Oh this girl melts my heart 🧡
We struggled with our recent training walk, she was a little worried and a little frantic initially. BUT we had some amazing moments of focus and loose lead walking, probably the best to date! It just took us a while, and that's OK!
Sometimes we all need a little time and a little reassurance to succeed 🐾

Recall 🐾
After spending some time away and on holiday, Malu's recall slacked a little. We spent our recent training walk reminding her good things happen close and big rewards happen when you recall.
She was super! 🐾

Mia joined me for a training walk recently. I've known Mia a long time, so it was lovely getting out with her!
As an assistant dog, Mia has certain behaviours she must consistently perform to retain her qualification, so we spent time solidifying these behaviours. Then we had a play around with some other commands Mia knows, which made us realise we have some homework to do with Mia dropping things! 🙈 Cheeky monkey!

Super loose lead walking and focus from this little man on our recent training walk 😍

I think Malu was happy to see me 🧡 I could hear her tail wagging against the door the second I got out the van 🙊
The relationships we as trainers, make with you and your dogs are so important! We are all working together after all, building that bond and improving that partnership.
And it's always a great feeling when they are happy to see us! 🐾

This might not look like much. Just 2 dogs going for a walk right?
Bonnie struggles with some over arousal around dogs, she can become fixated and a little 'rude'. So Suki joined us to show Bonnie how to just be a dog, be neutral, and learn some manners along the way.
Bonnie was super! 🐾
Need help with your dogs over-arousal? Maybe they need some work around other dogs? Feel free to pop me a message!

Benny update! 🐾
I'll forever love getting client updates. I received this video over the weekend from Bennys owner, showing how great he is doing with his loose lead walking 🧡
Well done guys! Keep up the great work 🐾

Problem solving fun! 💧🐾
Isla LOVES water! So what better way to cool her down, AND keep her brain active, than using some fun problem solving!
As the weather heats up, do you have any fun ways to make sure your dogs are keeping cool?! ☀️

Rolo 🐾
I recently got to spend some time with this boy on a training walk. We focused mostly on gundog exercises, particularly retrieving to hand.
Rolo knows a treat will happen if he brings his dummy back, so will drop it on the floor as he runs in, read to get his treat!
So, I removed the treat and rewarded Rolo with the chase of the dummy, and continuation of the game, IF the dummy landed in my hand!
Sometimes all we have to do is change our reward 🐾

I LOVE this girl 🧡
We've been to lots of different places recently, to really work on Malu's focus and recall. We've had recent trips to Priory Park.
Was it hard? Yes. Did we have to reset? Yes. BUT Malu remained focused, recalled every time from distractions, AND we had zero barking or lunging at people or dogs.
Sometimes, we have to put ourselves and our dogs in slightly harder environments or situations to push forward with training.
She also thinks she's a lap dog.. see final clip 🙊

If only we were all as happy as Zeke 🙊🥰
We've been having fun with some gundog exercises recently, particularly looking at getting a super quick stop on the whistle, and adding in some distance.
With a little bit of hunting to keep things fun in between!
I love working with this boy! 🐾

Happy mothers day! 🧡🐾
Spent with family, drinking coffee and eating cake, accompanied by my best girls 🐾
Suki acted as a great hurdle for the staff, not moving from her down 🙈😂
