Birdie and Higgins have been working very hard at overcoming their apprehension of the car. So far they’ve had good success with learning to get in the car independently, which will go a long way to changing their perspective on cars and car rides as a whole
Skky shows off some of the skills she’s learned this week!
Birdie is doing awesome with her commands even when we try them out with the 15 foot longline

Birdie and Higgins have been doing a great job with their loose leash walk individually, so today they practice walking together.

Meet Skky! This little lady just loves to GO - so we start to work on her loose leash walking by rewarding her every time she chooses to take tension off the leash and come back to me
Cleo works on her loose leash walk outside ☀️ even though there’s more space and various natural distractions, she does a great job staying by me and rarely putting tension on the leash
Birdie and Higgins are learning how to respect doorway boundaries: they sit when we approach and wait for my “break” before exiting
Birdie and Higgins work on their manners around the water bowl. I want them to wait for me to set the bowl down to start drinking and be able to stop drinking when I tell them “enough”.
Cleo practices her loose leash walk and is looking a lot more relaxed and confident being outside of the crate 😌
Cleopatra is a 1.5 year old Shepard mix here to get training for anxious and attention-seeking behaviors. This little lady was a bit nervous for her first day so we started off easy with some relationship building where she gets to earn lots of rewards and praise 🤗
Siblings Birdie and Higgins are in the house!! These bernedoodle babies are here to get on the right track with learning the obedience and socialization skills they’ll need as they grow

Duke does “down” with distractions!
Duke field trips to hobby lobby and gets tested in a big way…check out how he does!
