    Advanced obedience looks like:

    • Holding "down" as multiple dogs recall towards and past you

    • K9 remaining in a "sit" while 5+ people call your dog to them

    • Loading into vehicle from 30 feet away (Or, K9 holding a vehicle load while you interact with others/complete a quick chore 30 feet away)

    • Advanced obedience also teaches your dog to "send to place" from a distance, even while 3 other dogs run to their beds.

    This class also introduces behaviors such as "in-motion obedience", "emergency downs", hand commands, high impulse control, intro to offleash freedom etc.

    All commands are now tested in a higher-drive environment around other working dogs, while on a 10-15 foot leash building on distractions, distance, and duration of their commands.

SIBLING RESET

  • The Sibling Reset: where strong bonds meet strong structure!

    This has been a highly requested service that I am happy to fully offer and promote in offleash or onleash programs!

    Read more below!!:

    Better Together: The Sibling Reset is a structured 3-week training program designed specifically for bonded or “sibling” dogs struggling with over-dependence, separation anxiety, or littermate syndrome behaviors.

    Brought on by COVID19's "shelter in place", I noticed a HUGE uptick in dogs born during COVID19's beginning years, had a lot of littermate syndrome, separation anxiety and confidence issues! This program and it's syllabus was curated just for dogs like Millie and Stark!

    I start by building each dog’s confidence and independence individually, then carefully reintroduce them with clear structure and expectations with more confidence within themselves, individual training plans with a joined understanding of obedience with in-home or on -adventure training!

    The result? Dogs who can think for themselves, respond reliably, and coexist calmly—without the chaos.

    Personalities intact, but a fair understanding of what is expected of each of them leaves with them after the B&T!
