A bit Rally-Obedience training with Sammy, nearly 18°C and sun - a dream.
Yesterdays training went okay, I was tired and Sammy was "on fire".
I am always so happy to see that he enjoys our training too.
We walked the parcour 2 times and Sammy really did so good.
My signals were a bit slow and not clear so he thought one time he need to change his side behind me at the beginning (it was supposed to be over the front).
And in the second walk (same sign) I did a signal mistake.
I talled him to come and sit but did the hand sign for a spin (dumb brain).
So he thought about to spin but stopped because he listens to my vocal commands too and sat down.
I am happy that I was filmed so I saw he was moving when he was in the stay command and I walked away.
Lets just say: thank you Sammy for always being an amazing good boy.
He saves us so often, especially at competitions because my brain is on vacation.
agility training at its best,😆😆#dog #thinkingdogpublishing #papillons #papillonsoftiktok #agility #dogsport https://www.instagram.com/p/CpbdLvkI3yo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Want a pet portrait done? My commissions are open!
I figured out a new technique with my watercolor brushes to make more realistic short/fine hairs. I am absolutely in love with this painting, I think it may be my best so far.
About my process:
So usually I’d use a cut up acrylic brush to get an uneven/jagged texture that creates strokes resembling when used to paint. This is great with long haired animals if they have flowing hair. With short haired dogs it doesn’t work as well because of the hundreds (thousands?) of tiny little strokes required to get the texture right. This time I used an actual watercolor brush (a smaller round brush) and would flick any excess water off so it was mostly dry (but with pigment) and splayed out kind of wildly (more or less depending on how sparse or heavy/dark I needed the hair to be in each area) I primarily used a Windsor & Newton Series-7 size 3 (finest sable). The paper is 9x12. Adjust your brush sizing accordingly. I used a white gel pen for corrections. Often it’s too bright for a particular area on a darker dog so I’ll often rub it in with my fingers to soften the contrast!

Dogsports for puppyplay!!! Showpuppies being put on tables and walked around to judges to be examined on their coat, posture, holes, breedability, etc. Obedience and rally pups being walked around by their trainer doing fun tricks and being tested on their endurance. Agility puppies running around courses (maybe trying to keep a plug in). Flyball puppies running on a team to try and catch a ball or a toy. Nosework puppies smelling around to find fun treats. Herding trial puppies herding cowgirls/boys/people into their milking and breeding stations. There’s so many options!!!!!!
I feel like nobody knows this exists.... it's awful.... I love it so much...
if you buy one the proceeds go directly to me adding a coffee bar in the training room dsjskfhsdg
