Training With Tallent

Hello all,

I am no longer doing dog trainings. Almost two years ago I had an injury, and against my better judgement, I went back to work and extra curriculars too soon and reinjuried myself resulting in a knee surgery and several injections in my lumber.
I apologize for the inconvenience, but it is in my best interest to make health and family my number one priority. I wish you and your puppy dogs the best, and thank you for your understanding!

Bumper deserves all the love! 🩷🐾

It was a test of the skills, and they aced it! Bumper and his human have building their relationship from lots of love to lots of love with structure.
With expectations set in place, and his human having all the right tools to work with his anxious excitement, we were able to walk all around Lowes with no jumping or pulling.
So proud of all the work they have put in to get this far. 🙂

Happy Friday!!! 🐾😀

"Does training last a lifetime?"

Well, have you ever heard of the saying "if you don't use it, you lose it"? Communication with your dog has to be consistent for the rest of their lives for training to last a lifetime. Thankfully, it is also like riding a bike. So, even if your pup starts lacking in performance, as soon as you rework the quicker they'll get back to it.

Summer is here!! So, be sure have plenty of water out and a nice shaded area for your puppy dogs when they have outside play time!

Stupid reasons I've heard on why people want to breed their family dog.

- I just want her to have a litter
- I think it will help them mature
- I want to have one of the puppies
- I think she'll make a good mom
- I have papers
- I think puppies are cute
- I want to make money

The list can go on, but it's simple. If you aren't doing it for the betterment of the breed from a highly educated position, you have no business breeding your family dog. Please spay and neuter your dogs!

8 Reasons NOT To Breed The Family Dog Breeding a dog takes more skill and money than most people know. Slip breeding the family and leave that to the professionals.

Due to the severity of the storm, all sessions will be delayed today. Please stay safe!!!

Training With Tallent would like to wish you a safe Memorial Day Weekend!

As we show our appreciation to the men, women, and dogs that that gave the ultimate sacrifice this weekend, please remember to secure your puppy dogs. 🎆

I know some clients that may appreciate this idea 😆

Happy Cinco De Mayo! And Happy Birthday to my rowdy little man, Kace 🥳🐾
