One of the many reasons I love having a Collie: We went for a one mile run and he is totally content 😂

Normalize setting your dog up for success: Make the behavior you want easy and the behavior you don’t want, hard.

Reinforcement drives behavior! 🐾

A black brindle Cane Corso stands with a double rainbow in the background and a leash hanging down from her harness. The rain on the ground reflects the horizon, making for an ethereal portrait.

Demonstrating that Cane Corsos and other similar large/XL breeds can not only learn but also THRIVE with good FF/R+ training is a passion of mine.

I love Sniffspot - the app you can search for privately listed spaces available to rent for your dog(s) by the hour. Great for novel outings without having to go out to the woods, and great for rest stops on road trips too!

Three dogs standing on a tree stump among a forested background, facing the camera with all of their mouths open with happy expressions. Two smooth collies (one tricolor and one sable) stand on the right and a blue merle Australian Shepherd is on the left.

Harvest Moon found a rat this weekend! We had a great time at our first Barn Hunt trial. As a trainer who works with behavior cases and everyday-type manners, trying out new sports is a fun challenge! 🐀

A smooth Collie stands happy looking at the camera in front of a blue, snowflake-themed backdrop with decorative rats sitting next to him. A sign displaying “RATI” is displayed above the rats, indicating “Barn Hunt Instinct” title has been achieved. A large blue Barn Hunt branded ribbon hangs from his collar.

Idk why both their sweaters ended up looking low-cut/shoulderless 😂

A black brindle Cane Corso and grayish-tan AmStaff/Pittie mix of sorts stand side by side on a concrete traffic barrier, both wearing harnesses with hot pink leashes connected to them. The Cane Corso has a closed mouth with a serious facial expression and the Pibble’s mouth is open and relaxed while looking slightly off to the side.

Pro tip: Get a longer leash! Especially a BioThane one 😘

Our dogs’ movements are more erratic than ours; they tend to follow scents vs marked paths. A longer leash helps them explore with less opportunity for leash tension.

A tricolor (black, white, and tan) smooth collie stands atop a rain-soaked picnic table against a foggy background. He’s wearing a high visibility orange harness with a perfectly matching waterproof BioThane leash.

It WOULD be my son with the leaf and drool across his face 🤦‍♀️

#dogsofbluesky #collie #collies #roughcollie #smoothcollie
Three Collie dogs are looking at the camera. On the left is a sable rough, the middle is a tricolor smooth, and the right is a tricolor rough. The one in the middle has a leaf and drool stuck across his face, but seems unphased.

This was one of my favorite courses I’ve ever taken. Highly recommended 🙌

If you are an animal trainer interested in behavior science, or a behavior scientist interested in application with animals--this course is invaluable. I serve as a TA and it may be my favorite gig of all my gigs. Register now for January session: www.behaviorworks.org/htm/lla_info...

This is something that our culture doesn’t teach us about dog training, or behavior in general: You do not have to set up problem behavior to occur in order to then do something about it. Instead, you can: (1/6)

Found myself out on a walk through the woods with a smoothie that wasn’t mine 🤔 (This is Solstice and she is such a good girl!)
