* Scentwork once a month at Arncott village hall, Arncott. Contact Jennie
[email protected] for days and times.

* Tricks at Arncott village hall, Arncott. Teaching your dog to do various tricks helps to build the bond between you both and allows your dog to us it's brain. Granny that your dog can 'give paw' is a treat for Granny. Contact Jennie [email protected] for days and times. Thanks to Covid we can continue to do one to one training sessions in your own home using Zoom. Puppy training, Basic Obedience and Scentwork can all be trained using Zoom. Agility and Hoopers can't be trained using Zoom as you will need specialise equipment. We can train the whole family in your own homes so no one feels left out! You don't need to get out in the cold and wet to drive to training classes so saving on your time and petrol costs. If your dog is nervous of other dogs or has aggression towards other dogs, using Zoom training solves that problem as there are no other dogs in the zoom session. Puppies who are not allowed to go out and socialise with other dogs as they are not fully innoculated can start to train early using Zoom. For prices of any Zoom courses or the starting dates for our 'normal courses' please email Jennie [email protected] or message her using Facebook messenger

The weekend's shaping up to be a scorcher, with yellow heat warnings in place across parts of the UK.
☀️ Did you know 75% of heatstroke cases in dogs are caused by exercising on a hot day?
Please avoid walking your dog during the hottest parts of the day. Instead, head out early in the morning or later in the evening when it's cooler.
Learn more about heatstroke and safe walking times at thekennelclub.org.uk/heatstroke

⚠️ And we shouldn't still need to say this... but every year, we do: Dogs die in hot cars.

I have decided as it is really hot already to cancel all dog training classes this evening.
Don't forget no training next Thursday.

Too hot for walkies? Let them sniff instead! 🐾
When it’s roasting outside, swap the walk for scent games indoors.
Sniffing = brainwork = happy (but cooler) dogs!
💡 Try these:
🔍 Hide treats in boxes or towels
🧠 Use a snuffle mat or scatter food
🎯 Practice short scent detection sessions

A few minutes of sniffing can be just as satisfying as a walk and way safer in this heat.
Let their nose do the work while you both stay chill 😎

Tip: Let Them Sniff!
When it comes to scent detection, sniffing isn’t wasted time — it’s thinking in progress.

We often see handlers get twitchy when their dog pauses mid-search, noses the air, or seems “stuck.” But here’s the truth: that moment of hesitation is your dog doing complex scent-based problem-solving.

Dogs process an enormous amount of information through their noses. When they pause to sniff — without immediately reacting — they’re:
🔍 Gathering data
🧠 Interpreting scent layers
🎯 Narrowing in on the source

If we jump in too early with cues or corrections, we interrupt that mental process. Instructors, this is a vital concept to teach your teams: sometimes the best thing we can do is wait quietly and let the dog work it out.

👏 Trust the process. Trust the dog. Sniffing is not stalling — it’s learning.
