Dog Training with Amanda

Playing 'Find it' games when out on a walk adds a little something to the walk for your dog. We saw this wall and thought it was perfect for hiding little treats on and easy enough for her to find as she's not done this before. We want to set her up for success so helped her out with it. Remember, 15 mins of sniffing is equivalent to roughly an hours walk! So enriching (for most dogs!) What can you find on your walk to do with your dog that they enjoy?

What's the point in Soun & Twist? Well, it's a great way to learn how to manoeuvre your dog without yanking them around (No one wants to be a yanker!) It's also a really cool party trick - maybe not like this as Winnie jasnt ever sone this, but when they've got the hang of it and will do it just on cue, it looks pretty impressive! Post yoir spin and twist in the comments below!

Getting a dog to walk beautifully like this takes all of these things and more. 💙 You can't achieve this in a 5 week puppy class or a trainer coming to you for 1 session. The real magic happens between classes and sessions at home. What you do with your dog matters and makes a MASSIVE difference. ✨️ It's so nice when you and your dog master walking nicely - walks become so much more relaxed and enjoyable. 🩷 If you'd like help with walking nicely or any training, send me a message now. ⬇️ #crawley #horley #dogtrainer #puppytraining #puppyclasses

Ooooh, if anyone of you remember at the very end of summer I said I had a secret to keep..... Well, all will be revealed on Sunday! What do you think it might be? Best guesses below ⬇️

Going against popular belief amongst many pet owners! Socialisation is all these things! Imagine the supermarket car park for example. There's plenty of new smells - people (they may have other animals at home), passing traffic - cars, busses, motorbikes, trucks etc. Then there's noises like the trollies, people talking, laughing, kids jumping, shouting and more. The humble supermarket car park is a great place to take your pup. Please make sure you have them secured. Or sit in the car with them with the window open a little and let them smell and see everything and let learning happen!

It's been a funny old year for personal reasons and an awesome year for dogs and pups! And, on top of that, I feel like the year was only about 6 months long! 😂 There are new things in the pipelines for 2025, exciting things. New services and new training courses that will bring new things for me to help you and your dogs with. 🐶 I can't wait to see what these plans bring me! Meanwhile, let's all have a drink (even if its tea) and toast to the new beginnings that a new year brings us. 🥂 Stay safe ✨️ Amanda x

Puppy Class oh Puppy Class! 🩷 How gorgeous are they all? 🩵 An absolutely brilliant Class of amazing teams all working hard together. This week saw us doing a bit of a recap on some exercises from last week, some loose lead walking, some more recall and some polite greetings with other dogs. Teaching our dogs to not pull us to get to other dogs and be polite in their greetings is going to be really helpful - especially if your pup is going to grow a teeny bit bigger! Plus, it's just nicer! ❤️ #Crawley #horley #forcefreetrainer #dogtraining #puppytrainer #puppytraining #dogtrainer #puppyclasses
