Continuing to maintain what Lexi and Ace have learned. Using Lexi being in high eustress to apply a strong distraction to the mix, and having solid obedience works much better than trying to physically control. Having both inside in their prospective spots and maintaining downs, keeping both in a heel […]

Took Chet and Lexi to woods to continue to help him learn proper social behaviour. Let her run and had Chet walking in heel to increase his self-control, giving him lots of verbal praise for maintaining heel. On letting him free he tried to engage improperly ignoring her cutoff signals […]

Laney
Laney is a very fearful German Shepherd mix. She is very fearful of humans. She wasnt socialized at all as a puppy. I got her at 10 months old to work with her and foster her. She was with me for about 3 weeks before the rescue needed me to […]

Shadow
Krimean (or something like that) - from somewhere in Ukraine. Apparantly the result of breeding black and white shepherds - from a breeder in Idaho. Not AKC certified, but looks like a German shepherd to me - maybe a little longer and leaner.

Thanks Michael.
Yes, Ace is trained to that level of distraction. I do call him into a down or heel every time someone comes into “range.” I have had him go into downs from as far as 150ft away from me off leash to keep him out of trouble.
After he got used to a couple clients I let him run close but loose until one was helping me clean up after…[Read more]

A lot of dogs learn to anticipate commands based on a stimulus. For example, i have trained a lot of dogs that automatically go to a “place” command when they hear a doorbell because they anticipate the doorbell leads to the “place” command.
I used to have a wireless doorbell installed in the training room and I would ring the doorbell many…[Read more]
