Tucker’s go home session
Tucker goes home!
Technology is so helpful sometimes! I used my Apple Watch for the camera remote to keep and eye on Elanor while we were training out of sight bed stays. Do you have any clever tricks for training? We also use the mirrors in our training room a ton! Happy training everyone!
All dogs can learn to hunt, this is real enrichment.
Use your dog’s natural instinct to access the best “enrichment” possible! In this video Day Schooler, Kai the #germanshepherd plays the “Stay” and “Go find it” game. To begin teaching your dog to develop “hunt drive” for food or a toy, it's important to first choose a high-value reward that your dog finds extremely motivating. This could be a special treat that they only receive during training sessions, or a favorite toy that they love to play with. Start by showing the reward to your dog and allowing them to sniff it or play with it for a moment to pique their interest. Then, hide the reward in a nearby location where your dog can easily find it. If needed you can have your dog in a crate or held by a friend while you hide it. Encourage your dog to search for the reward by using a cue word such as "find it" or "search." But do not hover over, repeat or show them where it is. Let them do the work. When your dog successfully locates the reward, praise them enthusiastically and reward them with the treat or toy. Repeat this process several times to help your dog associate the hunt with a positive outcome, and gradually increase the difficulty of the hiding spots to challenge their hunting skills. With consistent practice and patience, your dog will soon develop a strong hunt/search drive for food or toys, and it’s the perfect rainy day activity. #gsd #germanshepherd #noseworkdog

Cheddy had his first happy visit today at PetVet365 Louisville/Blankenbaker ! We’ve got some work to do so that he will trust a new person, but this is what step one looks like teaching him to accept restraint.
Learning to be patient for grooming is a huge life skill dogs need to understand. Luba here practiced her best behavior while getting groomed.
