We only got to film one session this with week one of Louie’s best friends, Harry. Usually there is a lot of playing and not much walking when these two get together so it was tricky to get Lou settled. Very much appreciated the tips during our team check in @Nath Morrison 🙏 The circles at the start helped so much! @Loma Simmons

Louie is getting much better with engaging around distractions. Over the week we’ve been able to increase our distance and duration almost every training session. @Loma Simmons

First up… THE WILD DOGS ARE ON THE BOARD! 🙌🏻🔥 Huge congratulations to @Zali Nagle and Marlo for taking out Skill 3: The Down! Bloody stoked with your effort, guys. The comeback is on! Jackals, don’t get too comfortable 😉🐕 In today’s live, we chatted about taking these skills into real life and helping your dog reconnect with you when there’s something more exciting happening nearby. 🐾 Starting too close: Give your dog enough space to process the distraction and still respond to you. 🐾 The world changing your setup: Dogs approach, people appear and distractions move. It’s okay to walk away, create space and reset. A harder session doesn’t erase your progress. If your dog is struggling, make the next rep easier and build from there 💪🏻 Watch the replay and drop your questions, wins or sticking points below. That’s what this community is here for! 🤍

Louie’s getting better at holding his down stay and settling in to wait for his next command. @Loma Simmons

From not being able to do a downstay 2 weeks ago to being able hold it with construction going on next to us 🥰 So proud of my stumpy, Maia 🩷 WHAT TEAM? WILD DOGS!!!
