He loves watching her swim and getting splashed but he just won’t jump in there. It’s so disappointing for his human sister. I think it too closely resembles a baff 🛁
Dogs on a raw meat and bones diet don’t have the same 💩 as dogs eating kibbles. It smells much less and the output is significantly lower. As shown in this video, it also crumbles and goes away after a few days. It isn’t something that is difficult to pick up in your yard/ on walks bc it isn’t the consistency that sticks to grass! #rawfeddog #naturalrearing
He’s just chillin, waiting for his turn with the ball 🤣
How to crate train? Feed them their favorite meal in there, daily, with the crate command. Mine is ‘Go To Jail’. They hustle to their crates bc they know it’s time to eat! You also intermittently reinforce this command by giving treats when you have to kennel them when it is *not* meal time.
I clean crates daily, and those pads inside are called Primo Pads. Water proof crate pads 100000% recommend!
Boxers 🙃 #boxer #boxerdog
Throwback to Totoro the Baby Shark 🦈
Totoro with his Kong pacifier. Bc he’s still my baby ❤️❤️❤️ #boxer #boxerdog #kongdog #kongdogtoys
Yes, Boxers are family dogs. They adjust their play to be gentle with children and love the attention. ❤️ #boxerdog #boxer
He’s still just a giant baby. This Kong pacifier he’s had since he was an infant and it’s still one of his favorite things to carry around. #boxer #boxerbaby #kongdogtoys #Kong
Taking turns with the bone (Totoro got on it as I’m uploading this). They like to do this, I’m not sure why. One will chew and the other supervise. Then switch. If I give them both something at the same time, 99% of the time they will switch what they have many times throughout the chew session.
I made the dogs’ breakfast mush with a little bit of premade mix in there this time around. I’ve never used this one before but it seemed like a decent price for what I’m using it for (supplemental).
Turkey is the main protein this week. 4 lbs turkey chubs, 2 cans salmon (with skin and bones), 1 can green tripe. With the pre mix it was super easy today! I didn’t use any grains or additional veggies/fruits or oils today just what was in the pre mix. I used about 2 cups mix.
For those wondering yes they also eat whole meat & bones / organs. This is their breakfast mush.
Lunch in the kitchen today
They don’t usually get to eat their meat and bones in the kitchen so this was different. But I was chopping up their bird in the sink and she wanted hers *nowwwwww* and I did need an excuse to clean the floors, so 😅
He can sense being observed
Dog barking reactivity
This is a video showing how I train the dogs to associate hearing a reactive barking dog with a positive reward.
Dogs are waiting for the cookies. When the neighbor dog barks reactively (in this case at a lawnmower), they get a cookie. Repeat. It re wires the dogs’ brains to associate a reactive bark sound with a reward (and to come to me).
This can be trained with e collar using vibrate or beep. If the dog is at a distance from you (like at a fence line with a dog barking at them).
Use e collar to associate vibrate/beep with reward. Use the ecollar when they are being barked at away from you. They should recall. Auto recall without ecollar is the goal. Dog should be on long line to recall them to you if they do not recall. 😎
It’s hot, it’s late, and they are still going. Usually they’re ready for bed by now
