Congratulations to our newest graduate - Mousse! He is a nearly 7-month-old Chiweenie who completed his Puppy Advanced Obedience training this past week. His owners reached out to us as they were having typical puppy issues: nipping/biting, jumping, excitement, and wanted to make sure his obedience training got started off on the right track. They also wanted to make sure they were being the best leaders possible for him.

By establishing a good daily routine and also balancing his exercise, leadership, and affection - Mousse has calmed significantly and is well on his way to being that calm, confident, obedient pack member his owners desired. He is working hard to master his commands under greater distractions and different environments. He loves his kennel and walks through the neighborhood. He loves working on his come recall by playing hide and seek with his owners. He has become a more respectful sibling to his older furry family member and is more respectful of boundaries in general. He has had successful outings to Home Depot and Mulhall's and calmly followed beside his owners past many other customers and distractions.

We are proud of you all! Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha alumni family, Mousse! We look forward to staying in touch with your continued successes.

Congratulations to our newest graduate - Tulip! She is a 4-year-old Rough Collie who completed her Behavior Modification training this past week. Her owners reached out to us as she was having increasing excitement issues and reactivity on walks, when guests would come over, and when people would walk by the house on the path in the backyard. She was also having problems with recall under greater distractions.

This pretty girl proved how great of a pack member she can be by taking to the training quickly. With her owners more confidently in the lead, Tulip fell into her natural follower position and her reactivity on walks and at the house diminished greatly. She is still working on passing dogs of higher energy more confidently and calmly but is well on her way to being the calm, confident pack member her owners had envisioned. She impressed at her last lesson by confidently tackling walking on a treadmill to help supplement her exercise regimen on rainy or snowy days. Leadership, consistency, and fulfillment in all the right ways will be keys to her continued success moving forward.

We are proud of you Tulip! Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha alumni family! We look forward to staying in touch and keeping up with your future successes.

HAPPY EASTER from our pack to yours!

Welcome to the Pack...our newest member - Dakota! She is a nearly 5-month-old Mini Goldendoodle who began her Advanced Obedience High Distraction training this past week. Her owner reached out to us as she was having problems with nipping/biting, walking on leash without pulling, and wanted to make sure Dakota's obedience got started off on the right track.

A Mini Goldendoodle is a hybrid dog breed resulting from crossing a Miniature Poodle with a Golden Retriever. They are known for their smaller size, typically weighing between 25-45 pounds and standing 14-17 inches tall. Mini Goldendoodles are popular for their friendly, family-friendly temperament and reduced shedding compared to other breeds, making them a great choice for many households.

Mini Goldendoodles have a variety of coat types, including wavy, curly, and straight, and they generally shed less than other breeds. Mini Goldendoodles are energetic and require daily exercise to stay happy and healthy. The mini Goldendoodle comes in many colors. The color and genes of the parents play a large role in the color of the mini Goldendoodle puppy. Mini Goldendoodle lovers won’t truly know what they may get until the litter arrives. There is a wide variety of colors, shades, and patterns that a mini Goldendoodle can have. While some mini Goldendoodles will have solid colors ranging from blonde/cream to red, black or chocoloate while others will have multiple colors or patterns. Parti colors have more than 50% white with patches of solid colors. Tuxedos are those that have white chests, white paws, and a white blaze on the face. Mini Goldendoodles can also be Merle, Phantom, or even tri colored.

Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha family, Dakota! We look forward to helping your owner become the calm, confident pack leader you will need to thrive in your new home.

Congratulations to our newest graduate - Lila! She is a 2-year-old French Bulldog who completed her Behavior Modification training this past week. Her owners originally reached out to us as they were having increasing "aggressive" tendencies toward the kids and family, increasing excitement issues when guests would come to the house, she would not walk on leash, and increasing aggression at the fence with the neighbor dogs.

We are pleased to report that Lila is now an expert walker and follower on leash. She even follows her human siblings when they walk her. She has calmed tremendously when guests enter the home and calmly and respectfully waits to be invited to say "hello" to them. Her overall excitement level has calmed tremendously, and her humans are better able to control her excitement before it gets out of hand. Her family understands that fulfilling her needs as a dog include balancing her exercise, discipline and affection in all the right ways. She has found her natural position as follower in her human family pack and is now a much more calm, confident, obedient and happy pack member.

Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha alumni family, Lila! We are proud of you all. We look forward to staying in touch and receiving reports about your continued progress.

Congratulations to our newest graduates - Stella & Molly! They are 2 1/2-year-old English Cream Retrievers who completed their Advanced Obedience High Distraction training this past week. Their owners reached out to us as they were having increasing excitement issues, pulled on leash on walks, and were having some general obedience issues after moving from their house into an apartment community.

We are happy to report they are now expert leash walkers and no longer pull their owners on leash. They can now both be walked on leash throughout the building and grounds without being nightmares on leashes. They are calm, more respectful guests in their new home and apartment community. They wait calmly while entering and exiting the elevator and are often practicing their new commands and obedience in the halls, parking garage, common areas and outdoor grounds. They impressed their owners on their final field trip to Scheels sporting goods store on the same morning that the Easter bunny was visiting to the store - lots of people and kids everywhere! Many customers were impressed with how calm and respectful they were despite the chaos.

We are so proud of you all! Your hard work has paid off. Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha alumni family, Stella & Molly! We look forward to staying in touch and keeping up with your progress and continued adventures.

Welcome to the Pack...our newest member - Birdie! She is a 15-month-old Staffordshire Terrier/Pitbull/Boxer mix that was rescued from a Humane Society in North Carolina. She began her Advanced Obedience training this past week. Her owner reached out to us as he was having problems walking her on leash without pulling, problems with getting her to come when called, and increasing excitement issues when people would come to the house.

The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is a medium-sized dog breed. It originated in the northern parts of Birmingham and in the Black Country of Staffordshire, for which it is named. Despite its tough appearance, the Staffie is gentle, loyal, and highly affectionate. The breed is known for its courage, intelligence, and suitability for various roles, including search and rescue and service work.

The American Pit Bull Terrier is a medium-sized, short-haired dog, of a solid build, whose early ancestors came from England. The American Pit Bull Terrier varies in size: males are normally about 18–21 inches in height and around 35–60 pounds in weight, while females are normally around 17–20 inches in height and 30–50 pounds in weight.

Loyalty, affection, intelligence, work ethic, and good looks: Boxers are the whole doggy package! Bright and alert, sometimes silly, but always courageous, the Boxer has been among America's most popular dog breeds for a very long time. A male can stand as high as 25 inches at the shoulder; females run smaller. Their muscles ripple beneath a short, tight-fitting coat. The dark brown eyes and wrinkled forehead give the face an alert, curious look. The coat can be fawn or brindle, with white markings. Boxers are upbeat and playful. Their patience and protective nature have earned them a reputation as a great dog with children.

Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha family, Birdie! We look forward to helping your owner become the pack leader you will need to thrive in all the right ways in your new home.

Welcome to the Pack...our newest member - Roscoe! He is a 7-month-old Brussels Griffon who began his Advanced Obedience training this past week. His owners reached out to us as they wanted to get his increasing excitement under control, he was having issues with potty training and wanted to make sure his obedience training got started off on the right track.

The Brussels griffon is a Belgian dog in the toy group with a short face, round head, distinct facial fur, large eyes, and a silky coat. These compact and sturdy dogs date back to the 1800s. This breed's human-like expressions are reflective of its personality, which is known for including mischievous and playful antics. The breed is also known as the griffon bruxellois, and it may simply be called "griff." Lively and alert, the Brussels griffon has a reputation for being a natural entertainer and is a joyful and loyal companion to their owners.

Brussels griffons should receive routine exercise, but this breed does not require substantial activity to stay healthy. About 30-45 minutes per day of walking along with a few play sessions should suffice. Be aware that griffs are amazing climbers and jumpers, so it's important to protect your dog from taking a fall that could cause injury. The flat faces of these dogs don't allow them to cool the air when breathing, which makes them more susceptible to overheating and heat exhaustion. Only exercise your Brussels griffon during the coolest part of the day on hot days, and never leave your dog unattended in a vehicle (even on cooler days). This breed also does not tolerate cold weather well and may need a sweater during chilly seasons.

Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha family, Roscoe! We look forward to helping your owners become the calm, confident pack leaders you will need to really thrive in your new home.

Welcome to the Pack...our newest members - Stevie & Moe! Stevie is a 2-year-old female Pug/Boxer mix and Moe is a 4-year-old male French Bulldog who began their Advanced Obedience training this past week. Their owners reached out to us as they were having occasional fights, increasing excitement issues, reactivity on walks, and problems with getting the dogs to come when called.

The Boxer Pug mix, also called the Box-a-Pug or Poxer, is a cross between a Boxer dog and a Pug. The Boxer Pug mix is one of the happiest dog breeds you’ll ever meet. This furball of sunshine is affectionate, playful, and always ready to bring smiles to its owner’s face with its mischievous and silly antics. Predicting the exact size of a Boxer Pug mix can be difficult. Depending on its uniquely inherited set of genes, an adult Poxer can be a small to large-sized dog. Boxer Pug mixes can stand anywhere between 10 and 25 inches and weigh from 14 to 80 pounds. In terms of exercise, the amount of daily physical activity a Poxer needs can vary from 30 minutes to two hours, depending on its size and energy level.

The French bulldog is a small, muscular dog with their trademark bat-like ears. Along with their adorable looks, Frenchies are lively, lovable, and playful companions. It's no wonder why they're the most popular dog breed in the United States. French bulldogs are very affectionate, family-oriented dogs who do best when spending plenty of time with their family. Your Frenchie will enjoy playing in the house or yard. Besides that, a short walk, fetch, or tug-of-war is all they'll need each day. Frenchies are smart and willing to learn and teaching them consistently is a great way to strengthen your bond.

Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha family, Stevie and Moe! We look forward to helping your owners become the calm, confident pack members you will need to get along and become the calm, obedient pack members they desire.

Congratulations to Remi - a 3-year-old Pitbull mix - who completed her Advanced Obedience training this past week. Her owner originally reached out to us as she was having problems walking her on leash without pulling, had increasing excitement/barking issues, and she wanted to learn how to be a better overall leader for her furry friend.

Remi has made huge strides during our time together and walks better on leash without pulling so hard that her owner's shoulder and hands would be sore. She has calmed tremendously but is still working hard to be calm around distractions at her apartment building. She experienced a move to a new building during our time together and adjusted well to her new building and apartment. She is strengthening her obedience commands every day and is working to increase her durations and comfort when her owner is farther distances away.

With continued training, consistency and a balance of exercise, structure, and affection, she will no doubt become the calmer, more obedient pack member her owner desires. Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha alumni family, Remi! We look forward to staying in touch and keeping up with your progress.

Welcome to the Pack...our newest member - Vinny! He is a 2-year-old Boxer who began his Advanced Obedience training this past week. His owners reached out to us as they were having increasing excitement issues when guests would come to the house, pulling on leash on walks and wanted to improve his overall obedience.

An adult Boxer acts like a big kid who’ll never grow up. They are puppies at heart, which is one reason they are so well-loved, ranking 16th on the American Kennel Club (AKC) list of the most popular breeds. This breed has a storied past that included various jobs, from big-game hunter to service dog to guardian. The Boxer gets its name from the animal’s unique way of playing with each other, where they stand on their hind legs and “box” each other with their front paws.

Boxers have short hair, with strong, muscular bodies and square jaws. Boxer dogs are also brachycephalic, which means that they have wide, short skulls, with square muzzles. They also have an underbite, which, in combination with their long jowls, can lead to some very amusing head-out-of-the-car-window situations.

Boxers can have a few different colorings, including the fawn Boxer and brindle (both sometimes with white markings). Some are entirely white. White Boxers aren’t albino, and they’re fairly common. Apart from white Boxers, many have what’s called a black mask, which is a patch of coloring, varying in intensity, around the eyes and mouth.

The ideal pet parent for a boxer has time to interact, exercise, and entertain their dog. A bored boxer will chew, lick, and dig to excess, so a kennel or crate may be necessary when you need to be away for longer periods of time. You’ll also need to get out on a daily walk and work in play opportunities that your dog will enjoy.

Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha family, Vinny! We look forward to helping your owners become the calm, confident pack leaders you will need to be the calm, obedient pack member they desire.

Welcome to the Pack...our newest member - Saylor! He is a 7-month-old Poochon who began his Advanced Obedience training this past week. His owners reached out to us as they were having issues walking him on leash without pulling or getting excited, increasing excitement issues in the home and when guests would come over, and general obedience & nipping issues.

The Poochon is a small-sized, spunky cross between the Toy Poodle and Bichon Frise dog breeds. Poochons go by several names, including the Bichpoo, Bichon Poo, and Bichon Poodle. The Poochon temperament is loving, affectionate, loyal, and devoted. These adorable pups would be a great addition to a big family or single-person household. They would also do well in an apartment, provided they receive ample mental stimulation. You’ll also want to start training early to curb excessive barking. If you want a playful, cuddly, and low-shed pup who will love you unconditionally, the Poochon may be the right dog for you!

The Bichon Poodle mix is popular with families and allergy sufferers, thanks to their hypoallergenic, low-shedding coats. Poochon coats are typically curly, wavy, or fluffy, with a soft and dense texture. Their coats come in various colors, with common shades including pure white or creamy hues from the Bichon Frise parent, apricot (ranging from pale to dark tones), and soft cream, which can vary in lightness. Although less common, some Poochons can be black, while others may display rarer colors such as gray, chocolate, or silver, depending on the genetics of the Poodle parent.

Welcome to the Always Faithful Dog Training of Omaha family, Saylor! We look forward to helping your new pet parents become the pack leaders you will need to really thrive in your new home.
