Testimonials

Hi! My name is Sophie! The lady-who-loves-me-and-feeds-me (you humans call her Betsy) is always looking for things to do and ways to keep me busy. A year ago someone suggested this thing called K9 Nose Work®. We found a place in Bloomsburg called HeRo Canine Consulting run by a very nice lady named Silke! She convinced Betsy to just let me be a dog and use my nose the way it was intended to be used!! How much fun is this!!! I get to sniff out food and odor, and Silke is teaching Betsy how to stay out of my way – until I might need her! It’s the BEST!! You should really give it a try. Your dog will thank you and you’ll have a great time – Betsy and I sure do!!

Betsy Thompson and Sophie, Muncy PA

As my introduction to Canine NoseWork, Silke has been marvelous! She is able to combine a wealth of knowledge about dogs, an understanding of canine scenting skills, and a natural ability to teach humans with an approachable, friendly manner to create classes that are both enjoyable (for dogs AND humans) and productive.

Edy and I look forward to every class–I only wish we lived closer than over an hour away!

Lessons from the Lead – Part 8The Biggest Obstacle Standing Between You and Success Might Be... YouThere’s a saying I’ve carried with me for years:“The day you know everything is the day you stop learning.”The longer I’ve worked with dogs, the more comfortable I’ve become saying three simple words:“I don’t know.”Because confidence and ego are very different things.Confidence says, “I know what I know.”Ego says, “I know everything.”One keeps learning.The other stops.Dogs are brilliant at keeping us humble. They don’t care about our qualifications, followers, reputation or how many years we’ve been training.They simply respond to what we do today.Poor timing? Your dog will tell you.Unclear communication? Your dog will tell you.Inconsistency? Your dog will definitely tell you!Your dog isn’t trying to embarrass you.It’s giving you feedback.One of the biggest changes in my own journey came when I stopped trying to prove I was right and started trying to discover what was right.That means asking questions.Accepting mistakes.Listening to other people.Changing your opinion when better evidence comes along.And occasionally admitting:“I got that wrong.”That isn’t weakness.That’s growth.So whenever you step onto the training field, leave two things at the gate:Your ego and your excuses.Bring curiosity.Bring humility.Bring an open mind.And bring a willingness to keep learning.Because the best trainers I’ve ever met remained students long after everyone else started calling them experts.🐾 Food for Thought“The strongest minds aren’t the ones that know all the answers. They’re the ones that never stop asking better questions.”Your dog will humble you eventually.Thank them for the lesson and keep learning. ...

Lessons from the Lead – Part 2Stop Comparing Your Chapter Two to Someone Else’s Chapter TwentyComparison is one of the quickest ways to steal the enjoyment from dog training and life.Social media doesn’t help.We see the perfect recall, flawless heelwork, impressive indication, competition win or new qualification.What we rarely see are the failed sessions, mistakes, setbacks, muddy trousers or the tennis ball accidentally launched onto the garage roof!Social media is a highlight reel, not the whole story.Every dog has its own timeline.Some learn quickly. Others need more time. Some are naturally confident; others need patience and experience.Neither is wrong.Your dog doesn’t know another Labrador learnt to track earlier. It doesn’t care that somebody else’s Spaniel found its first hide two weeks sooner.Dogs don’t carry calendars. Humans do.And progress isn’t a race.Success might mean winning a championship for one handler.For another, it might simply mean walking through the park without their reactive dog barking.Both matter.The nervous dog that confidently walks through a doorway.The reactive dog that sees another dog and chooses not to react.The puppy that waits before jumping out of the car.These quiet victories might never go viral, but they’re often the victories that matter most.So stop looking over the fence.Learn from others.Be inspired by them.Celebrate their success.Then get back to your own dog.Measure your progress against where you started, not where somebody else appears to be.Small improvements, repeated consistently, create extraordinary results.Perhaps instead of comparing your Chapter Two with somebody else’s Chapter Twenty...Concentrate on writing a better Chapter Three.Because the only dog you’re responsible for improving today is the one at the end of your lead.Food for Thought“Comparison is the thief of joy, but consistency is the architect of progress.”Your dog doesn’t care whether you’re the best trainer in the country.It only cares that you’re the best trainer for them. 🐾 ...
