"Even a broken clock is right twice a day."
But when it comes to your dog's wellbeing, guesswork and outdated methods aren’t good enough. Punishment-based training can cause lasting harm, and with AI and clever marketing, unethical trainers are getting harder to spot. Ask the right questions: what would be your no one question?

Sullivan catch up
He's doing ok. Needs to rest, which is dependent on me staying still too. I kid you not he was sad and unsettled until I offered him a bear, which happened to be a Sullivan from @monster_inc__. He's not aloud to pick him up but can rest his head.
Il pass on your sully love to him, check out stories later.

Safe rant zone in the comments
It's being normalized that dogs running up to your dog are friendly. Quite often it's not. A over friendly dog is rude. Now these dogs don't need tell off but management. Anyway this isn't for you, so rant away
Il get us started
Deri loves dogs but has a bad back. He's worried he's going to be knocked and can shout to protect himself. As he's little people don't listen until he's mad, then they say he's naughty. Not naughty but sore.
Sully is worried by entire boy dogs after being hounded by an ass of an entire male lab. The dog didn't have a clue. He was being super chased with Deri and sully blocked him (a cool social dog behaviour). This dog would sod off. And the owner was humming to himself. This happened twice in the same walk. Sully did so well not to escalate but the stress stuck with him. We also dont see many entire male dogs as lots of dogs are neutered before adulthood so positive experiences are hard to plan.
Make a reel with this audio challenge
Dog are a weird topic as everyone has a bit of knowledge about Quite a specialist area. Some have no knowledge but are very confident, others push myths and harmfully advice. Exhausting and confusing for you.
Noone would give you advice about Hearing a Borborygmus, while you Pandiculate.
But lots of people will give you advise on trauma treatment for dogs, socalisation and socalisation plans, counter conditioning and desensitisation. brain development of puppies. Nero plasticity in dogs. And breed specific behaviours.
Dog training and especially behaviour work is a specialist topic. Being careful where you get advice from is the best advice I can provide.
Borborygmus =the rumbling sound made by the movement of gas in the intestines).
Pandiculation : The act of stretching and yawning, especially upon waking or before going to sleep

How to get 100% recall....
Sorry you can't. It doesn't exist.
What's your recall challenge? Comment with an emoji - we will have a reel series to addresses each one.
Environments are unpredictable.
In today's class I really wanted the dogs to have a play. There were lots of distractions that the dogs would of coped well with. Until I spotted a off lead muzzled terrier - I can't say it wasnt going to be a problem. It was hyper-vidulent to our little group. So we called it- parallel walking for us all. Long lines kept us safe as we moved away and completed our walk.
We worked around
Other dogs
Toddlers
A buggy fit group
Wildlife - squirrels and ducks
Picnics
People having coffee outside
Whilst your dogs recall can never be 100 % you can mitigate this by keeping your dog on lead when your unsure and keeping up recall training, it's a skill our dog needs to practice for life.
Sully is on for 40% of his walks, this has increased to % 60 whilst we work on recall around wildlife, specifically deer. One popped up very close last week. He recalled away mid chase in under 20 seconds. But it's excited him. He loves tracking them more than ever. A little more training under our belt and we will be back to a mixture of off and on as per normal.
Reasons your dog may run off
Prey - if your dog chases prey or if prey chases your dog (livestock can charge at your dog if you are too close, in the same field or field peripheral)
Other dogs - being chased by another dog, invited to play or being abused are all real possibilities
Health - pain can cause dogs to run away or not respond to cues
Noises - backfiring cars, helicopters, ambulances or other unpredictable sounds can spook your dog
Natural Curiosity: Dogs are naturally curious and may run off to explore new sights, smells, and sounds.
Territory Expansion: Some dogs have a natural desire to expand their territory. Some naturally stay closer others are more driven by the instincts and interests.
What a great group!
So many puppy sponges ready to learn and fab owners showing up for their pups giving them the best start in life.
What's your type? Who would you want to take home?
These pups will be nice and sleepy for the football too. Anyway watching? @admiralpub1 have space for walk ins if your early.

Dogs love dog friends
What is your dog (choose the best fit, of course they can be in several groups)
We often hold dogs to a higher level of account - a social dog likes everyone, other dogs and people. This isn't the case or normal. Dogs like us can be
Hermit - unsocial - don't enjoy the company of dogs and or people.
Dinner party - socially tolerant - has friends but struggles with unknown dogs or people
Team player - socially selective - seeks social interactions, can read social cues. Can manage arousal with a little support.
Clubber- hyper social - can be frustrated and or misread other dogs.

How many didn't you know??
Tag a dog crazy friend - who knew more?
1. Old dogs can learn new tricks
2. Dogs can see colour - blue and yellow clearly
3. Dogs' Sense of Smell: A dog's sense of smell is estimated to be 10,000 to 100,000 times more sensitive than that of humans
4. Puppies' have a Socialization Window: Puppies are most receptive to socialization between 3 weeks and 14 weeks old.
5. Fear behaviors, sociability, separation related problems all have a genetic component
6. Dog Noses are Unique: Each dog's nose print is as unique as a human fingerprint.
7. Dogs' Paw Preference: Just like humans are left- or right-handed, dogs can be left- or right-pawed.
8. Dog training and behaviour is largely unregulated in the UK. Choose where you get advice from carefully.
9. Dogs' Communication Through Body Language: Dogs communicate through, facial expressions, and tail movements.
10. Dogs' Sense of Hearing: Dogs can hear frequencies ranging from 40 Hz to 60,000 Hz, compared to humans who hear from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz.
We've been planning

The hardest thing about our job is it's unregulated.
We strive to be qualified, regulated (there are organisations you can join #apst #imdt, #ppg) effective and ethical. Alot of the work we do over the years is undoing the damage of adversive training.

Extra content is shared in our stories where you can ask questions about... Dogs. If you are not dog people, sorry I'm not sure why you are here. Follow if you answered yes (to i'm a dog person too)
Dogs can really benefit from watching at a safe distance. Deri came toe
behaviour club class to do just this. We sat and watched the other dogs. He relaxed so much and settled with a little support and massages.

What accounts do you love. You can change the lives of many dogs by sharing good info. Be careful not to fall into the trap of sharing less sh*t info from trainers creates for shares. They then follow this up with Alpha, boss, naughty dog sh*te.

Pockets are life. So what would your dog carry?
I can't remember my outfit averaging 10+ most days.
Separate to pockets I'd recommend a treat bag- do you want some equipment recommendations

Bothered in levels/awards?
Weekend or evening classes?
