BLOGGING A TO Z CHALLENGE
Henry LOVES agility
How do you connect with your dog? What reward methods do you use? Does your dog respond to treats, toys, praise?
Henry and I love our agility nights – fun for us both. Henry has a blast running through tunnels and jumping obstacles. He is treat obsessed driven followed by praise and lastly, toys. Henry’s sister Reese, on the other hand, loves her toys.
Whatever their preference, one aspect of positive reinforcement training is praise and encouragement. BRAVO!
A bit late on this one, and it’s only day two of the challenge! Oops.
Please check back tomorrow for CHARLIE (I’ll have the post up early – promise).
Another gorgeous painting 🙂 Dogs do seem to love treats and toys. Great reinforcements 🙂
Have a great weekend!

Thank you. Yes, rewards go a very long way in training.
What a cute picture! Our dog responds to treats for sure!

Thank you. That’s my Henry in the portrait – he does his agility run and comes right to me for his treat/reward lol
Bravo!
I had Miniature Schnauzers and Shih Tzu growing up, they loved their treats and rawhide bones.
At the moment we only have a pair of cats as our yard and the busyness of life mean we really can’t take proper care of a dog.
Love the post, I look forward to the rest of the A-Z here.

Thank you Laith. Responsible people know and admit when they are not in a position to care for pets.
Praise goes a long way in my household, but treats are even better of course! I hope you enjoy the A to Z!
