We often remind our clients and ourselves that although training is great and necessary, so is just having fun with your dog. Tapping into Echo’s instincts here and introduced him to some mushing… ish

Look who’s back from the IR list! The gentle giant himself, Walt! He’s still on light duty for now, but he’s back and already falling back in the groove. Even took a quick field trip to Pet Supplies Plus on his first day back!

Miss Mavis May is back for Day 2 of our “Day Shift” program! She and her awesome owners have been crushing their homework between sessions. Today we’re reviewing previous lessons, adding the verbal cue to her “go place” command, and wrapping up with a food puzzle to build confidence and provide mental stimulation.

🐾Unsolicited Advice from FKA🐾

Before bringing home a new dog or puppy, research different breeds and their common traits. Talk with a local trainer or reputable breeder about which breed may best fit your lifestyle. Consider factors like size, temperament, energy level, whether the breed was bred for work, and the amount of maintenance or grooming required. The biggest question should always be: Will this dog thrive in my home, and do I have the time, resources, and ability to properly care for and manage it?

For example, if you live in a small one-bedroom apartment, an Australian Shepherd or Great Dane may not be the best fit. If you can’t maintain high activity levels, breeds like GSDs, Malinois, and other high-drive working dogs may not suit your lifestyle either.

Lastly, appearance and the “cute factor” should be near the bottom of the checklist when choosing a dog. A puppy being adorable doesn’t automatically mean it’s the right fit for your home.

These aren’t hard rules, just general advice we hope helps anyone considering adding a new dog to their family.
