New Face in for Puppy Imprinting
Old friends and new furry faces. Some of of our good friends/past clients visited the dojo this morning to get puppy imprinting started with their brand new GSD ‘Cheaua’. I Have been blessed to meet many awesome individuals throughout my dog journey and it’s so fun to have clients return with new puppies ready for another adventure...looking forward to seeing this team grow with their new addition! #puppyimprinting #germanshepherdpuppy #yurtlife #dogtrainingmissoula

Gaia in for Puppy Imprinting
Meet Gaia, newest recruit in for puppy imprinting! This pup has some Newfie, pyr, heeler and border collie in her bloodline.

In Gaia’s case the border collie brain and eagerness to problem solve shined in her first lesson! #puppyimprinting #runyourpack #workyourpack

Puppy Imprinting Obstacle Work

Socialization, at its c

Malinois Puppy's in for Imprinting!
Couple of Malinois in the yurt for puppy imprinting today. ***disclaimer these cute puppies are not for everyone. Although I adore the breed and am having fun with them in the photo, I strongly encourage anyone considering this breed to strongly evaluate whether it is a good fit for them. The owner of these pups has a proactive laundry list of disciplines he wants them to learn over the next years : shed hunt, protection, competition obedience. He is excited to dedicate a lot

The WORST part about being a dog trainer...Puppies.
Puppies. They are awful. Small, fluffy, big eyes, innocence. I mean I do not understand what all the fuss is about... So obviously I am kidding. Anyone with a pulse loves puppies (unless of course they are a cat person...but I won't go there...).
I have been getting lots of inquiries regarding puppy training lately and that is fantastic. I LOVE seeing dog owners be proactive with training before issues arise. Whether you are interested in a high drive working dog or a fami
