It’s been a while since we posted, but Jon has been busy getting our new Dawg Day Adventurers comfortable! Angel and Gnash are just two of our newest clients. 🐾

Even though it was Angel’s first time away from her mom, she absolutely loved her day out. On the other hand, Gnash is taking things slow. As you can see, he enjoys his time out. However, full trust is not yet gained. Patience is key when it comes to trust-building.

Our Dawg Day Adventures are not your typical day out. We work leash skills, proper socialization, and learn how to deal with unfamiliar situations and environments. If you are interested in enrolling your dog in our adventures program, reach out to Jon today!

Say hello to Millie! 👋🏻 🐾

Millie was rescued from our local Walmart parking lot. At only 6 weeks old, she is not quite ready for cue work. However, there are still lessons to learn at this age.

Jon and her owners discussed proper socialization methods, such as taking trips to the vet to desensitize the scary experience. She already shows signs of confidence and has even tackled going up and down stairs.

While we still have some time before we start cue work, her owners are on the right path to having a well-trained pup.

Recently, Gene W. Brown Elementary School invited Mad Dawgs to be part of the One Book Blitz. 📕 🐾

All of the Title I schools in Sumner County are reading Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo. Since the novel is about a dog, various pet businesses in the local community were invited to participate in Gene Brown’s family night. Jon had a chance to share his knowledge of dog training with children and their families.

Thank you to Gene Brown for inviting us! We love being involved in events like these.

We wanted to give a shout out to one of our Most Improved Dawg Day Adventurers, Toby. 🐾

Toby was one of our first Dawg Day Adventure pups and has come such a long way. He was very reactive to dogs and people, which caused Jon to veer from the trail when people were going to pass by. Today, Toby no longer requires major detours from the walking path. While not perfect, his tolerance for other dogs and people has improved significantly.

Often times, redirection is the strategy of choice. However, Toby struggled to take his attention off of his stressors; treats, toys, and noise makers were all unsuccessful. Instead, Jon focused on walking cues and worked with Toby’s natural herding instincts.

We are so proud of Toby!

Today was a long day. I just hope the pups are as tired as I am!

Today, Mad Dawgs Training and some volunteers brought a couple of dogs from The Humane Society of Sumner County to Burn Boot Camp’s Running with Rover event. Jon and Presto decided to get their steps in. 🐾

Presto is up for adoption at Sumner Humane in Hendersonville, TN. 💙

Say hello to Harry! 👋🏻 🐾

Harry is learning to trust new people, explore this big world, and understand he has found his “furever” home.

Together, his owner and Jon are learning his boundaries. His owner—who already owns another rescue dog—admitted Harry’s anxiety is new for her and definitely overwhelming. Thankfully, she reached out to Mad Dawgs to assist her with this.

Sometimes sit, down and stay aren’t the first steps. While we do work with dogs in need of basic training, our clients tend to consist of highly reactive dogs who need more specific interventions to work through their struggles. We know each dog is different and our training programs are customized accordingly. As always, our method is positive reinforcement and enrichment.

We look forward to sharing Harry’s successes in the weeks to come!

Congratulations to Maddie! 🐾

When Mad Dawgs began working with Maddie, she had a history of success at the dog park and with her friends on The Magic Dog Bus. However, on leash, she was very reactive. Barking and lunging made a really embarrassing scene for her owner.

Jon worked with Maddie’s owner on proper leash handling skills and redirection cues to help her in these situations.

While Maddie might one day be part of our Dawg Day Adventures program, this beautiful girl has completed her training sessions with Jon. Now, it’s up to her owner to continue the long journey. 🤍

Say hello to Scout! 👋🏻 🐾

This handsome, innocent-looking boy has some unruly behaviors. His interactions with other dogs may be in need of some work, but Scout is very smart. Sometimes, that intelligence can be the problem. However, Jon is prepared with enriching brain games to keep Scout’s active mind working.

Scout already knows some cues and Jon will help to clean up his responses to those while also teaching him some new tricks.

We look forward to sharing Scout’s progress! 💙

We also know we haven’t been as active on our posts. It’s been a busy season, for which we have been grateful! Thank you to all of our clients—past and present. Your referrals are very much appreciated.

SHELTER SPOTLIGHT: Max 🐾

This boy is going to make a great family member with an owner who has some patience on walks and cue work.

Jon took Max out for a walk around the park today for his first adventure. On these trips, Jon tries to learn what the dog already knows.

It was Max’s first time out, which made his attention span quite limited. It also made it difficult to assess his abilities. However, he got a long walk, did lots of good sniffing, and even did well with exposure to the local wildlife. 🦌

Max is a 1.5 year old husky poodle mix who is up for adoption at The Humane Society of Sumner County in Hendersonville, TN.

Say hello AND congratulations to Dottie! 🎓🐾

Dottie is certainly one of our quickest graduates, but she is also the youngest! Even though her attention span could be short, when Dottie was ready to learn, she soaked it in.

Training isn’t just about learning cues, and socialization isn’t just dragging your dog to the dog park. Dottie’s owner wanted her to be socialized properly and Jon helped guide her through the process. This desire to do things the right way certainly contributed to Dottie’s speedy development.

Way to go, Dottie! We are so proud of you. 💙

Congratulations to Gimli on his graduation! 🎓 🐾

Gimli did great during our training sessions despite his limited attention span. He had a bad experience at the dog park and we wanted to make sure this wasn’t imprinted. As a result, our last session was Rover's Ridge the Dog Park at White House where he got to have a positive interaction with another dog.

As big as Gimli is, obstacles can still be intimidating and his size can make you forget that he is still just a puppy. With lots of encouragement, trust, and patience, his owner was able to get him to overcome his hesitations.

Way to go, Gimli! We’re so proud of you! 💙
