Almost 3 months since I brought Niamh home!

Training my yearling to accept a neckrope. The first repetition is to show the issue, subsequent repetitions demonstrate the process. Next stop, a normal over-the-head halter (using a rope halter right now as it doesn’t go over the ears in such a way as to trigger the problem)

Percy playing Jenga :) #dogs #pets #animals

Wait until you see him playing Jenga :)

Double trouble heel with my two dogs. Percy (little guy) is more skilled so I have him on the off side. This skill is useful in the city for walking through crowds or tight spaces. #dogs #dogtraining #positivereinforcement

Training my yearling to circle around me using clicker training #horse #horsetraining

I’m in Vancouver. Training is so much fun, I can’t see why anybody would just stop after puppy classes!

My first post on Bluesky. I train dogs, this is Percy doing a sit pretty on my shoulder :) #dogtricks #dogtrainer
