More about pain !!

Teaching owners to recognise signs their dog is in pain is an ongoing and lifelong commitment for me.

Dogs are exceptionally good at hiding pain and owners are sadly very good at either not seeing the subtle signs or choosing to ignore them. This creates the perfect storm.

Naturally, owners don’t want to feel that their dog is in pain or suffering so they don’t see it. This is known as perception bias and is now thankfully becoming much more widely recognised. Of course you want your dog to be well and happy, we all do ….but in some cases this can lead to denial and avoidance of seeking help for issues that are right there in front of you. Sadly I see this day in day out.

On top of this ,often the changes that come with chronic pain are so subtle and develop so slowly over time that owners don’t pick up on these changes at all and they are considered the new normal and therefore go untreated.

Remember ‼️

Dogs will rarely vocalise chronic pain (whimpering, yelping, whining).
Limping is a more obvious sign something is wrong but your dog could display his pain in other subtle ways.

Things to look out for include:

✅Sleeping more
✅More reluctance to walk
✅Reluctance to play
✅Not wanting to go up stairs
✅Not wanting to jump on the sofa
✅Not wanting to walk on slippy floors
✅Being more clingy with you (often mistaken as being more loving so owners see it as a positive trait in their dog)
✅Wanting to spend more time alone
✅Changes in their coat
✅Changes in how they move/ sit/ stand
✅Being more grumpy with other dogs or people
✅Becoming more anxious
✅Excessive grooming
✅Noise sensitivity

Remember ‼️ when you are in pain you have options- you can take some pain medications, you can alter your daily activities, you can go and see a doctor or a specialist for advice.

When your dog is in pain he doesn’t have these options. He relies on you to do the best by him.
It is your choice if you want to ignore your dogs pain or if you want to help him .

Choose to help him /her 🐾

Please share to spread the word!

How inspiring meeting Ollie Hynd yesterday and hearing how he overcame many challenges to win several Paralympic gold medals and broke a world record! Really brought it home that if you want something enough and keep your eye on the goal then anything is possible, no matter how hard it is (and it will be hard). Whether it’s sport, business, or dog training. It always come back to the dog 🤣. It really inspired me in my small business 💪🏻💪🏻. Thankyou

Nicola and Reggie have done so well at puppy school 🐾🤩
They have learnt the first stages of recall, down, ‘find it’, focus on Nicola, leave it, preventing biting and jumping up and some basic lead work. They have been very busy 💪🏻💪🏻😊 The group have also shared their puppy struggles as it’s so much easier when you know that everyone is in it together 🙏😊

It was great to meet 13 week old Cooper the cockapoo today, such a lovely pup. His parents were worrying about toileting, nipping and over excitement. He did great today and by the end of it was happily going to his bed to relax rather than jumping on the sofa and running around. His parents said they felt a lot better about training already. 😃

I've just driven past a man on a walk with his dog, the dog was stressed and lunging towards a dog on the other side of the street. The man was clearly struggling and didn't know what to do so hit the dog on the head. To see this play out was quite sad. Is your dog reactive to other dogs or people, lunging and pulling towards them? This is a common problem.
Luckily there are so many things that we can do to make things easier for both you and your dog.
If you would like help with this please get in touch. You won't regret it 💪😊🐾🐾🦮🦮

This is the gorgeous Cooper 💙 In his previous home Cooper never left the house 🥲. So now with his new forever family he is finding lead walking and the presence of dogs on walks very challenging. We are working together to help him learn to cope with all the exciting stuff outdoors on walks. He is already doing so well with lead walking and we are now working on his calmness around dogs.
