Dog training dog. A little socialization can help dogs learn their own language. #dogtraining #Arkansas #freedomscallingcanine #PuppyJump
You know the best part of training dogs with positive reinforcement and food or toys as a reward? Mistakes made on the human side of training aren’t going to have a lasting effect on the dog. Other methods of training could have a lasting effect, even if used once.
This is Barley still learning to lay down without giving a wave every time. The wave went away with just a small tweak to technique.
Dogs are never to young or too old to learn.
Freedom’s Calling, will you answer?
Last and certainly not least, Barley. Our foster fail is a 4 year old Miniature Australian Shepherd. She’s had a rough start to life. Had to get a tumor removed from her eye and suffers from a condition that prevents her from making tears. We have to apply drops and ointment several times a day to both eyes.
Barley is just now on her training journey since we got her in October. Her eye issues cause an unknown amount of vision loss so I’ve adjusted training techniques to ensure her acquisition and continued success.
Barley loves snuggling, licking faces and sleeping behind the couch. She’s still figuring out how to play with toys and be a dog. Every week she figures out how to be a happier and mentally healthier dog.
Rescue dogs with special medical needs are a little more work. With the help of a good veterinarian, a good trainer and a loving home; anything is possible for these pups.
