FDSA Camp is on the horizon! October 6-8th and I FDSA Camp is on the horizon! 
October 6-8th and I heard a rumor there were still spots available!

Want speedy confident skills out of your dog? Do y Want speedy confident skills out of your dog? Do you want your verbal cue to be truly an "opportunity" ? Want your dog to push you to play and train?
I really believe that getting the dog to think it is their idea to perform the skill regardless of what you are doing is the key to getting speed and confidence. 
I'm giving a webinar on this concept Thursday September 22 through FDSA.

Happy Birthday to this Joyful bundle of energy! An Happy Birthday to this Joyful bundle of energy! An amazing 1 year old, 1 trip around the sun.
It was too soon for me to get a puppy but when the litter announcement of a 6 pack of red sables ran across my feed, I investigated further.
He is stretching me as a trainer, and is so earnest and bonded socially. 
And did I mention Joyful?
Happy birthday Ion, aka Big Chunks!

I'm giving my on line retrieve class in the Octobe I'm giving my on line retrieve class in the October term and entering Ion so you can see real time training on one of my dogs
Instead of cleverly edited clips making my training look better than it is!
Ion needs to brush up on his fronts because we need them at about week 3 of class when we take our beautiful holds and want the dog to actually move with something in their mouths. 
I dont teach fronts in the course but your short hack for getting good fronts is to reinforce from your face, which for me is spitting treats.
Got any questions about the retrieve course? 
Drop them here!
Working on my sun challenge for clinical drug stud Working on my sun challenge for clinical drug study and these 2 have different opinions....
6 hours! No reaction. In the past, 30 minutes outside would send me bolting inside and in enough pain in the next 24 hours that going outside was not an option. 
Is this what it is like to be "normal"?
So happy for all the scientists working hard on creating cures for people with rare diseases!

And this week it's all about heeling! I'm really h And this week it's all about heeling!
I'm really happy with Ion's heeling so far. Prancing but not extreme. I've worked super hard for his mindset because this dog can go over aroused and extreme in a millisecond.
My shaping moving heel is running this term at FDSA-check it out!
