Instead of studying dog training, what if we start studying the DOG and teaching OURSELVES?!

In these programs you will learn THE BEHAVIOR SOLUTIONS HACK! Whether it is puppy raising or behavior solutions, the process is the same every time!
Our Goal: Understand what our dog is going through, respond in a meaningful way.
Our Compass: This 2 part awareness.
Our Foundation: Understanding how dogs raise their children.
Our Method: Responsively relating and communicating in a meaningful way.
Your Result: A dog who can go everywhere and do everything with ease.
These workshops are interactive, hands-on and fun!
Ready for a little NURTURE BY NATURE?
Tickets sales are conveniently through the site. You can attend with or without your dogs.
FAQ: Should I bring my dog?
Answer: If it won’t be distracting for you, feel free to bring your dog. The main value of the workshops are the lessons people can extract from the experience. Optimal learning should be the goal for attendees.

IMPULSE CONTROL WORKSHOP – 1:00 PM, April 20th, 2024
Location: YDBF Training Center – 225 Border Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55405
Cost: $75
Impulse control issues are rated #1 by dog parents in “Things That Ruin My Relationship With My Dog”. Nurture gaps in this area often result in catastrophic events. Inclusion requires self control. Staying safe requires impulse control. If you found out that dogs raised by dogs are less likely to require restraint for compliance than people raised by people, would it inform how you relate with your dog? We know it will! You’ll enjoy watching your dog respond to awareness and communication rather than force and restraint during this program.

SHY DOG TRANSFORMATION – 1:00 PM, April 6th, 2024
Location: YDBF Training Center – 225 Border Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55405
Cost: $75
Dogs raised by dogs have better social and emotional health than people raised by people. Traumatized dogs recover faster around dogs than traumatized people do around other people.
Unlock your animal intuition as you enter a dogcentric world with us where we will uncover the methods that we can learn from dog society and use them to help our shy and fearful dogs.
With a foundation in natural dog communication you will find it effective and fun to start to identify: what is my dog going through and how to I respond in a meaningful way. It is uplifting and inspiring to see how “dog listening” can lead to quick transformations for dogs and their families who have been struggling for years and have already tried “everything”.

MASTERING THE LEASH WALK – 1:00 PM, March 9th, 2024
Location: YDBF Training Center – 225 Border Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55405
Cost: $115
The message is sent and received the moment I show my dog that the leash gives me power when I pull. Come learn how to use the leash as a communication tool. You and your dog can erase bad habits together or you can raise your puppy to never know that the leash can restrain! You will enjoy the end where they walk with you without holding the leash. If you sell choke collars, prong collars, harnesses, no pull harnesses, no jump harnesses & gentle leaders, you may not like this workshop!

AGGRESSIVE DOG TRANSFORMATION – 1:00 PM, March 2nd, 2024
Location: YDBF Training Center – 225 Border Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55405
Cost: $135
Training aggressive dogs is hard, but not for the reasons one might think. Most dog training is oriented around teaching information. So what happens when our dog needs social and emotional support? What happens when this lack results in our dog acting out in a way that is dangerous? The answer is dog training breaks down and we are stuck with the same fear and confusion that our dog is experiencing.
Our solution is a dogcentric approach where we aim to understand what our dog is going through and then respond in a meaningful way.
Our guide is a two part recognition. My dog is socially brilliant & my dog thinks like a good person.
Our tool is natural born intuition.
With this foundation you will find it effective and fun to start to identify, what is my dog going through and how to I respond in a meaningful way. It is uplifting and inspiring to see how “dog listening” can lead to quick transformations for dogs and their families who have been struggling for years and have already tried “everything”.
