Tessa’s newest trick – clicker games [video]

Here is a short film of Tessa’s newest trick, go into the box and dig. I call it “Bath time” because she gets baths in this tub and she usually digs in the water. I know that it is a weird cue, but I had to come up with one on the spot and I didn’t want to use “dig”.

Tessa came up with this trick when we were playing clicker games. Clicker games teach your dog to be creative in the behaviors that they come up with. This trick was all her idea!

I will soon be making a tutorial of how to play clicker games with your dog.

Fun and recalls [video]

Here is a movie of me practicing recalls with Tessa as well as other fun things that we do up on the hill. Socks, the cat, likes to follow us and watch Tessa. Socks doesn’t like walking on grass, so she either jumps from rock to rock, or sits in one spot until we have gotten far away from her and then, she comes running up to us as fast as she can.
