Many people want to talk about “abuse” when they see a prong collar or an e-collar on a dog. But let’s be honest—where is the real abuse?

It’s not the training tool.
�It’s the dog that’s obese because their owner feeds them junk food and never exercises them.
�It’s the dog that sits in a backyard or crate with zero training, zero stimulation, and no connection with their human.�It’s the dog that gets neglected—not challenged, not walked, not given structure, and then ends up in a shelter because “he was too much to handle.”
A training tool, when used properly, isn’t abuse. In fact, it’s often the very thing that keeps a dog in their home, safe, happy, and well-adjusted.

Abuse is failing a dog by not giving them what they truly need: guidance, discipline, exercise, structure, and love.
We need to stop pointing fingers at responsible training methods and start addressing the very real epidemic of neglect and overfeeding that shortens dogs’ lives and ruins their relationships with people.

At the end of the day, ask yourself: Where is the abuse?

So many of my clients have stories very similar to this. It’s an experience that never leaves you 😔

Prevention is always better than cure

“Put a lead on” we are told - many of my previous and current clients DID have a lead on their dogs!

Leads can fail!

If you have a dog that is displaying dangerous levels of predation, add another layer of safety to your dog training 🙌🏼

The first photograph has been given the spotlight on the Kennel Club social media pages

The second photograph wasn’t covered at all by Kennel Clubs social media pages

The first photograph shows a technology advanced piece of equipment which is PROVEN to provide successful behaviour modification - there are zero charges or convictions in the UK, surrounding the use of this equipment!!

The second photograph shows complete neglect of welfare standards and abuse which resulted in the death of innocent dogs - yet, the incident did not manage to concern Kennel Club enough to highlight it

The first photograph pays tribute to ideological strategies and carries zero evidence to support their reasoning for a ban of this equipment

The second photograph shows ACTUAL neglect and abuse, resulting from a human beings lack of responsibility for not only his own dog, but his clients dogs 😔💔

Dog’s Trust - setting dogs up for failure yet again!

The ‘red flag’ sentence…..

“We have lick pads, shuffle balls, treat balls and a house full of toys”

The advice that will get someone bitten later down the line….

“Leave the room when they are biting”

No force free ‘behaviourist’ is complete without an out of control Border Collie, who can’t walk on a lead, doesn’t recall and instigates fights with dogs who are minding their own business 🥳🥴

Here, we see a fantastic demonstration of The Mutty Professor showing off her ‘R+’ training skills, with her own Border Collie and checking all of the above boxes ✅

It’s hypocrisy at its finest! She clearly didn’t think this through 🥴

What happens when owners listen to their trainers advice and commit to the training!?!

They smash it ⭐️

This beautiful young Bull Lurcher and his owners are definitely on the right track!

Genetic fulfilment, adequate rest, correct nutrition, clarity of expectations, crate training, recall training, PLAY = a recipe for success

A young couple, with a young baby and a puppy, doing things right 🙌🏼

Fortunately, I am blocked by The Mutty Professor - apparently she just couldn’t understand how a dog trainer with academic credentials (that exceed her own credentials) would choose to use aversive method!

However, the 12 words coming out of her mouth from this post of Jacks, is enough for me to understand the narrative 🤦🏼‍♀️🥴 And Jacks response is spot on 👌🏼

Pretty similar to Dr. Zazie Todd’s nonsense that she spluttered on ZG’s podcast clip yesterday - along the lines of ‘it’s bad for the dogs welfare to be hanging out with a person who has used aversion on them’

Sooooo, currently, I am sat in the garden with Chico (40 odd kg GSD) letting him out for a garden break while his owner is at the office (I trained with Chico using ecollar for recall) Haven’t seen him for a while, I let myself into the kitchen, he greeted me without suspicion and we’ve played with his snake toy in the garden!

Chico says bo****ks to the insanity, we’re all good over here 🙌🏼🐾🐕🩵

Client updates and feedback are an essential part of a training journey!

As trainers, it’s vital for us to offer guidance and support, outside of in person sessions

Giving your dog consistent feedback is just as important!

Willow’s resource guarding was resolved using the power of relationship! Enabling a clear ‘YES’ and a clear ‘NO’

Permission is important! It allows for your dog to have ‘safe’ access to things! It also removes the possibility of conflicts!

Congratulations to Willow and her wonderful owner ⭐️🐾
