I have some very exciting news! I've taken @tayy_capone on as a mentee. He's brilliant with the dogs and will be coming with me to some sessions to learn as much about being a dog trainer as he can. He's also handled my dog Eyre for reactive dog clients, and has helped out during my community pets classes in the Bronx. Keep an eye out for him, I expect great things!!

So proud of little Jill! Her brother Jack was the trick dog in the family historically, but we found Jill really loves to get in on the fun too! It's also really helped her confidence in other parts of her life. You go girl! And remember, when you're training, #letthemeattreats!

How sure are you that your dog knows what you're asking of her? And if she does know what you're asking, how does she feel about that cue in particular?
I never formally taught Prynne "come" and informally used it for things she didn't always want to do. If I wasn't sensitive to this and didn't know better, I might say that she's being stubborn, trying to dominate me, being spiteful, etc when she doesn't come. But then look how beautifully she responded to her "touch" cue, which is heavily reinforced and she loves to do very much! So it was never about defying me or not wanting to come near me, it was all about how and what I asked her!
Make sure you know what you're asking your dog to do, and how they feel about it!

How's your dog handling this storm? Prynne's resting after getting her dose of sileo. Otherwise she'd be a panting, shaking mess in the corner. She doesn't get "high" like she does on other meds, it mostly just makes her tired. It's made such a big difference for us, for thunderstorms, fireworks, and other big scary experiences. If your dog is really noise sensitive, it's worth asking your vet about it.

Allie is too cute, it can be hard to focus around her! She was having a really hard time learning down, luring wasn't working for her, and even shaping was taking longer than usual. The only spot in the apartment she'd regularly lie down was on the arm of the sofa, so we brought training up there, and guess what? It worked! One of my favorite things about dog training is the chance to be creative and make things work for the dog you're working with. It shouldn't be cookie cutter programs with no wiggle room. Let's have fun!

Willow the #americanbully gets super excited when her people come home which sometimes spills over into aggressive redirection to one of her housemates, Dakota the #canecorso. Here Willow's learning how to go to her place on the couch which we'll fold into her greeting routine to help diffuse the tension. Her people are doing a stellar job, and have picked up the training as quickly as Willow has! We're learning about stimulus control, adding cues, and increasing criteria.
I've introduced a few lifestyle changes to help, and they've gone from having a few incidents every day to only 2 in the past two weeks! Great progress if you ask me! Willow and Dakota are also working on some leash reactivity to people, stray cats, and dogs, and both girls rocked their sessions today.

Major brag for Bear today! When we first met, Bear had a hard time focusing enough to even eat treats from across the apartment from me. Today, in our third session together, he showed remarkable control of himself, and is so relaxed! Way to go Team Bear!!!

Jordan again! He's a 4 year old Shih Tzu/Yorkie looking for his new forever home (he's the brown one in the video). Jordan is super smart, very cuddly (sleeps on your pillow right by your head at night!), and a very sweet, calm boy who'll be happy to sit with you and get rubs all day. He can resource guard high value items, which is well managed with training, he's great at trading for treats, but should go to a home with no children. Please share him! He's located in Astoria, NY and looking for his perfect someone to share all his loving with!

This is some impressive husbandry training with Remy. She initially was very skeptical about handling in general, and after she needed some ear drops, got even more hesitant. Her owners put a lot of work in to get here and I'm so proud of their progress!

Knowing when to mark a dachshund for sit and down can be a tad tricky!

I have a really fun set of brag videos to share from Remy the dachshund and her family! Remy is only 5 months old, and was a very timid puppy, I'm super proud of all their hard work!
In this video Remy's showing off coming when called. She used to play keep away!

Prynne made some art today! What are some fun DIY enrichment things you like to do with your dog?

The dogs talked me into having some snow day fun! Little brag, that recall was off a bunch of cat food that Eyre had previously eaten. Good job little dog!
