Yesterday was a huge day for Simba and Kenzo...annual vaccination day. And it was a roaring success 🤩

Previously, any vet trip has been incredibly stressful for both boys, not to mention their owners! Simba would bark and snap at staff, Kenzo would shake like a tiny earthquake and urinate on himself.

We have been working hard to change this through cooperative care. A home visit, rather than going to the clinic just made so much sense. Working in our comfort zone set us up well from the start.

We definitely have points to work on and strengthen for future, a few new skills to learn and polish up too.
But the huge take away here, is that neither dog was forcibly restrained at any point. Nobody urinated on themselves (including me, yay), there was no earthquake shaking, and no shut down dogs.

We worked at their pace and let them run the session as they were comfortable.
The result is 2 happy and vaccinated dogs, and 2 super relieved owners!

Some screen time for my little old lady 😍

Vanilla does everything slower, but I still love training with her.
Ears and eyes might not work right, but nothing wrong with that nose!

Thanks so much to sunny Roger for the game changing coaching with her line searches.
I'm not visible in the video, but I'm pacing around up and down at the side. This has helped Vanilla to keep going on the line, without me giving away information about where the scent is.

Something a bit different, and hopefully a bit helpful...
My 4 step guide for how to train a new behaviour! 🤩

Give it a bash, and let me know what skill you trained with your fluffy bestie 🥰

Important reminder:
Cuddle your dog! 🥰

Another useful skill to have - taking an item to bed.

Aya keeps bringing her marrows out to eat on the carpet. I am trying desperately (and failing drastically) to keep that new carpet clean.
So I don't particularly want her bringing her meaty bones out to wipe all over it 😂

I also don't want her bringing high value items out into high traffic parts of the house. Aya is a resource guarder and gets snippy if the other dogs (or even her bestie, the cat) get close to her snacks while she is munching.

I can't recommend this enough if you have a guardy dog.
Remove the conflict.
Take your resource out of the way to your own private space, and take it yourself so I don't have to touch it either.
Everyone's a winner.

But be smart please, practice with non-guarded items first 😉

Just some little skills we have been polishing 🥰

I was absolutely THRILLED (and lets be honest, really quite smug) to be told by a trainer much better than me, that these are actually "advanced" skills.
We had just been doing it as break-down stage of something else, and just pacing our way through. It's taken us time, clear approximations and steady practice.

But I can absolutely see how a dog brain could view this as really hard. 2 skills at once. But the first skill didn't end just because I asked for the second.

Gotta always stay on top of that Dog Logic 😂

Just a real life example of how quick and easy it can be to get rid of undesirable behaviour.
Don't overthink it 😉

Dog training is not all playing with dogs. There is a disturbingly large portion spent sat in front of a computer.

Watching lectures, reading research papers, doing courses, taking notes, designing training plans.

Behaviour science is very young, and we do not know it all. New techniques, new methods and new phenomena are being discovered and observed constantly, it's a full time job staying up to date.

Behaviour science is constantly changing and progressing, so I will too 💪🏼
