Stellar Canine

We’re excited to share that Stellar Canine was voted BEST Dog Trainer and Woman-Owned Business in St. Tammany! 🏆🐾

To everyone who took the time to vote, recommend us, share our posts, tell a friend, or trust us with your dogs over the years — thank you!

What makes this especially meaningful is that it came from the people we've had the privilege of working with.

The dogs who challenged us.
The owners who showed up.
The families who put in the work long after training ended.

Getting to be part of those stories is one of the best parts of this job.

This job has introduced me to some incredible dogs, amazing people, and stories I’ll never forget. For that, I’m incredibly grateful.

Thank you for allowing Stellar Canine to be a part of you and your dog's story!

We're honored, grateful, and excited for everything still to come. 💜🐾

Marshall was a hit today at Lemonpalooza🍋💛

Marshall took on Lemonpalooza like it was just another day 🍋🐾

Kids. Crowds. Food. Music. Bubbles.
A lot of stimulation — and a lot for a young dog to take in.

And he handled it like a gentleman.

Mr. Social Butterfly soaked up the attention
without getting overwhelmed by it —
and when it was over?

Straight into a nap like he earned it 😴

That’s the goal.

Not just a dog who listens in a quiet environment…
but a dog who can go out, experience the world, and feel comfortable in it.

A lot of dogs don’t struggle because they’re “bad.”
They just haven’t been shown how to handle this level of stimulation yet.

Marshall’s learning how — and it’s been fun to watch it come together.

Go Marshall 🐾
St. Tammany Fire Protection District 3

Proud to be a small part of this one 🔥🐾
Marshall’s putting the pieces together.

Really excited to see where he goes from here!

🐾 Quick scheduling update for Stellar Canine 🐾

To keep things running smoothly and make sure the dogs here are getting the best care (and as much quality time out as possible), I’ll be moving to more structured drop-off and pick-up windows.

Weekdays:
AM: 8:30–10:30
PM: 4:00–6:00

Weekends:
AM: 9:00–11:00
PM: 3:00–5:00

These windows help me stay fully present with the dogs instead of being pulled away throughout the day.

If you’re a current client, I’ll just ask that you plan for and communicate a specific time within those windows so everything flows smoothly!

I know this is a bit of a shift, but it allows me to keep things consistent for all of the dogs in my care — which is always the goal.

Yeti’s story is a good reminder that training isn’t about perfection — it’s about building something that works in your real life.

Every dog and every family is different.
What matters isn’t checking boxes — it’s solving the problems that actually impact your day-to-day.

That’s why I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all training.

I meet the dog in front of me.
I meet the family where they are.
And we build from there.

I’m really grateful Yeti’s family trusted me with him — because of that, his world has opened up in a big way.

More freedom.
More experiences.
More time doing the things he loves safely.

Because when training is done right,
it doesn’t just change behavior —
it changes what life with your dog looks like. 🐾
