Happy Hounds Adventures

Happy Hounds Adventures Supportive scentwork, parkour & brain games. Having fun to create calm, confidence & a perfect bond. It can be done anywhere, and at any age.

The activities we offer help to build confidence and focus in your dog, working their brains and their bodies. Mental stimulation is so important for a dog's welfare and can make so much difference to their lives. It can help with various behaviour problems and helps strengthen the bond between you and your dog leading to a much better relationship. The great thing about scentwork is, it allows yo

ur dog to be themselves and let their personality shine. We work in partnership with our dogs, supporting them when necessary and creating a super sniffing detector team! Mantrailing can be particularly helpful for dog's who are fearful of Humans, and also those who are dog reactive as they work individually without other dogs around them. This is where we are teaching the dogs to search for a 'missing' person. Parkour is not only fun, but again can help with behaviour issues as some of the exercises are proven to change neural pathways in the brain. The dogs learn to navigate on to Exercises, over, under, around various different obstacles which are done slowly, giving the dog a chance to focus, and think. The exercises help build strength, body awareness and confidence. All of the activities we offer are a fun way to build a better relationship, and have a well balanced (excuse the pun) dog. We offer Scentwork, Parkour, Mantrailing (Lost & Found), 'Sherlock Bones' events, online trivia for you and your dog and a whole lot of fun

My latest Sally Talbot Wellbeing offering.....

😴 Struggling to fall asleep even though you’re absolutely KNACKERED?

☕ Running on caffeine and autopilot but still brain-foggy all day?

💥 Tired of feeling tired - but also ‘weirdly wired’?

Yeah. That. 🙄

We’ve been taught that rest is something we earn. Like, a reward we get for finishing EVERYTHING on the list.

But - and hear me out - what if rest ISN’T the reward… it’s the requirement?

What if slowing down is the most productive, powerful, life-giving thing you could do?

REST WITH SALLY is your permission slip to pause.

A 4 week cosy, snuggly sanctuary for your nervous system, your overstimulated brain and your soul.

Come join me to explore the ‘skill’ of deep rest (with ZERO guilt) through breathwork, mindset resets, Yoga Nidra and my super powerful tools, tricks and techniques. No you haven’t tried this before, yes you DO have time and I’m here to prove this to you.

This is your reminder that you are NOT a machine!

Doing LESS can actually give you MORE.

Don’t believe me? Even more reason to join, I love a challenge 😉

✅ 4 weeks to REST and RESET.
✅ Weekly live & pre-recorded resources.
✅ Reflection prompts + check-ins.
✅ 10 spaces ONLY!!!
💸 Just £77 for this round.

We start Saturday 1st Nov – Are you ready to reclaim your REST? You know where the keys to the castle are ⬇️

See you there, you’ll never regret a Rest With Sally.

🐾Wags & Wellbeing 🐾

This new class will give you the opportunity to walk and talk in a safe environment, drink tea, eat biscuits, and have a go at 'Fen's Fitness Fusion'.

This is my unique class which is a combination of canine conditioning (very similar to parkour) for you AND your dog.

It's all done in a circuit style class, so no pressure for you or your dog. The goal is to have FUN 😍

Yes I'm a qualified canine conditioning coach.

Yes I'm a qualified Parkour Instructor.

Yes I'm a qualified Fitness instructor.

Yes I'm a qualified Exercise to Music Instructor.

Yes I'm a qualified Yoga teacher.

You are in safe hands.

NO you don't have to be fit or have ever done any form of exercise ever in your life - just get your dog to do all of the work 🤣. They couldn't give two hoots what you can do, as long as you're enjoying your time together 🥰

There is Zero pressure to join in.

I want this to be somewhere you can 'drop in', feel safe, find your people, and take from the session whatever you choose.

First session 16th October nr Littleport, 10 - 11:15am.

Message me for info.

Join us over on instagram this Thursday as we chat about how the wellbeing of our dogs and ourselves go hand in hand......and many other things 😍

I’d love if you’d join Sally and me for our Insta live chat at 2pm GMT on Thursday 28 August. Sally is one of my TDS Elite Trainers but she is also a wellness coach. In this chat we will be discussing topics close to both our hearts, how looking after ourselves goes hand in hand with looking after our dogs, and vice versa! This chat will look at ways to assess how we’re doing, how our dogs are doing and what we can do to improve the wellness of both. That’s the plan anyway, knowing how our chats usually go, this chat could end up anywhere. You won’t want to miss it!

Baxter 🌈🐾💔

Baxter joined in our adventures at the age of 12. Putting himself to Parkour and Lost & Found like any of the youngsters.

He's climbed his last mountain, ever the intrepid explorer, and will be hugely missed by Shannon and the rest of his family.

Sleep tight Baxter 💜

🧡 For the Humans who might need some extra support, have lost their mojo, feel a bit stuck, have constant health niggles etc, I am offering a FREE online MEGAclass on Monday as part of my Sally Talbot Wellbeing offerings 🧡

"Have you had much trauma in your life?"

A question I was asked about 3 years ago which I replied with a very blazè "not really, just general life stuff" 🤷‍♀️

Sept '13 - My Mum was diagnosed with terminal cancer.

March '14 - Our dog, Merlin, started having cluster seizures.

April '14 - Our cat Brambles was run over outside our house and had to have her leg amputated.

Dec '14 - We lost Merlin to status epilepticus (it was horrific).

April '15 - Our dog Harry was diagnosed with cancer.

Sept '15 - We lost our Mum.

Sept - Oct '15 - I spent 3 - 4 weeks fighting to have Mum buried with her family in Littleport.

Aug '16 - Harry had to have emergency stomach surgery. 🔺️

July '17 - Harry's cancer returned. He had half a lung lobe and his thyroid removed.

Dec '17 - We lost Harry.

All of these were traumatic incidents in my life.

💪 I pushed on, because that's what you do. I thought it made me strong. Made me a warrior, and for that I was proud.

Ultimately, it made me ill.

I never acknowledged all that I'd been through, as many of us don't.

If we stop and face it then we might crumble, so we keep going.

However, your body will make you stop if you don't.
If you ignore its quiet nudges eventually it will have to SHOUT.

I underestimated the effect all of these things had on my Wellbeing.

I've learned (and am sometimes still learning) the lessons.
I understand my Nervous System and know the signs.
I make decisions from this place and put myself first.

Come and join my FREE online MEGAclass - Your Mischievous Mind, to have a better understanding of your Nervous System and the effects of 'stress' on your body.

And remember, you don't have to do life alone.

📅 Monday 21st July.
⏰️ 6:30pm via Zoom - replay is a given.
💶 FREE!

Huge congratulations to these teams who all passed their Talking Dogs Scentwork Accredited Handler Test today.

It was a bright and early start to beat the hot weather and they all coped fabulously well.

Well done everyone, I'm proud of you.
