School For The Dogs

This pandemic pup is our student Chili! Named for his bright red coat, Chili has been stopped on the street by two separate women asking to take a picture to share with their own colorists! He was first introduced to School For The Dogs by his Uncle Barney who was one of our first students! Perhaps beauty school is next? Chili is taking over our stories this weekend. Be sure to follow along for the secret to those gorgeous lochs. ...

For two decades, Malena DeMartini has been helping people help dogs who have separation anxiety. In this episode, Malena joined Annie to discuss her new book, Treating Separation Anxiety in Dogs: Next Generation Treatment Protocols and... Practices. In it, she reveals some surprising updates to the protocols she suggested in her first book (spoiler: she now wants her clients to do LESS training than before). She and Annie also discuss her virtual school for coaching Certified Separation Anxiety Trainers, her client-facing course, Mission Possible, and how quarantine changed the way people understand what canine separation anxiety really is.

Congratulations to Kuro Bear, winner of the Brunch Snuffle Nosework Toy! This Corgi Mix found his forever home in the Bay Area. His humans report:... "We adopted Kuro internationally about 3 months ago and had to start from the basics when it came to training. We quickly learned the importance of structure. Kuro used to be very afraid of getting into a car and would pant the whole ride. Now, he is quick to jump into the car without any hesitation. Kuro then settles down and enjoys the ride!" Now Kuro can fuel up for long car rides with a nice big breakfast Photo credit: @Kuro Bear #corginstagram #instacorgi #doglife #doggo #dogoftheday #instadog #ig #corgismile #doglovers #doglover #corgidaily #puppies #corgioftheday #corgilovers #love #petsofinstagram #corgidog #corgisareawesome #dogsofinsta #fluffycorgi #pet #corgisftw #feature #diecast #corgisofig #tricolorcorgi #corgibreeder #matchbox #bluemerlecorgi #pets

He loves going to school, says the human belongings to our cute Maltese-Chihuahua student, Tofu, who is taking over our Stories this weekend. Just today we walked by on our way back home from the groomer, and Tofu walked straight to the door. I had to tell him, ‘Not today!’ I take that as a good sign.

Some dogs really freak out about loud noises. Unfortunately, too often, new dog owners learn this on a day when scary sounds abound: July 4th. In this episode, Annie talks to fellow trainer, Cheryl Gfrerer, about her personal experiences dealing with a sound-sensitive rescue dog, and together they discuss protocols and practical approaches to helping dogs who are triggered by fireworks and the like.

One of the best ways to build trust and love with your dog is through play. At School For The Dogs, our furry students sometimes struggled with other ‘food dis...pensing toys’ that were too frustrating. But then we found the Toppl by West Paw! Made of recyclable, latex-free rubber, the Toppl is an ingenious toy that you can stuff with wet food, peanut butter, dry food pretty much anything your dog loves (without it falling out too easily). Watch as your dog bats the Toppl around and eats what’s inside. It’s extended mealtime AND playtime all at once! Try out Toppl today, made in the USA and backed by a lifetime warranty!
