Canine Bliss

Took the dog in and asked for help. Public, one on one or private lessons. She declined all. Too much trouble on a leash? I have him sitting, staying, shaking a paw, chasing a ball, and walking without a leash. I think I could have picked up some tips had she been willing to help. But I think it will work out fine now that he's acclimated to us. By the way, we have strange dogs here all the time as there are usually 3 or 4 RV'S here each week. I don't really understand unless mostly trained dogs are easier for her to finish.

Kris is amazing! We finished classes about a month ago and are still implementing everything that we learned. I didn’t realize how much it is possible to impact our puppy’s behavior by modifying our own behavior. We leaned so much but, the most useful is “a tired dog is a good dog”. I work full time and my husband is lucky if he only works 60 hours. So, when we get home and our pup is being a terror I just remember “a tired dog is a good dog”. Then we take her to the dog park and let her run and we play with her. It is so much easier than her having all the pent up energy. When she masters everything from the basic class we will be taking her back to learn more. I can’t praise them enough.
