A lovely few hours spent with family at the Waddesdon chilli festival but there was a down side to this.

So many dogs being pulled around & corrected, some heavily (they were Labrador puppies) on slip & grot collars. The Labrador pups were confused & stressed by the constant corrections when all they wanted to do was check out the scents, people & other dogs. If you have a young dog or two that will struggle in that environment then leave them at home.

This is why going to any type of dog show would be far to stressful having to observe these types of behaviours and seeing dogs so stressed out.

And not to forget a viszla in a gold prong collar who had no choice but to comply. 😡

No time to train your dog - Introducing Kettle Training 😊

This pot contains about 20-25 pieces of food or a reward. These are Canagan Quail treats that my dog absolutely loves. (Remember you need to find what food or toy is motivating, rewarding for your dog) Hend most likely finds these treats motivating as he’s never had quail before. So switching up flavours can really help with training. Anyway back to the kettle! 🤣

Many people feel overwhelmed when you mention training your dog and I think one of the reasons is because we think we are going to have to spend hours teaching our dog a new cue. Whilst for example loose lead walking does need to be practiced a lot, the time we take to train these behaviours is actually very short.

One of the methods to ensure you don’t go on and on with training is to get about 20 treats ready in a pot and think about the one cue you feel your dog would benefit most from learning. The key is not to overwhelm yourself with these kinds of thoughts

‘I need to train leave, drop, down & recall but I just don’t have the time to do all this as I work full time, have 2 children, have a busy social life etc etc’ So I’ll start the training tommorrow. Does this sound familar? 🤔

So choose only one cue, say for example down if that’s what you feel your dog needs to learn first. Get the 20 yummy treats ready in a pot or a pouch, flick the kettle on and then whilst your waiting for it to boil start your training session.

By the time your kettle has boiled, I’m pretty sure you will have used up most of your 20 so treats. That’s it training session over and you can now reward yourself with a tea, coffee or herbal tea!

Whilst this might sound a bit tongue in cheek, the key here is really short, succinct training sessions with high value food your dog loves.

When you put your kettle on again repeat! You’ll soon get into the hang of using your kettle as a reminder that it’s time to train with Fido and this will become a positive habit. Who
knows, your dog might even start getting excited when the kettle gets flicked on!

If you don’t drink a hot drink either flick it on anyway (if you have a kettle that is) and make someone else in the house a tea! You’ll soon be their favourite person, aswell as your dogs! 😉

Dog training for companion pets

Have you considered doing some training with your adult dog just to teach the basics but never quite got around to it.

All dogs of any age can benefit from a 4 or 6 week course to look at food manners, rushing through doors, waiting in the car, walking loosely on a lead or jumping up at people or dogs. Rushing to get the mail!

These are some of the reasons why people need support with their adult dogs but won’t ask for support because people feel embarrassed to reach out. Teaching a dog some simple foundation behaviours and understanding how we teach them can really help to build confidence not only for you the guardian but also for your dog. It will help to build a relationship between you both when you understand how to train your dog using food, toy & environmental rewards.

This is positive reinforcement based training, one to one in the comfort of your own home, garden and outside in the world where you may be struggling with some behaviours & your not sure how to approach them,

I wanted to share this information especially for dog guardians in the Bierton area. A dog was poisoned within the last 7 days in the Bierton area. This is a dog I walk but was not walking him at the time it happened. The dog has made a full recovery 😊 However the vets confirmed it was a drug that he ingested so please be aware these ingestions do happen sadly.

Sadly we live in a world where all sorts of hazards are around for our dog to pick up, discarded narcotics, chewing gum or sweets with birch bark (previously known as xylitol) vermin poisons, corn on the cob husks. and my absolute worst fear the plants Lords & ladies which are out at the moment.

Worth having the poisons hotline to hand aswell as calling the vets.

A lovely review from such dedicated & wonderful guardians. I really enjoyed our sessions together.

Our Story

I provide an ethical & reliable dog walking and pet visiting service in Bierton, Aylesbury, Stoke Mandeville and surrounding area's. Dog walking - I only provide an individual 'one to one' dog walking service for up to 3 dogs per owner. I do provide an 'off lead service' but your dog must have a reliable recall and this will need to be discussed before any walks are undertaken. I completed the APDT Foundation Dog Training course in 2017 and am now a student member of the APDT. I am undertaking Part 2 of this course in 2018. I am also an assistant trainer at an APDT recognised dog training school. Pet visiting service -This is a very popular service for clients who may have a new kitten or a puppy that need company and toilet breaks throughout the day. This service is also available for owners who need someone to come into their own home during a holiday period or a family illness when they are away too provide company, feeding, cleaning of trays, hutches and of course play time. I can cater for dogs, cats, birds, fish, rabbits, guinea pigs and other small furries. I do not cater for reptiles as this is an area I have limited knowledge of. Pet sitting service - Many owners are not able too leave their dogs alone for extended periods and I can provide a day sitting service, whereby I come to your home and stay with your pet and provide food, company and fun. Please note I do not provide a doggy day care service.
