Well Mannered Mutts

Welcome Carl & Lana to their training era 🐾🔥

We kicked things off last week by stripping it back and building a REAL foundation—because when you’ve got a multi dog household, structure isn’t optional… it’s everything 👏🏻

Here’s what we’re cleaning up 👇🏻

Carl:
• Neutral leash walks (no more “main character energy” around every dog)
• No off-leash chaos chasing deer, rabbits, or anything that moves
• Choosing mom over the environment (yes, even with distractions 👀)

Lana:
• Start thinking for herself instead of copying Carl’s questionable decisions
• No more launching herself at people, counters, or gates
• Helping mom step into that leadership role with confidence

What we started with:
Leash work — changing direction + engagement > dragging your human around
Recall games — making coming back the best option, not the last one
Placement — boundaries, off-switch, and learning to just exist without being ON 24/7

This phase? It’s all about clarity, consistency, and accountability.
For the dogs AND their human 👏🏻

They’re sweet dogs with big hearts… they’ve just been freelancing a little too hard without clear direction. Give them a few weeks of consistency and clarity, and you’ll start seeing those good decisions roll in 💗🐾
