I forgot to do a Week 4 Recap post this week but she's crushing it.
#dogblr#rory borealis#she's honestly turning into such a cool little dog#we focused more on cooperative care and conditioning this week#since it was xmas so i wasnt motivated to go out#anyway we started pivots balancing exercises and proper positioning for square sits#also worked on combing clipping and nail grinding#this week's victory was really good name recognition and learning to ask for things (food training outside snuggles)#next week's goal is more neutrally around pinecone and starting on polite greetings (all four feet on the floor)#she has her last set of vaccines and starts one of her puppy classes and has a puppy grooming session#im excited to see what she learns from them

Can the balanced dog trainers please stop fucking talking about positive reinforcement as if those dogs are not “obedience trained”? A majority of competition obedience dogs I know were trained with R+. Letting your dog wander on the end of a line because you want to do so does not = untrained. It is simply…a choice.
#dogblr#dog training#I try to hear both sides and follow a diversity of people but this really stands out to me#1.) balanced means using multiple quadrants. positive reinforcment is part of that#2.) balanced trainers come off really insecure in their own philosophy when they do stuff like this#you should not have to put down other dog owners and trainers to elevate yourself#if you have to do this constantly there is a problem#the reality is to me so many of these people scream ‘I’m important and smart look at me me me!’#the equating of r+ as = untrained in these circles is wildly prolific#‘I fixed this former r+ dog that was reccomend for BE!’#acting like all r+ people are the inexperienced pet folks who have taken a single puppy petsmart class#and not a wide variety of individuals with varying abilities#meanwhile how dare r+ and force free people put THEM in the same box as abusive aversives using people#it’s just…how do these people have time to be like this#like shouldn’t you be training dogs?#every time people talk poorly about positive reinforcment I want to take them to a zoo#the hyenas do cooperative care with positive reinforcement#the tigers wolves and bears and other large dangerous animal too#your domestic dog is not different or special or in any way more in need of aversive treatment

Your puppy fever was a little to contagious!
Contacted a breeder and getting a Belgian sheepdog soon, since it will be our first puppy (and dog), I was wondering if you have any tips that maybe are not usually found when researching and come from experience.
Looking forward to my own snout fluffer!!
!! congrats on your (future) baby! I’m mostly just stumbling my way through life with the thought process of “this will probably work out fine” so I don’t know that I have too many puppy tips I can give you haha. I can say, from working in vetmed, to try to make sure your puppy gets used to crates and restraint young! it makes such a huge difference when a dog is losing its shit and hard for staff to handle vs a dog that is tolerant (or at least not freaking out), and herding breeds can be very sensitive to that. like I completely forgot to desensitize Stellina to collar/harness grabs as a puppy and didn’t realize until one day someone tried and she panicked - oops. So with Kep we’ve just done some simple “I am tugging your collar haha silly here’s a treat” and he’s already ambivalent about it. So I think it’s all pretty standard stuff like that! Genuinely I am just kind of doing whatever and assuming that people have had dogs for ages so I probably won’t be screwing up irrevocably 🤷♀️
im not very knowledgeable about Belgian sheepdogs (besides thinking they’re very pretty and I would probably try to own a tervuren if I was more brave/competent) but @groenendaze and @herdybunch may have some pointers for you! I am just a little idiot with my easy herding-lite companion breed 😅
#the classic ‘surely people dumber than me have succeeded at this so I can too’ strategy#you’ll probably be stressed and feel like you ruined your life at first but it’ll pass! puppies do suck but they’re also very fun#anyway enjoy cleaning up Endless Piss 👍#but yeah otherwise basic stuff! take a puppy training class go visit lots of places stay positive. Etc etc

if my college had admitted more freshmen this year i would be adopting a dog as we speak
#charlie dot txt#i got reassigned campus housing after getting denied because there were fewer freshmen than anticipated#so if i did live off campus like i was originally supposed to i would be in the process of adopting the guide puppy we raised last year#because he just failed the guide program for being scared of car rides :( :( :( sweet boy#crazy part is he would still be better trained than every other service dog ive been in classes with. lol

Is There a Way to Get My Dog to End His Annoying Habit of Stealing Food?
As a child, I would never want to characterize myself as a brat. I would rather say that I would sometimes be slightly naughty in a cute and precocious sort of way. To be honest, I just liked to bug my parents from time to time. I would normally bug Mom more than Dad. I don’t know why, I just did.
So, what do my childhood confessions do with today’s topic regarding your dog stealing food from the table? Let me recant one of my “cute and precocious” incidents.
Mom ate lunch every day at the same time and always had the same thing. She had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on wonder bread with butter and a single slice of lettuce. She also had half a sliced pear with a dollop of mayonnaise and six to ten Ruffle potato chips.
She always left the “best chip” until the end of her lunch. (You know the “best chip”. It is the biggest one that is still whole.) Just as she was finishing and ready to have her chip, I would swoop in from behind, grab the chip, run off, and eat it just out of her reach.
In other words, I stole her chip (or food). I knew it was wrong, but then I was just “cute and precocious”.
When your dog steals food from the table, he may not know that it is wrong. You may have set up an ongoing environment that tells him that it is OK to “take your food” and you are allowing it. The bottom line is that you don’t want your dog to steal your food. You need to let him know it is always wrong.
Robin and I have a great dog training article that will allow you to quickly teach your dog that stealing your food is wrong. Please read our dog training blog titled “Is There a Way to Get My Dog to End His Annoying Habit of Stealing Food”.

She’s not even 5 months old and already a graduate!
#dogblr#puppy#pippin#husky mix#dog training#next class we’re joining the local dog training club for more advanced work#but this one started the week after she came home and we were able to get into it#so better simple basics than no basics

kinda grateful that we’re off for obedience training this week bc I’ve got a lot to think about before we go back. our class on Wednesday was messy, to put it lightly, for a variety of reasons, including my own anxieties and frustrations, Roland reacting to my emotions, and the fact that it was storming outside, among other things, but I think another major factor was the instructor. so far, in the three weeks we’ve been doing this class, we’ve had three different instructors, which has been a bit chaotic but has worked for the most part. the instructor we had on Wednesday was the only one who I have not liked working with. I feel like she was far too impatient with Roland and I and didn’t give us much of a chance to work out any mistakes or work through our struggles, leaving me feeling like I was constantly struggling to keep up with the rest of the class. she said that she’s used to working with the more advanced classes, which might be part of why it felt like she wasn’t giving us much time to learn anything.
my current predicament is trying to figure out what to do next. I’m not sure if she’s going to be teaching our classes for the rest of the beginner class (I’m really hoping she isn’t, but idk), but if she is, it’s not going to be very encouraging to try to stick it out and finish. on the other hand, the beginners class is only for about 6 weeks, and then we could move up to the intermediate class. I’ve watched the intermediate classes and seen the instructors and the way they’ve been taught, and it seems like something Roland and I would both do well in. so im thinking i should just suck it up and stick it out and finish the beginners classes so we can move up. surely it can’t be that bad, right?
#im half tempted to beg and see if we can join the puppy class#even though roland is in no way a puppy#since that looks way more doable and fun than what we were doing#idk maybe we need to go back to the basics of formal obedience?#i could train somewhere else but I don’t think there’s any way to get around doing this beginners class#if we want to continue at this club#and yeah roland and I were both off our game#so idk maybe it seemed worse than it was#roland#bunny rambles#ignore me

Apologies for the ass video quality. I took the video of the computer using my phone because our recording software wasn't working yet.
Anyways here is the first part of our control run where we established @nutmeg-puppygirl preferred playstyle and how we can properly subvert it.
Tumblr only let's me post one video per post so I'll see if I can get the other two on reblog.
#good girls kill for mistress :)#196#transgirl#clicker training#puppy pl@y#yes this is for a real class

Okay friends. Say you were getting a puppy for the very very first time and didn't know much about dogs or dog training. What are some topics you would like to learn about in an online class?
This can be anything from teaching them how to sit or stay, or nutrition, or how to socialize them, etc.
#I'm putting together an online puppy class that I'm going to sell through my dog training business in the future#and I'm trying to think up what kinds of topics would be helpful

Another dog show in the books!
We showed in a sporting dog specialty this morning and she did beautifully! Great stacking, great gaiting, honestly just awesome. The judge really focused on expression which is not our strong suit (Rory bounces between a melted "omg you're my best friend in the world" face and a "I can't see you there's a pepperoni I want" face) and she ultimately awarded it to the other dog in our class. I felt like she gave Rory a fair look though and Rory really did great!
We also showed in an all breed show this afternoon but unfortunately it was so so so so so warm and the show was so delayed we went in a little frazzled. Rory tried her best but she was a little overwhelmed and really tired so we didn't gait well. The judge also mumbled instructions and I couldn't tell what she wanted me to do (I was first in our class) and I feel like she just gave up on having me do things. She gave Rory a really thorough look before she awarded the other dog though so that was nice!
I'm excited for tomorrow! It is unfortunately another afternoon show but we don't have anything in the morning so hopefully we can get in the game. We have a lot of really nice competition so I'm not expecting anything, but it's been really nice practice so far anyway!
#show dog chronicles#about aurora#there were 12 and 15 brittanies today respectively!#tomorrow there will be 13 i believe#i would love to just place above one dog#just win the junior puppy female class#i dont need to move up to winners!#just one non-default ribbon#the other junior puppy female is soooo nice though#although less trained than rory (which is saying a lot lol)#but she is less awkward adolescent#i cant be a hater about jt#rory tried really really hard and ate a lot of string cheese so she came out a winner in my heart

#text#like i heard from a trainer that border collies also have this tendency but uuuhhh u should still. try to. train it out?#hello????#so far dew really only does it to milo probably because milo is confrontational and escalates the situation really fast#which like obviously i don’t want cause dew ALSO escalates and even tho they’re buddies i can see fights developing in the future#we have a personal trainer coming tomorrow and dew starts puppy classes on saturday#in the meantime i’m doing counter conditioning exercises with milo and dew#i knew milo was gonna b the problem child 🙄🙄#most dogs bow out when milo pushes but dew does not l o l

Dk how real your fear of Nora Sakavic really is but Im pretty sure she only interacts with random posts if her betas send them first. So if anything you have to be Weirder
firing shots to keep my blog's rent low by posting increasingly more deranged psychosexual headcanons for kevin day's interpersonal relationships such as: i think kevin should clicker train jeremy knox
#kevin: im not arguing with jeremy click click#IT WOULD WORK#you people cant post your golden retriever jeremy memes but i cant say kevin clicker trains him. ok#puppy play a staple of homosexual working class culture and i cant even make a little joke about it#asks#god what do i even tag this as#keremy
