The mark of a good trainer is that they are also a good learner. Not only do they never stop looking for new information but they observe their learner and allow that behavior to shape their own and then adapt their training plans to match. They don’t settle for “good enough” or “this has always worked before” or “if it’s not broke…”

There's a lot of really awesome stuff I get to experience as a dog trainer.

Watching a dog go from nervous bite risk to willingly and happily soliciting pets from myself/other staff is definitely in my top 5 favorite things. The wiggles, the leaning, the flopping over for actually wanting belly rubs. Chef's kiss!

I love taking the time to actually build a relationship with a dog and get them comfortable with me. It's so gratifying and touches me every time. I love dogs so much and seeing the investment in our relationship pay off gives me the warm fuzzies.

The most difficult part of training dogs is not the training part, it’s remembering how to talk to people. Generally speaking grown ass adults don’t take it very well when you say “good girl/boy” or even just “good” way too enthusiastically after they figure something out.

Today I spent time in the garden and in the forest, harvested fruits and made a wild flower bouquet 💐

I again played a card game with my parents and enjoyed a cozy Sunday in our cottage.

Food: 2 slices of bread with wild garlic cream cheese, 1 tarte flambée, 1 piece of grandma's cake, 2 bread rolls with cream cheese, one champignon filled with cream cheese (so much cream cheese)

Exercise: 13.097 steps, 50 crunches, 50 leg raises, stretching & some yoga poses

Education: last Tuesday I reached out to two dog academies and asked if they would teach me to become a professional and certified dog trainer. One academy was already full, but the other answered today, and said that I will receive further information soon. I can't tell you how excited I am!

Besides becoming a professional dog trainer I also thought about getting a dog which will be trained to detect mold, vermins and other harmful substances in buildings and (historical) furniture (such as church pews) and / or to buy and renovate an old historical farm and open my own dog school and dog hotel there, since I'm already working in the field of protection and preservation of historical buildings.

Love: the current situation is not good at all and I suffer from severe heartache.

another hot take: prong collars, ecollars, slip leads, choke chains, etc are only abusive when used incorrectly and with the wrong dogs.

When correctly conditioned they are amazing tools for some dog-handler teams. Some dogs and dog breeds are more sensitive and these tools should not be used for them, but to dogs who are okay with them they are great and not harmful.

These tools are not made for abuse or punishment, they are for communication.

This trainer is kind and fun. 😊🐶

This is Jedda, daughter of my Mojo… and proof that dogs are their own little souls.

Mojo won’t go anywhere near the water, but Jedda? She lives for it.

Same family, totally different personality—and that’s the magic of dogs.

If you’ve ever wondered why one pup loves something their parent hates… you’re not alone. Every dog writes their own story.

Tap ❤️ if this made you smile.
