1941 - Coast Guard “training” a Great Dane

Due to the size and weight of a Great Dane the United States Military wanted to train them as working dogs in World War II.

The training program was so unsuccessful that it drove a dog training Sergeant to tears when he repeatedly tried to get a Great Dane to jump over an obstacle, the playful Great Dane would run up to the obstacle, grab the entire structure in his teeth and then bring it back to the Sergeant and place it at his feet wanting to play.

It was shortly after that the United States Military gave up training Great Danes for war.

Hi there! I have several openings for new clients. Are you seeking help with your pup or older dog? Perhaps you're a former client in need of a refresher? Let's get you scheduled!

Isn’t he handsome?
Of all the dogs I’ve trained I’ve never said I had a favorite until now
JJ completely stole my heart
He was such an amazing dog to train and super smart
What made it even better was his family worked with him
I have never graduated a lab at the age of 5 months. Usually that’s when the trouble is starting
But JJ I graduated tonight
I’m going to miss this boy!!

This needs repeated often
I can’t tell you how often I see someone fiddling anxiously with their leash and the dog is also anxious
STOP SHOWING YOUR ANXIETY THRU THE LEASH

If you can’t walk barefoot
Neither should they
Damage to a dogs feet can be horrible

Dogs know a good person

My last photo no personal space lol

Let’s talk leashes and how you handle them

Every time you hold the leash you are conveying to your dog your feelings
Anger or anxious you will be holding the leash tight and fiddling with it so your dog will also become anxious
Comfortable and relaxed
Guess what your dog will feel that and also be relaxed

I see so many people who have anxious dogs because they MADE them anxious
So be very aware of how you are holding your leash

Have you seen the movie Arthur the King?
It was so good especially for us dog lovers!!!

When your dog comes to the dog kennel because you’re tired of him, because he bothers you, prevents you from going on holiday or other excuses ...

He sits and waits.
He's waiting for you to come get him.
A second, a minute, an hour, a day, a month, a year --- he's waiting for you.
He doesn’t know why, but he’s waiting because he trusts you; because unlike you, he loves you.

Your dog is not a toy. Think twice before getting a dog. You have the responsibility of a living being and of a family member.
