hello dog . . .
This is little Max.
Max was one of the dogs rescued from a Tasmanian puppy farm and his life up until now has not been easy.
Max is very unsure of the world and is very suspicious, as we all would be if our lives had been spent the way this poor boys has.
Now Max has found himself the most wonderful home; he could not have found a more patient, calm and kind family if he tried!
Max and his family have some sessions with me that were donated by a lovely client of mine @julia 🥰
Our plan with Max is to build his confidence and show him that the world is safe and also fun.
Way to go Max, you’ve got this 🤩

Hello dog . . .
This is the gorgeous Willow who is a very rambunctious teenager 🤩
Today Willow learnt that sitting is a more profitable behaviour that jumping like a coiled spring 🤭
Willows fab family are also teaching her a new recall word so that when she hears her new word she comes RUNNING!!
Willow is a super keen student, I can’t wait to see how far this girl comes 🥰🦮

Hello dog . . .
Just look at clever little Miss Malli!
Learning that popping her bum down is far more rewarding than jumping on people at the front door.
Dogs do what works for them. If jumping up gets attention and fuss, even if that attention is telling them off, then they’ll repeat it!
Teach dogs what you do want them to do instead, and make sure all the humans do the same thing, otherwise it’s super confusing for your Dog!

Me: I’m going to make a professional dog video for my clients
Pickle: the heck you are! 😂
Things don’t always go to plan but at least we have fun 🤷🏻♀️🐾
TOP TIP - the more you giggle and squeal the worse it gets 😂😂

Hello dog. . .
This is @nala_the_black_labrador and she is learning to be chill around other dogs by sitting on her mat getting treats while the party dogs do their thing in the background.
Nala hasn’t found this easy in the past but look at her go!!! Her mum has been working really hard on this and we are going to keep working on it whilst making sure that Nala is having fun and feeling happy!
Amazing work team Nala!!

Sniffing!!!! (Sound up to hear amazing snoot sniffs!!)
Sniffing is how dogs ‘see’ the world.
Their noses are incredible! If we could see colours like they can smell scents then we would be so overwhelmed! We’d likely just stand and stare!
If there’s one thing I want every dog to be able to do, it is sniff! To smell their world and Investigate.
Some Sniffing benefits are:
🐾 Helps dogs feel calm
🐾 Tires them out (way more than physical exercise)
🐾 Makes them feel good
🐾 Builds their confidence
🐾 Mental stimulation
So what are waiting for? Get your pup out for some sniffs, and have patience when they take some time to take it all in!! 🐾🦮🐕🦺
