Notes from the studio.
Walks, training notes, and the occasional rant about pack walks. Updated when we have something worth saying.
Why we'll never do pack walks.
A short, opinionated note on group walks: why other dog companies do them, why we don’t, and what changes when one person holds three leashes instead of one. It’s about safety, attention, and what your dog actually paid for.
All the writing.
The five-minute leash fix that changed everything.
One tiny adjustment to how you hold the leash. Works on pullers, lungers, and the dog who walks you instead of the other way around.
What we learned from 47 reactive dogs.
A pattern we noticed across years of working with reactive dogs: it’s almost never about the other dog.
A day at the brownstone, in nine photos.
From the 7:15am rush to the 4pm group nap. What an honest day at small-pack daycare actually looks like.
How to actually use a long line.
Sniffaris! What they are, why they’re the best gift you can give your dog, and the gear that makes them not terrifying.
Cold-weather paw care without panic.
Salt, ice, and frostbite myths. What we actually do in January and February to keep dogs comfortable.
The year in tails wagged.
Our 2025 numbers, our favorite walks, the dogs we said hello to and the ones we said goodbye to.
Once a month. No pressure.
A short note from the studio with one thing we learned, one dog who stole our heart, and one piece of advice you can actually use.
