Harley is a nine month old black and tan Pug. I work full time and my mom watches him two days per week. I had him enrolled in a puppy class at PetSmart, in which he did graduate from. However, after a week or so in the intermediate class, I had to drop out because my other Pug (diabetic and blind) got sick. Every time I bring the dogs to this PetSmart, Oliver gets very sick. His immune system is weak and I think perhaps the place is not sanitized like it should be. I think Harley passed some virus to him. The trainer is very good, but my dogs get sick after a groom at this place, or a training session.

Anyway, I want to try something different.

We are having one heck of a time properly potty training Harley. He waits to take a poop in his kennel (using Forbid to help prevent him from eating it) as we are eating dinner. While I am working in my kitchen, I have him in a playpen and it is hit or miss with his pooping. I would like to work on this and get additional training.

Not sure if you have evenings, Saturdays and Sundays available for training.

Please let me know. I am interest in exploring other training opportunities with Dogology for Harly.

Raise your hand if you’ve had this experience: You’re hanging out in the living room watching TV, and you hear a knock. Your dog immediately launches themselves off the couch, barking their head off as they skid toward the front door. You follow along in their wake, grab their collar, open the door a crack, […]
