I'm Keith! My 1st dog, Buddy Rhodes (a rescue; see avatar), forced me to learn training; I’ve successfully trained 100s(!) of dogs here in #NYC. The secret?: I train YOU to interact w/#Dogs the RIGHT way! POSITIVE BEHAVIORAL TRAINING— BuddyR.com/training

If your #DOGtrainer is working w/your dog but not you; it's a waste of💲; if they're not teaching positive reinforcement techniques, they're a waste of💲. If they're not explaining how YOUR behavior affects your #dog, you're wasting your💲💲. These are 3 basic tenets to remember.

THE GREAT BIG SANTA STORY by Keith Planit ’Twas Christmas time, when adults & children smiled a lot. Little did anyone know, being hatched was a fiendish plot. All were stirring, even that little mouse, Whilst others were planning in an abandoned warehouse. Three villains schemed, pure evil each one. Some reason in agreement that “Christmas is no fun!” Not far away, a happy family: On the door a wreath. In the warehouse: These men did plan grief. Not far away, two kiss beneath mistletoe. In the warehouse: “I’ve got the plan! Ho, Ho, Ho!” “Let’s be original about this!” The leader chimed. “We’ve seen it done wrong a million times!” “Er, how d’ we start? We go to da’ North Pole?” “Naw, we set a trap — make ’im fall down a hole!” “You’re both wrong, just listen to me! “If all goes well, Santa is ours on Christmas Eve.” So the bad men began to discuss their plan. While north, the elves wondered what's wrong with their favorite fat man: “He seems troubled, I saw a tear.” “He cried?! I've not seen that in a thousand years!” “The drumming bear did not make him laugh!” “Nor did these blocks, this book, or the dancing giraffe!” “It must be something devilish to give him pause!” “True, but what on Earth could scare one such as Santa Claus?!” So there he sat in his small, modest house. Santa stirring hot chocolate — and so was that mouse: “I’m not sure what exactly it is, my friend, but I know who is bad and these are bad, bad men!” “Santa!? All week you’ve stayed up late to brood.” But Santa ignored Mrs. Claus and grabbed some more food. “I feel something wrong that makes me fret.” “We go through this most every year; no one's beaten you yet!...” “By the way, I see the elves playing with the toys.” “OH, that’s okay, they test them for all the little girls and boys.”

Hello #DogsOfBluesky and #SkyDogs, introducing #MissBikoGirl, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier I found at my local shelter. A breeder took her puppies away and dumped her. Just...WHY??? Anyway, we are so happy we found her and love her to pieces already. ♥️

And now...your moment of zen...

(Um...but, before that, please: Don't let your #dogs swim in water without a doggy life jacket. I don't know how deep this water is, but if it's deep enough for them to go under, they need a jacket. I've seen/heard too many stories. That is all. Now... PLS ENJOY!👇)

IN THE PARK TODAY: Two people, both of which have NO control over their problem #dogs, were being PULLED toward one another by their dogs. One is on her phone (🤦‍♂️!!) the other sits on a bench to wrap her legs around her dog, who OF COURSE gets MORE anxious.

Please don't be those dog owners. Ever.

Cheshire kennels

I’m not going to sugar-coat this.
Meeko needs out of kennels – urgently 💔
He needs that one special home.
He hates the kennels and he's our most unhappiest dog.

Jackson Bird, a Golden Retriever, holds onto his ball with his front teeth, after nearly dropping it! A hand in the foreground is pulling the ball.

Quick tip: A regular cloth leash is better for #dogs that pull than a ROPE leash, which will more likely hurt your hands & leave you w/rope burns. Also, if u can't control your dog on leash, get a better leash/collar/harness combo (& probably hold the leash correctly).

#ThrowbackThursday-- Jackson Bird waited by the store window as I picked up groceries... when I grabbed his leash, THE BAG BROKE! I got everything into a new bag save for 1 thing that would NOT fit. Jack pointed his nose at it. I handed it over. The rest..is in the vid!
