Lady G “A training story” Day 5
I am typing 1 handed Lady G got me on the right arm….it was my fault..i got too comfortable with her and started trimming her back nails, she felt a little uncomfortable and bit my right arm…it is not the pain of the sharpness of her teeth it was the pressure of her jaws….sucks…but thats why i make the big bucks LOL
Lady G is coming along..i am going to start treating her biting me as more of a “lack of proper coping skills” issue instead of a aggression issue…with this I am more in touch with Lady G’s triggers and feelings..i always no when she is going to bite me, (her HUGE teeth are coming at me) LOL
I might be in pain tonight but I have good thoughts about Lady G. It has been 5 days and I have concerns about how long it is taken too her to acclimate to me. She is a very nervous dog and deals with it with her mouth..I am being very patient with her and numerous times during the day I am doing motivational work with her in order to start to see things a different way…you cannot change 5 years of past behavior in 5 days…so I plug away…i am having fun…she smiles numerous times during the day…she is happy on her walks..she allows me to pet her, to stroke her..to groom her…we have good times and bad…yes I am a dog trainer..but it is bigger than that…i am saving her life and trying to make Lady G the best that she can be
