What a day! Today was the first day since my little mate Latte passed away that I have been feeling okay. My family have been here. I had a walk, something I haven’t been ok to do for a few weeks. I made good choices, I was confident and content. I made eye co tact when I wasn’t sure and my humans became a barrier between me and a grumpy dog behind a fence and I calmly walked past at my normal walking pace. I got to being home some beach sniffs too to remember that I had an awesome day. Thank you for helping me

Happy Saturday !!!! It started well. An emergency vehicle outside our house. I barked but settled really quickly even though they came to the door. Yay me!!!!

There’s a pup in there! That’s my training bag with lots of toys and equipment. I’d like to introduce you to Gary - he was way too excited to wait for me to empty my bag that he jumped right on in!! He’s a beautiful pup with awesome owners who want to set Gary up with life skills and manners training in a fun force free fear free way. So happy to say that Gary and his family were my second puppy consult this week. Gotta love ❤️ humans who bring home a puppy and choose 100% force free training.

Did you know our pets grieve too? Our kitty Indi has passed away, the only meow my pooches knew. Even though they got to say their own goodbye after Indi died their sadness is real. Off their food, super clingy, cuddly, moping around. Big girl has been taking herself outside and curling up in the corner of the backyard. On its own that may not sound anything to think about - but knowing my dog and that she is only ever outside for toileting it’s a big thing. She’s grieving, she’s taking herself away from us and the house as she processes everything. When a pat passes it’s easy to get swept up in our emotions, please consider your other pets, what they need, what behaviours are new/different. If you’re not sure what to do PLEASE find a fear free trainer - our fav is Look after you and your pet and for extra support contact the lovely Tracey or your vet like the superstars - it’s the best thing you can do for yourself and your pets who are missing a family member (human or furry)

The eyes of a contended girl and the face of a pooch who loves sticking her head in the shower - but not her whole body. We take little wins while we can and will be building up her confidence to get in the new shower once the warmer weather hits. For now - it’s a face (head) wash only. By taking it at her pace our progress is slow and steady and we’re less likely to have anxiety and fear of the new shower screen and floor railing become a long term apprehension.
