Today for our session we training in my front drive way, we used the noise from the street as a distraction for our training. Today we focused on introduction to ecollar, teaching Abbie what the ecollar stimulation means and how to proper turn that feeling off. Today all I was asking from Abbie was to just come into my space whenever she feels it. Overall Abbie is doing a great job at responding to the ecollar!

Today for our afternoon session Abbie and I worked on my front drive way once again, using the noise from the street as distractions along with my personal dogs being behind the gate near her. Today we focused on pairing all of the commands with leash pressure along with the stimulation from the ecollar as well! During our session you can see Abbie at times being stubborn andĀ ignoring the stimulation from the ecollar tool, with constancy and patience during our reps and sessions . Abbie was able to understand exactly what I was asking for. We paired the ecollar with leash pressure for heel , sit , down , and place as well! Overall Abbie is doing great and learning quickly!

Today Abbie and I worked on all of her obedience around my personal dog, when they first met Abbie didnāt like him . She would constantly be barking at him and at times snap at him if he got too close. Abbie has a very good understanding of the ecollar now , so Iām going to be adding the ācome to sit ā command within these next few days , along with proofing the rest of her obedience commands around other dogs and distractions.

Today Abbie and I worked on all of her obedience on my driveway. We also worked on her reactivity to my personal dog Kisa. Kisa is a big puppy that loves to play, and Abbie at first did not like her. Every time Kisa would get next or near her, she would snap and bark at her. I decided to have our session with Kisa on the place next to us, and at times break them to allow them to interact with each other. I did notice today that she was being a bit extra stubborn today, I had to go up on higher numbers with the ecollar along with showing her the pressure with the leash until she finally followed through for the down command.

Today Abbie and I met up with the offleash SoCal team at a local park in Cerritos Ca, to get some training in around distractions! Today I realized that Abbie needs some work on holding her positions around other dogs, especially the bigger dogs. The only other thing I noticed she needs a bit more work on, is sharpening up her ā recall to sitā command. Other than that she did pretty good at heeling around the ducks that were at the park.Ā
