Congratulations to this recent group of Ecademy graduates! We put in 5 intensive days of training, learning, discussion, and practice.

I applaud all of these women for their commitment to continuing education. Some came to hone their skills with the ecollar after being familiar with the tool; others sought to go outside of their comfort zone, to learn more about remote collars and how different training methods may be a new way to help their clients.

We accomplished A LOT in a short period of time and worked with a large group of dogs. Ah-ha moments were had, and we both talked about and saw first-hand how ecollar training can provide dogs increased freedom quickly.

Keep up the good work — show more pet owners what it really means to be ! 🐾

This handsome boy needs a home.

I'm teaching my 5-day Ecademy course and he is one of the dogs the professional trainers are working with. We've been working with him (and making nice progress) for the past few days. My understanding is he is 4 years old. In his previous life he and his sibling sister were allowed to roam free...which got him into trouble worrying livestock and killing chickens. (So basically behaving like a predator...which is what dogs will often do when left of their own devices.🤦‍♀️)

I see lots of potential that he could be a great companion. He needs some structure, a stable home, and some productive outlets (like chasing a ball rather than chickens)!

I'll donate some free lessons IF you're committed to doing the work and ensuring he gets the care and time he deserves.
