Share your own holiday trips for getting your dogs through the upcoming holiday.

I like to refresh the place cues before big holiday get togethers and have the good chew bones/kongs prepared for the pups that need down time.

What can be a reward?

Anything your dog truly wants in the moment! If you know what your dog wants in any given moment you can train at any time. It can be a chance to say to a friend, to run zoomies, to play, to be left alone (yes some dogs don’t want to always be interacted with), food, treats, a toss of a toy.
This list can go on forever, so what is your dogs FAVORITE reward?

Nervous dogs like space!

The more you try to win them over they longer they will take to trust. Stop trying to touch and feed from your hand. Instead, try throwing food away from you, keep your body directed as away as safely as possible, dont try to touch when they approach.

All of things make a differnce help them see you're trustworthy, non threatening. Allow them to work on their time.

When training can be fun! Jolene is a blast to work with.

Training with Jolene and her mom, always fun. Keeping the fun in training is important…. These two get the idea.

Impulse Control

I’m sure you hear it all time when people talking about training their dogs. At 6 months old thanks to lots of play, and learning obedience cues, like place. What not you don’t see here is the people moving around the noises as he’s in a public setting, the sandwich at eye level within a few feet.

Train and play with your pups, it will pay off.

What’s going on here?

Impulse control. Practicing an obedience cue like place, with a high value item (in this case a tug). Can help prepare your dog to resist tempting things in the real world.
What’s not pictured is the way this cue is also practiced in between play sessions. So this guy in particular was asked to go from crazy play to wait patiently and resist the item of value both stationary and in motion.

Building Confidence, training, impulse control, and focus.
This was all being worked with Ms. Phoebe, but what was best about this was it was FUN!
When we started this game it looked more like a game of keep away, until it became the cooperative yet competitive game of tug!

This happy handsome guy is Jax.

He’s working on getting comfortable while being crated. He loves using play and food to train. And lucky for him we used both in out last session.
