As the weather has changed from deep snow and cold, it is now starting to warm up, the sun is shining, and all the snow is gone. I have set a goal for myself to be out working with the dog, daily. Most days, it is feasible and I am able to give Dahlia a 30 minute obedience workout. I have been using a positive reinforcement technique utilizing a clicker and treats. She responds very well to it and in a few short days, has come along way with all the training that I have provided her. She is very proficient with her sits, downs, heels, and stays. I need to incorporate the whistle into things but I am taking it slowly. I want to ensure that she will have a good foundation for her training!
