A great first session with gorgeous Ronnie
Most spaniel breeds were bred to flush game out of the undergrowth so their noses are always down, searching for anything that moves, and they are always on the move. They are athletic dogs with loads of energy and find walking at the speed of their owners on a lead almost impossible, especially when they are young.
The key is giving them a job to do and focus on, praise and most importantly be CONSISTENT and REPETITIVE. They are such an intelligent breed. Too clever not to get it, IF training correctly
Always set your dog up for success
We literally spent 2 minutes on this so still a lot of repetition and desensitisation training needed but just wanted to show a behaviour is not going to change on its own, it grows as does the anxiety and fear. Reactivity comes in many forms, at times it starts in places you do not think is a problem, but it is! If your dogs reacts negatively to something Set your dog up for success and not failure, let them know you are there to protect them, show them what to do, show them with confidence. #gotyourback #fyp #behaviourist #dogtrainer #reactivity #reactivedog
We love a before and after session
You can and you will - repetition and consistency is the key to training
Keeping Your Dogs Safe on Fireworks Night 🐶🎆
Fireworks night is an exciting and dazzling time for humans, but for our furry friends, it can be downright terrifying. The loud booms and bright flashes can send dogs into a frenzy of fear and anxiety. As responsible pet owners, it's our duty to help them through this challenging evening. Here are some tips on how to keep your dogs safe and calm during fireworks night.
1. Create a Safe Haven:
Designate a quiet and secure space in your home where your dog can retreat to when the fireworks start. This can be a comfortable room with their bed, toys, and some soothing background noise like calming music or white noise to drown out the fireworks.
2. Stay Home with Your Dog:
If possible, stay home with your dog during fireworks displays. Your presence can provide them with a sense of security and comfort. Comforting words and petting can go a long way in reassuring your furry companion.
3. Use a ThunderShirt:
ThunderShirts are specially designed to wrap around your dog's torso, providing gentle, constant pressure that can help alleviate anxiety. These can be a great tool to keep your dog calm during fireworks.
4. Keep Your Dog Inside:
Ensure your dog is indoors and has access to their safe haven before the fireworks start. This will prevent them from running away in a panic due to the loud noises.
5. Close Curtains and Blinds:
Blocking out the visual stimuli of fireworks can help reduce your dog's anxiety. Close curtains and blinds to minimize the bright flashes of light.
6. ID and Microchipping:
Make sure your dog has proper identification, like a collar with an ID tag and a microchip. In case they do manage to escape, this will increase the chances of them being returned to you.
7. Distraction and Treats:
Keep your dog distracted with toys and treats during the fireworks. Offering them something enjoyable can help take their mind off the scary noises outside.
8. Consult Your Vet:
If your dog's fear of firework
