Success Stories
Meet client dog Luna! ❤ We went over how to reduce jumping - she is one of the first Greyhounds I've met that jumps out of excitement, it actually made me so happy to see how well adjusted she is. 😀 We also went over loose leash walking, "leave it" (especially for squirrels and chicken bones), coming when called, and lie down which is still a work in progress.
Luna loves lying in the bathroom which is like a familiar crate, and when she was done with our lessons she would retreat to her resting spot and that was that. 😀
I had another recent client in the same neighborhood with a rescue Greyhound and introduced them for "play" dates, rather walking together with their humans. Since Greyhounds are not typically socialized and only spend time with their own breed, they can be a little overwhelmed by other dogs. These two seem to hit it off. I'm always so happy to play doggie matchmaker! ❤

Meet client dog Milo! ❤ We went over how to reduce jumping, improve leash walking, how to drop it and leave it (he did really well except is pretty enamored with the broom - we'll call that a "work-in-progress" 😄), and how to reduce over-excitement. We were limited in our outdoor time due to the heat this summer so I hope we can continue making progress when it cools off in the fall. I really enjoy working with this silly character! ❤

Meet client puppy Treble! ❤ OMD, he really is this cute!
We went over new puppy stuff - potty and crate training, alone training, how to get him to move on walks, to deter him from eating everything outside (nature... it's a dog's all-you-can-eat-buffet 😁) drop it, leave it, and come/here and touch.
Treble's parents are wonderful, they read and researched everything they possibly could about their new puppy. However, often times resources have conflicting information or the puppy's behavior doesn't adhere well to the guidance being offered. I'm so glad that they reached out to me early on for assistance to help get him on the right track. He's wonderful! ❤

So precious
He is adogable!
Meet client dog Hudson! ❤ Hudson is a wonderful young boy with only a few areas of concern. We went over how to reduce counter-surfing (hint: it does involve "people" training too 😄), leave it, go to bed, lie down, wait and stay, come/here and touch, and how to reduce (minor) jumping on guests at the door. His mom says he has really good intuition about her and swoops in when he sees that she might be in distress. ❤ Perhaps we have a therapy or service dog in the making? ❤
