Maxibon's owner is STOKED with their new style of laid-back cruising together... Here they areπ΅"Walking On Sunshine"π΅, as these two legends completely turned things around in their very first lesson.
"I still want to be able to text my mates or whatever", said Maxi's owner regarding dog walks, "and not get me arm ripped off!"
In this video, she easily retrieves her phone while walking Maxibon WITH JUST ONE FINGER.
At last, after three years of near-mayhem, A Star Is Born.πΌπΆπΈπβοΈ

If Gus was in a band, it'd be called G U S 'n' Roses, because he's toning down the tempo & tuning those glam-rock ears into his owners' sweet acoustics. Or something like that...
In lesson 1, Gus went from being a virtual non-listener, to learning "All we need is a little patience"π΅ on his leash walks in #botanicridge (or what he calls "Paradise City").
He realised there's always time to stop and smell the roses, while ignoring rowdy rockdogs.ππ
Then he went home, had a stiff drink and flaked out on the floor π€π
Like any "Sweet Child 'o' Mine", I look forward to his next big performanceπ€π

Part 3 of the story of 8-y.o. Rex sees him now fully 'GRADUATED'! ποΈππ¨βπ
From paddocks to paths in only a few training sessions, he now walks slowly with his elderly owner, making eye contact with her and listening to instructions. β

He still gets to run and smell things too... when his owner says it's okay.π
π΅"R-E-S-P-E-C-T... Find out what it means to"... be respected like this! --- Contact The Dog Tuner, or lighten someone's winter with a gift voucher when their dog needs a little ray of sunshine and lots more knowledge, confidence, control, happiness, relaxation.π΅πβ

Piper was a jumper, runner, biter, sniper, but I've been walking her once a week for the last few weeks. She's still under 6 months old, so she does test her people's patience, but there's no way she'd ever do THIS when I first met her!
Now, she often stops, listens and looks for directions as she discovers the less demands she makes, the more she gets.

Who says you can't teach an old dog new things? 8 y.o. Rex, as seen here last week, is mastering the move from free range paddock life, to this whole new suburban leash caper β
ππ
Like Tom Jones or Rod Stewart, he's already very popular around his owner's retirement village!

We gotπ΅"R-E-S-P-E-C-T"π΅from L-O-T-T-I-E on W-A-L-K-I-E in her very first individual training session, after she'd been pulling severely on leash for about 4 years! πΎππ€
