I’m doing a little creative time wasting making Custom Dog Songs. Because the laborious hours of dog training only count when you can turn them into RIDONKULOUS music videos #keeshondsofinstagram #dogtraining (for #artists @donna.ai.music
Just a video I took quickly today to show his pawrents a little bit of training we were doing together on our walk. I especially love using all of the urban formations and obstacles in the cityscape to work them into our training so that walking isn’t boring and linear —-for either of us ! #nycdogtraining #goldenretrievers

One can get in the bucket and drink it, the other ones asks me to “Puhleeze to be removing the water for me?” #meetsiggy #ernestineJellyBean The #Frenchie
Every day I practice a little bit of grooming with Siggy, my current board and train dog. It’s just any quiet time that we’re together-I can give him a chew toy and while he’s working on that I get my tools out and I do some “mock” grooming, where the goal isn’t to get some thing “done” – it’s more about acclimating him to the process slowly and incrementally so that it’s not something unpleasant. Siggy is a keeshound dog.
This is a short video of some free shaping. I did today with a little Chihuahua pup. This might appear deceptively simple like it’s a Fetch, but it isn’t really it’s a trained pick up and return to the mat with the toy. Free shaping is a type of training where you don’t use lures and prompts. You mostly start with behaviors that the dog is offering to you and train them in increments to a finished behavior. 🩵 I’m a huge fan of it because I find it in interesting, and the more you do it the faster it goes for every successive thing you teach your pup. #freeshaping #clickertraining #puptraining #chihuahuasofinstagram #doinkdoesit
