Went to a pet friendly store yesterday to let Sjiriki pick out a toy for his birthday (which I can’t believe is this weekend already!!) and since he seemed up for it we did a little bit of training as well 😊 We’ve not done much in the form of training for quite a while, especially not in public, so we kept things really simple. We practiced the counting game, the ping pong game, a few hand targets, and moving together. He did so good!

Canihiking with the best boy 😊 We’ve recently introduced a new cue for moving to the left side of the trail and he picked it up so fast! I introduced it at the start of a hike, and he pretty much had it down by the end. He’s such a smart baby 🥰

Started doing some muzzle training with Sjiriki yesterday 😊 He picked it up so fast, already pushing his nose in after the first session! I do need to get him a bigger muzzle I think, as this one seems just a bit too narrow around his cheeks. But it’s fine for now as a training prop!

ID 2: the husky pushing his nose into the muzzle to get a cookie through the treat hole.

We’re back from the US Pony Clubs Convention, and Vinnie the Via Nova School Pony has gained star status amongst the cognoscenti. Here’s a link https://youtu.be/CD2gWY-bIIo to the full video that shows Vinnie’s transformation from Evil Pony who won’t trot no matter how hard you kick, to a pony who can’t wait to trot when he gets the cue. Cheer along with the Pony Clubbers as Vinnie reforms, and learn some of the basics of using #positiveReinforcementTraining with #horses along the way!
