Recently I finished up the private training with my Nyx. Now it is up to me to make sure she does not stop making progress.

I do not care what kind of training your dog gets exposed to. What I deeply care about is that all dog owners don’t stop the effort. This goes for me and my Nyx as well.

I keep up the mini-training I do every day. It helps to make all she learned “stick”. She does so well with all the new commands and our relationship is even closer now. When I put her in the sit-down, walk away, and make her wait until I am back, give her the release word … oh my gosh, that attention she gives to me while waiting makes my heart melt, seriously. She is so much calmer because she learns that she can rely on me.

Every repetition makes all that stronger. If you want the same do not stop the training. Some things are harder to teach and take longer to make a deep imprint on your baby. The sessions do not have to be long. Just 10 minutes can do the trick. I also integrated some exercises into our walk, and she does beautifully with the execution of it. Every little success counts towards the bigger goal you have with your pup.
