Trust this dog more than I trust 99.99999% of people. Using the spring pole together. #springpole #workout #hesthebest #apbt #americanpitbullterrier #americanpitbull
Yes, I taught Turbo to run up the ladder 😂❤️ #apbt #americanpitbullterrier #sodamnsmart #helivestowork #hesthebest #lookwhaticando
Number one reason I started using a spring pole was because if I struggle managing my time.. how would I find even more time to work my dog and make sure his physical needs were being met, too!? So… when I have a good setup… it allows me the ability to manage my time while meeting both of our needs. I haven’t figured out how to make more time in a day, but I have figured out how to make the best use of the time I have! ❤️ #springpole #workoutpartner #americanpitbullterrier #apbt #pitbull #pitty #bluedog #basementworkout #themoreihitthebagthemoreheworks #goodboy #gooddog
No fence, no collar, no leash… no problem 🫶🏼
When you want to RUN and mom is NOT understanding the assignment. You climb in the car and SHOW her what you want 😂😂😂.
Admittedly, I can hardly longboard… well I can ride one but not great by any means. But my best friend loves it. So… here we are. Practicing yet another thing to give my best friend… something he absolutely loves. If you’re struggling, spend time with your dog(s). They need you as much as you need them.
How do I train and reinforce Turbo’s off-leash/recall?
I play with my dog. I play unless he is not listening. If he stops listening, I stop playing. Expectations + praise/reward + corrections = manageable dog.
Addi working Turbo 🥰❤️ he’s so solid even a little girl can run him 🙃
Had a day yesterday. But had breakfast with one of my amazing friends who’s really more like a sister. Hung out with another incredible friend yesterday who also took the time to let me lean on em and we played with Remedy. Noticed her focus was incredible so this morning I tried out her spin while moving and building a heel. She’s a spicy little lady and I’m here for it.

Getting Remedy accustomed to a big part of what we use in our every day life.
Today I want to speak from my heart on a few topics. Topics that are so misunderstood. How labels and stereotypes impact us. Today, I also honor a life. A beautiful life. A beautiful life of a person with labels. Stereotypes. Someone I reached out and tried to help smash those labels. No different than the labels I smash with dogs and the breed I love. I want to talk about addiction. And before anyone who doesn’t personally know me goes in on me asking how I could speak on addiction… well… Hi, my name is Kacee and I am a recovering alcoholic and addict and today I am 11 years clean and sober. This video is everything to me because you take two things society labels, a pit bull and an addict. And you ask me what I see. Resilience, perseverance, love, strength, will, drive, desire. But most importantly, what do I see in both? Loyalty and love. Just because society labels you, doesn’t mean you have to be the label. Owning this breed taught me that. Being a recovering addict taught me that. You could absolutely be the best and someone will judge you, label you, blame you. It taught me to stop explaining myself. You can recover, you can be whatever you want to be. Believe in yourself and find the ones who believe in you. One day at a time, one minute at a time, one second at a time. Until we meet again, Beth!
Remedy also got to go kayaking for her first time on the Rifle River and did amazing! She is nothing short of incredible, already.
For those of you who are not on my friends list or know me personally, I’ve been on vacation and resuming services; 7/11-7/21. I’ll be resuming 8/1 with no interruptions after! We travel a lot during the summer months and really try to make the most of our time with our children and of course, our dogs. Enjoy this short video of Remedy from our camping trip!
Bad b!tCh alert 🔥🔥🔥
This is what a day looks like with us. Luci LOVES the spring pole and she hits it like a pro 💅🏼💅🏼💅🏼
We also have a mill, designed for dogs. It is self propelled and encourages the dog to run at their speed/pace and allows them to stop at any time. It is great for conditioning and also for getting the dog to ‘want’ to participate in the conditioning. I love showing people what their dogs can do! 😌😌😌
I’d have never known Jax dislikes water. Like… dislikes it a lot. A lot, a lot. So we’re encouraging the water with a bumper. It’s been awesome watching Lexi and Jax learn together. He’s also highly toy driven! Great job you guys!
Super proud of these two girls! Becky brought Luci by to discuss goals as a puppy about 9 months ago. We talked about training goals, how to manage an APBT pup and some of the typical issues that arise through maturity with the breed and how to manage them through maturity and ultimately through life together! When we first started meeting we talked about toy drive, how to relieve some of that drive and energy and how to work on exposure for things that are still new to Luci. Luci’s favorite toy is the flirt pole and her and her mom love using it together. Today, now that she is mature enough, we tried out the spring pole. I let Becky and Luci work together and figure it out. Luci is getting used to spending time here so that she can be boarded while her mom goes on vacation!
We also worked on water exposure, as Luci doesn’t care for it. By the end of the spring pole session… well, you’ll see in the next post 😀
STOP BEING KAREN’S 🙃🙃🙃
I had some comments regarding why I have Remedy on a lead in my video... and I wanted to address them. If you have a hard time understanding, ask a question… don’t assume. My dogs are on leads only if it is due to safety, the law OR training. My three dogs that are mature are completely capable of being totally off leash in both my yard or in a public setting and have solid recall. They wouldn’t have reached those capabilities if it wasn’t for what I did in the beginning of their lives and training.
When you slept all night in your boy’s bed alone and your boy comes home in the morning after staying the night at his best friends house 😂❤️❤️❤️
When Remedy had other plans 💀😂😂😂
