Happy 4 year Gotcha Day to our Spanish Señora Reyna 💛 Our ‘foster’ who stuck around 💛
Terrified of everything when she arrived, including us, and now scared of some things but also the most loyal and gentle hound 💛 Perfect companion for Ivy and a wonderful Nanny dog to Astrid 💛 The last photo shows her just after she arrived at our home 4 years ago 💛

Spent a lovely morning with Sausages Isla and Skye today 💜

We visited a Freedom field so they could have a good run around and explore. It was their first time in one and they had a ball 🩷

As well as giving them a good amount of time to sniff about, we worked on recall, engagement on walks, stay … and did some confidence building with the agility equipment 💛

I’m really enjoying working with this group - Isla and Skye are just two of four Dachshunds in their house - and their owner is so dedicated and doing excellent work. Well done Team Sausage 😆👏

I’m really looking forward to watching this pup develop. Well done Team Maggie! 👏

Round 2 *ding ding ding* 🔔

In less that 4 months our family will be growing again - I think poor Ivy and Reyna are about ready to pack up their bindles and move out 🙈

I’ve been a bit quiet of late as the morning sickness has been rough - also the narrative that it’s just mornings and only lasts for 12 weeks is LIES 😅 Feeling a bit brighter now though and getting out into the world when I can 💖

I’ll be working until the end of July so please get in touch if any dog related conundrums you would like assistance with. Areas of specialty include -

🐾 Separation Anxiety support
🐾 Building confidence in nervous dogs
🐾 1:1 puppy training
🐾 Preparing your dog for a baby/ toddler (KAD approved trainer)

🐾 I will also be resuming some social walks for our nervous/reactive pooches

I’ve just got in from a LOVELY session today with a Frenchie in working on recall and engagement when outside - the sun was shining and I’m looking forward to *hopefully* a few drier and warmer months ahead 🤞🤞🤞

Something lovely happened recently - I had not on but two ex clients of mine from when I lived in Fulham get in touch. With both clients I had provided puppy training and now both clients were pregnant and wanting to prepare their dogs for the arrival of baby ☺️

In both cases there was around 4 months until the arrival which is perfect, plenty of time! 🐾

This is a topic close to my heart (and my experience 😅) and I love working with people who are taking the time to ready their dog for the change that lies ahead 🐶 I’m also an approved trainer with KAD (Kids Around Dogs)

Some things we discussed -

🩵 changes in sleeping arrangements / space management that would need to happen and how to slowly implement them ahead of time

💜 preparing their dog for the different noises they’d be hearing and the different objects that will be arriving, especially things that move/ light up / vibrate etc

💛working on essential skills training such as ‘stay’ and ‘leave it’ which will be super helpful!

🩷having a plan in place for the labour for who is going to look after pooch … and a plan B for good measure!

💚safe introductions of dog and baby

I’m so excited for both of my couples and honoured to have followed them along this journey from when their pups were teeny tiny 🥹

If you’re looking for advice on preparing your dog for the arrival of baby or need help with your dog and baby/ toddler / child in the home then please do get in touch 🐾

Happy 5 year Gotcha Day to Ivy! 💚

Can’t believe it’s been 5 years since Ivy arrived - stole our pizza, jumped on our bed and made herself right at home 😂

After years in the racing industry I would say she more than deserved some comfort 🐾

Last photo shows her on her first night with us. She has a lot more grey now and a lot fewer teeth (rip teef 😞) She also over the years has gotten used to living with Reyna, a flock of chickens and a tiny loud human 👶🏻

We’re very proud of our girl. Little Sass Pot, Little Alligator 🐊😂

Happy 5 years Ivy - I really hope we have another 5 more 💚

Here are some of my latest Puppy Graduates 🎓

Little Luna the terrier couldn’t make the last session but in the photos we have Bob the Dachshund , Bear and Loki the littermate Staffies, and Captain the Boerboel 🐶

All the pups did so well and we completed the course on Saturday with a Graduation Walk 🥹

My next Life Skills Puppy Course has a changed day of Saturday mornings - commencing January 20th! I have a couple of spaces left so do spread the word if you have or know anyone with a pup looking for group training and to start them off on the right paw 🐾
