#training session
Pickle continues to do well, and she is not liking her training retirement much yet lol - she sees me training the other rats and she stares daggers at me for not giving her a turn! I’m giving her yummy treats to compensate though, and she’s enjoying several hours of free-range & foraging daily ❤
As for this clip, I took this back in February when I was teaching Pickle and Egg to wave - this was a clip from Pickles very first time training the wave trick, and she got it so quickly!

Owners have asked what kinds of things I incorporate into training sessions. I tailor it to the candidate/slave while focusing on a few major areas for each. I usually devote a portion to overall obedience, learning, and sexual training. Every session ends with aftercare, no matter her performance as long as she gave effort.
Here are some notes from the first part of a training session with a candidate:
Learning
- Positions
- Perceptions of past vanilla life
- Up means now
- Use of shock collar and crop
- Writing and divulging everything
Positions - A good way to get the candidate responsive; allows her to be ready for use intermittently when I feel like fucking throughout. It’s a good warm-up and I can see when she’s beginning to obey without questioning.
Perceptions of past vanilla life - Allows me to learn which areas, misconceptions we need to work through
Up means now - candidate has shown a lack of urgency, so this was needed early on in order to properly finish the training session as well as enforce obedience afterward
Writing and divulging everything - I give writing assignments frequently outside of training sessions, but I like the stress applied to her mind when she’s trying to fulfill a written assignment while going through the rigors of a training session. I will use these throughout (seemingly random to her) to judge her progress as well as decline into what I like to term “sex zombie”-ness
As a note, she doesn’t know “Oh, we are in the ‘up means now’ part of training.” she doesn’t know what she will do. Everything blends into another, and there is never a section which can be confused as rest or relaxation. Some parts last the whole session (for instance, if quickness to obey is an area in which she needs work this will be tested throughout the session), while others have a definite start-stop. I like to make sure I have a training plan before going in so it is never generic and the result for investing my time is a better girl.
