Brand new cute as anything puppy class started last week. They have settled into class really well and we have been working on, luring, capturing and shaping behaviours. Including settle on a mat, focus, drop and handling.

Working with the absolutely gorgeous Daisy. She was recently adopted by her owner and has begun running quite a distance to chase birds. This obviously isn't very safe for her so we have put some control and management in place and we will be starting to work on her engagement around birds.
We have also been helping her to be calmer in the garden as she is barking at the fence.

Big Signs of Separation Anxiety

🐶 Barking, Whining or Howling.

🐶 Destructive behaviour and damage to exits. Often associated with attempts to escape.

🐶 Pacing or restlessness.

🐶 Drooling.

🐶 Toileting when alone, when otherwise toilet trained.

🐶 Not eating when home alone.

Your dog doesn't have to be displaying all these signs to be suffering from separation anxiety. If your dog is showing any of these signs do get in touch and we can have a chat about what your dog might be going through when you are not around.

We were chatting in puppy class last night about whether we should be walking our puppies or dogs when the temps are dropping below -0.
The picture below is a good guide and obviously if your puppy doesn't want to go they don't have to.
The risks are higher for puppies and small breeds.
If you do take them out when it's very cold keep it short but just like in extreme heat, no harm will come to miss some walks.
You could always provide some extra mental enrichment type activities instead.

Third session with the lovely Hunter. He was struggling with his emotions when seeing dogs and people. We have been working at distances he can cope with and implemented a training program to help him make good decisions around dogs.
The photos are not brilliant but he was watching a family with children and dogs which he previously would have found stressful. But as you can see in the last picture, he turns back to his owners.
They have worked really hard to make positive associations with his triggers, to let him get his head around things coming into his environment and rewarding when he chooses to disengage.
We have also been working on his recall and building his guardians confidence with giving him more freedom on a long line currently. Well done Hunter and his guardians 👏👏👏

This is so true!
I often explain to my clients that my dogs aren't perfect and neither would I want them to be. I don't want a robot dog who is too scared to move.
I am happy with my fizzy Spaniels who are free to be themselves.
They generally walk really nicely on the lead.
Come when called and are really chilled out at home or in a cafe.
But Poppy is a bit nervous of new people and dogs, so I try to always make sure she has the space she needs and the polar opposite Bear loves people. So he can get a bit giddy around people but we continue to work on that.
The key things are I make adjustments for them to help them be happy. I also want them to feel comfortable to express their emotions as I want to know if they are a bit stressed or overwhelmed. Rather than them be afraid to show emotion for fear of being punished.
