I posted this on my personal page … and got enough feedback that it warranted a post here on the business page too. 😆 Often folks assume because I am a trainer my dogs are “perfect” … all the time. Nothing could be farther from the truth. I have my own personal struggles with my own dogs- the only difference is I’m aware of it all happening all at once. So… I hope you enjoy some of my personal “dog trainer reality” 🤪
(For those that don’t know- Byron is from a breeding I did between Edit x Torro. So Edit - the smaller Malinois that he is “fighting” - is his mother. )

Oh… what a nice morning to a sip coffee ☕️ to start the day in nature by our lovey creek with my peaceful and calm dogs lounging around this slow morning with me.
Who wouldn’t want to start their day like this?! 🤪

“Trainer Tyler… your dogs must be so well behaved all the time”

Me: “oh yeah. Peace/love/sunshine and order are what my pack radiates… they are perfect* examples of my work and I sure do enjoy the calming energy the dogs bring into my life.”

P.S…. Edit’s life karma arrived the day Byron was born and the day I decided he would stay. 🤓😎 She gets to taste her own medicine she dishes out.

P.s.s…. Byron clearly is upset about my angry “geeeeiiiitttt” voice. 🤠

First week of school back and it was a busy week here at The Doggy Dorm also!
Here are catch up videos all from the last week that I took and forgot to post.

This past week the Schnauzers and Poppy went home from their month of training, Sadie girl is in her final week as we gear up for mid August and Sept scheduled training dogs. 🐶 Several alumni dogs here this week has us all feeling like it’s “Alumni Week” 😆

Happy Sunday everyone! 🌅 That full moon sure was bright this morning!

The family of Schnauzers: Ragnar/Freya/Bjorn/Odin went back home to their family after just over 5 weeks here for “group therapy”. We worked over the weeks to get these fiesty terriers to respect door manners, manage their characteristic Schnauzer barking, walking on a leash with manners, socialization with other dogs and more!

These photos were from the day before they all went home after a family session and I’m waiting to upload their videos to Yourtube to send to their humans. We built a great relationship over the weeks … those that train together- rest together.

We had a blast working with all their character! 😊💜🙏 Thank you to the Born family for trusting us and the Simpson family for referring them- that is the highest compliment we could receive.

Training Spotlight 💥
Student: “Poppy”
Breed: German Wiredhair Pointer
Age: 5ish-6 months

Here is her dinner training session: uncut, unedited.

She “worked” for half her kibble, then she got to eat the remaining half in her crate.
Here you see us working on sending her to Place/downing for reward and JUST introducing her holding the down at the very end.
Also working her “come” into a formal heel position- it’s a lot of steps.
She is learning to give to the leash tension by stepping sideways into my heel position in a counter clockwise pivot along with tight right circles. (This teaches her how to work WITH the tension in the leash- and how SHE has control of when the tension is released which makes way for a reward. The exercise teaches here how to use her body- side stepping- and gives her a puzzle to solve the feel super proud when she figures it out! Insert praise parties there. This type of handling teaches the pups there is FUN in learning, THEY are ultimately in control of their rewards or when tension is release. It fosters trust and a relationship with the handler.)
Here is the total 10 minutes of what one of our maaaannnnnny sessions look like from very start to finish.

Poppy is the third dog of this family to come through our Puppy Foundation Training Camp… and she’s an actively enthusiastic student 🤩🤩 Great attitude + determined work ethic + will to please + foodsANDtouch motivated = perfect training combination . 👏👏😊😊
