Imagine this: You are at the vets office and the vet is looking at your dogs paws, tail, ears, even in their mouth and your dog is acting like it is a normal day in paradise. Your vet is in shock, and you, yes you, are the proud owner of a well handled dog. The best part? Your dog is content because they know this is a normal part of life. Give your dog the gift of composure. All dogs will go through a vet's office, help them understand being handled is no big deal. This is something you can teach YOUNG. Start them early. Having a breeder that knows their stuff when it comes to raising puppies gives you a huge advantage. Green Valley Aussies have stellar dogs, that are well bred and are handled right. We were invited to work with their dogs to showcase some handling techniques.

"Come and Be, Go and Become" Is something that Jason invited his students to do every day. To be present, to focus and be, then go out and become. This invitation hasn't changed. To dogs and especially to their families, we invite you to come and be, then go and become. Around here, we do things a little differently. We don't want to simply teach your dog commands. Commands that when it gets crazy they can't remember, but we want to teach them how to become the best canine companion they can be. In this episode Jason talks about why becoming is important, and how struggle is a part of that becoming. Tune in to hear all about it! Come and be a part of our online community, and go and become the best owner you can be. Have a calm, canine companion in 8 Weeks or less.

Jason *literally* crawls out of bed. There is no dread for the day that approaches, it is actually for the habit he is creating. First thing he does when he wakes up is study. It is a long time habit, and one that he loves. Recently he has had some trouble with his planter fasciitis (pain in his feet) and really should stretch first thing, but had a hard time making the habit. So instead of immediately putting pressure on his feet, he crawls out of bed to his desk and studies while he stretches. He is using crawling as a cue to start his day by stretching. We use cue's constantly! Think of your phone, how often it goes off, and how hard it is to fight the urge to look at it. Now what does this have to do with your dogs focus?! Well, dogs have so many cues, they are keen to them. The doorbell, the treat bag opening, the noise of your keys, they have so many cues that it can be hard to stay on task and focus on one. We are going to teach you how to give more focus to your dog. Empower you and your dog! Enroll in our program that focuses on your dog and YOU! In 8 weeks you will. have a transformed canine companion.

“…My mind was blown at just how easy it was and how much it really changed our lives. How great it was to have a solid night of sleep." Being the mom of 7, now 8 kids, I had never looked into sleep training because our kids had done, well, fine. It wasn’t a huge deal. Until I dug a little deeper and realized I could get that extra sleep, faster. It got me thinking about all the puppies and all the dogs that we have had come through and we’ve tried so many things and we figured out a lot of it just by the sheer amount of working with so many dogs coming through our home. I thought if I as a mom of 7, now 8 kids didn’t know about sleep training, then people that are getting their very first puppy definitely don’t know these things about a puppy. I wanted, I NEEDED, people to know, even those who have had six other puppies before this, that crate training isn’t something you have to survive and live through. When really there is so much that can be done that is going to make your life so much better. So let’s jump in. Don't just survive puppyhood. Enjoy the small moments, and a good night sleep.
