Training and practice pays off! I often receive updates from my clients whilst they are away on holidays and I'm buzzing that Padme and Leia did so well in this busy environment! Ferry trips can be crazy - there are dogs and people everywhere, kids running, movement of the ship etc. Thank you for such an awesome update, I'm so pleased training has transferred over to real life...that is what it's all about!๐ #NeroDogTraining #AmsterdamDogTraining #TrainDontComplain

Beanie's first stooge session! This sweet Spaniel is an eager beaver when it comes to dog and human greetings. With a history of constant leash pulling, it was becoming quite the chore to walk Beanie. After a few weeks of practice and introducing new concepts, we decided to have our next training in the form of a stooge session. This is where I call other Nero Network members to aid our learning and everyone gets the opportunity to practice with other dogs. Rehearse before real life, drills before skills and all that Jazz. Big thanks to Shiva, Moos and Padme for lending a paw. We've still got plenty of proofing to do but my oh my, how far Beanie has come! Well done, little lion!๐ฆ

Always appreciate a reactivity update! These guys have been such a delight to work with and are a shining example of what is possible if you are willing to change your own habits..."We have noticed such huge changes in him recently - heโs like a different dog! Walks used to be so stressful and now he walks loose lead, and even walks well off lead (Iโve put in a couple of videos for you), is much better with other dogs and we can even take him to cafes - and all your advice has helped so much with this. Weโre moving back home soon and weโre feeling so much more confident about it because of how much better behaved he is, and we owe so much of it to you! Thank you!" ๐ฅณ๐ฅฐ๐

A very wet stooge session for Shushi! We're combining some parkour principles with our drive by dog exercise. Thank you to my members of The Nero Network for showing up and lending a paw.๐

Part one of the new Gun Dog Workshop was a success! With a variety breeds (a King Charles Spaniel, Cobberdog, Malinois, Flatcoat, Labradoodle and two young Labradors) we worked our way through chaining a retrieve, introduced real game, proofing a hold, heeling with distractions and scent tracking! Big thank you to Sanne from Cloud Canine for guiding us through the process and sharing her knowledge. We're all looking forward to part two in a few weeks!๐๐ฅณ

Life skills: advanced class! Polly's "go round" is so smooth that we've decided to introduce a left and right send away. Well done guys, you always exceed expectations!๐

What'SUP dog?! So proud of my boy getting on my board for the first time with zero hesitations. If you have trust, you can do anything! Here's to our maiden voyage buddy, we totally rocked (or didn't rock) the "boat!"๐๐โโ๏ธ
Note: this was the only time I was brave enough to get my phone out. We stayed on the water just a short while as I wanted to be sure our first experience ended on a positive. Trust me when I say that when a dog of this size moves (even just shifting his weight from one hip to the other) you NEED good balance to stay steady. I'm so proud of us both. Neither of us fell and Ky wanted to get straight back on when we reached the edge. Winning!๐

Here's Haruki, "flying" around the trees in Italy! Love it when my Nero folk send me videos of them practicing in new environments. Nice work Riccardo - yet another client who consistantly drills their skills. See you when you're back in town.โบ๏ธ @riccardoblacks

Nero's heroes! This trio never fail to impress. I've been training with Hester since both her dogs were young pups and I cannot fault her dedication to the game of train!โญ๏ธ
A double heel with assigned sides? Not a problem. How about a double down in motion? Sure thing! We recently strated training this in our life skills: advanced class and naturally, Alfie and Polly are smashing it. Thank you for being so awesome, I appreciate your love of nuances and building behaviour.๐

Training tip: walking your dog doesn't have to be about covering as much distance as possible. It's just as useful to train out on your street and neighbouring streets to slow down the mind and build relevance in a familiar environment. If your dog is struggling to engage when outdoors, practice at home then in the garden and then on the pavement outside your front door. You'll see how much easier things come together.๐

The "emergency stop" is a skill that every urban dog needs. I love receiving videos from past #lifeskillsclass clients who have fine-tuned their training to reach the complete behaviour. Well done Nell, you're a star! ๐

This is SO cute! We introduced "copy me" training during our tune up training class last weekend. This concept revolves around social learning and our dogs imititating a behaviour. Great job, Mochi!โบ๏ธ๐คฃ @mochi_explores

Little Nala made so much progress in just one session today! From screaming banshee to silent passenger, we worked her through her anxiety and I certainly got my steps in!๐

There are SO many layers to training a dog.๐
Matilda has been wary of her harness and general husbandry care since a young age due to many medical procedures. We've been busy building our communication by making use of a keep going marker and nose target and adding the harness in as a distraction. Our reward placement is AWAY from the harness so Matilda can return for another round (creating a new memory) and reduce any hesitations.๐
You can see she is cautious but by keeping our sessions short, sweet and random, we are changing how she views this piece of equipment. Well done guys, this video is on point.๐ฅณ
