Missing on their wedding day! :( Pray fro safe return!

Here at The Academy, we recognize that new puppy owners have finite time and resources. For this reason, we believe that the vast majority of their eggs should ...be put in the socialization basket. Young puppies should have 100s of positive experiences with new people and other dogs in particular. Will this make them 'too friendly' when they see people and dogs in other contexts? Perhaps, if you believe in constructs like 'too friendly'. If a dog's love for strangers and unfamiliar dogs manifests as a manners problem, we simply train an incompatible behavior. We teach him to sit to be patted. We teach him to hold eye contact with us as a dog passes. We teach him to walk on a loose leash. Teaching manners is a far more attainable goal than modifying fear and aggression. And we owe it to our dogs to give them the best shot in this human culture we've immersed them in.

These two little ladies wanna say Congratulations!! To Carly & Tom who were married yesterday!! Hope you had a lovely time!! Pam had a blast babysitting these to cutie pies!! #puppies #congratulations #wedding #dogsitting

It’s Friday!! Let’s party At least Grover is ready! #happypup #partypup #happyfriday #playgroup #dogplaygroup #dogplaydate #puppyplaytime #dogfriends #dogsroc #rochesterpetcare #rochesterny #goldenretriever

Training Tip: I've mentioned it before but it's worth repeating. Practicing your dogs sit, in all different environments , while walking, with distractions, before opening the door to outside or basically anytime anywhere is critical for success in having calm behaviors in the world. If they can't sit when nothing's happening they won't be able to sit when there's something happening. So practice sitting! Bonus points for the eye contact!! #trainingtips #dogtraining #dogtrainer #rochesterdogs
