It’s a big eclipse/full moon week. 🌘

Anyone notice anything behaviorally different in your dogs the past few days?

You might see more:

Anxiety
Restlessness
Aggression
Poor sleep
Sleepiness
Whining

We always find that it affects some dogs more than others, just as in humans.

Maybe we find ourselves more: anxious, irritable, angry, restless, tired, unmotivated, resentful, finding an urge to clean or clean out things, extra emotional, etc.

Best to take it easy and keep the energy calm and relaxed over this week and weekend. ✨ It’ll improve.

New & Current Clients 📣

I just put September on the board and it’s nearly full. I do work 2 jobs and events on the weekends. Weekend session availability is slim and private slots are limited!

If you need a private session package or to get in on the drop off or playgroup list, please let us know soon! I am a pen and paper person so if it’s in the book, it’s a priority!

Fall will be busy as it typically is. 🤎

Our life would be absolutely nothing without them.

Environmental confidence comes from consistently switching up the routine and continuing the exposure.

Proofing the obedience work you’ve put in out in various environments.

Don’t just stop once the skills are there, keep them working! Great job playgroup dogs.
