Willow | Australian Cobberdog | Playa Vista | In Training

Meet Willow! 🐾 She is a one-year-old Australian Cobberdog who is as sweet and loving as they come. Willow absolutely loves playing with other dogs and making new friends with everyone she meets. Her happy, social personality shines wherever she goes, and she brings such a fun, playful energy with her.

Willow is joining us for three weeks in our Board and Train program. She already knows some basic commands, but we’ll be restructuring and strengthening her advanced obedience skills. We’ll be focusing on improving her recall, building better engagement and focus, reducing excessive sniffing during work sessions, and teaching her how to manage her excitement so she no longer jumps on people. We’re excited to help Willow channel her enthusiasm into polished, reliable obedience — stay tuned for her progress! 🐶✨

Today was our first session with Willow! After Mom left, we took some time to get acquainted and build a little connection. She was understandably a bit distracted at first, curious about Mom’s whereabouts, and gave a few barks — but she settled in nicely once she realized she was safe and in good hands.

Willow was very interested in the dogs around us and spent quite a bit of time sniffing and taking everything in. A few children ran by and were eager to play, and it’s clear she is incredibly friendly and a big fan of doggie playtime. Since she already has some basic training, I asked her to perform a few commands so I could see where she’s at. I’m really looking forward to the next three weeks as we begin to sharpen her obedience, improve her focus, and help her channel all that sweet, social energy into more structured work. 🐾✨
