Hickory Dickory Dog

Short gal leash length comparison 💁🏻‍♀️ 🖤 4ft is my go to for everyday walks (colour obsidian and terracotta) 🌲5ft gives my dog a bit more freedom (colour cedar and terracotta) 🤎 6ft feels like a mini longline and perfectly transforms into a 3ft with a handsfree adapter (colour espresso and terracotta) Which leash length do you use? All of my leashes are from @shopstrangetails!

How I Taught Hickory to HOLD an Object 🐶   Teaching Hickory to hold an object was probably our hardest trick to date, taking over five months of work. There were many times I wanted to give up, but we stuck with it and finally nailed it!   I definitely learned some things along the way. Hickory only wanted to work with his toys. Jumping straight into HOLD was challenging, but once we introduced the cue TAKE IT, HOLD became much easier. Adding a visual cue by raising my finger also helped Hickory understand that he needs to hold the object as long as my finger is up.   I hope our experience helps you teach your pup how to “Hold” an object. Let us know how it goes! @voilapets training pouch - use code HICKORY 🫶🏼   #ducktoller #toller #dogtraining #puppytraining #hold #newtrick #dogtricks #dogsofinstagram #dogtrainingtips #dogtrainingisfun

I’ve been feeding a mix of raw, freeze-dried raw, and kibble since the day we brought Hickory home! I think the rotation and variety of food has actually helped him with food sensitivities and his digestive system. We’ve always loved @openfarmpet RawMix 🫶🏼 If you’d like to give it a try you can use our coupon code HICKORYDICKORY _ @shopdogged slow feeder #openfarmpartner #openfarmpet #healthydogfood #ducktoller #slowfeeder #siliconeslowfeeder #rawdogfood #freezedriedraw

Our little paddleboarding trip last week to beat the heat ☀️    Hickory met a loon and started to jump in the water on his own! Big steps for this water dog. He was a little timid jumping last summer so its exciting to see his confidence grow!   Note to self - bring something to throw other than dog dad’s flip flip next time 🙃 _ @shopstrangetails leash and collar - HICKORY @voilapets treat pouch - HICKORY @kahunapaddleboards #ducktoller #paddleboarding #doghowl #waterdog #vlog #dogvlog #kahunapaddleboards

Howling for his new friend the Loon! Very surprised he didn’t try to jump off the paddle board to go after him 😅   @shopstrangetails | Biothane leash and collar - HICKORY #ducktoller #dogshowling #doghowl #dogsofinstagram #toller

If a package arrives at our house there’s a 99.9% chance it’s for Hickory! 📦 🐶   Spoiled again with more @purebites treats. ✨ Hickory stocked up on some of his favourites - duck tenders, beef jerky and pure turkey. He also wanted to try some new treats - pure ocean whitefish and cod skin jerky.   Thanks PureBites - Hickory will not be sharing his treats (he’s greedy)   #ducktoller #toller #purebites #gifted #purebitesambassador #limitedingredient #singleprotein #healthydogtreats #dogtreats #unboxing #puppyunboxing #dogunboxing

I see the light at the end of the tunnel!!! 😭⭐️ Something clicked today for Hickory! We have been working on HOLD for 5 months now and I’m so glad I didn’t abandon it. He’s getting it.. slowly… but I can see he’s getting it. I switched things up today by working in a TAKE IT which I often say casually when giving him treats so thought I would try it. I also started to put my finger up as a visual WAIT cue. Once he becomes more consistent I’ll start adding the word HOLD but baby steps. #dogtraining #learnwithus #ducktoller #progressnotperfection #puppytrainingtips

Invest in me. I’m a good boy. #sharktank #hellosharks #goodboy #ducktoller #dogsofinstagram #trendingreels #dogcomedy

How we taught CLEAN UP This was a fun one and surprisingly easy to teach. It’s probably my favourite “trick” because he can pick up his own stuff now 🙃 #dogtricks #ducktoller #puppytraining #cleanup #dogcleanup #dogschool #teachyourdog #dogtraining #howto

Scrunchie training?? That’s a new one 😅 We are working on Hickory not stealing scrunchies out of my hair and not attacking my ponytail. Something I didn’t think I’d have to train when getting my first dog. Hopefully we will get to an implied leave it when he’s out of his teenage phase! #dogtraining #xxlscrunchie #ilovescrunchies #puppytraining #teenagedog #ducktoller #toller #openfarm #openfarmpartner

Ekkkk! It’s here 🖤 Our @shopstrangetails order just arrived and we love everything! Obsessed.
