Hi @Jeff Thomson , Eleven is doing well with the leash pop recall, and I'm getting close to start using the e-collar here in a few days when she's really got it cemented in. I have a good understanding of introducing the low level correction, but one thing we didn't discuss was your thoughts are on beeps and vibrations. Should i consider using them at this entry stage of e-collar work at all?

Welcome to this February's group of dogs and their owners! We've got our work cut out for us this month, that's for sure. This month We've got: Stetson, the black lab who will bite anyone and everyone for trying to put him in a crate. Todd, the terrier mix who attacks the owner's great dane at every opportunity. Norma, the Great Dane who frequently runs away, attacks livestock and is a general wrecking ball. Sosa, the Bully who's got some handler aggression issues as well as a general lack of manners and obedience Flynn, the chocolate lab/pit mix. Flynn has already been through the program but his owners had a few bite incidents with their new puppy Rudy (Rudy is the golden retriever puppy we trained last month). Flynn is staying with us for a bit to work on socialization and manners around other dogs when he's worked up. Cash, the human aggressive German Shepherd is halfway through his Aggression Rehab Program and is making HUGE strides now. And last but certainly not least Gem is staying with us for a week or so as part of her scent detection training program. Stay tuned to follow along with their progress, happy training guys!

Eleven has been getting all her food exclusively from me during morning and evening training sessions since the begging of the year (with a weekend break when I was traveling). Really like how “stay” is baked into the commands. She’s never been so responsive to commands. She’s also really getting good with heel positioning in just a few days. Sounds like recall games, leash pressure and introducing distractions coming up next. Excited to see where are go from here. Thanks @Jeff Thomson for the guidance.

We are happy to join the Paradigm family. Layla is an 18 month old GSD rescue. We are in our 70s and want to be able to love her into our 80s safely LoL. She is a sweetheart but reactive and VERY strong. Our hips are more of a concern than hers!!!🤣🤣

Merry Christmas from our crew to yours 🎄 Grateful for family, dogs, hard work, and everyone who’s been part of the journey this year. Hope today brings you peace, good food, laughter, and time with the ones that matter most. Stay safe, enjoy the day, and hug your dogs a little extra 🐾
