In-home dog training for you, your family, and your dog for life, guaranteed! Serving Utah County and beyond Because, guess what! Not with us!

You’re probably here because either you or someone you know needs help with their noisy, fearful, obnoxious, messy, unruly, anxious, destructive, or even aggressive dog. Imagine if you could “fix” all of these problems in as little as 3 lessons, but had the peace of mind knowing you have training assistance for the rest of your dog’s life? We approach training your dog by not actually training your dog, but by teaching YOU how to train your dog. Your dog lives with you, in your home. WE'RE NOT THE DOG WHISPERERS...YOU ARE!

🎃🐾 Halloween With Pets Doesn’t Have to Be Scary!

Halloween is an exciting time for families. There are costumes, decorations, candy, and lots of neighborhood kids running from house to house. But while we see the fun, our dogs may see a very different picture!

Imagine being a dog who is used to a quiet evening at home. Suddenly, the doorbell keeps ringing, strangers appear wearing strange masks and costumes, people are making unusual noises, and tempting treats are falling onto the ground. It’s a lot to process!

The good news is that Halloween doesn’t have to be scary for your pet. With a little preparation, consistent training, and a plan for keeping your dog safe, you can help make the evening much less stressful.

Here are 3 things to work on before Halloween night:

🔔 1. Calm at the Door
Lots of kids will be ringing the doorbell, knocking, and coming to the door in costumes. Practice helping your dog stay calm instead of barking, jumping, rushing the door, or trying to escape. Teach your dog where to go and what to do when someone knocks.

👻 2. Get Comfortable With the Spooky Stuff
Masks, capes, hats, face paint, and unusual decorations can look frightening or confusing to dogs. Gradually introduce your dog to different sights and sounds in a positive, controlled way. Don’t wait until Halloween night to discover what scares them!

🍬 3. Nothing on the Ground Without Permission
Candy wrappers, dropped treats, chocolate, and other Halloween goodies can be dangerous for pets. Practice teaching your dog not to grab things off the ground without permission. A solid “leave it” and reliable impulse control can help protect your pup all year long!

🐶 Remember: Training takes practice and consistency. Don’t expect your dog to handle a busy Halloween night perfectly if they haven’t practiced these skills beforehand.

Sometimes the safest and kindest choice is to give your dog a quiet space away from the excitement, especially if they get anxious or overwhelmed.

A little preparation goes a long way toward making Halloween safer and less stressful for everyone!

🐶 Want some extra practice? Join us at our next class, where we’ll work on these skills together and help your dog build better manners, confidence, and impulse control!

📢 Bakers Acres' Group Class is this Friday, 10/24 starting promptly at 6:00pm.
📍Park in the East Parking Lot at the Nebo Summit Center (165 S 700 E, Springville).
💲 Total is $30/class.

🐾 Patience is one of the most important parts of teaching your dog something new.

When we teach a new skill, our dog doesn’t automatically know what we want. They have to learn through trial and error—and sometimes they get really confused! 😂

They may start offering every behavior they know will make us happy, even if it’s not what we’re asking for.

The key is to stay calm and patient. The moment we become frustrated or tense, our dogs can sense it, and their stress can increase too.

Keep lessons short, fun, and successful, and always try to end on a good note. ❤️

Remember: your dog is learning with you. Give them the same patience you’d want while learning something completely new.

If your heart starts racing before a vet appointment, you're probably not the only one.

We've had owners tell us they start worrying the night before. They're wondering if they'll have to lift a 70-pound dog into the car, if their dog will refuse to walk through the clinic doors, or if they'll spend the entire appointment trying to keep their dog from pulling, barking, or backing out of their collar.

Then they get to the clinic.

The waiting room is full of unfamiliar dogs, people are coming and going, the floor is slippery, and someone you've never met asks to touch your dog's ears, lift a paw, or look inside their mouth. For a dog that hasn't been prepared for those moments, that's a lot to process in a very short amount of time.

We've worked with dogs that froze in the doorway and wouldn't take another step. Others were perfectly happy until the veterinarian reached for a paw or brought out the stethoscope. Some did well during the exam but completely fell apart when it came time for a blood draw or nail trim.

The good news is that these aren't personality flaws, and they don't mean your dog is "bad." Most of the time, they're simply telling us they don't understand what's happening or don't yet feel safe with the process.

That's why we spend time teaching dogs to be comfortable with handling before they ever need it. Touching paws. Looking at teeth. Holding still for a few seconds. Walking onto a scale. Taking food from new people. Learning that being examined doesn't always lead to something uncomfortable.

Those small skills add up. They make routine appointments easier, and they become invaluable when your dog is sick, injured, or needs treatment and doesn't have the option to opt out.

We're curious...

What's the hardest part of a vet visit for your dog?

Was there one moment that made you realize, "We need to work on this"?

Chances are someone else has gone through the exact same thing, and your story might help them take the first step toward changing it.
