Since we added a new dog to our family in March we have been having even more fun with two dogs. Now that the weather is finally nice my kids and I have been getting the dogs outside to play every day. We are also working on training our new dog Ziggy so that he can be outside off the leash and play safely with our older dog Dodger. Pet safety is important when dogs are not on leashes, and well trained dogs are key.
We have about 3 acres of land and no fences, and we want our dogs to be able to be out in our yard without always being on a leash. They love going wading in our pond and exploring the woods with the kids. But in order to do this safely they need too learn to come when called. Dodger is very well trained, so now we are working on training Ziggy. Like most dogs he loves treats, and we have been using Nudges treats to help train him.
As I expected Duck Flavor was a big hit with both dogs. The treats are nice big jerky treats. Jerky treats are perfect for training, since it is easy to rip it into smaller pieces for rewarding Ziggy. Of course even though Dodger is already very well trained I still make sure he gets his share of Nudges!
The boys love to be outside together. Dodger stands guard watching for dangerous birds and bugs, while Ziggy tries to scare every frog he can find in the pond. Ziggy’s training is going well. Dodger is bigger and older, so Ziggy follows Dodger everywhere, which makes him relatively easy to train with. The positive reinforcement dog training with Nudges is one of his favorite parts of the day.
He is doing so well that this weekend the dogs were able to spend the afternoon outside with the whole family, chasing frogs and snakes at our pond. They wore themselves out playing in the sunshine while we all enjoyed the beautiful weather.
What a beautiful spot! I want to have a picnic there! And your dogs are beautiful too!
They look like they are having a blast!! Our guys love Nudges, too!
Your dogs look absolutely gorgeous! I wish our dog would go in the water like that! He is such a scardy cat! lol. We love nudges too; and so does our dog.
Glad your doggies love the treats!!! #client
Sounds like they really enjoy them, very convenient that they are offered at Walmart!
It looks like you and the dogs had a great day! I bet they were ready for that treat after all that exercise.
Such cute pups! They sure look like they had a great time. 🙂
I have to get sone Nudges for my pooch. They look like huge pepperoni pieces for dogs.
Awwww I love your dogs. And I’m surprised they actually took to the duck flavor. My friend’s pup refused anything duck!
i wish my dogs didn’t run off when i took them out. they do love treats though
You can tell just by looking at the treats that they are made with real meat and not tons of fillers, they actually LOOK like meat. Your pooches are so cute!
What cute dogs.
I have never heard of these but love that they are a natural treat. I will have to check out Walmart for them.
Can I bring our dog, Daisy over for training?? haha Love the photos of your dogs, and I’m glad they love the Nudges! #client
thank you for the photos , they are nice. I have a cat but would have dogs if I had propert and a home instead of an apartment. I miss my german shephard, been so very long ago.
