Science-based training with an integrative wellness approach. Come learn about an integrative approach to behavior & wellness in your pet!

We address root-cause behavior, build clear communication, and deliver practical tools that create calm, confident dogs. We can not avoid genetics (the raw material your dog was born with), environment (how prior experiences or current living manifests itself) and lifestyle (what, when and how much we do) as key factors in our health and wellness as well as our companion animals. Together we do a root cause analysis to create a healthy well mannered dog.

🎃 Halloween + 🐾 = STRESS.

QUESTION? Do you have a comfortable, quiet space away from the doorbell for your pup?

Don't forget

🍫 Keep candy and anything containing xylitol, out of reach.

👻 Stranger danger! Costumes, masks, and unexpected visitors can turn pups into a nervous wreck.

🐕 Beware of escape artists. One open door, one spooky surprise, and suddenly you're the one running through the neighborhood!

Happy Howloween from BNADOG.COM! 💀🐾 Before N After Dog Training

Dogs lives touch us deeply. Two very special dogs, whose lives I was fortunate to be part of, crossed the rainbow bridge just days apart.

Aubrey’s beloved Bells, passed on Saturday, and Nala left us today.

I had the privilege of being part of both dogs’ puppy development journeys. I still remember going along to pick up Nala and what a handful she was.

It is bittersweet to remember all the hikes, walks, play dates, day trainings in Bells beginnings to get her to a Canine Good Citizen. So blessed for the number of wonderful years spent with their families.

My heartfelt condolences to both families. Rest peacefully, Bells and Nala. You were both very special dogs.

Reactivity can look like barking, nipping and bossing everyone around. In this case, this pup is extremely over whelmed with its new surroundings. Teaching calm confidence takes consistency & lots of patience. She's lucky to have a home willing to give her the love and life she deserves!

Have a flight delay & passed this really nice pup potty spot. Wanted to remind clients that Airport travel can be a lot for a dog, especially if they have never used artificial turf before. A dog accustomed to grass may not immediately understand that an indoor pet relief station is an appropriate place to go.
I am always avaliable for airport training where we introduce the airport before travel day. We ealk through the environment, let your dog hear the sounds, see the movement, explore different surfaces and investigate the pet relief area without the pressure of a boarding time.
If you are traveling with your pup for the first time, do keep the leash relaxed, allow plenty of sniffing, avoid repeated potty commands and reward success calmly. Practicing on artificial turf before the trip can also make the airport experience much easier.
Preparation creates familiarity. Familiarity reduces pressure.
Its important to teach the environment before expecting great behavior!

Puppies need to chew. It is part of how they explore, soothe themselves, work through teething, and learn what belongs in their mouth.
Providing appropriate chews gives your puppy a productive outlet before shoes, furniture, rugs, or hands become the alternative.
The goal is not simply stopping unwanted chewing. It is teaching your puppy what TO choose.
Good choices now help create better habits as your puppy grows.

3 pups, 3 stages & 3 very different personalities can make training a challenge! Working seperately together, teaching calm behavior by teaching new skills can be tough but so rewarding when the goal is accomplished.

A quick moment of focus. Share a photo of your pet in the comments!

There is a difference between obedience and behavior modification especially when it comes to shadow chasing. It isn't a quick fix with a distraction or treat scenario rather a disengage, orient and do some thing else development with management. We are 3 weeks in and progress is happening!!!
