Hey Brainy friends! Below is a little behind the scenes of me working with my dog! Enjoy!
Indie lives with two little snack monsters that love to wave their snacks in the air (like they just don't care) π
Though she isn't always perfect, we have been working on counter conditioning her natural response to snacks being waved around in her face!
π£Finn has chosen a winner for our photo contest! The treat he chose was π₯ Deelee West Congrats! π
PSA: I am booking extremely quickly this time of year! I apologize for wait times, but as a one woman show, I can only stretch myself so thin. I value each and every client and appreciate your patience!
Stay warm today and keep those pups busy!! We have been doing lick mats, puzzle games, extra training and our dogs personal favorite frozen stuffed toys!!
Finn and myself out doing some WORK! (Looks more like FUN to me)
Doing engagement work at a local park with our long line. How engaged is your dog at the park or even on a walk? Is this a goal of yours? Does your dog to listen or notice when you move in a different direction?
These simple engagement exercises can make a tremendous difference if your dog is reactive, leash pulling, having difficulties with recall, anxious or shy and the list goes on.
It's been awhile and a new refrigerator style made this more challenging (taking from the freezer because the fridge is on top) but my boy can still do my favorite party trick! Anything is possible with time, patience and training!
Finn for the win!
My boy Finn demonstrating some simple skills that can be taught using positive reinforcement! What a good boy!
