Facial expression says it all 😅
Two basic isolation toys to help relieve stress and anxiety when leaving your dog alone. These tools will stimulate your dog mentally and physically tiring them out. Using their favourite treats or freezing meat is great for the kong and the bone can keep them chewing for hours. The bone is also good for cleaning their teeth 🦷 Give it a go 💪🏽
When a dog has been taught to walk to heel anyone can walk the dog as shown is this video 👏🏽 #dogsofinstagram #amstaff #doglover #dogs #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogfunny #pitbull #amstaffblue #puppiesoftiktok #pitbullsoftiktok #doglife
❌ BOUNDARIES Does your dog have them?Claiming and reinforcing boundaries is vital in training your dog. Having boundaries will keep them safe knowing that they aren’t going to take off when a door or gate opens. This ties into control and being the pack leader ensuring your dog is waiting for the next command and not taking it upon itself to do as it pleases!
Small dogs and big dogs CAN be friends! ❗️please don’t be afraid to let your small dog socialise with big dogs ❗️It will grow your dogs confidence to become well-balanced and also grow your confidence too ❗️if you’re insecure letting your small dog play or interact with big dogs, well guess what… your small dog will pick this energy up too ❗️A majority of large dog breeds will know how to adapt their play style when playing with small dog breeds ❗️This video highlights the results of 2 confident dog owners letting their dogs socialise properly ❗️ Let DOGS be DOGS 🙃✊🏽 Ft @ace.the.pomm
Respect & Eye Contact ☑️ Eye contact is a great way to ensure your dog is attentive and listening to your commands as pack leader ✊🏽
Bull Terrier Breed
Things to note when thinking of getting a puppy from the Bully Umbrella 📝
Bull Terriers of all sorts should be
well socialized and obedience training
should start at an early age in order to
encourage a healthy and balanced
disposition in your dog ✔️
Is your puppy biting on everything it can get it’s razor teeth around? 🙈
1️⃣ Remove all forbidden items and replace with a plush toy (redirection)
2️⃣ Your puppy biting your finger is not cute! Don’t let them away with this as it will become a learned behaviour they will bring into adulthood
3️⃣ Feed your puppy out of a Kong so they are engaged biting the toy and being rewarded at same time
❌ Remember don’t set your puppy up for failure. Ensure there is no access to anything it could chew up and follow through on corrections!
Do you have control of your dog on and off lead?
❌ if your dog is pulling while on the lead walk DO NOT let it off. This will reinforce bad habits and behaviour.
✅ walk with a loose lead. Don't ask your dog to sit, COMMAND and ensure they give you eye contact so you can be confident that your dog is calm and actively listening before being let off the lead to explore.

Meet Arturo 🤩 (the happiest dog in the world) Arturo had a session with us today consisting of all the basic tools required in training. We completed walking to heel, recall and eye contact when receiving instructions or treats. You can see in the videos that Arturo is very over stimulated hence the hyperactive behaviour. To slow everything down we took him a long walk with some off lead time.During the session we done walking to heel, interval recalls and making him sit for treats to keep his mind working and focused.
Aggressive or Playful? 👀
Reading a dogs body language will help you not only in training but in every day life. You can avoid confrontations with dogs who seem aggressive, apprehensive or nervous etc because you have read the body language from a distance and can react accordingly. This will ensure you are confident for your dog to interact with other dogs that display the correct body language and keep your dog safe.
Notice that the dog in the video is wagging her tail, putting her front legs down on ground and bouncing around which shows excited/happy behaviour. Now you can make an educated approach towards the dog as you have read the body language and see it poses no threat.
RECALL - Off Leash Recall Training today with Peppa 🐾
Does your dog always run over to other people & dogs etc. and not return when you call them?
Dogs are very easily distracted by a number of things especially at a young age. Establishing a good recall is extremely important to keep your dog safe & under control.
In this video you can see Peppa is distracted by people in the distance. Noticing Peppa approach them I whistle for her to return to me. When Peppa returns, she sits, gives me eye contact and at this point I reward her with a treat. The more we do this, the more Peppa will associate returning to me as rewarding behaviour which we are trying to reinforce in every part of training. Positive reinforcement is the best way to train your canine companion 🦮
