Bailey is full of teenage spirit this week 🙊
Despite this, this morning we had a successful session. We stripped the session right back to going over basics again especially as the environment was busier than usual due to an event being set up.

With teenagers it's important to revisit and repeat easier exercises if they are going through a little phase of regression and manage the environment as best as we can so that it's not too difficult with distractions.

Churro the labraseal 🦭❤️

Lovely evening with Churro and his owners. We are taking our time going through lots of ways to help this gorgeous boy navigate through his adolescence. We've been working on loose lead walking, disengagement and some recall. We are now looking at calmness and settling in the house. He's quick to learn; as are his owners and it's wonderful seeing this team progress 🙌🏻🐾 can't believe we are half way through our sessions already!

Chewy had his first session all about recall tonight and he was an absolute super star ✨ we started off in a low distraction area working on some basics before moving into more challenging spaces. Can't wait to see him progress over his next couple of sessions 🤎🤎🤎

Lexi had her 3rd session tonight. We've been working on her lead frustration and she's really coming on well! Her owners have been doing an excellent job monitoring the environments that they are in and utilising the space to help Lexi out! We still have a wee way to go and that's okay. It can take more time than we would like to reach our ultimate goals but as long as you are making steps forward no matter how big of small, that's the most important thing ✨🐾

Ziggy and his owners had their first 1:1 this evening and we were focusing on getting back to basics with his loose lead walking. He's navigating through his adolescence just now and needs time, patience and consistency from his owners, which they are doing a great job of providing already. Excited to see how this wee team progress 🐾✨

Hope everyone is having a cosy Saturday away from all this rain - just like wee Daisy ☔

With the miserable weather here I just wanted to quickly talk about session cancellations. I do not cancel sessions if it is raining (comes with the job) unless there is a danger when driving and I physically cannot get to you. I understand that some dogs do not like/can't focus properly in rainy conditions however, it is really important that you give at least 48hours notice if you wish to cancel. I put a lot of time and effort prior to sessions and unfortunately I have been getting some cancellations an hour before they are meant to take place. This can be disheartening as some people who are waiting to have sessions booked have ultimately missed out, it is a waste of fuel and time in terms of getting reports and notes out to other clients.

Please give at least 48 hours notice otherwise you will still be charged for the session.

Sorry for a wee moan on an already dreich day but it is just a wee bit frustrating xx

With Halloween just around the corner here's a few things to think about just now when it comes to your pooches 👻

🕷️ Make sure you have a good secure cupboard to store all your sweet treats to avoid any accidental midnight munchies which could end up with a spooky visit to the vet as many treats are toxic to dogs!

🕷️ If you do dress up your dogs ensure that costumes are not causing abrasions, overheating or any other discomfort. Assess whether your dog is happy about being put in a costume. Some aren't and if that's the case, leave them be 🧙‍♀️

🕷️If you live in an area where you know you will get trick or treaters, think about access to your front door. Costumes can be very scary for dogs so perhaps have them in a nice calm area of their home or attach them to a lead in case they bolt ⚡

🕷️If your dog is reactive when it comes to the front door it would be advised to just pop up a wee sign saying not to knock or ring doorbell and leave some sweet treats for people to take somewhere safe by your door.

🕷️If you are wearing a costume, to avoid your dog being fearful of you set some time aside to desensitize your dog from items so that they are happier and not stressed (this also applies to new decorations they haven't seen before).

🕷️Hosting a party at your house? Always ensure your dog has a comfortable and quiet place to retreat to. Even if they don't mind costumes etc they may want to go and chill out.

🕷️Let children know not to jump out and spook your dog and to give them space (for both of their safety) 🐕

These closure dates are for Woofs in Training only as I will be on annual leave. This does NOT include daycare, grooming etc with Woofs & Whiskers.

Many Thanks 🤗

Happy Saturday 🐾

I wanted to talk a little about reactive dogs! Reactivity can be mistaken for aggression (although this can develop into aggression if left to fester) as a fear of something can be the drive for their behaviour to occur. It is so important to be consistent and use lots of positive training to help a reactive dog.
Muzzles are an excellent tool to use if it is fitted correctly and used appropriately. Take Jimmy here as an example. His owner uses a muzzle to prevent bites from happening which is a responsible approach to how Jimmy can sometimes feel around some dogs and occasionally people. Especially as on some occasions other off lead dogs with poor social skills and recall can cause concern and quickly turn a calm situation into a pretty tense one.
I have been working with Jimmy for a while now and mainly focus on decompression sessions which have benefitted his overall wellbeing and joy for life 🙌
It is important to constantly assess the environment you are in with a reactive dog, and your responsibility to take them into situations/environments that they will be comfortable in.

Please remember a reactive dog isn't a bad dog 🐶💕

Did you know... I specialise in Canine Body Language 🙌 always looking to increase my knowledge wherever I can to make myself the best trainer I can be. Dogs often give off signals that can be ever so subtle and it's important we pick up on them to better training for them ❤️

07/06/2023

Last night I was busy teaching our staff all about canine body language. I must admit it is such a complex area that condensing it all was extremely difficult but what a lovely evening we had! Thank you to the team for coming along and furthering their knowledge 📚🧠🐶🐾

23/05/2023

Campbell and I came across this message in the park today! Made me smile! Just remember when you are training your dog.... You ARE good enough - You CAN do it 💕

06/03/2023

⚠️Clients from Thursday to Saturday this week please read⚠️

I have sent messages to you all but just in case they are missed purely as a precaution there is a wee risk that I may not be able to attend sessions due to driving conditions. I really hope it comes to nothing but would rather mention it just incase!

Many Thanks,
Gayle 😊
