Someone please tell me how I hybridized my dahlias. Also, is there a way to avoid doing it again? #dahliafarmer #dahliagarden #dahliahybrid #dahliaflower #flowerfarm #cutflowergarden #cutflowerfarm #flowergardener #flowerfarmer

I saw a few other cut flower gardeners/farmers use organza bags to protect their blooms from pests and wow does it work like a charm. I do still leave some unprotected for the pollinators, but those flowers end up looking deformed or mutilated by the time they’re ready to be picked. This has been a very easy, cost-effective way to preserve them! #cutflowergarden #cutflowersforbeginners #cutflowerfarm #flowerfarm #flowerfarmingdog #flowerfarmdog #dahliagarden #dahliafarm #organzabag #organzabags

The middle command is super easy to teach and can be a great tool for comfortably having your dog in public settings! Another thing worth noting: people are less likely to try to pet your dog if they’re in between your legs lol #dogtrainingtips #dogtrainingtricks #dogtricks #dogtrainer #dogmomlife #dogowner #middlecommand #australianshepherd #aussie #DogTraining

While Iris no longer does daycare, it was so fun seeing which breeds she gravitated towards for play partners when she was younger :) Please note: after 6 years of working in the daycare setting, I do not recommend most dog daycares. #doggydaycare #dogdaycare #dogfriends #dogfriendship #dogsocialization #dogsplaying #herdingbreeds #huskytalking #dogmom #dogowner

Practicing a fireman’s carry with Iris! I’m hopeful we’ll never need this, but I know it doesn’t hurt to practice it. We’ve got a long ways to go before we can pull this off on a trail! #dogrescue #dogsafetytips #dogsafety #hikingwithdogs #travelingwithdogs #emergencydog #emergencydogrescue #DogTraining #dogowner #dogmom

Doing a little Sunday reset before the work week starts. This isn’t our full cleaning routine, but happy to share that too :) #dogcleaning #dogcleaningtips #dogcleaninghacks #dogmom #dogowner #dogshedding #doghair #messydog #sundayreset

It can be really tough traveling with a dog who isn’t enthusiastic about meeting the people who want to meet her. Iris loves her close circle of people and takes some time to get comfortable, so it’s not fair to allow new people to invade her space. I’ve found that offering up these tricks gives her brain a little workout and can still make people smile :) #dogtricks #dogtrick #speakcommand #wavetrick #dogwaving #antisocialdog #shydogs #travelingwithdogs #dogsinpublic #dogmomlife

Replying to @MissAiko Kind of a fancy lil combo if you ask me #DogTraining #dogtreats #dogtreatpouch #treatpouch #dogtrainer #dogmomhack #dogmom #dogwalking #dogtip

Replying to @A Daam Broad feeding frozen raw vs freeze dried raw when traveling! Freeze dried is so much easier to pack and significantly lighter. I know a lot of dogs struggle with eating on the road (Iris used to), but having a high quality food can be a game changer for that.

I tried to pack *lightly* this go-around and only brought the essentials. Here’s my packing list for weekends away! #travelingwithdogs #hikingwithdogs #travelingdog #dogsthattravel #packingfordogs #roadtripwithdogs #dogmom #dognecessities #dogsafetytips

Putting together a lil pheasant wing bumper to get Elwood more dialed in on his scent trails! I’m not a professional or seasoned bird dog trainer, so don’t take any of what I’m doing too seriously :) excited for the season! #birddog #germanshorthairpointer #gsp #gspoftiktok #pheasanthunting #pheasanthuntingdog #pheasanthuntingseason #birddogtraining #pheasantdog

Come along for our first solo camping trip in Door County! It’s always easiest to camp with another person when you have a dog/dogs, but this weekend was pretty effortless (mostly thanks to the comfortable weather). Can’t wait for our next trip #doorcounty #doorcountywi #campingwithdogs #solocamping #australianshepherd #dogmom #dogcampingtips #dogcampinggear #dogroadtrip #adventuredogs

If you’re struggling with a dog who eats poop, has poor gut health, or isn’t super food motivated, I can’t recommend tripe enough! Iris has been getting tripe in her meals for 2 years now, which is how long it’s been since she was last sick with giardia. I haven’t had to do supplements on top of tripe for Iris because it does it all. :) #tripe #beeftripe #tripefordogs #dogprobiotic #dogguthealth #poopeatingdog #dogsupplements #doghealth #giardiadogs #sickdog #dogparasites #dogparasite #giardia
