Why do some dog trainers show really dramatic before and afters, and some don’t?

A shorter leash, less off leash time, more crate time, less attention.
These are all ways that we used to train dogs (and you may have had someone recently advise this, as dog training is not a regulated industry).

Is two really better than one?

I dismissed my own dog from daycare today.

We all want a happy, confident dog. Whether your dog is a patio buddy, a 6am soccer practice companion or your avid adventure copilot, you need them to feel safe and self assured.

I was so sure I didn’t want to work with dogs.

Let me tell you a story.

Being a good trainer requires that we deal with our emotions and not let them get in the way of our decision making and planning.

There is this myth that I really really loathe. So much so, and in so many ways, that this is going to be a two parter!
