Trick of the week!

Ok, so I absolutely love all the videos! Fromo, your T-rex arms are my fav.

Here's an older video of Zing's sit up, it was free shaped. My hands are close to her after giving the cue so that I can reward quickly, but they do not need to be there to get her into position. We are working on balance, she is a bit better now than this video but I think it's going to be a gradual thing for her. I'll post a new video tonight of both girls.

Sit up is at the 6 minute mark (this was a homework video for Trkman's puppy class)

It works now for me, it didn't last night.

Zing... I love how you just keep putting her back to sit.

Last night I had kind of given up on Pip doing this. At times he seemed really unhappy about it. But after digging out my clicker today I decided to give it another try. I don't know what possessed me to take this video in my pajamas, and once again I am squealing like a little girl... but with the clicker he caught on so fast, and this is the first time that he got both feet off the floor so I'm posting it anyway.

She has a fantastic default heel position. So fantastic that she doesn't understand the concept of sitting facing me.

These videos are all great! Loving seeing everyones dogs'!

Will try to remember and take video of Lily tonight. Scout hates the camera so probably will not get any footage of her, but will work with her too anyway!

These videos are awesome <3

Here's session 3 with Kimma. I lured it with some capturing built in along the way. She's FINALLY not standing on her hinds the whole time, but you can see her waving like a lunatic, trying to back up on to something, and laying down when she sort of gives up LOL. Oh and lots of yelling at me

I'm still going to do a video today, but Zander can only do a few at a time before he starts refusing and offering other things. Probably because he's using his muscles in ways he never has before! It's tiring. Lol.

After the first three or four he starts falling over backwards, but he does get the idea. He just needs more practice and conditioning with it.

Why is Kimma so freaking CUTE! Oh my god I was just awwing at her the whole time. That bark is so funny and adorable. She's hysterical throughout the whole video. And catching on!! Even if you're too stupid to give her the treat when she's obviously doing it correctly when on her hind legs.

And Pip just melts my heart. And he was holding it there at the end really nice! Also, helpful cat is helpful.

Here's Didgie tonight! The first part is the start and the last few seconds are the end of the session. She's starting to really get it and we're building up a little duration there.

I know. I'm such a moron. She's OBVIOUSLY doing it right

LOL thanks, she really is a funny dog. I wish I would have known about shaping when she was a wee pup. She still tends to get stuck every once and a while and will shut down, which is why I'm luring this one for her.

Here's the good dog, AKA Pentti, trying it out for the second session. Luring with him as well as he responds to that best. He also randomly does a crawl at the end which is SO CUTE. I've never taught him that before, but now I totally am going to hahaha.

OMG Didgie! Love the duration you're getting!!! <3

She also has the "MOM I'M DOING IT ON MY HINDS GIVE ME FOODS!" thing sometimes hahaha.
