📣 We get asked a lot of great questions (which we always welcome) here are some of the most common, along with the answers! 👇

🐾 “What’s your specialism?”
DOGS! We specialise in helping dogs live confidently and comfortably in the human world, from everyday life skills to behaviour work and specialist training like gundog training.

🐾 “Do I need a vet referral?”
Not always but for behaviour cases, especially those involving anxiety or aggression, we ethically need one to ensure your dog’s health and wellbeing are fully supported.

🐾 “What’s your practical experience?”
With over 24 years of hands-on experience, plus qualifications to back it up, we combine real-world knowledge with a solid academic foundation.

🐾 “What’s the extent of your knowledge?”
We stay up to date with the latest discoveries in canine behaviour and learning and bring that into practical, positive training that works in real life.

🐾 “What’s your approach to dogs?”
Kind, fair, consistent, and clear. Every dog is an individual and they deserve to be treated with respect and understanding.

🐾 “Do you turn any breeds away?”
Absolutely not. We work with all breeds, ages, and backgrounds. No judgment, just support.

🐾 “What motivation do you use?”
We use what motivates your dog whether that’s food, toys, play, or praise. A positive (but not permissive) approach is our foundation.

🐾 “Can you help me and my dog?”
If you’re committed, open to learning, and want to work in partnership with your dog we’d love to hear from you.

🧠 Our goal is simple: to help dogs live harmoniously in a human world. Everything else is a bonus.
💛 If you value welfare, kindness, consistency, and real results, you’re in the right place.

🏅 Huge Congratulations to Dennis & His Handler for achieving 2nd Place at the Large Münsterländer Gundog Working Test! 🎯🐾

This isn't just a lucky day out it's a testament to perseverance, consistency, and dedication to training. From their first puppy class back in 2019 to now competing at competitions, they’ve committed to learning, improving, and showing up week after week.

They’ve trained across a variety of classes, with us and other professionals, always striving to give their best. We couldn’t be prouder of how far they’ve come.

👏 Well done Dennis and team, your hard work is inspiring!

📣 Real Results Take Real Work

There are no cheats, quick fixes or magic leads in dog training. The progress you dream of comes from:
💪 Consistent effort
🎯 Clear goals
🧠 Understanding your dog’s needs
📚 Working with skilled trainers

Dennis’ story is proof that dedication pays off. Whether your goal is a calm pet at home or competing at a high level, it all starts with showing up, putting in the reps, and trusting the process.

Keep going. Progress is built, not bought, not forced by using detrimental methods. Be kind, consistent, considerate and put welfare first.

🐾 Loose Lead & Recall Legends! 🐾

We had an absolutely smashing workshop at St. Olaves the other week, focusing on two of the trickiest skills loose lead walking and recall and wow, did the dogs deliver!

Every single one worked their socks off (yes, even the cheeky ones!) and gave it their all. From focused heelwork to rocket-speed recalls, it was a joy to see so much progress packed into one session.

Huge well done to all the humans too your teamwork and timing were spot on 👏

Looking forward to seeing these skills shine out and about!

💦 Water training 🐾

A small group last night so Orianna came out for a little play. We haven’t done a lot with her for around two summers because she had some skin issues. A good training base means she hasn’t forgotten though.

She showed the younguns how to do it with some more grace 😂 😂

🎉 Progress in Action! 🎉

A brilliant session yesterday with this spaniel boy who’s been working hard on his training and dog-to-dog worries 💛 He’s been learning how to feel safe around other dogs and yesterday he absolutely smashed it!

Even better? We bumped into TWO other students. The first you see has also been on their own journeys with dog-to-dog struggles and they became the perfect helper!

🐾 In the first clip, check out the spaniel and the Lab X walking side by side, calmly and confidently. Both dogs have needed help in this area and just look at them now relaxed, focused and enjoying the moment.

🐶 In the second part, the spaniel meets a bigger dog, usually a much bigger trigger and keeps it together like a pro.

✨ Why is this sensational? Because it’s real progress, built on real effort. Each of these owners has committed to kind, consistent, conflict-free training. No quick fixes. Just thoughtful work and trusting partnerships. Methods that always consider the welfare of everyone in the partnership.

Also… can we appreciate the lead skills here? Loose leads all round 🙌

So much good stuff in one short clip. Proud doesn’t even cover it!

☀️ Too Hot for a Walk? No Problem! 🐾

When the sun’s blazing and pavements are sizzling, it’s best to give walkies a miss no one wants burnt paws or overheated pups!

But that doesn’t mean your dog has to be bored. Here are some cool (literally!) alternatives:

🧠 Play brain games indoors — think snuffle mats, treat puzzles or hide & seek with toys
🌬️ Do a bit of training in the shade or inside with the fan on
💧 Set up a paddling pool or get the hose out for splashy garden fun
🧊 Freeze treats in KONGs or ice cube trays for a refreshing nibble
🐾 Let them rest! Some lazy lounge time is absolutely fine in hot weather

Remember: if it’s too hot for you, it’s definitely too hot for them. Keep it chill and safe this summer 😎🐶
