Saturday with Susie ๐พ Susie builds confidence!
As Susie nears the end of her Board and Train here with us at Doggone Fit LLC, we will increase her exposure to some previously super scary stuff for her! Now that Susie is a calmer, confident girl, she can tackle these bigger obstacles with success and less stress. Here she gets lots of yummy treats in our kiddie pool filled with bottles. As we have mentioned before, eating while having objects around the face and the rear while eating is an extremely challenging process for any dog to work through. Within minutes, Susie has it down pat.
Go Susie!!!

Sunday Funday! We're working for our food today! Here Zuko is eagerly eating his food ration out of our kiddie pool filled with water bottles. This exercise is a super confidence builder! Although Zuko was very hesitant to enter the kiddie pool, hot dogs mixed with his food help to entice him. Look at him go!! ๐พโฅ๏ธ๐พโฅ๏ธ๐พโฅ๏ธ
As Sascha and Cooper await their turn, Sascha is showing clear signs of impatience (whining, pacing, avoidance) while Cooper is just not that into the food (yet!). A great exercise for all of our Board and Trains.

Enjoy your Sunday everyone!
Tank-Tank goes home
Watch as Tank naturally gravitates to his "place" when he feels a bit uncomfortable in this social setting.
Teaching the power of place is very underrated!!
Much like meditation, it may seem like nothing is happening. However, your brain is super busy re-connecting neurons and creating new habitual trails. It is literally retraining the brain to be calm! Tank has mastered this skill and we are looking forward to seeing him blossom at home. ๐พ๐พ๐พ

What does your dog do all day?
Happy feet- its dremel day
Meet Paris and Alaina.
Paris is a 15 month old Rottweiler.
His owner Alaina just adopted him this past weekend and quickly reached out to Doggone Fit LLC when she noticed that Paris had some food guarding issues.
In this video you see that structure and consistency, accompanied with trust and the correct tools have allowed us to show Paris that there is no reason to guard his food from anyone or anything.
You can see Alaina is able to put her fingers in the food bowl, move the food bowl around, and remove Paris from the food with simple leash pressure and a command. No growling, staring or aggressive behavior.
Paris and Alaina both have some homework to do moving forward but they are both ready and eager to learn and work! Great job guys! ๐๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
