Training highlights: Today we had a relaxed training day where we practiced all commands at home. The girls have been getting better at completing commands around the other dogs, but are still working on some confidence building. Holly loves to run around and jump around so it’s been important for me to teach her an understanding of boundaries. Her submissive urination has lessened but occasionally if she is overly excited, she was still urinate wherever she is. She has not been as sensitive to me, greeting her, or taking her in and out of the crate, and he’s no longer urinating at those times.

Training highlights: over the course of a day and continuously, taking the girls out with other dogs. I have noticed such big improvement in their mannerisms and confidence. Play time is super important for teaching dogs to respect the boundaries of others but it also have some fun after a challenging training session.

Training highlights:Training highlights: for the last few days we have been working on place command. This is super important when the pups go back home in order for them to both understand that they will be having a job whenever they are inside of the house and out in public. Mental stimulation has been super important for both of them and their confidence.

Holly has been doing great with other dogs and people. We have been working on her manners around other people so that she doesn’t jump on them when she initially approaches strangers. All commands have been going great and she is going into the down command more easily now
