Dear Animal Lover,

We believe there is hope out there in the world for dogs and humans to communicate smarter, learn more and teach better through positive reinforcement and force free training techniques. Our goal is to strengthen the human animal bond by focusing on the relationship. We are using the scientific learning theory and reward based training techniques, which are safe, fun, effective

and motivating for all animals. Our mission is happy dogs as well as happy people through training, communication, kindness and education.

Here we are working on true relaxation from within and supporting the dog’s calm decisions and calm handler techniques to help lower the arousal in situations where it’s needed. Hint: less obedience needed, more understanding of dogs’s natural behavior and helping them regulate.

Young dog learning boundaries, how to navigate himself around dogs, reading body-language and realizing that jumping on top of another dog un-invited is rude and comes with consequences.

Down Town walk success! While it’s a dream and goal of many to be able to walk their dogs down a busy down town to eat and shop -in reality many dogs struggle and find this environment stressful, unpredictable and scary. While it’s good to have goals and focus on what we want, what is needed often looks different, we needed to meet the dog’s needs first. Today, after months of working on connection, safety, calming a very anxious and fearful nervous system through small, positive achievements indoors, backyard, neighborhood we actually made it down town. Slow and steady wins the race. Woot woot!

New friend, can’t wait to learn from you. If and when a dog “fails” it’s common to think training is what’s lacking. Most dogs need less training, more understanding, patience, safety, management, bonding and trust and the rest usually follows…

We reached some new goals today. Go Elfina!
Keep learning, keep it fun and try new things. So proud of the positive changes she has made over these past two years, confidence and personality continues to evolve. Everyone’s journey and timeline is unique. So thankful for the friendship and adventures little Elf brings.
The video is her reward after class: ripping up paper bags and finding crumbs is one of her favs 🐾

“How do you find peace? You do not find peace as a hidden place; you choose it by what you ignore, what you release, and what you stop feeding with your energy. That’s the shift…”
