🐾 Monthly Collie Club- predatory play – 22nd February, 9am-12pm 🐾

Join us for our next Collie Club session where we’ll explore predatory play and how to engage your dog in structured, fun activities that tap into their natural instincts.

Predatory play in dogs involves stalking, chasing, pouncing, and mouthing in a playful, non-aggressive way. It’s a great way to give your dog both mental and physical stimulation while satisfying their natural behaviours.

In this workshop, we’ll help you:
✔️ Understand and recognise predatory play
✔️ Unlock your dog’s potential through structured play
✔️ Establish boundaries and self-control for a positive play experience

JED ☘️

We met this handsome boy last week, he is coming into adolescence and he is starting to push his boundaries. We looked at how to maintain these, such as manners around guests, building reliable off switch and refreshing some of his basics like recall!

We had the pleasure to meet his handsome chap to help build some collie specific outlets for him, and help him overcome his worry around traffic 🚗

He was a joy to train and a very quick learner, we are excited to see his progress ❤️

Each of the dogs had their own aims to work on whether it was keeping focused around dogs, not chasing things that move quickly or managing themselves in states of arousal, we tailored the session to their needs.

It was great to see some new faces and old! Sorry we didn’t get everyone picture we are totally rubbish, and only remembered in the last 15 min 🙄

Next month we are looking at Predatory play and in March it’s Scent work for herders!
