As you work with your dog this weekend, and during the upcoming week...whether working your way through behavior modification, relational obedience work, off-leash, leash aggression, tricks, etc...remember the idea: "Challenge your dog, but never overwhelm..." This is a quote I heard from a trainer who heard it from another trainer, etc... I think it's important to observe our dogs and reflect on our training: We need to help them succeed, push them forward as needed little by little, but we can also overtrain our dogs, we can set too high of goals, we can confuse our dogs too much, etc... Good luck this week coming up! Keep it simple, have a plan most of the time...and most importantly, enjoy the time with your pup! Love you all! Thanks for being here! Have a wonderful weekend!

Posted this recently on Instagram, YouTube, etc...they'll be following along in smaller doses there...but for our Skool Community here, I'll be giving lots and lots of extra footage to really show you the full story of how it all happens. This video is Part 1, and I'd recommend watching the whole thing...for those of you who are interested. Please ALWAYS reach out with any questions or feedback or curiosities...in the comments below or in a chat, or wherever!

Come ready with any questions (the good, the bad, the ugly) OR you can also send me the question prior to via text or chat, or WhatsApp. Hope you can make it! Looking forward to seeing those of you who can make it this evening!

Rip & Nova were really “thankful” to play a little bit in Babbo & Nonna’s basement. Here’s a fun still-shot🤣
