If you have a Labrador, you know how important impulse control is….especially when dealing with food 😋

When communication and expectations are clear, everyone is set up for success. We’ve never tried this before but seemed like a fun little test. Good boys!

Remi - 11 weeks

Shaping the delivery to hand.

Very pleased with our progress on the dumbbell work. In a matter of days, we were able to try this in a new area and incorporate the place board. Love seeing her little brain work.

OUT!

A very important command to have for your dog, bird dog or not. In this video I am teaching Remi how to tug and then proceed to give me the toy on the out command. Notice how she willingly gives it up a few reps in.

I like to teach tug as it’s a very interactive game to play with your dog that also builds connection.
