Fiona | Rottweiler | Pasadena, CA | In Training

Meet Fiona! She's a two year old Rottweiler from Pasadena, California here for our two week board and train program! She's a fun and curious pup, but can be very reactive on the leash and often decides whether she is going to listen to her commands! Over the next fourteen days, we'll be working on Fiona's impulse control, her obedience skills, and showing her how to be the best pup she can possibly be! Stay tuned for Fiona's two week transformation!

Fiona has been a fun and lively addition so far! She’s full of personality and keeps things interesting. That said, she’s definitely been a bit of a handful—she’s reacted pretty strongly to several other dogs and puts a lot of effort into pulling on the leash during our walks. She’s got a determined streak, no doubt!

However, once we’re inside, it’s like flipping a switch. Fiona has been polite, sweet, and very friendly in the home. She settles down nicely and has shown that she can be well-mannered when things are calm. We’ve got some work ahead of us, but she’s already showing potential. Looking forward to seeing how she progresses!

Fiona has been settling in nicely and is starting to find her rhythm. We’ve been focusing on her Heel command and overall leash manners, and she’s showing steady improvement in both areas. She’s learning to stay close, follow direction, and check in more often during walks.

What’s been even more impressive, though, is how much progress she’s made around the other dogs. Today, she was able to walk relatively politely alongside another dog—something I honestly didn’t expect to happen this soon. Her ability to stay composed and respectful during that shared walk was a big step forward and shows how far she’s already come. Great job, Fiona!
