Such a cold morning!! Luckily most of these guys are happy to relax inside today lol 🐾🐾
With the cold it’s super important to watch your dogs feet! If they start raising up paws it’s time to go inside.
Dogs like MJ the German shepherd are just build different and you’ll never see him irritated with his feet in the snow but the others will start picking up feet, licking snow off the bottom which signals they are cold!
An early morning chase with Star, Mocha and Winston.
I LOVEEE watching dogs think and make their own good decisions!
Her impulse control is getting soooo much better! Some dogs it just takes time and Trixie has been here almost 4 weeks.
Chaos
Chaos is working on calmness around craziness. She has a lot of herding drive and so when animals move she wants to nip and bite and chase. She has a really hard time with the dogs in the yard running around. So we are asking her to just lay down and watch not react. Any engagement with me I will reward with treats or praise.
Chaos and Trixie
It’s been gorgeous fall weather this week for working dogs! ❤️ Chaos and Trixie are doing great with their work 🙌
Putter has spent the last 10 days learning to recall with the e collar.
Putter has a history of running off, ignoring his owners and playing “keep away from Putter”
We’ve always been told he’s a flight risk when he’s come to board with us.
With clear communication and understanding (and lots and lots of practice!) today we were able to drop his short leash for our session! 👏👏
Putter goes home today and I’m so excited to see how he does at home with this new reliable form of communication ❤️
