“Go To Place” is a happy solution for ...

So, the holidays are coming up…this is when the parties start! Does your dog jump, bark, growl, excitement pee or just act super hyper when someone comes to the door? Do they continue on badgering your guests after they’ve been there for awhile even when you’ve said no, or used the penny can a gazillion times? Dogs exhibit these behaviors for many reasons, such as: territorial aggression, anxiety, or straight up happy to see you. You need to be able to send them somewhere to...
The whole world is a dog’s toilet.
Posted by admin on Aug 21, 2011
Dogs don’t come potty trained (even if they are potty trained in one place, doesn’t mean they are in another). I always have to remind my clients that they’re animals and when they have to go, they’ll squat wherever they are. Think about it…the whole world is their toilet. They really don’t “know” and they certainly don’t do it out of spite. They’re just simply NOT potty trained.
Even if your pup only has one accident a week, he...

Thank Dog! Bootcamp is coming out with a mobile app! We get calls and emails every day to bring one of our bootcamps to your area.

Understanding your dogs’ bark.
Posted by admin on May 25, 2011
One problem I deal with a lot is excess barking. It can be disruptive in public places and of course, at home. Nobody likes to hear dogs bark, however, to get them to stop, the owner must figure out why, if not behavioral, it’s happening. Because they can’t talk, it’s good to understand what a bark is and why they do it. Barking is a dogs natural way of communicating and if we expect them to understand our communication, unfortunately, they need us to understand...

Thank Dog! Bootcamp…a lifestyle?
Posted by admin on May 1, 2011
Thank Dog! Bootcamp is really something special. We managed to combine the 2 things that make dogs and people healthy and stress free. That’s right…it’s a concept…one that has taken off since we started in 2007. Bootcamps just like ours are opening up everywhere and we are proud to say we invented it. No, we didn’t invent working out with your dog. We also didn’t invent training your dog. What did we invent then?
The concept of a person being able to...
