As if he couldn’t get any better… Atri is a fetch MACHINE!! He plays seamless fetch, bringing it back every. single. time. and gives everything he’s got on every throw in true GSD fashion 🥰🐶
That first freedom roll is like nothing else. This video was taken just a few hours after his scheduled fate. Let the waterworks begin! 🥹😭

✅ DAY 2&3: EXPOSURE
For the last 2 days, the spice pups have been getting individual attention and playtimes, and supervised group play. This allows me to learn more about each puppy as an individual, and in turn help place them in the home that is best suited for their unique personality and needs.
Fortunately, I have a main road very close to my home that is blocked by a chainlink fence and sidewalk which offers a perfect opportunity to ease into those crazy traffic sounds and sights we experience in everyday life.

CRATE TRAINING IS NOT OPTIONAL for young puppies. Although we want nothing more than to coddle and shower them with love from the beginning, they need structure to blossom into the fabulous family pet you expect!…..
A large portion of that is learning independence and self soothing habits longterm, which starts with the crate. Unfortunately puppies do not come hard wired with a keen understanding of this and so, if you are thinking of purchasing or adopting a puppy be ready for the crate chorus!
This video was taken on night one and lasted about 25 minutes before everyone was passed out cold for the night. 🐶💤
Some fun with my girl the other day! Toy drive can be such an incredible tool and I know this video is not perfect, but I do not expect her to be perfect. I do however enjoy how much pure passion I see from her and her attentiveness to my direction, for one single ball throw. Dog training should be fun, engaging, and exciting way before it is expected to be perfect. ✨
