What a lovely surprise 🙂

We're delighted to announce that our Dog A.I.D. Trainer of the Month for November 2024 is Vicky Welsh!!! Congratulations Vicky 🤩🐶😍🥳
Vicky, of www.haveagooddog.co.uk is highly regarded by her Dog A.I.D. clients who said these lovely words about her coaching and support:
“Vicky is a great trainer, always ready to help and advise with any situation.”
and
“Without the outstanding training I received from Vicky I’m not sure Teddy would have coped; this last weekend has shown just how good her training is.
Teddy was a tribute to the way Vicky coached me to train Teddy. I can’t thank her enough”

Thank you so much Vicky, we are so grateful, we couldn't do our work without you. xx

Happy 10th Birthday to Lofty. We have picked today as we don't know his exact date of birth. His day started with Venison Pate on toast from Rothiemurchus Estate 😆

Lofty is loving his holiday in the Scotland Highlands. Let's see some pics of your snow dogs

Our next Follow On Course with available spaces starts on Sunday 19th January 2025 at 10am at Lanchester Community Centre, Newbiggen Lane, Lanchester, County Durham. Our follow-on five-week training courses are for young dogs aged under a year who have trained with Vicky before or recently completed a puppy training course with us. This course is not suitable for young dogs with behaviour issues.

During the Follow On course, we will teach you to teach your adolescent dog the following:

✅ Teaching them to walk on a loose lead.
✅ Learning about dog body language.
✅ Coping with the adolescent phase and how training may need to be adapted during this time.
✅ How to ensure your dog greets people without jumping up.
✅ Teaching an extended settle.
✅ How appropriate play with you can create a bond that will last a lifetime.
✅ How to focus on you in the presence of distractions.
✅ How to avoid problems over food and objects without using confrontational techniques.
✅ Teaching your dog to enjoy handling to prepare them for groomers and vets.

Your dog can receive the Association of Pet Dog Trainers Good Companion Award - a certificate and rosette at the end of the course.
Cost - £99

Fireworks can cause distress to many pets. 💔 The loud noises and flashing lights can be extremely stressful and frightening.

We invite you to pledge that you will not celebrate with fireworks this year.

I hope everyone from last night's Little Learners class got home ok. I had to do a couple of detours on the way back ☔️. I saw this post on another page. It wasn't quite as bad over Fulwell/Seaburn way.
