DOG SETTER AREA FOR THE BOYS
Hudson and Brantley having to listen and remember. They practice their sits and stays no matter what is going on around them. Setting up their home with all the new rules and boundries right from the beginning so mom can maintain control and they can continue to re learn and set their changed habits of behavior is very important.
Their dog setter area helps adjust their activity level. This gives them a chance to re-learn correct responses to their environment and gives "Mom" a chance to establish teaching control.
when eating their "breakfast", the boys have to stick to their own bowls.
Having to be very watchful "using" other client's dogs, the boys had to learn to mind their own business and not show aggression to any other dog, for any reason.
Hudson and Brantley have worked very hard to learn to "behave, pay attention, mind their own business, not insist on their own way, not to grab", and so much more. Both the boys are doing very well.
since one of the large problems with the boys was stealing food - we had "MOM" work with them learning "MINE NOT YOURS" excercise with livercheese - it was hard but they both did exceptionally well as shown in the two clips to the right.
