🐾Happy Christmas🐾

From us to you - we hope everyone has a lovely Christmas, humans and doggos 🐶

Sorry I haven't been posting or training for a while. I'm now off the crutches and slowly getting around. But hopefully 2025 is going to see me signed off as fit and well to get back to doggo training 🤞

Watch this space for the return of our puppy classes and something new coming early 2025 👀

🐾🎄Christmas Foods🎄🐾

Little reminder as we start looking forward to our Christmas dinner and goodies. Not all of these are good for our dogs - so here's a quick reminder what we can and can't share with our dogs.

🐾Puppy Classes🐾

We still have a couple places left on our next course starting 13th Nov

Some of the things you can expect from our 5 week course;
🐾 Communication and handling - an understanding of your puppy’s body language.
🐾 Puppy focusing on you and dealing with distractions - other puppies and humans to name a couple!
🐾 Settling behaviours - for those all important visitors and visits to the [insert cafe, friends, pub 😆]
🐾 Lead Walking - skills to get ahead of your pup becoming an fully grown steam train!
🐾 Recall - for the confidence to enjoy off lead time.

More importantly our classes focus on teaching life skills, showing puppies how to behave in different situations. Through exercises, positive association and cues aimed to be 'multifunctional' in your dog training journey / toolbox 😉.

Our classes are held at
New Brancepeth Village Hall Association at 6pm

👃 Dog 'Nose' Things 👃

Did you know dogs can breathe in and out at the same time?!
When they sniff, air can go in and out simultaneously, creating a continuous air flow. Clever eh 🤩
Unlike us humans we can only do one at a time 🤷‍♀

Our dogs are literally designed to sniff and any dog can do it. Not only that it's a great activity to do with your dog;
🐾 enriching & mentally stimulating
🐾 reduces anxiety
🐾 low impact, can done anywhere
🐾 suitable for dogs of all sizes, ages and breeds

Why not get your dogs nose in gear and join one of our UK Sniffer Dogs, scent detection classes or workshops for pet dogs.

Up coming availability
Bronze/beginner level workshop part1, Sun 13th Oct or Sat 2nd Nov

🐾Switch off Sunday🐾

Dax threw a spanner in my plan for today - we were going to do some scent training videos after a nice walk on the fells (zoomie central). But, it was a no from him and that's ok 👍
Some days our dogs just need a chill/switch off day, for various reasons;
🐶 they trained / worked / walked their tail off the day before
🐶 they had a lot to process (emotionally) - big doggy date or maybe a not so pleasant meeting
🐶their routine has changed / in a different environment
🐶they've had medication / change of diet / been poorly
🐶 like us and maybe not feeling it / need a good day off from it all (I hear you!!!)

For Dax it was the first we, did some spontaneous 'bird' training yesterday on his walk - it was a lot but he was an absolute superstar 🤩. So it seems today he's in lazy cute mode, while he 'decompresses' yesterday's events.

👍That's a wrap👍

It's been a busy week, puppy classes and scent workshops done and dusted 🤩
It's always a pleasure but all the doggos brought their A game this week , so we ending on a high 🐶👌

Now for a well earned break with the main man Dax (we might take the husband too) 🤩

Any messages and emails will be responded on 30th Sept - but in the meantime take a look at what we have coming up......

🐶 Did you know?????🐶

🐕NATIONAL DOG WALKERS DAY🐕

A good dog walker is worth their weight in gold and for many people an essential member of your dogs team/gang/support (insert as applicable)👌

Now we don't offer dog walking, but as fellow doggo professionals we had to do a shout out to those awesome dog walkers. Including special shout out to Dax's walker Vicky dogscrateescape and our colleague Zuza - you guys are awesome 🤩

Also credit to Vicky for this fab pic of Dax from one of their adventures.📸

🐾All the puppies🐾

We met so many people and their lovely doggos at the North East Dog Festival - it was amazing to see so many well adjusted young doggos and puppies at that festival. I think the youngest to say hi was 16 weeks 🐶🤩

So you'd think we'd be all doggo'd out after a full on weekend at NEDF - but nope we rolling straight into our next course of puppy classes. If you recently brought a puppy into your life and want your new furry companion to be a well adjusted and happy dog - we have 2 spaces left on this course starting Wed at 5pm.

🐾North East Dog Festival 24 - That's a wrap🐾 So I'm finally all caught up with myself and thought I'd share this little montage from the weekend and some of our lovely visitors. We have so many pics though, it's by no means everyone 😲 I also wanted to give a shout out to our fab volunteers Zoe, Nikki, Mandy and Kathy for all their hard work over the weekend - meeting, greeting, being paparazzi and moral support - it was very much appreciated 😉 #northeastdogfestival #allthedogs #volunteersrock #dogtraining #positivereinforcement #scentworkfordogs #uksnifferdogs

Dax loves black labradors 🤩🐶🥰 #blacklabrador #dogslife #dogsofinstagram #bestbuddies #dogwalks

🥾🐾 Lovely sunny evening walks. It's great to take advantage of the lighter nights, walking at quieter times when you have sensitive doggo. Lots of sniffs, swimming and play. Scenery not too bad either 😊 #dogsofinstagram #dogwalking #reactivedog #northpennines #alldogsareindividuals

Poster boy is celebrating Happy Gotcha Day Daxy Dude - 4 years & we've got lots of plans in the pipeline, so what this space........ #rescuedogsofinstagram #mixedbreed #staffysmile #bestbuddy #strayaid #bulldoglife #dogtraining #durhamdogs

Useful recall
Useful recall

A good recall helps with many situations. For me, yesterday, it was to stop/slow down my hubby (I still have a bad ankle and cannot keep up with them)!!! Hubby may not be a good listener, but Dax sure is 🐾🐶👌 #recall #positivereinforcement #dogtraining #mybestpals #husbandneedsmorework #doglife #sprainedanklesucks
