Relax. You’re not doing this alone.

Saturday, 10/17, 11a-5p | East Falls

East Falls Fest brings the neighborhood together for a full day of fall fun, local food, live music, family activities, and community connection. Alongside the regular Farmers’ Market, there’s a whole corner of the day dedicated to pets, with a Dog Costume Parade, trainers, groomers, treats, rescue organizations, watering stations, and more. We’ll be there talking dogs, building community, and celebrating the very good life that happens when people and their dogs get to do more of it together.

Sat-Sun, 10/24-10/25, 9a-5p | The Farm

Join Leigh for a two-day working clinic for people who are done collecting reactive-dog tips and ready to understand the whole picture. You will work beyond the barking and lunging to explore arousal, recovery, handling, movement, pressure, communication, environment, relationship, and the tiny moments that shape what happens next. The reaction is real, but it’s not the whole story.

If you’re new to OPB, come in for a sidekick session before the clinic so we can meet you before the work begins.

Only pre-registered dogs may attend.

A little spooky and a lot of puppy - this Halloween social is a chance for puppies to explore, play, learn, and practice being in the world together. We’ll keep it playful and thoughtful, helping those little nervous systems build confidence, connection, and some very important life skills along the way.

Come spend a fall day at the farm with us as we gather our people, our dogs, and all the wild little threads that made up this year. We’ll hike, play, wander, eat, laugh, and enjoy the simple magic of being together on the land. Friendsgiving is our way of slowing down, celebrating what we’ve built, and wrapping up the year in good company.

Saturday, 11/14, 12:30p-3:30p | The Farm

This 3-hour clinic is for dogs who go big, and the humans ready to get underneath the behavior, find the feel, and build real traction together. We’ll step into real-life scenarios, work with pressure, arousal, communication, and clarity, and learn how to help your dog come back to the ground when the world gets loud. This afternoon is about learning the dance, finding your way back to each other, and leaving with something you can actually carry into the real world.

If you’re new to OPB, come in for a sidekick session before the clinic so we can meet you before the work begins.

Working dog spots are limited; only pre-registered dogs may attend.

Behavior & Beyond is a two-day working clinic with Leigh for dogs and humans facing anxiety, fear, reactivity, shutdown, over-arousal, handling challenges, or behavior that simply doesn’t fit neatly into a box. Leigh looks beyond the presenting behavior to understand the whole picture, including learning, environment, handling, pressure, recovery, lifestyle, nervous system, and the relationship between dog and human. The behavior is where we start.

If you’re new to OPB, come in for a sidekick session before the clinic so we can meet you before the work begins.

Only pre-registered dogs may attend.

Start your year off strong - immerse yourself in a full weekend of learning with OPB and Jay Jack from GRC Dog Sports. This is one of the most honest, practical, and experience-driven approaches to dog training you can step into.

If you’re new to OPB, come in for a sidekick session before the clinic so we can meet you before the work begins.

If OPB has changed your life with your dog, pass it on. Referrals help build clearer communication, and dogs who can actually move through the world well. That matters.

When your friend joins us, we’ll send appreciation your way…gift cards, gear, and a proper thank-you for spreading the standard.
