This is not cute!! That puppy is clearly not enjoying the interaction. We see many pups and adult dogs that don’t like being handled and have learned that biting is the only way to get people to stop handling them. Luckily We have force free protocols to help dogs learn to trust their humans again.
If you want to learn how to prevent problem behaviors or rehabilitate your dog from prior trauma, we are here to help.

Our day school doggos are soaking up this wonderful weather today!

Why not let us do the heavy lifting during your work week? In our Day School program, our certified trainers work with your pup during the day, teaching essential skills using positive reinforcement. Then, we’ll coach you on how to reinforce those behaviors at home and out in the real world.

very interaction we have with our dogs is a learning opportunity for them - whether it’s intentional on our part or not. In fact, the majority of our dogs’ ā€œtrainingā€ comes in the form of routine interactions. With this in mind, it’s so incredibly important that we look for good behavior and reinforce it every opportunity we get!
