Got a couple of olympians now!

The boys and I went to do a Doglympics pentathlon for Do More With Your Dog. We had a great time!

[ringchollyandfriends]

For fun, I decided I'd try to get a DMWYD title and APD title with Elliot! 🌟

I'm thinking it'll take about a year to learn 15 tricks w/o a lure since Elliot struggles without lures, but since it's for fun, there's no timeline!

It's interesting to think that Chico could probably learn all that in 2 days (I'm considering trying it, it'd be fun to compare) since Chico somehow understands what I'm asking the second I show him

Okay I'm finally gonna get the Do More With Your Dog trick titles on Haley. Maybe Bree too, we see - she has less patience for tricks which is why she only has the AKC novice level tricks title, and Haley has advanced lol. But Bree can do a lot of tricks on the list. I'm pretty sure I can put a DMWYD Expert title on Haley without having to train anything new.

Can someone explain to me how the spark team/online evaluator thing works? I just find someone who can do it and send them the videos? Am I paying them or DMWYD or both?

Still waiting to hear back from a trainer if they can evaluate our NTD

Have joined the DMWYD Facebook group too and am just waiting for my membership to be confirmed in hopes someone there can do it for me. I know I’m being impatient but I’m super excited at the prospect of getting this fun lil title because it’s something I’ve wanted to officially do for a very very long time.

Hana could have got it but I could never catch everything on camera on top of timing everything right to not be disturbed by other dogs. I really wanted her to have it, and now it’s entirely possible for Juno to get it and I’m losing my mind

YAYYYYYY

thanks to @parkourdog91 i’m sending in my application for sivi AND bazzy to get their Advanced Trick Dog titles!!! this will be bazzy’s first title 🥰

[thedutchsighthound]

A lot happened, me and Human picked up training more again, which is fun, I got my CCF1, hooray! Also the puppies all went to their new homes! We visited Otje (who lived with friends now) and brought gifts, more pictures of that later!

I am feeling good again, was feeling very bad after the attack and had painkillers for about a week, but am  good again.

Our humble achievements wall.

Omg these DMWYD titles are pricey 😳 I’ve only put Furby’s in so far and it’s over $300 😱😰

To be fair, it’s 7 titles with optional ribbons and patches. I’m a rosette fiend. Gotta hoard the pretty ribbons.

Might have to split them up if I can 😅

Huge applause for the awesome @allenwithac! He's done an amazing job raising #Jango, the 7mos #miniaussie! Jango has been well socialized and taken on as many trips as possible since the beginning. They started obedience training with us, followed the rules, and as a result Jango is on his way to earning all of the privileges and freedom he could ever want. Way to go, guys! Keep up the great work! Super Trainer Tip: Socializing and training begin at 7/8 wks (or the day you bring your new companion home). This is when your pup learns how to learn. Whatever they experience, or don't experience, positive or negative, has a lifelong impact. Here, both Cosmic and Jango are learning proper social etiquette along with their obedience in a realistic situation. Our board and trains become part of our family and spend the day working with us, helping us train other dogs, and experiencing the joys of being a dog trainers dog. 😉 Structure; it does a puppy good! 🐾 Sharing is caring!

Tricks for Tricks Title:

It's most likely going to take me a year to teach a dog even half of these because I'm bad at problem solving, BUT it's motivating me right now even if I don't know if Elliot is staying (if not, I'll work with Chico).

AKC

1. Sit (handler's choice)

2. Crawl (3 body lengths)

3. Find it (find treat/scent item under a cup or object)

4. Get in (get inside box)

5. Get on (4 paws on low platform)

6. Kennel up (Go to crate, stay until released)

7. Jump (through a hoop or over low bar)

8. Spin

9. Touch it (hand or target stick)

10. Tunnel

11. Get your leash/object

DMWYD

12. Down

13. Paws up

14. Target mark (go to target)

15. Leave it

FOR MYSELF:

- Start cooperative care

- Start on conditioning exercises

- Work on seperation anxiety / isolation distress / whatever this is

- Stay

- Calmness / Calmness around Nelly

- Scent work

- Leash manners (aka less pulling + stay on my right because my left side isn't functional)

- Bong! (maybe because Elliot does that naturally and I'm trying to teach him not to yeet himself on people)

All of my recent pictures of Hunter look like this

It’s 2:30am and I cannot sleep

So I did some digging into the DMWYD trick titles with Juno in mind, intending to compile a list of all the things we need to work on

But actually… I think she has enough to get her Novice??? The plan was to try and get it before the end of the year but I could probably send off for one in a month if I wanted. Which is faster than I’d planned for.

Trick training will be a big focus for the next two weeks to see if I can tie up the loose ends on the things she’s a bit hit and miss with

Can intact silkens compete in AKC events? Since they're not a recognized breed and they'd have to be neutered to be registered under the PALS program.

Intact silkens cannot participate in AKC events since, as you mentioned, they must be sterilized to obtain a PAL number as the breed nor the UKC is recognized by AKC. This is the same with CKC and a PEN/CCN, which is why Pod can’t participate in CKC CAP or Sprinter events.

Intact silkens can participate in UKC, ASFA, LGRA, NOTRA, CARO, and non-AKC/CKC agility associations. There are probably other organizations intact silkens can participate in for official titles/points, but these are the ones I’m aware of.

[intriga-hounds]

took a step forward on trick dog titles by printing the trick list and cataloguing the ones i feel most confident about with both dogs.

key:

🔴 = sivi

🟢 = baz

☑️ = learned

🔘 = almost learned/doable with lure

⭐️ = started/want to start, learnable within a few weeks

❗️ = long-term goal

based on this, sivi could achieve ATD pretty easily, and baz is already very close to ITD. will try to get video soon. ☺️
