APPS FOR YOUR PHONE

  • Puppr created by  Sara Carson, who is considered one of the top dog trick instructors in the world and a top-5 finalist on season 12 of America's Got Talent with Hero. She and her dogs (@thesupercollies) travel North America teaching dog trick workshops and performing with a popular stunt dog team. We love this app for trick training and puppyhood tips. Lots of great things you can practice at home!
  • Sniff Spot is a fantastic resource! It’s like AirBnB but for yards, farmland and other private spaces that you can rent for 1 or more hours privately. Love this option for reactive dogs or training practice!
