Congratulations Ford for graduating Give a Sit’s Puppy Prep! 👏👏👏 You’re one smart cookie whose intelligence is out of this world. Your guardians have put a lot into you, patience, love and quality sniffing opportunities. What more could an adolescent dog want! #dogsofbluesky

Hello @dogsofbluesky I have been away from the socials for a sad reason. My girl Gracie was diagnosed with Lymphoma. I’m feeling much better talking about this and turning it into a learning opportunity. Stay posted for some uplifting and educational video content.

Drop It with food? YES! With practice using toys, consistency and lots of positive reinforcement, we have gotten to this point. Good girl Bandit. #dogsofbluesky #dogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining #forcefreedogtraining

One of the best feelings as a trainer is the feeling your client understands what their dog is saying with body language. This clip, although uneventful, I am soooo proud of. #dogsofbluesky #dogtraining #forcefreedogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining

I am open to commissions to draw pets, all profits will go to vaccinate, neuter and find homes for stray cats/dogs.
As little as 20 bucks can make a big difference for their quality of life

After building confidence on the platforms, Havoc was a champ going up onto the slat-mill. Small steps take less time than forcing a dog and builds trust so the dogs can have a fun time running on the Slat-mill. #dogsofbluesky #forcefreedogtraining #dogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining

Sometimes teaching the skill “drop” is hard because the dog doesn’t preform the behavior “take”. For this we had to try out different toys Yogi would like to mouth at. Flirt pole to the rescue! #dogsofbluesky #forcefreedogtraining #dogtraining #positivereinforcementdogtraining
