Practicing secondary obedience with Big Puff toy s Practicing secondary obedience with Big Puff toy standing in as the "helper". Bite work wise! Basically I am premacking play with me to get access to the higher value toy and then adding obedience to it. Heeling towards it is HARD! I always love practicing things like this without the helper so as to give my dog low arousal practice without the high stakes and emotions of practicing on a real helper. We used to think the low arousal skills didn't transfer to high arousal but the trainer I am today thinks they definitely do and its a great way to split things down and avoid the need to correct. What is something you think differently about now than you did when you started out training your dog? #positivereinforcement #talic #clickertraining #clickertrainingbitework #gsdofinstagram #igphousedogs #schutzhund

The air was so sweet yesterday! And just like that The air was so sweet yesterday! And just like that Fall has arrived. Took Talic down a trail to the beach with the intention of swimming. Salmon fishers, a gang of otters and some police keeping seals put a stop to that. The beach was so busy with other people and dogs that we took a leashed walk down the beach, something I never would have dreamed was possible as a younger woman. Dogs on leash on a beach? Whats something you've changed through the years with your dogs?
And here is the end result! Go and platz combined. And here is the end result! Go and platz combined. He did great! One mistake and to be expected. The next day I whistled him in place of the platz. He'll need both skills. One for schutzhund and one for ring. Separately I will build enthusiasm for going out and for platzing fast. Most of the skills here can be found in my sendout and down fdsa.self study class.

One of the skills I like to teach my dog is how to One of the skills I like to teach my dog is how to turn around when I say platz. I picked this concept up from Swedish trainer Fanny Gott and she does it for the stand. (Turn 180 degrees and land in a stand) i am sure I do it differently and much less cleverly than Fanny but here is my take with the down. I taught this to Ones as well and am quite pleased with his sendout down speed. #talic #clickertraining #positivereinforcement #onlinedogtraining #onlinelearning #fenzidogsportsacademy #selfstudyonlineclasses #gsdofinstagram #gsdsdoallthethings #igp #igphousedogs
One annoying and adorable thing that makes Ones hi One annoying and adorable thing that makes Ones himself is his desire to scrunch up his blankets into pillows and bolsters. He did this to our bed the other night which makes it really difficult to get under the covers. So I went through the Goodwill pile the other day and found some pillows and added them to his bed. He spent 5 minutes rearranging with paws and mouth and ended up with this. The picture only covers half the cuteness that was there! #secretlifeofones #beddogs #lifeofadogtrainer #housedogs
2 days ago I noticed a smell. Sort of musk sort of 2 days ago I noticed a smell. Sort of musk sort of sweet. I spent all of dinner sniffing the dogs the linens, Dave , etc... then discovered that my houseplant had bloomed! Wow! #nondoghobby #nondogthings #goodplantmom #indoorplants
I had planned to go camping and bond with these tw I had planned to go camping and bond with these two this week but...fires... smoke...2020. Feeling a little powerless in all things but going to re charge and do inside stuff I wouldn't do otherwise! How are you handling all that life plans for you? #talic #hiking #hikingwithdogs #pacificnorthwest #perfectpuppy
Every task is dog training around here. Sigh. Even Every task is dog training around here. Sigh. Even hosing off old dog traction mats. One of the reasons I picked Talic is because of his genetic ability to control himself even in prey instinct..scientifically prey instinct is manifested in a dog in the presence of the trigger, usually movement, in this case the hose. Instead of frustration based behaviors like barking or chomping, Talic offers a down. What household tasks do you turn knto.dog training skills?
