Meet Dougal 🐶
Dougal is a 12 week old West Highland Terrier pup, who attended today’s morning Educational Walk.
His owner is taking a very proactive approach knowing what she does with her puppy now impacts the type of behaviours he will display as an adult dog.
Appropriate socialisation with dogs, people, new things, etc. is one of the training aspects at the core of what we do at Dundee Dog Training. We love seeing new dogs come along.
Do you have a puppy?
Do you want a well-rounded adult dog who is calm and confident but can co-exist politely around people and other dogs?

Dogs in Winter
It’s freezing out there isn’t it?! 🥶
It’s tempting just to play a quick game of ball and get back to into the warmth but please do warm up those muscles first.
As someone involved in dog bites I can’t help but notice and have to sadly report an increase in nips, bites and hospitalisations since the clocks changed.
I can assume perhaps people aren’t walking their dogs as much as it’s darker or perhaps doing shorter walks. But exercise is vital to keeping our dogs sane and balanced. Imbalanced behaviour such as having a short fuse, quick to temper and being less tolerant of things can happen if a dog is under stimulated and endorphins are low. This bite increase could also be because of discomfort. Stiff muscles through lack of warm up and cool down can be painful as we know.
Walk your dog 5-10 mins before throwing their ball or frisbee and do the same before going in the car. If you’ve learned how to rub their muscles they use for running you can do that too. You can prevent injuries by taking the time before allowing sprinting and then for the body to recover and get rid of that lactic acid 🐾

This is the hiding or attempt to hide of a thing your dog likes but doesn’t want right now.
This was videoed as part of our Health & Wellness workshop this past weekend where we discuss biomechanics, offer a variety of supplements the dogs can pick for themselves as well as talking about the health benefits and even medicinal value of botanicals and their extracts.
They are very popular especially among dog lovers who want to be proactive in their healthcare. (Our next one is 4th December in the evening)
If you have a dog that caches hard chews that teeth clean you might want to feed a little less. For example my own dogs have one meal a day that is a hard meaty item such as dried tendon, trachea, lung, duck foot etc (as they are all different sizes they get different weights) but this makes up some of their daily calories and is NOT extra. Oral health is of utmost importance - more to come on that subject! So please do make sure their food isn’t just kibble or soft minces.
If you’re interested in learning more about nutrition and wellness for your dog, please drop us a message 🍵🪴
A little treat for you!
As you may know most of my time is spent training an army of dog experts so we have people who can help with dog issues all over the UK (and beyond!) I’m also writing courses for Honest Hounds for dog lovers everywhere to be able to take an wholistic approach to caring for their dog.
This course “Self Selection” is all about giving the dog choice over their supplements, animals know ‘what they need.’ The course is designed to help you understand more about botanical extracts, their history and how modern medicine uses plant extracts. You can start your journey understanding what you can give to your dog when it’s under the weather or has stressful episodes.
Did you know that ginger 🫚 has anti-nausea properties? I have used it with rescues for many years to help overcome car sickness!
We have made this course as a beautiful gift for Xmas for friends, family or yourself and your own dogs.
The online course is released 1st December and you receive a posted box with 6 oils and 6 plant extracts to follow the course with. You don’t have to be a member to do any of our courses.
Love & Light,
Jess Probst

The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel
Bring back the dogs that were bred to be family pets and who have high tolerance for children.
They don’t require many many hours of high level stimulation like the working dogs that have for reasons only of fashion, made their way into normalcy.
Please consider versions of dogs that are bred for their docile, kind nature especially for purposes of being with people who have complex needs or want companionship.
It breaks everyone’s heart when working breeds end up in homes where they will never have their breed needs met and serve no purpose other than wait for cuddles. There are breeds that thrive on that life and they don’t often end up in rescue with behavioural issues.
