Indy, our 100 mile an hour pup in class who found it hard to use self control and listen to her owner. Katrina wrote "l have a changed puppy". So lovely to see this Katrina, you've never given up on her and youve worked so hard. WELL DONE. Thanks for sending it.

A big thank you to the gentleman who found one of my client's phone on the table outside Hamstreet Hall this evening and handed it to me. It belonged to someone who attended an earlier class and has now been returned. Many thanks for your honesty.

It's Foxtail Grass Seed time folks.
These little devil's have tiny hooks on them. They attach to the dog's fur and can work their way into the skin quite quickly causing pain, irritation and infection. They can also get into dogs ears, and up their noses. Once under the skin they can move around the body causing even more serious issues.
With the Council not cutting grass so frequently they are becoming a real problem for dogs. Check your dog thoroughly after every walk, including in the ears and nostrils and remove any you find, bear in mind sometimes the tiny hook breaks off and could still cause a problem so keep an eye for any signs of skin irritation etc and if needs be get your dog along to their vets.
Happy walking folks.

Did you know that often when a child is bitten it's by a dog they, or the family know . . . Some good info here by Levit Leads: https://www.facebook.com/share/ssqnQn9WG1e3E3QE/

Let's talk about this photo. It's cute, except it's not. I see a dog who cannot get up without telling the child to get off. How do you think a dog is going to do that?

The 7 Golden Toddler Dog Rules:
#1: If a dog walks away from you, you DO NOT FOLLOW.
#2: Always leave room for the dog to walk away from you.
---that right there is 90+% of dog bites eliminated---
#3: We do not climb on the dog.
#4: We do not grab or pull on the dog.
#5: We do not hit or throw anything at the dog.
#6: We do not touch the dog's food.
#7: We do not go into the dog's kennel.

I promise these are not overly difficult concepts for littles, nor will they rob a kid of their bond with the family dog. It will deepen that bond, while keeping everyone safe.

"Oh, it looks like Moose is walking away from you. She is saying she wants a break. Let's play with this instead!"

"It's Moose's dinner time! Let's give her space to enjoy her yummies."

"That is Moose's room(kennel) and only she is allowed to go in there."

"If Moose wanted a break, could she walk away from you right now? No she really couldn't. Let's move away from the play house. You can keep playing but now she can leave when she wants a break."

In conclusion, ***parent your child or your dog will do it for you, and you will not like how they do it.***

Are you looking to take up a new hobby/exercise regime with your dog?
Tracking is a low impact exercise. Any dog has the ability to be able to track, whatever their breed and whatever their age.
Come and give it a go and see for yourself.

Going to be a warmish weekend. Have fun and enjoy the long awaited good weather. Be mindful though that dogs often don't cope as well as us in hot weather. Keep them cool, provide shade, walk when it's cooler, early morning, late evening, and please don't leave them unattended in a car . . . Even with the window down.
Have a lovely and safe weekend.
