Just working on both of our bipedal ambulation, I can use all the help I can get Schwartz not so much. #dogtricks #bipedal #terrier #walkamongus #canine_circus_school #oakland #terriermix

Padawan possum in training. Checkout how Schwartz navigates these studs. #barkour #terrier #terriermix

Here’s a weird one, it’s a visual discrimination where the dog brings back the biggest coin first. Usually I do this in my office but I’m getting Schwartz used to doing it with some distractions. The first video I keep it simple to warm him up using only 2 coins per trial. On the second video (swipe) I use all four coins and reward at the end. Watch this minor miracle closely and make sure you are not swindled by the JB Bobo of dogs #canine_circus_school #terriermix #terrier #dogtricks #shapedretrieve #cointricks #caninecoinmagic #chabotstable #dogtraining

I’m making progress on Thundermint’s shaped retrieve (swipe for both videos). I changed the retrieve object from a shoelace to a string of pearls so as to begin instructing him in fine art of thievery. Students who have come to our Circus 3 class will notice I’m using the same steps that we use for the dogs. The image I have in my head is Thundermint taking the pearls from a jewelry display case cat burglar style. The creativity in training comes from figuring out how to use the same processes for different purposes. #cattraining #shapedretrieve #cattricks #canine_circus_school #witchescat #blackcat #thundermint #clickertraining

We had the archery range all to ourselves today. The fog was creeping through the trees and it was epic. The picture of Schwartz on the target I posed when we went to collect our arrows I just stuck the arrow there for the picture :) Schwartz is a good archery companion he stays safely on the bench and patiently waits and I train him every few rounds. #terrier #fog #archery #terriermix #oakland #schwartz

Doubled up on Asclepius, the plant family and the mythic healer who was tutored by the centaur Chiron. You can see the plant that Chiron is handing Asclepius looks alot like a milkweed. Swipe for close up. #asclepius #chiron #rainyday #milkweed #greekmythology
