CANINES & KIDS
Athena, a young female Belgian Malinois, exhibited excessive energy, frequent jumping, and poor bite inhibition, lacking control in her bite strength and accuracy. Her owner sought to instill in her the essential life skills through proper training mechanics.
Athena underwent a comprehensive program tailored to her needs, including a balanced regimen of sleep, mental stimulation, training, and exercise. Through focused engagement techniques, socialization with our resident dog Gracie, and dedicated practice, she significantly improved in bite inhibition, loose leash walking, impulse control, and attentiveness amidst distractions.

THOR
Proudly Serves Greater Phila Search & Rescue Team
Thor, a German Shepherd and a working SAR (Search and Rescue) dog, struggled with leash reactivity, particularly towards other dogs, excessive pulling during walks, and high stress levels, partially due to not receiving enough mental stimulation appropriate for a working breed. He was also notably reactive to people near the vehicle.
Switching Thor's walks from the neighborhood to the park with a long leash gave him the necessary space to engage his senses, reducing frustration caused by a shorter leash. Through numerous counterconditioning sessions with our resident dog, Gracie, Thor learned to be more at ease around other dogs. His ability to handle proximity to dogs has significantly improved, alongside notable enhancements in focus and responsiveness.
HUCK
Huck, an adolescent mixed breed male, showed apprehension and excessive excitement around guests, even reacting towards a few people. His owners were keen on understanding his body language and managing his behaviors at home, aiming to enhance his focus, engagement, and recall.
Under our guidance, they introduced mental stimulation and interactive play, such as tug games, established a guest arrival routine, and increased Huck's leash time in the park. These measures progressively improved his recall, even with distractions and at greater distances.
CODY
Cody, a male, mixed breed 5 year old, was profoundly afraid of the outdoors, struggling with the trauma of a harsh past. He was terrified of loud noises, other dogs, and moving vehicles, exhibiting stress through constant shaking and pacing, and barely managed short walks due to his leash discomfort.
After a series of ten training sessions, Cody has remarkably transformed. He's now more responsive to his owners, shows improved recall, and enjoys enhanced daily mental stimulation. Gradually adapting to city sounds and longer walks, Cody has also benefited from training and playing with our resident dog, Gracie, showcasing significant progress in his confidence and behavior.
