If you haven’t feed your dog yet, when you do, make them work for it.

If you’re new to training, work on your dog sitting calmly as you feed them one piece at a time. Go no more than two minutes then end your session.

You got this!

Young puppies don’t get clarity from the words you say. Trained dogs would get clarity.

Your young puppy gets clarity from your actions. Some actions are more useful than others.

1. What your leash and collar are doing.
2. What your body language is doing.
3. What you’re doing with their food.
4. What you’re doing with their toys.

Learn how to use those, then your words will mean so much more.

If you own a power breed like Remi the Rottweiler, you must train yourself and your dog.

If you don’t train, before you know it, they could be physically out of control and have so many bad habits that it would be challenging.

On the flip side, if you get started early, like eight weeks old, imagine the type of relationship that you could have with your dog. It’s possible that it could be the best dog you have ever had.

So Kreed and I went back to Tractor Supply today.

Yesterday, I noticed Kreed was barking much more at other dogs than what is appropriate. I knew that he would need reinforcements for being calm and quiet.

And that is just what we did. He struggled initially, but within a few minutes, he was understanding that calmness was the main focus.

By the end of the session, he was calm, happy, and attentive.

He’ll be back again in a few days, and once he's consistently calm, we'll move on to another location.

Many of you who train with me know how much I emphasize good timing. So, I am sharing one of the timing tips I teach when you're working on your dog's recall. This tip can be used by anyone looking to improve their dog's recall.

So there are four different things to consider here:
1. Your voice command
2. Whether your dog can see you or not
3. The pressure and release of your leash and collar
4. Your body language

So there are two possibilities that I would consider very beneficial.

Here is the first one.

While your dog is facing away from you, put slight pressure on the leash. Next, call your dog and begin to use backward body language. Now, when your dog has turned around, continue to walk backward at least three steps and simultaneously relieve all pressure from your leash. Finally, when your dog gets to you, reward them appropriately.

Now, I said that there were two possibilities. So, the next one would reverse the order of the voice command when you start the leash guidance. In the second variation, there is a slight delay between the voice command and the start of the leash cue.

This is intentional.

I recommend using this because the gap between verbal cues and leash guidance allows your dog to come without needing the leash to respond.

Get good at this.

If this tip was helpful, tag a family member and practice when you get home tonight.

If you trained your dog today, Well done! If you haven’t, there’s still a few hours left. It can be as short as 2 minutes.

Your leash isn’t just for walking your dog outside. Using your leash while you're inside can help you learn how to use it more gently and effectively. Pair it with food training and watch what happens next!

This is Loki. Loki’s loving family lives in a very dog-friendly apartment complex. They contacted me because they were struggling with random acts of reactivity towards other dogs.

After coaching Loki’s owners through some basic obedience drills, we are now working together to reduce, manage, and ultimately eliminate these issues.

I'm happy to say that we have seen a significant improvement, and I’m very proud of the work my clients are putting in.

🌴Training in public🌴

Today was Potter's first session in a public place. His owner has trained in their home and neighborhood, but now was a good time to push forward.

When I do these sessions, I remind my clients not to expect too much from their dogs initially.

So here is the game plan we executed today.

1. Wait for the dog to get over the novelty of the new environment. Follow this by rewarding the dog for engaging.
2. Have the dog follow on a loose leash and not allow them to pull ahead 1 step.
3. Continue to move around the environment and look for opportunities to practice what the dog has already been shown.

These steps don’t need to be followed precisely. In addition to this, be ready to give the dog a break from the mental work.

Last point: if you and your dog are struggling, get out of there and get more reps of your basic skills, then head back on another day.

Jericho was released from the hospital last night and is home!

He was thrilled to see me and was very happy to be able to walk around his home. The medications he is on have restored his ability to walk. I will still need to manage him significantly in the weeks to come to help him recover.

There are many challenges for him in the near future, but I will do everything I can to give him the best life possible.

Among those challenges is how he will need to eat. He must eat and drink upright and maintain that for 15 to 20 minutes post-meal.

He could use the help of a Bailey chair to eat. I have ordered one for him, but it will take two weeks to arrive. If you know of someone who has one that would let him borrow/rent while his arrives, please message me.

We continue to ask for your prayers and positive thoughts for us.

Thank you all for your support. It means the world to me!

I am now eight weeks into raising Kreed, and potty training is among the skills I wanted to teach him.

I have used various ways to potty train my other dogs, but I believe I have found a way that works very well.

So, I used two crates and a dog run.

Let me start with how I used the two crates.

One of the two crates is tiny. At 15 weeks old, Kreed is barely able to fit in it. At eight weeks old, he had a little more room, but not much. This is the crate that I would use every time I finished a training session.

You see, at the end of each training session, where I worked with Kreed for his meal, I knew the small crate would inhibit his desire to potty. Who wants to soil themselves? When he was in there, I would monitor him closely to see if he needed to go. It didn't take me long to learn his particular cues of when he needed to go.

Now, when I thought he needed to go, I wouldn’t let him roam around my backyard. Not at all. Most of the time, I would either gather him up or walk him on a leash and put him in a dog run. I’d give him about 5 minutes to go.

if you don’t have a dog run, use your leash and get specific where you want your dog to go. This right here makes the process go so much faster when you pick a specific spot.

If Kreed did not go, he would return to the small kennel, and I would start monitoring him again.

Now, if he did go, this is where I would do one of two things. Option one would be to put him into the giant crate. Option two would be to give him some freedom but to always have my eyes on him. Let me repeat that. I would never leave him unattended at all. If I did, I would immediately manage him with the larger crate.

Now, we did have some accidents, but they were few and far between.

At this point, I can now leave him out of the crates but under my supervision, and he will walk over to the back door to let me know he wants out.

When you have had a dog that's pulled you on a leash for years, it can be challenging knowing if you are ever going to be able to walk them where they are actually under control.

You have heard me say how this skill is difficult to get right and that clarifying your stance here is essential if your walks are ever going to be delightful. As big of a job as it is, you can eat this elephant one tiny drill each day until it transforms into what you want.

I’ve personally tackled this problem by going for walks that look more like a dance. That means I’m just going back and forth, sometimes in my driveway, sometimes right in front of my home, as I show the dog how I will lead.

I’ve noticed, and many of you who have trained with me probably have, too, that as soon as you break the walk down this way, it starts to get better and better.

Once you start practicing like this and you get the timing on the reinforcement right, you're going to see a change.

So what can you do if you’re struggling with how your dog walks you when on leash? Grab your leash right now. Put that sucker on your dog, and then see if you can get your dog to follow you without you saying any voice commands while in your home.

If you need some help, let me show you how professional training makes a world of difference.

In this clip, you are watching me put a couple of puzzle pieces together for Alpha and me. I want her to stay focused on me when we are heeling, move quickly away when I send her, come around the cone, come back rapidly, and sit in front straight and close.

Overall, I’m delighted with what I see here, but like always, there is an opportunity for an even better performance.

Yes, I’d like it to be perfect, but just the process of being with Alpha and working with her has always been enough.

Getting a new puppy is such an exciting time. You have this new family member that you have so much hope for. You heard, and maybe you even know, that adding a dog will improve your family. You also may know that raising puppies is sometimes more challenging than dealing with a two-year-old! You’ll have to deal with potty training, nipping, barking, getting up in the middle of the night, and so on. It can be a big challenge!

So, how can you make it easier for yourself and your new puppy? First, take a breath, and it will turn out ok. Second, Make a plan to keep it simple for yourself. Here are three things that I lean into heavily when I start raising a new pup.

1. Have a training plan. Start working on having your puppy learn some functional boundaries, like the place to start, and also teach that your voice leads to the rewards!
2. Have a small crate that is about the size of your dog. Put your puppy in there for twenty to thirty minutes after they eat or drink. This will help you get potty training right.
3. Have a playpen or large crate. This one has been beneficial for me. I put the puppy in there anytime I have too much going on and want them to keep themselves entertained. I like to keep plenty of toys in there, and I just let them be a puppy. I just don’t put them in here when i havent seen them potty outside.

So I hope these things help you with your puppy.

Do you have anything valuable you would want to add to the list?

Kreed, Cones, and Crate

In this session with Kreed, I mainly was free-shaping two behaviors: going around the cone and loading into his crate.

Free shaping is when the trainer gives the dog little to no clues about what will earn a reward. There are no voice commands, no baiting and luring, no body language cues, and no leash guidance.

Free shaping gives the dog the freedom to discover what works. In doing so, the behaviors, which are the trainer's idea, become the dog's idea from their point of view. They are pushing the trainer to reward them with their choices.

This training requires a lot of patience. It’s also best practiced with a conditioned terminal marker, like the clicker you hear in this video.

Overall, I’m pleased with Kreed’s effort and how he worked through the scenario.

01/22/2024

Protection Work Assessment

Yesterday, Kreed and I had the opportunity to work with a protection decoy. I aimed to evaluate Kreed’s potential for bite work while ensuring he was having a blast.

In this clip, you can see a drill where we are building a tiny bit of frustration for the leather rag before Kreed is released to play. One of the goals is to develop some early barking behaviors and a love for chasing.

He also had the opportunity to do some play fighting with the decoy and showed excellent stable nerves.

While we didn’t get an actual bark, Kreed showed some drive and good nerves and will be considered for more development here.

Group Class Announcement

I will host a five-week basic obedience course starting Saturday, February 17th. Classes will be at Crosby Park, 409 Hare Road, Crosby, TX 77532. The start time will be 10:30 am and last one hour.

The cost is $250
You and your dog must have already completed at least a 4 week obedience course with me.

I took Kreed out to run chores with me this morning. He was a hit everywhere we went. People just loved his fluffy coat and, of course, how well-behaved he was. This training is necessary for those dogs that will go into sports homes and possibly even some K9 work.

We hit Sport Clips Haircuts of Atascocita (Humble, TX), the AT&T store, Pet Ranch Inc., Kingwood Town Center Park, and WhiteWater Express Carwash. I appreciate those business owners and managers for allowing us to come inside to socialize and train.

Here is a tiny clip of us practicing some at the park. The heeling and downstay are making progress.

01/19/2024

Training Kreed has been a wonderful experience for me. It’s been a ton of fun having a puppy in my home. Yes, I’m waking up in the middle of the night to take him out, but it’s been worthwhile.

As I set out on this training endeavor with him, one of my missions is to instill a love for training into him. I’ll admit, he’s made it easy for me.

I tell you all this because, as many of you know, dog training is a high-repetition undertaking. Many of the drills we do are very similar. Yes, there is nuance, and I’m thankful for that, but for those who want a highly trained dog, we will reinforce certain things an extraordinary amount.

Kreed’s foundation is highly rewarding. I’ve worked him for almost every piece of kibble since he arrived. By choosing to work him this way, he’s going to have a tremendous upside for the work that he’s going to be asked to perform as an adult.

I’d encourage those of you who want a highly trained dog to consider getting a ridiculously high repetition count for consecutive weeks for the behaviors you want your dog to perform when they are adults.

My experience tells me that making this sacrifice won’t leave you disappointed.

I wish you all the very best in training!
