Wow... I am truly lucky to have such a smart, patient and LOVING #dog ! His muzzle training is making huge leaps these past couple days: first, he happily places his little snoot in the muzzle so it can be snapped on without encouragement or without me asking him too. Secondly, he will leave it alone for longer periods of time, and requires less treat distraction than last week. Third... well as you can see, he is taking that all of that to our outside practice! I’m so proud of him and I’m so grateful that he wants to learn and that he is ALWAYS eager to do training exercises and he ALWAYS makes it a positive and fulfilling experience. 💗 #rescuedogs may have their issues/anxiety/reactive behavior from their past, but it doesn’t mean that their future has to be the same. With love, patience, understanding, CONSISTENT and positive training, and most importantly and open heart, a rescue dog with issues can turn into the most amazing dog you have ever seen... and almost all of them prove this. ❤️ #adoptdontshop and if you introduce #positivetraining and stay OPEN and LISTEN to your dogs needs, you and your dogs world will expand more than you can possibly imagine. 💗🐶🌎 #positivemuzzletraining #themuzzleupproject #muzzleupproject #staffiesofinstagram #staffygram #rescuestaffy #dogtraining #whatadogboomer #positivereinforcement #trainingprogress #whatagooddog (at Eugene, Oregon)
