Oriole, the 7 year old Bichon Frise male dog and FINE-TUNED CANINES Board and Train dog training program student in Florida

Yesterday, another canine student joined FINE-TUNED CANINES Board and Train program. Our new student is a 7 year old Bichon Frise male dog and his name is Oriole.

Oriole did not have any previous training and is ready for some new mental challenges and for broadening his intellectual horizons. 

Oriole's already learning new skills and he met his canine faculty as well: professor Shakti and professor Chopper. :) 

Oriole's major fields of study include "good manner-ology", the "art of loose leash walking" and the "philosophy of barkless living", but this smart little guy's accomplishments will quite likely exceed all expectations. 

Remember: it is NEVER too late to start training your dog! Dogs learn their whole lives, just like humans. Proper canine education is a chance for your dog to develop his or her potential and talents. 

We are very excited about getting to know Oriole's sparkly personality and assisting him in discovering his talents.

It's been a while since one of our fantastic canine students Brodie (Board and Train program graduate and also Board and Brush-up happy camper), came here for the first time. It is hard to believe that it was over one year ago when Brodie started his Board and Train program. We were told at that time that Brodie had previously been to another training program; however Brodie's owners were still not able to control their big pup.

I finally organized some video clips from Brodie's Board and Train program into a movie. YES! It is BRODIE's big movie premiere!:) ENJOY and please feel free to share!

 

Our new trick training movie is here, starring CHOPPER (English Cocker Spaniel - working type), his "big sister" Shakti (Shiloh Shepherd female), and his canine friends Eli, Lucy (both Shiloh Shepherds) and Brodie (Golden Retriever).

The movie includes multiple dog tricks and skills. Turn the sound on. Enjoy and please feel free to share (sharing is caring).

This video is simply breathtaking... What can I say...I'm "just a human", but I feel blessed and honored to be accompanied by dogs in my life and I am grateful for being able to be surrounded by the ones that have the purest hearts and spirits - the dogs...We humans could learn so much from "just a dog". I do every day.

If you feel the same, please "like" this post. Please feel free to post comments about "just a dog" phrase you might have heard from other people...
