Dogs On The Run

Bringing home a new puppy or kitten is exciting but a few small mistakes early on can create long term challenges.

We see it all the time:

Waiting too long to socialize
Focusing only on physical exercise
Inconsistent boundaries
Skipping early pet care support
Lack of routine

The good news is most of this is preventable with the right structure, support, and planning. Early habits shape lifelong behavior, confidence, and emotional health.

At Dogs On The Run, we believe thoughtful, proactive pet parenting makes all the difference.

🐶 Fear Free Puppy Socials at Dogs On The Run 🐾

Early habits don’t just shape behavior — they shape confidence, resilience, and how your puppy experiences the world.

Our Fear Free Puppy Socials are designed to give puppies a safe, positive foundation during the most important stage of development. Through carefully structured social sessions, puppies learn how to interact, explore, and grow without overwhelm.

In this 5-week series, we focus on:
✔ Positive, supervised puppy play
✔ Healthy communication and social skills
✔ Confidence building through new experiences
✔ Bite inhibition and early manners
✔ Calm exposure in a Fear Free environment

This is intentional socialization — not just playtime — helping prevent fear, reactivity, and anxiety later in life while building a more balanced adult dog.

🐶🚀 Rapid Recall starts this Saturday at Dogs On The Run 🐾

If your dog has a “sometimes I come… depending on what’s happening” recall, this class is built to change that.

Rapid Recall is a **game-based training experience** designed to build a fast, reliable, and enthusiastic response when you call your dog, even around real-world distractions.

In this class, we focus on:
✔ Building a recall your dog actually wants to respond to
✔ Strengthening focus around dogs, people, and environmental distractions
✔ Turning recall into a fun, rewarding game instead of a struggle
✔ Increasing speed, clarity, and reliability over distance
✔ Creating real-world results you can trust beyond the training space

This isn’t about repeating cues, it’s about building understanding, motivation, and consistency so your dog chooses to come back every time.

Pet sitters and dog walkers — how are you connecting with clients right now?

We’ve been having a lot of conversations lately about how much things have shifted. Are you finding most of your clients through word of mouth, apps, or social media?

At Dogs On The Run, we’re a local pet care concierge service built on a partnership model. We connect independent pet care professionals with pet parents who are looking for trusted, reliable support — without the feel of traditional employment.

Right now, we’re looking to meet more experienced sitters and walkers in the area who are interested in growing their client base while being part of a supportive, professional network.

If that sounds like something you’d be open to, comment below or send us a message. We’d love to connect.
