FIDO Dog Training Club & Behaviourist

Think about dogs when they are relied upon to be a support for emotional issues, how much time off do they get? Do they get the opportunity to fully decompress, they will be there for us when we need them but are we there for them? Click on the link to see the clip.

Worth reading for ALL dogs and puppies, playgroups, daycares, ‘pack walks’ are not the places to socialise them, I wrote an article about just this subject about 8yrs ago.
If you are concerned about your dog or puppy and their interaction with other dogs or people, then contact a QUALIFIED behaviourist who will take on board the emotional well being of your canine pal and not use anything that will cause them any further stress such as slip leads or ‘Garot’ collars, (that tighten around the dogs throat in the same way a choke chain would), no prong collars and no e-collars, if a ‘professional’ needs to use any of these, they do not understand dogs.
Look at www.icbdogs.com for the right behaviourist in your area, ‘Welfare Never Compromised’.

Working in the park across from the park, children playing, people sitting in benches, trains running above and later on, a choir!

Working outdoors in park across from the club, the majority is an on lead park so we have to ensure that plenty of practise is put in.

Five excitable working breeds working across the hall together lead free, all done using positive reinforcement only.

Most of the dogs have never heard a clicker before so we did some preconditioning, focus, feet on a step and ‘on your mat’, excellent first session 🙂👍

I have no idea what is happening to the photos I post, I know I have already put some of these up but can’t find them anywhere🤯, if anyone has any idea where they are, please give me a hint, I can’t even find up to date albums 🙁

Dolly doesn’t usually have to contend with stairs, having none at home and a lift used anywhere else so this was a new challenge which she excelled at😊👍
