Why easy walk harnesses and gentle leaders?
What is your walking equipment doing for you? Most equipment only tethers your dog to you during your walk. Some equipment even makes it easier and more natural for your dog to pull on the leash. The equipment we recommend here at Terric Canines are tools that go against the function of pulling. The function of pulling is to get

APDT 2022 Conference Daytona FL
We were fortunate to get to participate at the association of professional dog trainers conference (APDT). The previous year had been online due to the pandemic. This year we got to put our best paw forward in person. We learned allot at the conference and enjoyed getting some ocean air! Continued education in this line of work is critical. Were

Smooch your Pooch
Valentine’s Day at Dee-O-Gee was an absolute hit!!!

Rena
Feb 4th 2022 Rena crossed over the rainbow bridge. The hardest part of having a pet is losing them. The joy they bring us while they are here makes the pain of losing them worth it. Her paw prints will forever be on our hearts.

Socialize Your Puppies!!
Einstein has had an eventful week. He met a new friend Nala. They had a paw-some day playing together! Einstein enjoyed his safe play date with Nala. Socialization is very important at this age.

Einstein enjoys his Crate

Einstein the Canine
Einstein is all settled in! He is self-coping (a skill he has learned by crate training) and is gaining confidence! We are well on our way to avoid any separation anxiety issues that could occur down the road. He’s had his nail dremeled last week and will continue to get them done weekly to help him get accustomed to it.
