Meet client puppy Sammy! ❤ She's so sweet and silly! ❤
We went over how to reduce nipping, chewing and barking, touch and come, drop it and leave it, go to bed, lie down, wait/stay and leash walking.
Sammy's mom made this adorable video for me. 😊

Cutie! Surely she doesn't do all those things? Lol...😘🐾🐾
Meet client dog Jetty! Would you look at that pretty, freckled-face girl! ❤ We went over how to reduce jumping on people and counters, to walk better on leash (somehow she took to this right away, clever girl!), go to bed, lie down (they call this "chill"), stay, and coming when called (did stellar on a long leash in Patterson Park, as well as in the tennis courts!)
Her mom wrote me: "Thank you so much for all you've done to help us manage Jetty and her high energy, puppy tendencies. She's much improved since the day we brought her home in January and we have you to thank for her transformation into a terrific member of our family." ❤

Meet client puppy Ruby! ❤ We've worked on reducing nipping (especially to her small human brothers!), come, wait, go to bed, lay and how to desensitize to ear handling to give ear drops.
During our first lesson, I learned that they were not utilizing a crate because Ruby didn't take to it. I spoke on the merits of crate training (potty training, preventing chewing mistakes when left alone, down time for puppy as well as family) should we able to get Ruby to enjoy it. We spent about 20 minutes discussing and doing hands-on exercises and that evening I received a text with a photo of Ruby lying in the crate with the door open relaxing! 😀 And ever since it's been a place to relax when the kids are too much for her, or she is being too much for the kids, and when she has to be left alone (teething is no joke, especially on furniture). Ruby's mom is also appreciating having some space away from puppy since she works from home. Now she doesn't have to be "on" all the time wondering what Ruby is up to. ❤

What an adorable little girl (at the moment)...🐾🐾❤
I LOVE the fact you're desensitizing to ear drops! I recently picked up the Cooperative Care book by Deb Jones. May need to book a private sessions with you to get over the hump on some things. Lol
I am in love with Ruby , she us giving me Boxer puppy fever . I am forever a Boxer mom
Ruby is beautiful!
So cute!!!
Cute puppy!
Meet client puppies Popper and Gray! ❤️ I worked with them separately on puppy concerns and basic skills. Together, we worked on appropriate play with one another. Since their moms are best friends, their hoping their kids will be BFFs too. By the looks of things, they are well on their way. ❤️

I'm having puppy wants!!! Darn cute fluffers.
They look like they’re having a blast. 🐾👍
Meet client dog Charlie! Will you look at that grin? ❤
We went over how to reduce jumping on people (he's doing so much better!), staying off furniture/teaching "go to bed", lie down, how to reduce counter-surfing, leash walking, and "leave it" combined with coming when called when outside (sadly no critters were out during our lessons to practice around).
Two things are still a work-in-progress: not licking faces (he can't help that he's such a lover! ❤ ) and not leaping OVER furniture to get to where he wants to go. 🙃
