  1. Hi Susan and Team 🙂 I just wanted to add a vote for yes please would love a podcast on how you shape behaviours such as competition obedience heelwork. Thank you!

  2. Yes oh please do a podcast on how you shape behaviours without luring..I have a 13 week BC just starting on her Obedience Journey.."Amelia Earhart"…aka Bluecaleb's Flying Forever..in memory of a groud breaking famous lady aviator.

  3. What are some balance break activities that bring more focus for the dog? My dog loves to tug, so this is what we do most of the time, but he tends to be super aroused and sometimes I feel like we need balance breaks that don't bring that arousal level even higher. Does she have a podcast or resource on this? TIA

  4. Have you done a podcast on 'pet safe wireless dog collar? I have no idea what this is, but I know it can't be good. This is not anywhere near your realm of education, but so many people I see on fb pages are asking for recommendations. Plus, sadly, I have a friend who uses one, but has it down to just saying 'beep' and the dog stops barking. Thank you.

  5. I have been doing targeting with my dog and works great. I can put my hand out, no verbal cue and he will touch with his nose. Using fly swatter now for nose touch and also paw touch for a longer distance “crawl”. My question is – do you have a verbal cue to distinguish between wanting the dog to paw vs nose touch the target ie fly swatter. I want to teach some other “tricks” but I can tell that I am not clear enough with my dog – he isn’t sure whether to touch with nose or paw. As you say “clarity is kindness” 😁😉

  6. I would love a video on shaping, I would rather use shaping to luring but my dog seems to get very confused and starts to offer random behaviours when I ask for a certain one, I know it’s probably something wrong with my mechanics but I don’t know what to do.

  7. I would also like to see a shaping video done without food as a lure. Would definitely like to use a targeting approach versus food lures, do you cover this in Recallers?

  8. I would like to know how to help a dog with major FOMO not just if I'm training another dog but with everything. She can clear a 5 foot fence if there is something going on that she thinks she should be involved in.

  9. I love this and I love all your YouTube’s you’re a wonderful trainer

    I know you have another dog, Border Collie that’s probably two years-old a black one
    are you not working her any more? I don’t see many videos with the black Border Collie in there anymore.
    I hope this is not a personal question I like the black one and I like this one also but I am a border collie owner and just wondered if you were still training the black one
    Hope okay to ask.
