Moral of the story. Throw that damn retractable leash in the trash!!! Now let’s move on class.
Poppy came from Afghanistan to @streetdoghero . Her mom was poisoned when she was a puppy. She has a great home now. Her first leash training session was mentally challenging for her.

Getting ready for summer! Get your dog boots! Don’t burn their paws.
Make boots a positive experience. If your dog is resistant, put on one boot and go for a walk. The next day put on two boots and go for a walk. Give high value treats when putting the boots on and then get your dog moving to avoid him/her trying to take the boots off.
If your dog hates having their paws touched start with a simple relaxed session of feeding treats while resting your hand on a paw. Keep it calm, simple, relaxed, and DON’T get in a battle. If you feel frustrated stop there and take your dog for a walk or play a quick game. End on a positive note and try again tomorrow.

This is why Great Pyrenees are incredible. Thor will not harm the chickens but he will let them know they can’t have his food.

14 weeks?!? you say. There is a common misguided belief that service dogs can’t start training until 6 months. This is not true. The first 6 months are most crucial to social development so as soon as a dog shows they have the aptitude to handle increased stimulus we use that to our advantage. Moxy was born with the right temperament to be a potential service dog so as soon as she had time to bond with her little girl & mom and was potty trained we began both public access and obedience training.

Kirin got it!
Tip 1: train for short durations more frequently. Your dog will learn skills much faster this way. You will be amazed how a dog makes the connection from one short session to another.
Tip 2: End the session with success. Even if your dog isn’t doing what you want exactly how you want it, reward them for getting the idea then stop for the day or take a break until the next session.

Check out bloopers 1 & 2. After it was clear that Kirin wasn’t quite there yet with understanding “left bottle” we took a step back to the point of success where we knew he would understand.
