What does your dog love to do with your partner?

Love this! After an outing do you take time and take a seat with your doggo and watch? It’s a great exercise for us all.

With this crazy August winds, dogs are getting loose!

Pls make sure gates and house doors are locked and additional barriers are put up near front doorways to minimise escaping if necessary. Keep safe. Paula

It's International Dog Day! I'd love to see a photo of your dog!

What do you enjoy about being a guardian for your dog?

I do want to mention those special dogs that are no longer with us, but are still in our hearts forever. Pls share a special memory of your dog that passed.

Here's my 3 girls. I enjoy spending time with them, be it in nature, a park and watching how they engage in those settings. I enjoy training and caring for them. My constant company. Cuddles is also a big one. The girls also give my husband TJ and I plenty to talk about too. Like 'don't over feed the dogs TJ'. haha! 😊

Sending a big congratulations to our Saturday Good Manners class that just graduated. This is our 7 week course which is very popular for dogs aged 6 months and over. Some people may have attended puppy school, or they are experiencing a challenging adolescent and feel confused what to do. Some people join that have a dog that has recently been rehomed and they need to start their dog's education and life skills. Biscoff the Doberman is an excellent example of a dog that didn't attend puppy school and missed out on some important skills to learn to be calm, keep his paws on the ground, develop leash walking skills. Biscoff is such a smart dog that had learnt tricks and all sorts of fun things, but the life skills were missing. When he went outside of the house he was overstimulated and unable to focus. It was very rewarding seeing how much is possible with a commited family that put in the work each week. Sadly I could only get a few photos for a class that was full. Our next two classes are fully booked. Our next round of Good Manners classes will start in early October.

Edenridge Cavaliers breed beautiful puppies, sound temperament, health checked. Cavaliers are great dogs for first time dog owners. Friendly, happy, trainable. If you work long hours, this is not a breed that will tolerate that. Reach out to Chris and get to know a lovely, responsible ANKC breeder.

Meet Stella a gorgeous Rottweiler who is loving Baby Puppy class.

Responsible owners understand that when they bring home a large breed they need to put in the work from day 1 to ensure they are well trained and safe at home and in the community. Stella is on the right path with joining Baby Puppy to start conditioning her to be calm, keep her paws on the ground, or mouthing and playing safely with appropriate items. Safely greet people, allow handling, and basic obedience skills.

Come join us! More classes starting on Saturday 13 July and Sunday 4 August.

Congratulations to Pond the Cavalier who passed her third annual MindDog Public Access test. Pond continues to support her person with important tasks to keep her person safe. They’ve been on adventures together, creating memories. Fulfilling dreams that we talked about years ago. Australia Zoo, ComicCon and family holidays interstate. 🥰

Maintenance training is an important part of having an assistance dog to ensure skills are kept at a high standard.

Massive congratulations to Macy the Border Collie x Poodle and her handler who just completed their first MindDog Public Access Test. This team has come such a long way, with confidence and advancing their skills to providing support and looking after each other. A fantastic team that are able to be more active in the community because of Macy. Well done!

Before joining the MindDog Assistance dog program. We always recommend to develop good foundation skills so that the transition to assistance dog training is as stress free as possible.

We offer group classes and private sessions to reach those goals.

Can you read your dog’s body language? Does it like being near other dogs? Does your dog have a good recall? Has your dog matured and outgrown play and prefers just being with you?

Exciting that Jamison Dog Park now has a separate area for small dogs. Make sure your dog enjoys this and you can keep your dog safe. Long leashes are always a great alternative for dogs that dont find being around other dogs rewarding.

🐾 The new small dog area is open for some tail-wagging fun at Jamison Park Dog Park!

The separation of the existing dog park with air-locked gates for small dogs helps to improve the safety and usability of the park for all dogs.

You and your favourite furry friends can also look forward to:
🚰 dog-friendly drinking fountains
🗑️ waste bag dispensers and bins
🧑 picnic shelter and new seating and,
🌳 tree planting.

This project was funded by the Australian Government through the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program and delivered by Penrith City Council.
