So this came out of the blue last night we were sitting there for about 10 mins or so and out of know where’s Harley sits up and started alerting my rest rate was like 101 ish and she kept doing it and I started to feel off after a min or so i checked my watch well she caught it before I felt it I started recording after a few seconds after she started alerting

We got Pippa, the cat, a new laser toy. . . She sat there staring at the toy and Saffy ‘played’ with the moving red dot. That was not what we were expecting!🤣 Gave us our daily laugh early!

Amica is working on retrieving my Essentials Bag from various places in different rooms of the house. She was definitely hesitant at first. I love how she looks back at me for reassurance and that I can help her by encouraging her that she can do this.

Amica is practicing her new retrieval skill at a new place in the house.

Joy is looking pretty COOOL — becoming desensitized to wearing her new pink Rex Specs! 🐾 When introducing something new like this, it’s all about small steps and positive associations: 1. First, let your dog sniff the gear to get familiar with it. 2. Then, place it briefly on their face. 3. Finally, clip it on their head for a short moment. For now, we’re only working with the frames (no lenses) so Joy can get used to the feeling without too much change at once. Every step is paired with verbal praise, treats, and lots of positive reinforcement. 🐶 Training Takeaway You might notice your dog looking a little uncomfortable or unsure with new gear at first. That’s totally normal! What matters most is what they remember about the experience. At the end of this video, you can see how excited Joy was — and that’s intentional. The "after-training" experience is just as important as the training itself. When you wrap up with 2–5 minutes of fun, play, and “you’re the coolest dog ever” energy, your dog walks away remembering: ✨ “Training with my person is FUN!” ✨ That memory makes them more eager and excited to try again next time. It also helps them shake off any hesitation, bond closer with you, and look forward to learning. Key tip: Always finish on a positive note. Even if the session is calm or a little challenging, end with fun so your dog leaves happy, confident, and ready for the next round!!
