Why are dog rally cards so expensive? We'd like to get our dog started training, but man! #DogTraining #Dogs #Dog

Cody, our reactive Australian Shepherd, finished his last day in his scentwork class. He is all smiles and more relaxed than he's ever been. Yay for dogs having jobs! #Dog #Dogsofmastodon #Dogs #DogsofPixelFed #Mastodog #dogtraining #ScentWork

Preparing a lesson for a client I worked with when their dog was a puppy. The pup has now reached adolescence and is over-the-top reactive to everything, especially at night. Teenager brain! The part of their brain that controls emotions is developing faster than the part that tells them everything is fine. The good news is it’s temporary, but we will have to work on extra management, redirection and counter-conditioning. #DogTraining

This is a miracle. Cody has become quite reactive after being attacked by a pitbull last year. We enrolled him in scent training classes, and he's sitting next to five other dogs. But he's so excited about training, that he is relaxed and calmly waiting his turn to go search for scents. So proud of him! #dogs #Dog #Dogsofmastodon #DogTraining
