Playing games, doing tricks and having fun, leads to a dog who wants to work with you.

If your dog doesn't like to play with you then you're missing out on an opportunity to build a better friendship.

Tug isn't a competition with one winner, it's a cooperative behaviour. If it's fun your dog will want to share with you. You can teach a drop cue later, first make it fun to bring stuff towards you :-)

It's sometimes hard to live with dogs. Their behaviour can force you to change your expectations of how your life will be with them. As a teenager Twiggy became very sensitive and reactive to many things, people and dogs. She was no longer safe to be free off lead. I spent a lot of time planning and searching for places where we could calmly observe the world together. Eventually she became sensible about most things and even became a helper with other reactive dogs, but joggers and cyclists were always her nemesis (because they approached silently and moved rapidly past), so where there was a risk then she was muzzled. She was such a good example of what can be achieved with patience and training. I will miss her so much.

It's a boring video of a dog just standing and sniffing. But she was close to death just 3 days ago. That evening, after a normal day she started acting strange, digging at her bed and pushing her head into corners, just an hour later she was collapsing. She had life saving surgery. She's spent 2 days on banks of drugs and intensive nursing and veterinary care. Now she's home, but not completely out of the woods. So actually it's the best video ever of a dog standing and sniffing!

Behaviour is driven by those consequences which provide the dog with the thing that they wanted in that moment. If the behaviour works to get the dog what they want then they'll do it again, even if you don't like it and even if you punish it. If a behaviour you hate is getting worse, or not improving it's because it is being rewarded (reinforced) by something, it's solving a problem for the dog or fulfilling a need for the dog. Example, if the dog finds food on the counter top once then it's worth checking to see if there is food there again, and again, ... In this video Dodo finds out that choosing to hold himself back from the food in my hand works, but trying to mug my hand doesn't work. New Year classes booking now -----> LittleTykesDogHub.as.me

Why we decided to risk everything...

Julie says: I have always lived with dogs, I can honestly say they have been my best friends, but one dog in particular caused me to change the direction of my life. Tyke was my problem dog who taught me so much and forced me to learn more. Because of him many who followed him had a better life with me, and many clients and their dogs have benefited. In dedication to this he has given his name to our new business.

After almost 30 years (yes I’m nearly 50 don’t tell anyone) of working as a Veterinary Nurse at the highest levels and gaining higher qualification why would I choose to walk away from it all and start my own business, I’m crazy right? The thing is I have wanted to do this for over 20 years, but I’ve always managed to find excuses not to do it, I didn’t have enough money, I wouldn’t be good enough, no one would come. But things have happened in my life recently to remind me that you only live once and sometimes not as long as you thought. Yes it’s a huge risk, but I’ll be doing something that I love, and still helping animals and their owners, just in a different way. I love behaviour and training and qualified with a Diploma in Companion Animal Behaviour and Training almost 15 years ago, but knowledge moves on rapidly, things I used to teach even 5 years ago are outdated now, which I why I am also studying for my Masters in Clinical Animal Behaviour. I want to understand why some methods are better than others, and I want to use that knowledge to bring owners and their dogs closer together. I believe that everyone should have the opportunity to experience true, honest, faithful love in their lives. The love of a dog.
