Weekly Challenges starting Monday 29th June! To keep everyone active and training together, we’re kicking off weekly challenges in the community. Each week we’ll focus on one skill, with daily lessons already up in the classroom or posted in community. You can follow our process or your own plan. All you need to do is check in here each day, what you practiced, how it went, a quick video if you’ve got one. This isn’t just about your own dog’s progress though. Check in on how others are going too, drop a comment, cheer someone on, ask what’s working for them. That’s what keeps this community moving. Month’s prize: whoever’s top of the leaderboard at the end of the month gets a month of Scent Adventure (premium) free. You can keen an eye on it in leaderboard tab, the more active you are the higher you climb 😊 First weekly challenge — 7-Day Retrieve — starts Monday. Lessons are already in the classroom, just head in and get started. Comment below if you’re in.

Congratulations @Sally Argo our most active member this month! Hope you enjoy month free premium membership. We appreciate you! This community is only as good as what we all put in. Let’s bring more of that energy in July 🙌

Please take a moment and introduce yourself and your dog in comments: 1. Where are you from? 2. What is your current dog training experience? 3. What are your training goals and dreams? 4. Favorite thing about your dog? 5. And of course a pic of your furry bestie! 😍

Morning is our exercise and adventure time so went to the beach, practiced some recalls and took photos for my challenge. Lunch time chew for Frank while Oreo learns how to be a good boy. Recalls, middle, sides After work it’s challenge time! It was dark and I finished late but we got it done. This is the exact why we do these challenges. I 100% didn’t want to train late but I showed up. Both dogs loved it. Working on “hold” in heel position with Frank because I eventually want an option for heel and side finish with retrieves 😊 Just mucking around with Oreos retrieves. Food seems to override the toy drive at this stage. Let’s go everyone! Share your training 🙌

Long day for me today and my partner is home so it meant I didn’t get home at lunch time for training and no time left after my second job to train after work. I felt bad but I’m so glad I got some whistle recalls in the morning. I watched old video of Jo Rosie’s and I really like the concept she uses with pups/adolescents and all dogs really. Every day do something physical, emotional and mental with dogs. Until I tick off these boxes I know I’m doing ok. Physical- walk in the morning, Mental- recall training, Emotional- cuddles on the grass. I’ll attach the handout for anyone who might find it interesting 😊
