Playing sounds to dogs can make sense in various contexts. Here are a few scenarios where it can be beneficial:
Training:
Sound cues are often used in training, such as clickers, whistles, or specific verbal commands. Dogs can learn to associate these sounds with certain behaviors or actions.
Desensitization:
Playing sounds that might typically cause anxiety, such as thunder or fireworks, at a low volume can help desensitize a dog to these noises over time. This can be particularly helpful for dogs with noise phobias.
Entertainment:
Some dogs enjoy listening to music or nature sounds, which can provide mental stimulation and relaxation, especially when they are alone.
Alerting:
Certain sounds can be used to alert a dog, such as a doorbell sound or the sound of their name being called.
However, it's important to observe how your dog reacts to different sounds, as some may find certain noises stressful or unpleasant.
Lets talk about a topic that's close to my heart building confidence in general, using Strudel who's a bit timid as an example. You know, dogs are just like us. They have their own unique personalities, and sometimes, they can be a bit timid. But that's okay!
Just like us, they can learn to be more confident with a little bit of love, care, and patience.
Here a few games I'm playing to build their #confidence

Lets talk about an exciting topic:
baby #foundation #agility training
Did you know that you can start #teaching the basics to your little ones as early as 2-3 months of age?
That's right!
Now, I'm not talking about training them to be professional #athletes or acrobats. I'm referring to simple, fun exercises that can help your baby develop their physical and cognitive skills.
For example, you can encourage your baby to roll over, sit up, and even crawl. These activities not only help your baby's body get stronger but also promote their brain development.
So, let's get started on this fun and rewarding journey with our little ones! Remember, it's all about having fun and making learning a positive experience.
Keep playing with your little ones!

LONG LEASH / LINE / LEAD
You know, when it comes to training our furry friends, it's crucial to use a long line to ensure their safety and well-being.
A long line provides a sense of security for both you and your pup, allowing them to explore their surroundings while staying close to you. It also helps to prevent accidents, such as running into the street or getting lost.
Plus, using a long line can help you monitor your puppy's behavior and provide immediate correction if needed. It's a great tool for teaching your pup good manners and obedience.
So, next time you're out with your puppy, remember to use a long line for their safety and your peace of mind.

Today, we're going to talk about a crucial aspect of dog training:
IMPULSE CONTROL
You see, dogs, like humans, can sometimes be a bit impulsive. They might act on their instincts without thinking about the consequences. This can lead to all sorts of problems, from jumping on people to chewing on furniture.
But fear not, because impulse control is a skill that can be taught and developed. By using positive reinforcement, patience, and consistency, you can help your furry friend learn to control their impulses.
This not only benefits your dog but also helps to create a harmonious environment for everyone involved.
So, let's all work together to give our dogs the best chance at success by teaching them the importance of impulse control

Puppy lovers!
I like to talk about the importance of a puppy playpen and why it's a great idea to put in toys, a water bowl, chew treats, a bed, a rug, a crinkle toy, and more
Puppy playpens are a fantastic way to provide a safe and enclosed space for your furry friend to play, explore, and learn.
By putting in toys, you're not only keeping your puppy entertained but also helping them develop their cognitive and motor skills.
A water bowl is essential for keeping your puppy hydrated, while chew treats can be a great reward for good behavior or a way to soothe teething pups.
A cozy bed is a must-have for your puppy's rest time, and a rug crinkle toy can be a fun and interactive toy for your pup to play with.
Remember, a well set-up playpen can help your puppy grow and develop into a happy, healthy, and well-behaved dog

Training your dog to have excellent impulse control, especially in the presence of wildlife like kangaroos, is an impressive feat. Here's how you can train it
Training my dogs to control their impulses, particularly to avoid chasing animals, involved a series of structured and consistent exercises.
One of the critical commands they learned was an instant "drop," followed by finding a position behind me, which proved invaluable when a kangaroo appeared unexpectedly.
4 Steps to Train Impulse Control and the "Drop" Command
1. Foundation Training:
👉 Basic Commands:
Start with basic obedience commands such as sit, stay, and come. These commands form the foundation for more complex behaviours
👉 Impulse Control Games: Engage in games that teach patience, like waiting for a treat or a toy until given a release command.
2. Introducing the "Drop" Command:
👉 Gradual Introduction:
Begin in a controlled environment with minimal distractions. Use a consistent command such as "drop" or "down," paired with a hand signal.
👉Positive Reinforcement: Reward your dog immediately with treats and praise when they comply with the command. Consistency is key
3. Desensitization to Wildlife:
👉Controlled Exposure: Gradually expose your dogs to wildlife in a controlled manner, starting with a safe distance. Use leashes and ensure you can control the situation.
👉 Reinforce Commands: Practice the "drop" command during these exposures, rewarding your dogs for their compliance.
4. Teaching the Behind Position:
👉 Clear Signals: Use a distinct command such as "behind" or "back" paired with a guiding motion. Practice this in low-distraction environments before increasing the challenge
👉 Consistency and Rewards: Consistently practice this command during walks and hikes, rewarding your dogs for taking the position behind you
This training required patience, consistency, and lots of positive reinforcement, but the results were well worth the effort. My dogs now e
Found this horse jump on our bush walk and decided to make it a fun exercise for the dogs

Teach an old dog new trick ?
Absolutely!
While the saying "you can't teach an old dog new tricks" suggests resistance to change, it's not entirely accurate. Dogs, like humans, can learn new things at any age with patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. It might take a bit more time and effort, but it's definitely possible!

Teaching a dog to stay in the front position during training involves positive reinforcement and patience.
Here's what we do with a puppy in the 1st session. The platform helps them understand how to hold the position.
Start by luring the dog into the front position with a treat, then gradually fade the lure and reinforce the behaviour with praise and treats, will be step two.
Practice in short sessions, gradually increasing duration and adding distractions. Consistency and positive reinforcement are key!

An animal actors trick workshop for movies and TV would focus on training animals to perform specific behaviors and actions on cue, ensuring their safety and comfort on set, and integrating them seamlessly into scenes.
Here's an outline of what such a workshop might cover:
1. Basic Training Techniques: Teaching participants the principles of positive reinforcement training, shaping behaviors, and using clicker training to communicate with animals effectively.
2. Obedience and Control: Training animals to respond reliably to basic commands such as sit, stay, come, and heel, as well as more advanced commands specific to the requirements of film and TV productions.
3. Trick Training:
Demonstrating how to teach animals a variety of tricks and behaviors that can be incorporated into scenes, such as playing dead, retrieving objects, shaking hands, or riding in vehicles

Training junior dogs using positive reinforcement is highly effective and encourages good behavior by rewarding desired actions with treats, praise, or playtime
It helps build a strong bond between you and your dog while teaching them essential skills and manners. Remember to be patient, consistent, and use plenty of encouragement to reinforce positive behaviors
