dog's skills—and tail wagging—skyrocket!

Helpful Tip Tuesday!!!

If you own a breed with a lot of hair, like a Poodle, Yorkie, or Doodle, ear care is very important for keeping your furry friend healthy. Regular ear checks—about once a week—help you catch any buildup of hair, dirt, or moisture that can lead to infections. When you gently remove excess hair from inside the ears using a dog-safe tool or wipe, you're preventing bacteria from growing and ensuring your pet stays comfortable. A little time spent on this routine can go a long way in keeping your dog's ears clean and happy!

FUN FACT FRIDAY!

Do All Your Dogs Need Training?

We often hear this question: “If I train one dog, will my other dog’s bad habits affect them?” The answer is yes! Dogs learn from each other—both the good and the bad. If one dog is allowed to break the rules, your newly trained pup is more likely to follow suit.

For a balanced, well-behaved home, all dogs should be held to the same standards. This makes daily life simpler, easier, and more enjoyable for everyone.

At Nexus K9, we offer customized training programs that fit your needs and budget—even for multiple dogs. Let’s create a plan that works for you!
