Had a dog this week who failed eval day bc she was too scared to play or enter the lodge. She's a (90lbs) angel otherwise.

Comes to class bc she needs to get comfortable with the facility and is too scared for day stays. Drags mom across the room, hackles up. Absolute mess.

Turns out. When they are not at our facility (that band prong collars in classes) they use... a different collar. And yank it when this sweet dog isn't perfect.

WOW I WONDER WHE SHE WAS TERRFIED. ITS ALMOST AS THO ANY TIME SHE MAKES THE WRONG CHOICE. SHE EXPERIENCES PAIN. HM.

Now there's a new issue. This dog is used to pain, so she's obsessed with being perfect and afraid to fail. So she's an angel. When she gets comfortable at the facility, when she realizes there isn't pain the way we treat her, she's going to act out (did i mention shes 90 pounds of bully). Because the prong collar didn't teach her correct behavior, it taught her to fear bad behavior.

Anyway all a prong collar does is tell me that you aren't in control of your dog.

Since we've started barn hunt, I've been hiding his dental chew for him every morning to give him a "hunt" at home. It's getting harder and harder to fool him in the house, so I tried hiding it in the field at the power lines. It was really cool to watch him follow the same steps I walked with his nose to the ground.

my main reasoning for timeskip!silv having long hair is for the sole purpose of dragon baby storage

the modern pokeworld’s medusa if you will

#kagarts #rival silver #trainer lyra #pokemon hgss #this would count as like. silver’s bag/storage in a way if he doesn’t have his big pocket jacket from gsc #I think hammerspace hair is one of my favorite tropes #learned a neat trick from iris when he’s training to become a dragon tamer #lyra spoils the little noodles a lot so they can smell when she’s brought em treats #but when lyra makes him a guest speaker for a class she teaches it definitely draws their attention #think it’d be the nicer turnout that he’s really good with kids #the dratini will eventually miss being portable once they evolve #picturing several ​dragonair burrowing their heads in his hair on chillier days

ecruteak city's newest kimono girl, suzuka! extremely obsessed with the idea of lyra becoming a kimono girl post-hgss so i doodled her with the eevee she starts training, manami.

#fun fact : maiko usually take on stage names once they debut so lyra goes by suzuka while she's working #there's a continuation of this hc where she becomes ecruteak's new fairy type gym leader after morty joins johto's newly formed elite 4 #but that's once she becomes a geiko so she's independent from the kimono girls at that point #also typically maiko have black hair but since she's training an eevee i think lyra can get away with keeping her brown hair color #i need to sit and ruminate on johto some more... probably need to restart my playthrough too... #pokemon #pokemon heartgold and soulsilver #pkmn hgss #pokemon lyra #trainer lyra #eevee #hc : (pkmn) mjverse #hc : (mjv) johto #chara : lyra suzuki #🎨 : mj draws

We tried to get Bee to run Lure Course at a work event. He has no prey drive. He ate grass instead.

It's SO fun to see all the differences between training all three of my animals.

Koi needs me to be clear, and she needs me to be quick, or she will get frustrated and might swat at me or walk away. If I keep a high rate of reinforcement and give her clarity she is golden. She's very very food motivated, but she's not in it for the work and doesn't really care about my approval (though if I corrected her she'd probably never talk to me again). She's hesitant to try, sometimes, so it's important to split smaller with her, but she's thoughtful by nature. Once she gets it she gets it. She will happily trade her services for food in the future.

Goldfish is challenging to train when it comes to the tricks I taught Koi, because he gets so worked up trying to Do Thing for Food that his brain overheats practically immediately. We have done a lot of work regarding "do not grab the treat hand with your terrible little claws and try to chew through my fingers" when it comes to taking treats. If his paw leaves the ground the treats go back to start.

He's getting much better about it mugging me for food, as Koi did with training, but now bites the treat out of my hand so aggressively you can hear the snap. It cracks me up. And apparently when doing fake cat agility he jumps up to try to bite and grab the treat from my hand. Ive only tried this one, and have planned several things to set us up for succes going foward, but found it funny he's doing the feline equivalent of overexcited dogs nipping and jumping up.

Prompt 116

Give Battinson robins but it’s DCxDP style with ghosts. 

His kids are… technically not from his world and technically not alive either, but that doesn’t stop him from adopting them. Even if he wasn’t aware of them being literal ghosts for the first few hours of encountering them. 

How did they get here? Well, you see, sometimes child ghosts will run into each other, and they’ll form their own little friend groups. Or family groups. Especially if they lack a guardian. Who would tell them not to mess with natural portals. 

Or to kidnap a phantom to play with them, but hey he’s enjoying himself too and has a puppy! The bestest boy!

Bruce was not prepared for some sort of energy-thing to open and spit out a good half a dozen children. Nor was he prepared for these children to all have powers, or for another child (thankfully a teen) to fall into the cave a few weeks later. 

#dcxdp #dpxdc #battinson #prompts #Dick died alongside his parents when the line snapped #Barbara died to the mob when her father refused to be bribed #Jason died out in the cold on the streets after surviving for a year #Cass died after escaping her father- training for killing doesn’t always translate to training for survival #Tim died from neglect alone in his parents’ home while it was covered up #Steph died before her mother tried to get help with her addictions #Duke died from an attack in the narrows #Damian died from a ‘trainer’ who wanted revenge against Talia & Ras #Danny was searching for his ghost friends with Cujo's help but tripped #It all worked out though #Bruce sobbing to Alfred: Why are there so many hurt children #Bruce grabbing all of them including Danny: My children now #He gets horrifyingly good at picking up stealth what with his kids being literal ghosts #Gets a bit of a mom sense for whenever they're doing something they shouldn't #Some idiot: I shall kill the Robins! #Batman: #Y'know what the robins deserve star cores #with big bro space core danny #god can you imagine if battinson became liminal lol

Okay but this is my favorite Hiccstrid art of all time. By @toerning on Deviantart and here on Tumblr!

Because you know— you know— this is what happened between “you brought him back alive” followed by the swell of the music, and Hiccup waking up in his house.

Piece is titled “Well, most of him”

I will never understand some dog trainers aversion to just not allowing a dog that guards resources from other dogs to interact with other dogs when having that resource. it's just so simple. or like. just closing a gate or door.

#dogblr #dog training #dog behavior #'my dog resource guards her food from my other dog' #GOTTA KEEP EM SEPARATED #'my dog resource guards toys!' #allow your dog to have their toys in an area where they can't be bothered #even the 'my dog eats cat poop!' #don't allow your dog access to cat poop then. #like. it's easy. so easy. #let's see how you like it when i put my hand all over YOUR dinner #yeah that's what i thought #sorry tik tok/reels dog trainers have got me LIVID today
