This is daily. Her "let's do something!" I can shut it down, yes. But it makes her happy to just get a semi-zoomies on me & my feet, so lots of the time I just let her. She holds my feet/shoes, she is not biting. This is love, y'all. In a boisterous Asha kind of way.

The funny rituals we have! A game understood by just the two of you! This is one of the reasons I've become such a Dobe addict!

I’m sure if you were outside she would be turned up to 10. Add her ball, and the fact she understands pressure. I bet you’ve learned how to get her turned up really quickly? Haha
I’ve only learned this technique over the last 6 months. I step into her. Then touch her feet with my shoe while I have her in front. Withholding whatever it is she wants, really turns her on.
I think you and her seem to understand pressure quite well. Good job

She came at 10 weeks at full blast. I had to learn to turn her down! LOL.

Withholding whatever it is she wants, really turns her on.

Once I figured out how to use this, it became the easiest way to teach mine anything. Impulse control actually is the dope they want, after they get it the fight for it is over so now looses it's appeal, if that makes sense. A kid at Christmas - the excitement of not knowing what's coming contains the adrenaline. Getting what you want is exciting, but the adrenaline is gone.

This video is just goofy play. She is amped up because I chose to interact with her instead of telling her to settle. I don't have anything to offer her except just that. Letting her get as goofy as she wants, at age 4 she has learned not to spin out of control - that's why it's special to her now, I think. When she was younger and would do this she would get so wild I had to shut it down quickly. Now she can do this for 5 - 10 minutes and half the time she quits on her own.

I've taught Elroy to chase the squirrel off the feeder and Olive is catching on but this stupid one didn't want to get off and he wasn't sure what to do then. LOL

Oh, Kali would have had a field day! She just barks out the closed door and they run! Of course I've kind of programmed them that if they don't leave, the squirrel eating machine will be on their tail! So now when they hear her bark they're outta here!

I think she's trying to tell you to get those feet moving!

I never thought about that, but I think you're spot-on! She want's me to move my feet out the door to go play for real!

Some tree zoomies today. Excuse my Canadian accent that popped out at the end. LOL

Dog dreams

Dog dreams always make me grin! All those funny little squeaks and growls, and that huffing!

Dog dreams

I've never had a dog that has vocal dreams like Asha, nor as often. I always get a smile from this. Those cheeks puffing out!

Rubie about to show you the nimble feet part of the doberman.

And that's how Elroy learned to do his business in the flower garden under the eave last year. It killed most of the plants but I didn't care since he was being a good boy pottying outside.

And Moo is saying yipeee!

 

[Ravenbird]

OMG I laughed so hard at that. We had a dusting of snow yesterday and Asha wouldn't go out to pee for hours. Then did a dainty tip-toe on the wet ground.

Our tree topper is spring loaded, essentially, so it folds flat to put away. It kinda sprung itself off the top of tree and Moo was pleased as punch.

Oh, the "prancy prance, look what I have, isn't it so neat?!" Game. All my boys have loved that game
