Dog Training Artists

Ron Watson & Apryl Lea are dog training artists. Apryl is a classically trained sculptor and Ron is an author, writer, and digital and web designer. She welds and he types. Go figure...

Pawsitive Vybe is part art gallery, part rescue organization, part dog training studio, and provides some of the best disc dog and dog sport instruction in the world.

What good is knowledge if it's hidden away?

We develop and share unique dog training knowledge with the world. All of this knowledge is freely available via our website. Our content is the foundation for all of our classes and camps, and it's freely available.  

We believe that having our content freely available makes people's lives better with their dogs and elevates the base level of knowledge in dog sports and dog training in general. 

But there are only so many hours in the day and creating content is a time consuming activity. One person can only create so much content. Become a patron of Pawsitive Vybe and ensure that this important stream of dog training consciousness keeps flowing and remains free to the general public.

Freedom to Tackle Large Projects

We have taken on a few large projects in the past few years: the PVybe Life/Pawsitive Vybe web series, the Art of K9Disc, the Tao of Disc Dog, Jam in a Flash, the newly revamped K9Disc.com, and a few that didn't quite pan out. These large projects are amazing to work on, but it's a little stressful working without a net.



New Books
On the agenda are a couple of new books by Ron Watson, Slacker Training, a fun look at shaping and capturing for a better working relationship with a dog that has both pet dog and dog sport applications and Disc Dog Alchemy, an "alchemical" look at disc dog freestyle. We are also developing a dog training graphic novel series and a couple of instructional "DVDs".

Podcasts & LiveStreaming
Ron has teamed up with Jack Fahle of UpDog fame and fortune on a disc dog podcast called 'sUpDog. There are also plans to do public and Patrons Only livestreams.


Large projects require time and money and two things almost all dog trainers are short on are time and money.
Become a patron of Pawsitive Vybe and provide some stability so we can move forward on large projects that can reach more people and create more cool dogs.
