Here he is!!! 😍😍
Unbelievable transformation by Wensleydale!
My very ambitious aim ahead of this two day bootcamp was to have him at a group class by the end of day two and I’ll be honest, i didn’t think we’d make it 😅
So incredibly proud of this little boy!! ♥️
Training and healing dogs from past trauma is not always easy (particularly with rescues when you don’t know exactly) but my god does it feel amazing to see the work pay off and watch a dog move forward without fear, anxiety or insecurity.
Thank you to the amazing training team at SOS Obedience Knoxfield for having us and making this positive socialisation experience possible ☺️

Fair to say Snoopy did amazing in his first class 🤩🤩🤩
We were able to achieve this walking in just a single class because Snoopy is not a natural “pack leader” at all, so once his parents took control, he was more than happy to follow their lead 😌
The truth is all dogs are wired to follow a pack leader so we can always teach them to walk like this. If you’re having any issues walking your dog, book in a class to improve your walk immediately 😁

While most dogs have absolutely loved having us home full time for the last couple of years, many have been impacted by the long periods of isolation…
So if your dog needs to catch up on basics or help with new “antisocial” behaviour, we are here to help!
Please contact us if you have any questions or you can book online through the website! ☺️

So impressed with Hunter (cattle dog), who I saw a few months ago to help him with his anxiety and reactivity out walking 🤩 #proudtrainermoment
This time we focused on the whole pack dynamic… enter Binx 🐕🦺 and making sure we’re all calm and relaxed together 👨👩👦👦

Zelda is the little brindle and white #bullterrier you can see running around in that video.
She originally came into care with us because she wasn’t good around other dogs… fast forward and not only did she find an incredible home but she LOVES a run around the dog park 🤩🤩

The beautiful NOCELLA is ready for adoption!
When I first went out to work with Nocella it was pulling and lead reactivity... This is a month later and she’s finally ready for adoption.
Credit to her amazing carer who’s obviously been putting in all the hard work 🤩
Head to @startingoverdogrescue to apply!

Update on Broadsmith, who has been one of the most challenging dogs I’ve ever worked with... from severe anxiety to compulsive behaviours to extreme dominance and slight aggression this poor boy has obviously been through some seriously tough things in life!
Today he is almost* a new man!
In the past week we’ve seen some serious breakthroughs with him being calm and relaxed for whole days at a time (no tantrums, barking, squealing, whinging or biting) and the fact that in 5 weeks we’re onto off lead practice is incredible!
This sweet and seriously misunderstood boy has really tested all my training/knowledge/experience/abilities and reminded me why I do what I do!!
#watchthisspace because Broadsmith will be looking for a very special home soon 🏡
