SHARE with someone in need! Located in MESA, ARIZONA 🌵!

Let’s face it. Times are tough, and with the holidays approaching, budgets are getting stretched even thinner.

I know there are families out there who desperately want help with their dogs but have been putting off training because of the financial commitment.

So, in the spirit of giving this holiday season, I’ve decided to open up FOUR discounted Board & Train spots!

I’m offering special holiday pricing on both my 2 week and 4 week Board & Train programs.

Whether you’re struggling with basic obedience, leash manners, mild reactivity, or just want a more enjoyable relationship with your dog, this could be the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.

I don’t offer discounts like this often, but I’d love to help a few more families get the training they’ve been needing without quite as much financial strain.

PAYMENT PLANS AVAILABLE!

One of the most important decisions I’ve made as a dog trainer had nothing to do with training.

This is the side of dog training nobody talks about.

Disco came to me for a six week behavior modification program. Two weeks later, he was headed back to the rescue.

Not because he couldn’t be trained. He actually made tremendous progress.

But because I recognized something that no amount of obedience training was going to fix.

He wasn’t the right dog for the family hoping to adopt him.

They had good intentions. They wanted to give a rescue dog a second chance. But good intentions don’t automatically make someone the right owner for a dog with significant behavioral challenges.

Disco needs an experienced handler who understands that training is only part of the equation. The rest is a lifelong commitment to structure, management, and accountability.

After some honest conversations, the family made the responsible decision not to move forward with the adoption.

I refunded the remaining four weeks of training and sent Disco back to the rescue with more skills than he arrived with.

Did it cost me money? Absolutely.

Would I make the same decision again? Without hesitation.

My job isn’t to convince people that I can fix every dog. My job is to give them an honest assessment of what they’re signing up for.

Sometimes doing right by the dog means admitting that the home everyone hoped would work simply isn’t the right one.

And I’d much rather have that conversation now than after someone gets hurt or a dog ends up back in rescue following a preventable incident.

That’s what ethical dog training looks like to me.

Huge breakthrough for Disco with the crate today! Day 2 of his six week behavior modification training.

This dog was difficult to get into the crate and even when he went in, he would turn around and lunge and bark.

It’s been a long couple of days but this stuff is SO important if he has any hope of functioning safely in a pet home.

Please do not try these methods with biting dogs without professional guidance.

Stay tuned for more progress on this case!

⚠️ Trigger Warning ⚠️

I know it’s not pretty. It might even be hard to watch. Just know that getting him muzzled and trained will save his life.

He currently lives with a foster to adopt home and they are not able to give him the quality of life he could have because of his aggression. They want to keep him but he’s becoming more and more unsafe. If this doesn’t get under control he will have little to no quality of life.

There is no family out there that can reasonably adopt this dog without intense training and continued management.

He absolutely will bite if you try to handle him when he doesn’t want to be handled he bit me multiple times through my glove.

This video shows the first HUGE step in his rehab process. Now the real training starts. Now I am safer handling him. Now my family is safer.

What he is displaying has worked for him for YEARS. He will naturally escalate when it’s not working with me because he believes eventually it will work. That’s what he has learned before coming to me; that his outbursts work.

This is called an extinction burst.

The big focus of his training will be a calm and stable state of mind. Stay tuned for his progress!!

🎃 October 2026 Challenge 🎃

TUNNEL OF TEMPTATION

This is to help proof against food stealing and scavenging. Think about all the family/friends events coming up soon. No more stealing the turkey when no one is watching. No more getting into the Halloween candy.

Get creative with this! You can do all sorts of distractions and obediance with this exercise. I can’t wait to see what you all come you all come up with. If you are new, start easy or with just one distraction! You do NOT have to do all 5, these are just ideas!

Enjoy 😉

*disclaimer: make sure you don’t use anything that would make your dog sick if they snag a bite

IF YOU TRY IT, SEND ME YOUR VIDEO AND ILL SHARE IT!

Nailed it!

When you live with multiple dogs, this is a really nice skill to teach them. Sometimes you want to release just one dog or call just one dog over.

Practice this in small steps first.

Use tie backs for the dogs you aren’t going to call when you first start practicing.

I have an online community where I will teach you everything you want to know about dog training! DM me for information on how to join!

Is it hard sometimes? YES! But I wouldn’t change it!

I absolutely love what I do and the lives I have changed. Running a business is incredibly difficult at times, but you know what? Completely worth it.

Shoutout to all my fellow dog trainers out there in the trenches, day after day! I see you!
