Ilya, a middle-aged white man, sits on a couch with dog Trixie and four-year-old kid. Ilya and kid are looking at a computer.
Kid wants to play light sabers near dog?
In my latest post, I offer scripts to keep both safe.
Tl;dr: Keep kiddo swordplay far away from the dog!

Wait for it..Trixie counter-surfing for sushi salmon! Even on prescribed meds for fireworks, Trixie doesn't miss a beat! The salmon was for her too but I'd been giving her tiny pieces one by one when she heard fireworks. I'd stepped away to make her a lick mat. #rplus #dogdad #forcefree #dogtrainer

I used to but haven't recently. Thanks for flagging. This sure is a time when they have some big decisions to make / stands to take or not.

@leekell.bsky.social looks on the tracker like some folks picked those up! I was trying to think who I knew there but came up empty.

On the left, a picture of four rocks balanced on top of each other, with the ocean in the background. Below is a green checkmark and the word "true". On the right, a picture of a prong collar: metal links with spikes facing inwards. Below the image is a red X and the word "false".
"Balanced" dog training is anything but! There is nothing true or good about "balanced" dog training. "Balanced" is just a misleading word for using fear and pain on your dog.
I believe in compassionate dog training. Kind, science-based dog training uses stuff dogs *like* to change behavior.

When we train force-free, we make it comfy as possible! Trixie lay down in an elbow mac curve which didn't look super comfy. So I lured her to straighten out a lil. Then gave her my hand. Trixie chin rests to tell me she's cool with another rep of toothbrush training. #forcefree #rplus

When we do consent-based nail trim training… Trixie feels trusting enough to try to take *all* the chicken. Makes me happy. Does your dog do anything “naughty” you love to see? #rplus #dogsofbluesky #forcefree #dogtrainer #dogdad
