We a great day for some loose leash walking fun!!

These teams learned how to help their dogs maintain attention to their guardian when needed, support their dogs in stimulating situations, and how to move mindfully. All of this creates a framework for more enjoyable walks for both...

Loose leash walking is a skill that starts well before you put the leash on. These teams did amazing!!

Be sure to check out our website for future class offerings.

July 4 is right around the corner, along with all sorts of safety (and sanity) considerations for your pets. This American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) article has a great list of things to do (or not do) to keep your pets safe and happy.

If your cat or dog struggles with fireworks, please reach out to your veterinarian now to discuss whether medication is a good choice to help. If you are our client, you can also reach out to our clinic behaviorist for a treatment plan.

Fireworks, picnics and other 4th of July traditions can be great fun for people, but frightening and dangerous for animals. Know how to keep your animals safe.

Congrats to our most recent Puppy Preschool graduates! These cuties learned how to play well with others, how to be brave, how to have patience when things are exciting and tempting, and how to settle.

They also did a great job with leash walking, come, sit, "drop it," "leave it," and other important skills.

Their families learned how to build trust, set boundaries and manage busy puppies, and engage active puppy brains. We all had a lot of fun!

Please say hello to Bear, Lainey, Leo, Mocha, Olive, and Poppy!

Congratulations to the graduates of our latest Team Building Basics class.

Julie, Heath and Alice
Shelby and Gretel

This class uses patterns of behavior to learn life skills like ability to choose to sit, stay still, or lay down in active environments, turn away from exciting or concerning stimuli, choosing to give attention to their guardian, and calmly walking with us while still getting to sniff and explore their world.

The next session for Team Building Basics will be in September. We keep this class small, only 3 teams so sign up soon before it's full!!

Be sure to check our website and pages for all our quality class offerings...
