Before today’s workshop this little lady would only go for a paddle in shallow water. Look at her now! Awesome to watch her confidence grow leaps and bounds! 💞☀️🌊
This young man has not been keen on getting into water for quite some time. But in the past couple of months his confidence has gone through the roof and he’s loving a swim in this hot weather! What a star!!! 🌟💙
Our little Poodle gaining more and more confidence around water! She doesn’t like getting her toes wet usually, so this was a huge achievement! 🥰
Lots of clients had a great day today at our Water Workshop! This is Harvey working on his steadiness, recalling away from the pond to be reset for a retrieve! Smashed it! 🐶🐶🐶
🌳💦 L&B WATER WORKSHOP💦🌳
Part one of many proud videos of our awesome clients today! This is Harvey Bear having a go at recalling away and sending for a retrieve!💙
Looks like SOMEONE doesn’t need asking twice to get ready for their agility 121! 👀🤣

Today is the day we celebrate the dogs in yellow
💛⭐️March 20th⭐️💛 #dogsinyellow
If you see a dog wearing yellow asking for space help them out.
Dogs need space for so many reasons.
They may be nervous, anxious, hormonal or recovering. Some dogs may be sore or in pain due to arthritis or another condition.
If you see a dog on lead wearing yellow get your dog close under control (on lead) walk past calmly and feel good that you made someone’s day a little easier.
#dogsinyellow Day
So even though we have offered Hoopers for nearly 2 years, I had never tried it myself. So after watching the Hoopers displays at Crufts last week, I decided to give it a go with Breeze and Boo. They absolutely loved it and were so good at it. Now I’m hooked!
This is a small group of dogs that were invited to one of our WOOFER’S PACK WALKS on Saturday. 🐶🐶🐶
These were all reactive dogs, that were triggered by either dogs on sight, other dogs movement, other dogs energy levels and entire male dogs coming into their space!
They have been working on a 121 basis with us for a few months, with the assistance of our stooge dogs to help their rehabilitation process.
They were all ready for the next challenge in their training programme, which was to attend a walk with other dogs in a natural country environment. And look at the results, you can see for yourselves!!! 🩷💙🩷
We took it nice and steady to begin with, then as we saw the dogs were becoming more and more comfortable, they ended up walking along side each other without any negative reactions at all…the owners were so shocked, but so very pleased.😀😀😀
These clients have worked so hard with their dogs helping them to feel so much more relaxed in the presence of another dog.
You can see that with hard work, dedication and the guidance of a professional, you can overcome any problem that your dog has!
Well done gang, you all did such an amazing job. We are super proud of you all and can’t wait for next time. 🐶🐶🐶
