Treats?
What soft, small high-reward treats are we using? Anything that doesnt require preparing or cutting up rolls? Lol

"Don't fight genetics... fulfil them."
My Beautiful little girl Ruby. Ruby is a 7yr old JRT and my personal Service dog. She found me when she was just under 1yr and we got straight to it! We make a lovely team, and this video is all about giving her what she needs to help me when I need her. Genetic Fulfilment in Action 🐾 Every dog was bred for a purpose, and when we tap into those natural instincts, we create happier, calmer, and more fulfilled dogs. Ruby is a Jack Russell Terrier, a breed developed to hunt, chase, grab, and problem solve. Rather than trying to suppress those instincts, we give them a healthy outlet. Using a flirt pole, satisfies her chase drive. Tug, fulfils her desire to grab and possess. Ball work channels her prey drive and energy. While obedience, teaches her how to switch on, switch off, and work as a team. When we meet a dog's genetic needs, we don't just tire them out—we fulfil them. A fulfilled dog is often easier to live with, more focused, and less likely to seek out unwanted ways to entertain themselves. 💚Don't fight genetics... fulfil them.🐶💚

@Matthew Marsh what activities do you suggest to best fulfill a border collie?
Peppa loves place too much 😆
Peppas doing really good at place because she loves being inside. Issue we are having is getting her off place and outside when asked. I only ask once and then when she doesnt move i end up having to physically move her. Feels a disappointing when the training ends with her feeling like shes done something wrong and sulks outside lol the house lead is good. Before using is wed have to get her from under the table :( . Would love her to be an inside dog but shes not really ready. Thoughts? Tips?

@Nath Morrison always a treat and some affection but she doesn't seem happy about it. Maybe a play would he a higher reward. Ill try it out.

Hi @Matthew Marsh weve just started day 1 of training, im wondering if the 'place" location be moved around the house? Our living room is really exciting to peppa compared to the kitchen where she is calmer. Is the living room something to build up to?
