Working on Noodles' posture 🐾💕👣
With a dog this size, I'm struggling to see all of him when he is in front of me. It's great to take a video to see what we can improve 🔥💪

Off lead walking, whilst keeping the arousal down, sniffing and checking in 👣💕🐾

A little update on Noodles for you.
The implant is definitely working. We're not at a level where I would comfortably take the lead off him but we're definitely going in the right direction.
Here is our walk in a new place. After initial excitement, he settled nicely and was able to walk with me happily. No frustration, no pulling, and no treats.

I can't believe this is the same dog I wrote about only a few weeks ago 😅 it's far from competition ready, but look at this ENGAGEMENT! He's pushing and going forward, at times not listening, but he's in it and having fun! No treats on me 🥳🥳🥳
I couldn't ask for more!

I'm so grateful for this dog 🫶
I haven't been training him much recently because I didn't enjoy it. His frustration was rubbing on me, and I wasn't able to find ways to get us going again.
My confidence also got knacked, and I'm slowly rebuilding it now whilst still recovering from a horrible cold 🤧
I pushed myself to try again, and I loved his attitude towards me. I'm so proud of myself for trying different techniques to keep my feelings at bay and therefore to be the person he wants to be with. 👣💕🐾
He's the best teacher I could wish for. Fun, kind, fair, and forgiving. What else could I ask from him? 🤷♀️🥰

If you know, you know how much work this needed!
I'm so so so proud and amazed how far we have come together. Here is our little rally practise this morning. Busy local park, lots of people of different sizes, dog walkers, runners, picnics, and ball games.
No food on me and the tail wag!!! In some sessions, I'm looking for precision, but in this one, I only wanted his to stay with me and give it a shot! 👣💞🐾 and he delivered 🥳😍

Learning that running away with toy doesn't pay off, but if he brings it back, the game continues 🥰
A little "out" practice too, to continue to build trust that I will give it back. This is something I'm repairing in our relationship 👣💞🐾

My son's dream of walking his dog is their reality now 🐾💞👣

Yesterday's morning started as a "disaster." I was rushing to get us out of the house, and after a 40-minute drive, I realised that I didn't put a lead in my car.
Normally, I have at least a spare long line, but I cleaned the car recently, and the line didn't make its way back yet.
I always have this litte "competition lead," though, so I had to use it as there was no way to pop back home. The lead is so thin that it can easily give me rope burns if Noodles pulls me. On top of this, it is not much longer than his body length! And normally we use 3 meters long one 😬
To say the least I was dreading it!🥵
Noodles surprised me yet again. He was totally cool about it. I got him out of the car, let him acclimatise and off we went 👣💞🐾

Noodles is always full of silliness 🤣🥰
He makes me laugh so much! We learn to enjoy more play, and things sometimes go a bit 🤭🫣😍

Noodles and horses!
My boy decided to take a rest on one of our morning walks, and the impromptu training session happened 🥰
The horses live and work on the farm where we stayed. They are used to dogs. The baby was only a couple of weeks old 😍
Pure joy to sit and watch them together 👣💞🐾

Such a polity boy 🥰
