Chocolate Lab

E-Collar Training A Reactive Dog

March 10, 2022 By Sara Bryanton Leave a Comment

E-Collar training a reactive dog is never an easy task to take on, however, Finnigan’s family was ready to commit.

We are so proud of this family and the amount of effort they put into training their dog. Their dedication was truly inspiring and completely changed their lives as well as Finnigan’s.

E-Collar Training a Reactive Dog

“The best thing I ever did was go to Unleashed Potential for training our Chocolate Lab, Finnigan.

I was against the e-collar for a long time until it was explained and demonstrated to me. This saved my dog’s life multiple times.

He would dart for the road when someone or something would go by and by using proper commands, along with the e-collar and rewards, we were able to keep him safe.

Our dog loved training and you could see the confidence grow in him along with myself as we learned together.

I think that the best thing you can do for your dog is get them into training so that they can live up to their full potential and you can enjoy your new addition to your family.

I have learned that dogs love to work and they are very happy when doing so!

Thank you Sara for helping me get Finnigan’s behavior to a better place and helping us have the confidence to tackle the fear aggression he had.

Forever grateful.”

– Owner Lisa

Out of Control Lab, Ginger- Testimonial

November 3, 2017 By Camellia Saunderson 1 Comment

Thank You Unleashed Potential The Valley!! Ginger the lab is out of control no more! See Video Below!

A few months after getting our lab/retriever, Ginger, daily life started to become stressful. The kids didn’t want to play with the her because she would bite at them and knock them over, and my husband refused to walk her anymore because she pulled so hard on the leash even an anti pull harness didn’t work. Ginger was relentlessly; she went after anything that moved, cat,s birds, leaves ect., she would eat everything she looked at, including large rocks. Life was just crazy!

We tried a trainer that taught us how to get her to sit but she wouldn’t stay. It got to the point where her day was spent getting yelled at or locked away in a kennel because we couldn’t take her anywhere or do anything with her. I was very skeptical that training would do anything to change her hyper personality but the only other option was to give her away, so after some research and asking around, we found Camellia. Immediately after beginning training I could see changes in Ginger. A 20 minute session had her panting exhausted, but she LOVED it and I was enjoying spending that time with her. Whenever I had questions Camellia quickly responded and gave advice that actually worked! After hitting a rough spot with some behaviors we weren’t sure how to deal with, we sent Ginger away with Camellia for a 5 day board and train. You wouldn’t think that much would change in 5 days, but it has tremendously!

Now my family could not be happier because life is way less stressful for everyone, including Ginger. She is actually now a part of our family, not an annoyance. I am able to take her out with confidence and my kids are begging to do stuff with her. She has become something I am proud of, not something I am apologizing for when I have guests over.

I would completely recommend Camellia as a trainer to anyone who is possibly hitting their breaking point or who wants to avoid that in their future. Her level of knowledge of dogs and their behaviors is exceptional. We are so pleased and content in knowing that no matter what challenges we come up against, Camellia will be there to guide us through it.
