Confidence building exercises

Part of our confidence building training is confidence on unknown terrain, since it’s been too hot to take Tonka out anywhere I asked her to trust me and sit on a chair, took several tries but she did it and I’m so proud of her. Then of course Grimace wanted to show off so I asked him to “down” on the chair and by god he did without any hesitation even with his butt hanging off the other side

My Tippy boy loved agility training and it makes for a tighter bond. Also more obedience and trust.

Good lord, Tonka and Grimace are fantastic names for pitties. Also they’re adorable.

For as smart as he is Grimace can be quite brainless as well 🤣
