If you're going to use punishment in your training, at least be honest about it! #isaidwhatisaid #hottake

All dogs are hand strippable if you try hard enough

A 20min walk spent a few steps away from the house, is still 20m well spent.
If thats how she wants to spend the time, thats how we will spend it!

I have been trying to strip Fanta (wire haired dog) more frequently to try and get a more "proper" coat
Her coat is now starting to feel harsher and I get the feeling she is less oily! She has always been an extremely oily dog, so hopefully she is

Did you know? Most assistance dog organisations will not help me because I use haltis, slip leashes and martingales
Even though I use them purely for accessibility and safety, not for training!
They will not help handlers gain confidence without them or help them find other methods

Introducing the 4 dogs
Twiggy 3y Romanian feral dog, everything is on her terms
Fanta 2y giant schnauzer x lab, was my assistance dog until she quit. I am hoping we will be able to do sports, we at least enjoy dabbling at home!

Field time
Twiggy: doing her own thing, occasionally zoomies and biting me
Fanta: terrorising everyone she can, sniffing, occasionally
Pepsi: dropping her toy waiting for me to get close,then grabs it (occasionally includes my fingers, other times I get the pleasure of throwing it)
Pikelet: run

Pepsi has decided that she will absolutely not wear a harness! Which is wonderful for our goal of her being my guide dog... of course she is "not like the other dogs" so it isn't the usual just hates putting it on, no, she hates the girth strap...
