101. Why You Are Failing at Dog Training

We've seen this a lot, people come in having watched HOURS of dog training videos online. Hopping from one tip or trick to another. The content is out there, great trainers posting great videos. BUT here is the problem. You may be seeing content that is designed for your dog a few weeks down the road, or they simply don't have the foundation the dog in the video has. If you don't know where you are going, it doesn't matter which way you go. This principle is universal, in personal growth, in dog training, in life. If you don't know where you are going, we can help you! A free no-commitment call can give you the vision and goal to start you on the road to a calm, canine companion.

100. Come & Be, Go & Become

"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.

99. Teach Your Dog (And Your Brain) to Focus

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  out of bed to his desk and studies while he stretches. He is using crawling as a  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.

98. How We Potty Train Puppies in 14 Days

“…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.
