Hey DoggyU Community! 

So I finally got the public tips video edited (out Wednesday here, and publicly on Thursday) which means i can FINALLY start the medication retrieve training series! Thanks for your patience! 

This video is just a recap of the way the plan has changed as well as the general outline of the original plan (in case you want to train both the reminder and the retrieve) as well as the new/retrieve plan which I will be working on going forward. 

I'll be releasing one or two videos of my full training sessions per week depending on what else I have scheduled that week. 

I hope you enjoy the train-along, and a reminder that nobody is perfect. I make lots of mistakes and there's times I could have done things better, especially during this period in my life. In the videos I'll talk about those things so that you can hopefully learn from those mistakes. 

The wonderful thing about dogs is that they are so darn good at forgiving our mistakes, picking out what's relevant, and showing us grace. We humans are lucky to have them! <3

I often forget my meds to. I do a 7 day dispenser and keep it in a place she can reach it. I think maybe if she can wake me with a paw, I would only need to remember to set the alarm before going to sleep. if I am sleeping she wakes me up pawing that would be good also. I would also like the retrieve "trick" for dropped items.

I definitely have my alarm set to "daily" for this one so that i never have to remember to set it!

This is super helpful. I have a system to remember meds, but have other more complex tasks I want to introduce and this gives me a great methodology. Thanks.

Thanks Eli! I think learning how to think through a problem/behavior is at the root of being able to accomplish it! Glad it was helpful.

This was VERY helpful. I think what was particularly helpful is thinking about what it is you actually need. I tend to ignore the alarm or, you know I'm busy, and I don't get to it. Also building a retrieve would be helpful. She has a retreive for toys she likes. But Corgis are not Labs. :)

So glad you found it helpful! The fact that your dog is a Corgi should not limit their ability to retrieve. While it is easier to teach a natural retrieving breed to retrieve, you'll notice that both my dogs are not labs and the older cattle dog had no experience with training (or even play!) when I got him as a two year old. Shaping a retrieve is possible with any breed, it's just a skill that takes longer for some dogs. Don't limit yourself ;)

I truly love how you think this through. A lot of owners and even trainers don’t worry about frustrating the dog. I love that you do take this into consideration. It made me laugh too, because I am right now in the same boat. I keep not taking my mid days meds and since they mid day I was worried about same things you considered here. My location with my SD in the car.

I think a button *would* work in this scenario if you crate. If you don’t crate, a chin rest to should could work depending on the size of the dog if they are buckled in behind you.
