4 years since Brodie came home and it has honestly flown by. He has taught me so much and given me more than I could ever ask for 🥰⠀
⠀
Brodie is always up for anything (and he’s usually pretty good) whether it’s agility, scentwork, gundog training or helping me out at work with with clients dogs. But above all he’s my best friend, makes me laugh ever single day and I don’t know what I’d do without him 🧡⠀
⠀
Here’s to many more years of the best cuddles and annoying each other 🦊 forever grateful to James & for letting me have him 🫶🏻

Recently we’ve had an influx of new clients making concerning comments such as:

• my last trainer told me that reactivity is a breed trait and that it is permanent
• my behaviourist told me my dog’s boisterousness will take years to go
• my veterinary behaviourist told me to use only positive reinforcement (this was for an overseas ex-stray who has bitten 3 visitors to the house, one bite requiring stitches)
• the last trainer charged me £450 to sit on my sofa drinking tea - she left me with a generic document about counter-conditioning and that’s it

Many of you will be able to relate to that last one.
We are SICK of so-called dog trainers (behaviourists, ‘veterinary behaviourists’, whatever they want to call themselves) making unfair, ridiculous, inaccurate or even harmful comments that they are not experienced enough to make!
These utter clowns have caused innocent dog owners to believe they will have to live with reactivity forever, that dogs will ‘grow out of’ boisterous jumping up, that aggression can be resolved with a bit of cheese…

Normally we keep ourselves to ourselves and train whoever wants to be trained, not joining in with nonsense & incorrectness.
However, we are now making a public appeal to look for RESULTS rather than sweeping statements! They may have 10 ‘qualifications’ but this is an unregulated industry. They can claim they are ‘science-based’ and ‘positive only’ all they want, but it’s these people who are sucking thousands of pounds from the general public in exchange for NOTHING!

What should you look for in a trainer?
• exceptionally well-behaved, obedient, neutral dogs
• proof they can handle high-drive dogs
• no blanket methods - your trainer should understand every dog requires a different approach
• proof they can handle aggression & reactivity (if that’s what you’re paying for)

Some ‘force-free’ social media dog trainers with enormous followings sit on their sofas bitching about e collars and prong collars, yet they have dogs who can’t recall, dogs who are still reactive, and dogs who are “still” destroying the house!

Wake up - don’t fall for what is only marketing 👍🏻

the last week at ultimutts 🫶🏻🐾

05/10/2023

Can we please stop expecting that EVERY dog wants to go to dog parks, daycares, patio parties and have birthday parties with other dogs! Nobody loves dogs more than me, but I’m here to tell you that dogs aren’t human children. They don’t want to do everything a human child does. Breed can matter when deciding what is fun for your best friend. Your Husky may have the energy to run, your Retriever may want to retrieve and your terrier may want to chase and grab. So yes, raising them with kindness is paramount, but paying attention to their needs is too. I said it.

This mentality that every dog has to be “social” with other people and dogs is keeping my shelter full, my days long and my heart broken, because I see the best dogs passed over, because they wouldn’t do well at a dog park or daycare. Not every dog needs to like your friends. I keep my dog in his room when people come over, because he isn’t comfortable around everyone, and I don’t want to set him up for failure. Love your dog enough to respect her boundaries.

Your dog doesn’t want to meet every dog. The reality show you watched about dog training and dog adoption is fake, I’ve worked in television, it’s edited to create a good story, not necessarily a real story. Let’s stop these narratives on dog ownership that are SOLD to us and based on making money. Dogs aren’t a business they are our best friends. Remember that.

Your dog can be perfectly safe and happy without overstimulating daycare or doggy birthday parties. Those things are fun for some dogs, but not for all. I want to take my dog everywhere, I want to give my dog the things I would want, but for the love of dogs in shelters everywhere, let’s ask dogs what do they REALLY want?

Dogs want more sniffs, waterlogged sticks, a quiet place to decompress, a space to stretch their legs and you to respect their body language and boundaries. They are talking to you…listen.

The dogs have been loving the treats that James very kindly gave us so I’ll be popping in today to get some more (plus some natural chews for my own boys!) and to take advantage of all the deals Pets Plus Bearsden have on until tomorrow - don’t miss out!!! 🦴🛍️🐾

⁣Obi 🩵⠀
⠀
Newbie Obi started with me last week and has just slotted right in as if I’ve been walking him for ages - excellent recall, neutral towards the other dogs, great in the van etc. - his owners have clearly put in the work with him 🙌🏼 ⠀
⠀
I am loving having him out on our walks! We also had some good guesses as to what breed Obi was on my story last week when I started walking this handsome boy but nobody guessed collie! 🖤⠀

this is an excellent post!

There is lots of ways to raise a dog and I'm not here to tell you that my way is the best way.
I do think I've seen enough that I can recommend to avoid your pup becoming a hyperactive mess.

Happy doesn't mean no rules.
Fun doesn't mean no boundaries.
Love doesn't mean do whatever you want.

Dogs can be loved, happy and have fun with routine, boundaries and structure just like kids can. The more freedom you give them, the more it can turn into a hot mess when they get older. Do yourself and especially your dog a favour by giving them rules to follow and boundaries to adhere to.
