As Teddy and I were down the street waiting for his dad to pick him up, he made a point to pick this up...

So this is Teddy's street message for everyone...

Well took a bit of a build but we finally seemed to find the right level where he and I can get some play in.

I had him and Ghost play with eachother yesterday, built a bridge of hey I'm here too and it came together for a really nice session all together.

Few reps with e-collar looked pretty good, he did still soften just a tad too much for my liking, but that's an easy enough fix with everything coming together as it is.

Then we just got to have ourselves a good time...

Play with Cash is still a bit like bump starting a standard...

Might have to try a few times but once going your good.

Probably one of my favorite videos just because of Teddy leaking off of place...

Remember we're dealing with a living being...

We don't all always make the "right" choices all the time.

It's going to happen...

What we then want to look at is the response on the rest of the communication.

How easy does it flow?

What's the required level of management for the situation?

When we ask ourselves these questions we'd be surprised on where we can make gains.

Just something to think about...

Well... He tried 😐😅

I might enjoy myself a little too much sometimes... 😅😂

We did multiple reps just like this...

To be honest, I wasn't counting...

I was simply looking for signals that tell me he's wearing out...

This comes in many different ways so it's important that we understand for the individual dog what that means...

After so many "clean" reps the dog will often start to be less "clean" and that's generally our indicator to wrap it up.

Now, in some cases we can absolutely push that line a little bit as long as we can actively help the dog manage and be successful still...

But that doesn't mean do 20 more rep attempts...

Yes, attempts because if you don't know what to pay attention to and what to adjust chances are you'll miss your mark entirely.

That's where a lot of people go wrong during play honestly so as trainers we often suggest keeping as many clean reps as possible and end it before the dog really loses gas.

I've pushed a few over by two reps or so and then no joke a 10 second rep can become a 10 minute endeavor to complete at that point.

The dog is now often "leaking" energy out and can't think straight, while this is still "fun" for the dog in the moment it does carry things over in most cases where the dog might not get a proper reset.

They may struggle to sit later for example and they know sit fairly well under normal circumstances.

So, the important thing is to be aware.

Pay attention to your clean reps, built it out from there little by little and you'll be surprised what you can do in 4 reps vs 20 reps.

You can play in that grey area just be aware, even i only do maybe one or two when the dog shows me whatever their signal may be.

Teddy for example will be less direct on the return trip and that's usually our indicator to end soon so that we end clean through the structure that we employ during play.

Just something to think about...

Remember, ground conditions matter...

It doesn't mean play can't occur, it simply means that sometimes certain conditions require adjustments.

If we slip or the dog slips those levels of physical condition come into play so always be mindful.

Stay safe and enjoy

Simply just because I'm a child 😐😅😂😂

I have no idea how this single piece of kibble ended up in my pocket...

I know the brand which narrows it down to about 4 dogs on sight...

But, I have no idea how it got in there.

Pretty sure it's not Ghost, he got a soak this morning with his supplements...

So that kibble was saturated entirely...

That leaves Mae, Annie, or Teddy...

Who's your guess?

The results are in... 😐😂

Morning sessions are in the books...

Some of it I'm posting some of it I'm not, it's always good to have some stashed for later anyway...

But...

It's one of those things where a good chunk also goes none recorded.

I have one session with Seamus that I'm super happy with and another with Seamus that I'm also super happy with but I'm not likely to show...

Merely because...

This is the internet and while I try to show as much work as possible if you had any idea just how much work goes in throughout the day the way I do the work you'd probably hate me... 😅😂

Realistically it's just using sequences to my advantage.

I attatch sessions to particular things in a way that directly influences the dog in the best way to help them develop and shape the sessions around those scenarios especially when they have to happen anyway.

That's it, that's the secret to dog training.

Every interaction is a session within itself in some way even if it's just going to the bathroom.

When we pick those moments and we shape those moments it doesn't feel like work, it simply just feels like life.

I very much love what I get to do, and I love to share that with others.

There's so much opportunity in day to day life to help us and our dogs develop, we just have to actually want to.

The bar we set daily should be simple enough to achieve, so that when we go over that the rest becomes bonus and the boost we gain from that bonus pushes us to be better and do better.

Just something to think about.
