Paw & Order is 3 years old! Thank you for your continuing support, every year is more successful than the last and I am forever grateful. Getting to change dogs and owners lives on the daily is the most rewarding feeling and a high I will never stop chasing! We have such exciting things planned for the future of Paw & Order and I cannot wait to bring you all on that journey, here's to the next 3 years and many many more 🥂🤎

Storm has just finished his block of training sessions, we worked on jumping up, manners towards guests, and impulse control. He did wonderful!

Alfie is another example of a genetically fearful dog that once matured started to use reactivity as a defence mechanism. Alfie would bark at most things that moved on a walk, but dogs and people were his biggest triggers. He would pull so much that even with a harness he would manage to choke himself.

Alfie wouldn't take food outside, sniff any of the environment, or go to the toilet on walks as the fear and anxiety he felt was so strong that he simply couldn't relax and be a dog. This kind of severity meant we had to strip right back to basics and reintroduce the walks once foundations had been set.

Alfie will now take food on walks and in the presence of his triggers, he will walk past dogs and people without thinking the worst is going to happen. He can walk with a loose lead and no longer choke because of the pulling! He will always be nervous at heart, but as long as his space is respected he can now finally start to enjoy himself and explore the world comfortably. He started going to the toilet on walks during our sessions, and his owner has since sent me videos of him sniffing on walks too!

Alfie's training has helped his confidence improve so much that even things we didn't touch on during training have gotten better. For example, his owner had a friend come round with her little girl before training and Alfie really struggled to settle down, he barked a lot and would run/hide away. The same friend and little girl has been round since, and Alfie was completely relaxed and quiet, even taking food off the little girl.

The difference in this lovely little dog is night and day. He has absolutely smashed it and it has been so rewarding to see him progress in the ways which he has.

Massive well done to Sophie and Alfie 🤎

Reposting this for new clients to read or anyone that missed it last year, it's really important to understand how the sun and heat affects your specific breed, age, and colour of dog! If you're ever unsure, just skip the walk, much better to be safe than sorry 🤞🏻

Since the warmer weather is finally sticking, here are my business rules for training sessions in summer.

- If we are on to outdoor sessions and on the day of our session it is 18° or above (full sun, little to no cloud, no wind or rain), and you own a small/short legged brachycephalic breed such as a Frenchie, Pug, Boston Terrier, English Bulldog etc, the session will not go ahead that day.

- If we are on to outdoor sessions and on the day of our session it is 19° or above (full sun, little to no cloud, no wind or rain), and your dog is giant in size, black in colour, overweight, elderly, or very young, the session will not go ahead that day.

- If we are on to outdoor sessions and on the day of our session it is 21° or above (full sun, little to no cloud, no wind or rain), and you own any other breed, size, colour, or age not mentioned above, the session will not go ahead that day.

- If we are still on indoor sessions and on the day of our session it is 23° or above (full sun, little to no cloud, no wind or rain), regardless of breed and size etc, the session will not go ahead that day. The heat will make your dog lethargic at home, therefore not motivated to learn or move around, therefore wasting a session.

If we do not have a session planned that day, or you're not even a current client of mine, please DO NOT walk your dogs above 21° full sun weather (less if you own a dog from the first paragraph). It is just not worth it. Please note you can add a couple of degrees on if it's windy, super cloudy, or raining, as the temperature won't feel as hot.

It takes dogs at least 30 days to acclimatise to weather. They do not get that opportunity in this country. 20° to us feels like 25° to them. It's not always about the hot pavement too, obviously it's good to check using the back of your hand, but the pavement may have cooled down by 7pm and the air is still hot. No dog has died from missing a walk, hundreds of dogs die each year from heat related deaths.

If anyone is going to be annoyed by rescheduling because of summer weather, please find an alternate trainer that doesn't give a s**t about your dog 🤎

Louis is over halfway through his perfect puppy package, he's doing so well in every subject and we're loving how intelligent he is! He's full of personality and an absolute joy to work with 🤎

Ruk is still smashing all subjects in his training course, this picture is from a session where trainee Morgan came as a pretend guest so we could teach Ruk how to be polite and interact properly without taking it too far and getting overexcited. He did so so well 😁

This very sweet lad is having some training to improve his confidence around children. He has a really strong negative association towards them currently so we'll be altering this with gentle exposure and a lot of positive interactions.

He has the best hair cut I've ever seen 😂🤎
