Earlier this week I spent some extra time with my youngest dog working on his recall. I reward behavior I want to see and correct the ones I don’t! Lots of repetition, lots of praise when a desirable behavior is displayed 😊
Harlow
For an anxious pup like Harlow, simple being able to walk in a parking lot and notice her environment without being triggered is HUGE. When this session first started, we had some trigger stacking to start us off 🫠 car alarms, people yelling, trucks starting. Harlow was way past her threshold so we backed up and allowed her to sniff. To become acquainted with her environment before we started any training. We then spent majority of the session working her basic obedience in a busy area which she excelled at!
