The spookiest thing about today: finding a tick this late in the year.

We decided to take our Halloween fun to woods! Today was full of trailing fun with four pooches and then we stopped by DogKrazy Stafford to grab some (dog) treats. Happy Halloween from your favorite Dino dog trainer

Meet Marissa!

Marissa found her way into the dog world after working for a private security company where she was introduced to K9 detection work. Marissa got her first detection dog, Nacho, who she trained and certified in Explosives Detection. That experience sparked her passion for training. Her training with Nacho has laid a strong foundation that now translates into her training style.

Marissa’s background in K9 detection work has shown her how important structure and communication between handlers and dogs are. With consistency, boundaries, and structure she believes both dogs and their human will thrive.

When Marissa isn’t training she enjoys hanging out with her dogs Nacho, Nala, Ivy, and Kevin. When shes not with dogs, Marissa can be found pumping iron and getting swole 💪

Struggling with your dog’s behavior that goes beyond manners? Our behavior modification training program works to build a safer and happier dog. This work isn’t a quick fix, it takes time, structure, and a training plan based on the dog in front of us.

Meet Maddie!

Maddies love for pets started at a young age when she would “train” her family dog. Since then, her love for dogs has only grown. Her interest for truly training and understanding dog behavior really started while fostering dogs. May of the dogs she fostered struggled with anxiety and confidence.

Since starting with Ruff Patriots, she has truly understood the importance of structure and routine in a dogs life. She has seen first hand how this can truly help the mindset of a dog and create a more confident pup.

When Maddie isn’t training, she can either been found napping with her dog, Shadow, or kicking ass on the rugby pitch.

🇺🇸Magnolia🇺🇸

Meet Magnolia! Lia’s parents came to us because she was chewy things in the house and she would pull on the leash. We are one week into her Board and Train and she has already vastly improved! She is crushing it at place, heel, and the rest of her basic obedience. The next week will consist of taking her to more environments and recalling honing in her skills. Best of luck to Lia!

Meet Teresa, the Owner and Head Trainer of Ruff Patriots

What started out as a love for walking and pet sitting dogs, quickly turned into a full-blown passion for all things canine. From understanding behavior and nutrition to developing effective training techniques, Teresa is all about helping dogs.

Teresa believes great training is more than just reliable obedience; it’s about building a confident dog and an empowered human. Her approach combines compassionate, structured training that is tailored to each dog and their owners needs.

When Teresa isn’t training, she enjoys working with her German Shepherd, Basilone. Together they work on tracking and narcotics detection. On their off time, you can find Basilone demanding Teresa for toys to be thrown.

Not everyone gets to say they have some of the coolest, kindest, and most generous clients who have turned into even more amazing friends. 🤍

I feel so blessed for the opportunities, friendships, and genuine connections that dog training and Ruff Patriots have brought into my life!

I got to head out to Colorado, check out their beautiful new digs, and work on some basic obedience with their two 5-month-old Mastiff puppies! 🐾 And, of course, I couldn’t leave without spending some time with my favorite Sheppie boy, Vader, for some obedience refreshers! 🖤

So grateful for the people and dogs this journey has brought into my life. It’s so much more than just dog training! 🤍🐾

What’s more fun than training? Training with friends! Thank you SYDNEY | Pawtriot Dog Training | Family & Adventure Dog Trainer for coming down and supplying caffeine and a good time.

Interested in basic obedience? This training focuses on everyday skills your dog needs to live calmly and successfully at home and in public. We work on core behaviors like sit, down, stay, come, and others! Basic obedience isn’t about making your dog a robot; it’s about creating better habits, improving engagement, and giving your dogs the tools to make good choices.
