Hung out with this sweet girl all week. We went on some nice walks, played ball and practiced calm behaviors before going on walks. Sweet Nelly!

It's been two weeks since our beautiful girl, Halyn, passed away. She was an amazingly smart, sweet, and motivated dog. She loved to fetch, play tug, LOVED the beach, enjoyed helping with lessons, loved massages, and was a wonderful big sister to our daughter. Halyn was not an easy dog when she was given to us at 6 months, but Jon (my husband) did an incredible job earning her trust and working with her. From that trust, a strong and beautiful relationship was born. Her intelligence and demeanor was noticed everywhere we went, here in NC and back on the island of Guam. Everyone loved her! With her skills and motherly love, she helped train and rehabilitate many dogs during our 9 years on the island. We were always so proud to say we were a pack! We miss her dearly, but we know she is running free! She was 13 years old. We love you, Halyn! 🤍🐾🌈

We've been going for walks early in the morning since it's getting hotter every day. The dogs definitely appreciate the nicer weather. They're getting older, so we've been going on shorter walks. Took advantage of today's overcast weather and had a mid-day walk. 🐾💙🐾

Meet Ruby! I've been working with her and her owners for the last two months. We're working on puppy behaviors, learning manners, proper environment exposure and covering proper leash communication. Ruby and I had a great time last week during her Day Train. She's rocking it! 🤙🏼💛🐾 Proud of Ruby and her owners!

Meet Mac, 4 year old lab mix. We had our third lesson last week and training is coming along well.

Here's what we're working on:

- walking nicely on a leash 🙌
- owners are learning how to implement temporary management protocols to control aroused behaviors in the house
- learning door manners
- place command was introduced to teach boundaries

We're looking forward to seeing him again! 🐾🙌🐾

Meet Oreo! I've been working with him and his owner to help with some reactivity towards a family member if they attempt to enter their bedroom, leash reactivity on walks, confidence building, and general obedience.

We had our third lesson earlier this week and I'm happy to see so much improvement. His owner guides him with so much more confidence and intention. Oreo has improved with his behaviors at home (especially with the family member) and is learning how to walk nicely for his owner.

There are still some areas to work on, but I'm proud of the improvement in both Oreo and his owner.

I love how his owner acknowledges the importance of working on herself first in order to be a better dog owner. Something that even professional dog owners practice.

Nice job, Oreo and Mom! 💙🐾

If your dog is struggling staying calm during walks, make sure you're setting up opportunities (outside of walks) for them to practice calm behaviors.

Here are some areas to practice calm behavior. Try them out and let me know what you think. 🤙🏼🐾💚
