Congratulations Ford for graduating Give a Sit’s Puppy Prep! 👏👏👏 You’re one smart cookie whose intelligence is out of this world. Your guardians have put a lot into you, patience, love and quality sniffing opportunities. What more could an adolescent dog want! #dogsofbluesky
Oh and really smart way to take focus off using the lead to control. A much needed human skill to let go of the idea the lead is some how a steering wheel.
That sounds like a blast! Love it!!!
The drunken heel haha, this is so much fun!!! #dogtraining #dogsofbluesky #positivereinforcementdogtraining #forcefreedogtraining
Even more confidence boosting, this time for hind end awareness for a pup who’s been having confidence issues after knee surgery. #dogsofbluesky #positivereinforcementdogtraining #forcefreedogtraining #dogbehavior
Hello hello so glad to be among positive company 😁
Small steps make a big difference. The do’s of confidence building using novel exercises. #positivereinforcementdogtraining #dogsofbluesky
For cats and birds, probably prey drive. Bikes & runners, it could look similar but be triggered by movement to then get the runner or bike further away. The key difference with pray drive, in my opinion, is prey drive is silent, there’s a look in the eyes where the rest of the world doesn’t matter.
I don’t train dogs? #dogtraining #dogbehavior #positivereinforcementdogtraining
Train the dog in front of you. Not all dogs learn the same way 😉 #dogsofbluesky #forcefreedogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining
R+ predatory avoidance is some Big Dog S*it! #Forcefreedogtraining #iamnot #positivereinforcementdogtraining #dogtraining
Predatory avoidance… with out corrections? Yes it’s very possible and believe me this dude had a body count. #dogsofbluesky #forcefreedogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining #dogtraining
Generalizing AND confidence building! He’s doing so well. 😊 #dogsofbluesky #positivereinforcementdogtraining #dogtraining

Aggression behavior modification, 3rd session in person and what a turn around! #dogsofbluesky #forcefreedogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining
Hello @dogsofbluesky I have been away from the socials for a sad reason. My girl Gracie was diagnosed with Lymphoma. I’m feeling much better talking about this and turning it into a learning opportunity. Stay posted for some uplifting and educational video content.
Off leash fun brought to you by a relationship built on trust and beef liver… lots of beef liver 😊 Never a shock collar. #IAMNOT #forcefreedogtraining #dogsofbluesky
I can’t think of anything more enjoyable to a dog… ok maybe dinner, but still. #dogsofbluesky #forcedreedogtraining #dogbehavior #positivereinforcementdogtraining
I was honored to have such a fabulous conversation with @glasgowdogtrainer.bsky.social about reactivity, aggression and enrichment.

This gives a new meaning to “I got 99 problems but a bitch (in the literal sense) ain’t one”.

Touch game to encourage exploration. A first step to overcoming fear. #dogsofbluesky #forcefreedogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining
One of the best feelings as a trainer is the feeling your client understands what their dog is saying with body language. This clip, although uneventful, I am soooo proud of. #dogsofbluesky #dogtraining #forcefreedogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining

Oh but you still got the reference and that made my day!
