Hello everyone.

I am looking for an experienced dog owner the can take an American Akita under there wing. She is 3 years old has no health problems. The owner has taken very good care of her but has no choice except re homing her. There is no rush and only experienced owners will be considered.

Please pm me for more details.

Hi all.
I had the privilege of working with this beautiful girl today. Due to an incident with a stranger that was not the dogs fault she is now very wary of strangers near her. I met with her owner this morning and walked with her then walked her myself. This shows by giving dog owners and their dogs some space and respect, makes all the difference.

How could you say no to working with this face! Little bit of nipping and a little advice given to a very up to date owner. Later we will be doing some recall so keep an eye out for her progress.
Keep up the good work 🐶

Hi everyone. Not posted in a while! Been busy🐶
This lad did very well today. We were meeting dogs in a safe area and although we were a bit reactive we now know the safe and rewarding way to deal with new dogs. Don’t avoid this boy on a walk as he is not dangerous just unsure.

Hi everyone.
I would like to offer my services to anyone needing help with there “xl bully type” dogs at a very low cost. Muzzle training, pulling on lead and recall. The law will be changing very soon and it’s always better to get ahead so it is not a rushed training experiance for your pet. Please msg me on Simon Maclagan Dog Trainer. I have trained my own dog ahead of the changes just incase he is mistaken for an xl. Please make sure you are up to date as I wouldn’t want any of our fur babies harmed for no reason 🐶

Hi everyone
I am on the lookout for a new home for a 2yo cane corso. He has been placed in a home not suited to him so we need to get the appropriate home asap. He has everything he needs to move. He pulls on the lead and sometimes jumps up but nothing bad. A home with just people to love or just one person with time would be ok. Transport can be arranged. Financial contribution is asked by currant owner.

New home found! Thanks for all the help guys!

Muzzle training today with my boy. He is a staffie cross bulldog. No legal requirement but he loves to learn new things so thought we would give this a go. I think about a week and we will have this as the new norm for most dogs.

Hi everyone.
I’m afraid my back has given up again so I am out of action for as long as it takes 🙁

This handsome boy showed how clever he is tonight. He has lots of energy but handled in the proper way he is very manageable. Remembering what breed he is and what he was bred to do tells us why some behaviours happen. Given the chance to use his natural gift for scent means he will be chilled and cuddly when you want to relax. Thankfully his new owners have the time, knowledge and ability to bring him on. 🐶
