Rita, who is normally very anxious when visitors come into her home, is pictured here lying quietly with a stuffed Kong surrounded by people. Her owners spent a lot of time working on their handling skills, proper management, as well as training exercises to build Rita’s confidence in order to be able to achieve this goal of theirs. I am so thrilled to see that their hard work paid off & everyone was able to enjoy their family gathering 🐶😀💞

Rainy day happy hour. Pizza & booze for the humans; frozen peanut butter stuffed Kongs for the dogs. What activities keep your dogs happy on rainy days?

Here is Izzy proving how exhausting learning can be.
Her mom reports she barely made it through the door before she crashed & burned. 🤣😴🤣

I generally don’t recommend training 2 dogs at the same time, but there’s an exception to every rule, right?
This was our last session & my client requested I bring Skip, and that we try out some agility equipment for fun. Here she is training her corgi Rosie, while also doing a better job training my dog than I do. Maybe there’s an assistant in my future….😉🐶
