Birdie meets a new person! ✨
.
Birdie hasn’t been in training with me for long, but she did have some training in the past, which has proven to be very helpful in our work towards confidence! Because Birdie struggles with people in her space it’s been at the forefront of our training to counter condition people moving around around her, hence why Theo has a handful of treats and the game is almost exclusively just to neutrally follow them around. This is far from our ideal normal, however, and is just the first major step in getting Birdie to be comfortable with new folks in her home! Because we’ve made such great progress and we know she’s self-addressing her big feelings around new people we can start to incorporate obedience elements like leave it and place to help her control her body while she processes those big feelings. Great job, Birdie!! 💕

Retrievals are some of my absolute favorite tricks/tasks to train, they’re so involved and complex! Watching a dog’s brain work through each step and problem solve is one of the most satisfying experiences I have as a trainer. The end product is pretty nice, too…🤭

Oh yeah, we have a TikTok that I keep forgetting about! 🤣 same handle as on here!

Doing nothing! It’s one of my favorite skills to work on because it’s so simple but the payoff is so worth it. Most dogs have to be taught how to mellow out, you know this if you’ve ever spent more than 10 minutes with a puppy. 🤣 Zoey is a 6 month old doodle and the perfect example of a good dog with no frustration management skills or cafe manners. She listens to her sits, downs, shakes, etc on the first try, but if we’re not doing something she needs to find something to do herself, which usually involves inappropriate chewing, jumping, or barking. Rewarding her choosing calm behaviors sets the groundwork for proper self control later on!

Coming when called with Bear! Bear is a unique boy with a huge heart and a whole lot of personality. He’s pretty sure he’s half cat half human and I’ve never met a dog more fearless in my life. This video was taken last spring of our coming when called practice in the park! 💞
