Bruno's Backyard

Bruno's Backyard Dog training for owners and dogs that finds balance between the dog's and owner energy to promote ca We’re working on a Veggie Cookie, so stay tuned.

The idea of Bruno’s Backyard started out many years ago as an indoor dog park, providing a climate-controlled area that dogs would play at any time of year. While attending school online for a Bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering, I was always being asked for a business card to train dogs when walking Bruno in the 1-2 mile radius of our home. Bruno’s calm and balanced energy usually offset

s other dogs that normally did not get along with others. I learned early to let Bruno experience the situation and show me what I needed to do for the other dog. After completing my engineering degree, I officially started training as Bruno’s Backyard where I provide dog training for dog owners and dogs. In teaching the dog its boundaries, I look to find the balances between the dog's energy to promote calm, learning experiences. When teaching the dog its boundaries, I provide the tools to the owner to have better communication with the dog to maintain a healthy and productive pack. In the short time Bruno’s Backyard has been operating, we have expanded to provide homemade dehydrated treats with the ability to accommodate diet specific needs upon request. Future hopes for Bruno’s Backyard is to have an indoor dog park with an onsite open kennel rescue area. The indoor park would have an exercise area for people and dogs. I hope to also open a senior dog sanctuary - no senior dog should live their remaining days at a shelter because they are old. Currently, my hours for training are on weekends (Saturday and Sunday), 9:00am to 11:30am (year round) and 3:00pm to 7:00pm (not in summer, though). I can accommodate weekday sessions in emergency situations only. Bruno’s Backyard list of treats include: Chicken Tenders, Turkey Tenders, Sweet Potato Chews, Duck Cookies, and Turkey Cookie.

Happy fifth birthday to our boy Charlie! The addition of Charlie has been the easiest transition we have ever experienced. Charlie continues with Bruno’s Backyard as my assistant helping dogs reach balance in their lives.

Thank you to all of our friends who helped us celebrate our boy Charlie!

Our journey with Max and Griffin continues!

But first Charlie wanted to “talk.” 😂

Max continues to amaze me with how affectionate he is outside of his house. At 12 years old this happy little boy drinks water from a bottle, likes the attention of kids, and is now sniffing other dogs, especially when they’re in his face and he doesn’t have to go far.😏

Griffin has conquered the “rocks” at our playground and still enjoys sliding down the slides! When we approach them it’s now hard to hold him back. At almost two years old he still has a ton of energy that needs to be focused for dispersement at the right time.

Max’s journey began nearly 12 years ago. For most of that time, he spent his days a bit spoiled, but he knew he was missing something.

Last year, I began walking Max’s brother Griffin, but Max’s grandmother was under the impression Max was perfectly content not walking and exploring. One of the key elements to keeping our four-legged friends' energy and mental state calm is to give them daily structured walks. These walks not only satisfy our dogs, but also create a strong bond with their human.

A few months ago, I began walking Max with Griffin and Charlie. At first, Max was hesitant to go, but a few gentle persuasions with the slip lead got Max moving. Since Max is a bit older, we make sure we walk at his pace with plenty of rest breaks. One thing Max LOVES is sitting and watching everything on the breaks.

Over the last couple of months Max has gained a lot of neighborhood friends (two and four legged). He also has met new life forms and encouraged to explore the world through his nose. I look forward to many new adventures with Max! 😁
