⚫️Hamilton the gorgeous Dalmation is next on the list this week.
⚪️Hamilton has had a few not so nice run ins with dogs in the past rushing him on lead, so understandably he has developed some leash reactivity.
⚫️Today we worked on his walking skills so he doesn’t pull on the leash, which he aced and then he had a test when walking past barking dogs.
⚪️Where he would usually pull, bark and generally freak out, today he was able to walk past with his handler without displaying the big feelings.
⚫️I’m the coming weeks, he will learn how to relax a lot more.
⚪️He and his handler did so well for their first lesson today.
I will see you next week Hamilton 🐾
Holidays are over and it’s back to training!
I will be reaching out to those who have contacted me today.
To book in or enquire about getting some training for you and your pup, please contact me through Facebook Messenger or message/ call me on 0403772278.
Today’s new client is the beautiful Coco. Here she is learning to let her owner walk into the yard without being swamped! I look forward to our coming lessons and opening the pathways of communication between dog and owner 💜
The face of the goodest boy!
Hulk did such a good job today with his reactivity training. 🐾💪 He was able to disengage by himself. Such a change from our last lesson.
Chessie learning to go on her mat. She is such an enthusiastic pup with an over abundance of cuteness!
This may not look like much, however Tilly was a reactive dog. She would lunge and bark.
Here she is today walking on a long line without restraint, meandering around next to Buck without paying him any attention.
What a good girl 💜🐾
Flexi
Flexi leads are a great tool for giving our dogs a little freedom on their walks.
It is important our dogs understand the cue to come back to heal for instances like walking past other people or dogs.
Always be respectful of others around us when we are using a flexi!
Vander and Omari
Look at these awesome boys from Studio Groomed!
Vander did so well with his lesson so we were able to get Omari out as a distraction.
I highly recommend Stef and her team at Studio Groomed for all your grooming needs. These girls are not only great groomers, they are in it for the dogs.
Bambi!
Mel and Bambi training the Recall Cue.
Recall is one of the most important cues your dog will ever learn.
Train with a long line so your dog learns that whenever you say ‘come’ they have to return to you.
If they choose to ignore you, you have a way of encouraging them back.
