Sometimes it feels like someone is watching me!

Roux isn't always comfortable with new people and in new environments. Here we are playing our favorite Controlled Unleashed 1-2-3 Pattern Game to help her feel more comfortable around new people.

The puppies all turned 1 this month. I wonder how they are doing? Banshee spent the Fall exploring National Parks from Big Bend to Glacier. He loves to go for car rides and get special treats in the drive thru (He actually drools in anticipation). He excels at ”place” but still needs a little help with his behavior around other dogs when on leash. Let’s just say he really wants to play and has trouble containing that frustration and excitement. Other dogs don’t want to play with him and I don’t always blame them. He is a little rude but working on his manners.

They remembered each other and us:)

I asked Pickle's family if it was OK to share this video because it is beyond awesome! I am so proud of this team.
Pickles was a very fearful pup and luckily he was adopted by people that are willing to go at his pace.

Pickles is eating some yummy food from a food tube while seeing activity in the park.

Things Pickles has discovered he really likes: hiking, going to the park and playing with his dog friends.

Excellent way to help a fearful puppy! Remember what is considered scary is from the dog's perspective and not ours. It is impotent not to force interactions but rather give them time to process while pairing what is scary with good things.

Thank you Breanna Norris!
