An Aussie that is locked in o you and has a motivation, can be taught anything. My dog’s motivation was “ball”. Throwing something for her to fetch was her reward.

I thought I had a bunch of videos of Ree on youtube - but couldn't find them. Maybe they are lost on FB (I don't go there any more). BUT - I did find them and just uploaded a few so here you go!

YALL oh my gosh I am so insanely pleased with my puppy. We introduced her to the goats this morning to test her recall and focus, I sent her after the goats and let her get abt 50yds away before saying “Aspen HEEL” she was running full speed but she turned on a dime, made a beeline for me, immediately sat at my heel and looked up at me like “ok mama, what next?” I’m so in love with my beautiful smart girl, I can’t wait to see what she’s capable of!!!
This was all off-leash btw

I do still have them, all are doing well except the newest mare, Gracie. She got her leg caught in the barb wire and had a serious injury on her back hock and below her hock. She’s healing tho so that’s good, I panicked at first but was told by several ppl who’s horses has had had much worse injury in the same spot that they get over it quickly, and heal just fine as long as you’re attentive to it

Now is the perfect time for simple training that will be the foundation for everything!! WTG.
Next is a stop - while working stop or stay. Recall and stop are your biggest tools. You’re doing fantastic!

Gracie the mare's leg is looking so much better I believe I'll have her back out to pasture by friday. Dakota will then come back to the house for a diet and some much-needed, distraction free, one-on-one training and riding.
