👝🐕Tiny Tuesday was a hit!

🕴️Tiny Tux showed all his classmates how a mini poodle can rock! Showed everyone up in the enrichment activities.

😎Chilly Milly cruised her way to through the day chasing Tux around 😆

🦀Cranky Hanky learned to loosen up around his classmates. So he walked around exploring the classroom and even hung out with the fellow teenies.

💨Dashing Darcy was heaps slower today in his Waist Deep program. What a tremendous turnaround already!

🪿 Silly Goose was a lot less silly today. Catching and taking food happily, playing with her boy Darcy and feeling tons more secure in her classroom.

🧠 Genius Ginnie is getting the hang of right turns at Heel. Without reinforcers present she is able to perform.

🐺 Koda…the Rock her classmates lean on. She’s had a wonderful day. No one touched her. Always a great way to end the day 😝

🦣👸🏼A certain fuzzy wuzzy Princess came along the Brainery Bus Ride today.

🥘 Today we learnt a Ton:

😮 Koda the Yodler does not like cuddles
🥰 But she will give me time
🤩 Louie can be a heap of fun
🤩 Milo wants to be a heap of fun
🤗 Aunty Nahni always makes sure that the boys are good to me
🏰 I can use obstacles as safe places when I need a rest

🤩 💗 🐕 Today has been super rewarding!

🐶 Our little ones have all had a major leap forward!!!

🪿 Goose can have a 2 way conversation. Is taking food. Can catch food. Can spin for food. Walk nicely on lead. Remain calm in the crate. And even take herself away when she’s needing a rest.

🏝️ This is why the Waist Deep program is so valuable to each new student.

⏰ We ain’t in a hurry to smash a square block into a round hole.

🦇 Mogwai Milly has had a tremendous turnaround! She is not just taking food…but she’s stealing it!!! That’s a clue as to how comfortable she is now. She’s even whinging st me if I don’t work her hard enough 😮

🤵‍♂️ Tuxi Ducks also has us a massive surge forward! Now we are doing happy little dances and trying out scary stuff…just because. Remember when he would only eat the right type of bread? Now she’s eating entire meatballs!!!

😇 Thank God for these three making my day!

🥶 Winter the White Shepherd X was super confused. She is a couple of not nice incidents and was waiting for the next not nice incident.

⚠️ Except…The Fooligans Rock and Roll! Only good things happened!!!

🐘 Nellie…well…she acted like a little herder to start with. All nervous and fidgety. Then it all clicked. Helped by new boyfriend The Alfredo, Auntie Keeva Beaver and Dame Koda the Yodler 😂

🥳 Well done everyone for having awesome students that can see what the new kids need and act upon their needs!!!

🐌 Tiny Tuesday is shaping up great!

🤵‍♂️ Tux made friends and is really warming up now.

🛌 He no longer throws a tantrum about going to bed and doesn’t even shout at mum or dad at pick up time anymore. Just stoked to see them 🏆

🦊 Little Milly just started her Waist Deep program and we have many layers of the onion to unravel here. I’ve still got to work on her ability to prioritize fun over fear.

🧊 The ice will melt!

🧠 I used Ginnie to help role model what play looks like. Ginnie naturally hit dramatic level. Milly was astounded 😆

💗 The Alfredo and Keeva Beaver have been busy with their own friendship. Quite a cute couple.

🐻 Buzzy Bee, Silly Syd and Bear Grillie have been busy searching for meatballs and pushing balls over the fence! Scallywags.

🧠 Genius Ginnie and Freya Playa have done their best to whip everyone up into a frenzy.

🍭 Bonnie BonBon and Koda the Yodler have been keeping an eye on everyone as class prefects 🤪

✅ It’s a perfect start to the week!

🥂 ☄️ The Supernova has landed!

👧 This Girl has some issue that mean that mum has to put some special attention to things. And mum certainly rose to the heights she needed so that SuperNova can be free of her demons.

😤 The Supernova lived an angry and secluding life. Even Happy old me bore the brief brunt of her barking and lunging.

😃 By the end of our University program sue tended and inspected a cut that Bonnie BonNon gave me on my leg. (THIS GROOMING BEHAVIOUR IS OFFERED AS A SIGN OF SOCIAL ACCEPTANCE AND CARE!)

🍪 Supernova was able to listen, pay attention and offer behaviours to mum. Just look at the awesome Heel!!! No commands, just good old fashioned and enthusiastic social behaviours.

💃 Also check out the skills that mum puts on display, she’s a lead ninja now and knows when to use the lead to guide her student and when to let the lead be. She’s worked really hard on herself and it really shows!

🎥 In the initial exercise you can really see SuperNovas Rottweiler confirmation shining. The hips, neck and head carriage particularly. She’s such a strikingly good looking girl!

👍🏼 Make sure you give SuperNova and her amazing mum a like and an encouraging comment below 👇

🍷 🍇 Baccus started his Waist Deep program Today!

🐻 Bear Grillie is still unsaubre of how fast he is. Because he’s so nervous 😆

🧠 Genius Ginnie and Baccus had some great conversations today.

🐺 Koda the Yodler made sure that Baccus was online with the class atmosphere.

🏆 Glory Rory was super polite today! She never tried to steal someone else’s toy!

🐩 Appy Alfie was the head of the training class today! Totally next level!!!!

🌵 Prickly Bear let himself out of the cage a little more today. He even went to get cuddles with Bear Grillie and Koda the Yodler!!! Wonders never cease ✌️
