Some water ops and words of wisdom from @thirdeye_k9 to end the work day. (ft. Tracking Harness in Black) #modernicon #madeinusa #handmade 📷 @thirdeye_k9 ・・・ Approximately 71% of this planet is covered by water....you would be surprised how many dogs won't work in or around water. Training venues MUST change....the two and four legged get comfortable when "training" on facilities. #naturallakesandrivers #manmadedoesntcount Good couple of days with @jakeandfinndog #water #h2o #coldwaterwilltakethefightoutofmostallmammals @bettertogether_k9 @dyas_k9 @modernicon1 #sportingdogsarenotworkingdogs #weareacertainbreedandwedontlikeyou

A little puppy love to end the night, compliments of Miss Trout and @thirdeye_k9 (ft. 1" Soft Collar in Black) #modernicon #madeinusa #handmade #qualityoverquantity 📷 @bettertogether_k9 ・・・ Miss Trout getting some #love from our #DogMan @thirdeye_k9 after she did some #backpack and #dirtbike #work... All of our dogs do work, not because we bribe them with toys, or force them via e-collar, rather they do it because we need them to. Our dogs recognize this need and do what they are told with simple love and praise as their reward. #openandhonestcommunication is vital to developing a #true #workingdog... #sportingdogsarenotworkingdogs Our #philosophy as well as #methodology are simple when you think about it... Don't get caught up in the unessential when it comes to #training your dog... Keep it simple, clear, and direct, giving lots of love/praise for a job well done, or clear correction when they don't do as asked. You may be surprised how receptive your #pup will be to this simple process. #dogtraining #openandhonest #constantstudent #nextgeneration #ourfuture #malinois #belgianmalinois #Montana #bettertogether #thirdeyek9
