( Belgium Mali )When I started training this beautiful boy I was told he has to be muzzled when out as heβs very aggressive to other dogs , after 12 weeks of training he plays beautifully with other dogs and has the sweetest temperament, he missed out on 3 crucial months of socialisation but heβs getting there and learning not to be scared & reactive , when I took him out for the first time 12 weeks ago he was petrified of everything , Ive taught him to trust me and with that and lots of love & positive training heβs doing amazing we got this /The Maligator π ) this video is the end of our session when he wants his belly rubs , leaning into me for affection tells me everything π

Just because thereβs a movie out with Channing Tatum and a Belgium Mali in doesnβt mean you need to rush out to get one cos itβs cool !!! Iβm Currently training 2 ( one is muzzled) ! And they need experienced handlers yes you will need to muzzle if not trained properly & are dangerous without the muzzle if not socialised at the right time . These beautiful , clever obedient dogs need lots of hours of training and work ! It wonβt be fun or cool and itβs not fair on them so donβt do it if your thinking of buying one on a whim as they are not for most homes , they canβt be left for hours on end to get bored they will destroy your home ! They are military and police working dogs Youβll be in over your head with a Mali so just donβt do it unless you seriously know what your doing and letting yourself in for .
Luna loves to walk in the woods πΏπππΎ
This beaut βBelgium Mali βheβs such a happy boy when out being active , so obedient and loves a cuddle π₯° doing great with socialisation β₯οΈ
I introduced my boy Hunter today to the beautiful Bailey ( I think this picture says it all ) πππΎπΎππ pure happiness πππΎπΎ
Puppy socialisation ( choose the right dogs for your puppy )
As a dog behaviouralist Iβm seeing this to often β¦.
Choosing the right dogs for your puppy to play with when you first start to go out is so important.
Choose the dogs and right environment you want to socialise your new puppy with is of utmost importance, if you have a choice of plenty of space and fields and you have your new precious puppy with you , please try to find the right dog thatβs not going to upset of distress your new puppies first experience in the big new world out there and even if you donβt have the space and your in a smaller area then with a large dog or a reactive dog coming your way , change direction, cross the rd or say to the other owner your not going to stop , if your new puppy has a few bad experiences to start with this can have a big impact on his / hers confidence and can effectively ruin what could be a happy confident dog into a nervous /aggressive dog when it gets older , remember to be that strong leader that your puppy needs , fight or flight is important and as they are on lead you must make that decision to take flight for your puppy to feel they have confidence in you to take control of situations as they are not able to , itβs really not necessary to meet every dog out there let your dog realise itβs not going to stop at every dog ,this also will become a problem as when your dog is off lead it will run up to every dog out there thinking this is what it should do and not every dog owner wants a puppy charging up to its dog on lead ( remember the dog on lead code π)
Exampleβ¦.
A German shepherd was off lead playing ball very happily with his owner in a gated field , there was a choice of many fields to go in but this young lad decided to bring his beautiful new very young puppy and take it off lead into this field with an off lead German shepherd! Is this a good decision? Is this a good choice as a dog owner? for your new precious baby to be up against! Would you pick a fight with Mike Tyson? Would you put your small son in a boxing ring with a professional fighter , stonger more powerful! He didnβt ask is your dog friendly, or wait for the owner to put his shepherd on lead of course it would be the owner of the shepherd that would have to pay the bill if your poor puppy got hurt but think about the lasting effects on your puppy , please think and ask before putting your puppy in that situation. Luckily the happy well trained minding his own business German shepherd didnβt do any physical damage but it probably really scared this small puppy when it went charging 100 miles per hour towards the dog when it spotted it ,luckily the shepherd owner had good control of his dog and was able to put him on lead with good recall but the puppy looked & acted petrified !! this is his owners fault he put him in that situation and thatβs not fair on his puppy .
Please think about the appropriate dog for your lovely new puppy as it can have terrible consequences in the long term , I have gone to many jobs now where peoples dogs have had similar experiences and worse and I feel itβs time the dog owners need to take responsibility for what they re doing to there new puppies as not all dogs are good with puppies , not all dogs are calm , not all dogs have had the perfect start in life and are still being trained and can be aggressive even on lead so donβt presume everyoneβs dog wants to say hello nicely to your lovely new puppy .
Thinkβ¦. is this the right dog for my puppy ? Ask the owner first - is your dog friendly from a distance ? Walk away from the bigger stronger dogs or the dogs that donβt look friendly ,size doesnβt always come into it , also dogs on lead (donβt let your puppy run up to them ) while your puppy is young this is so important and not ever should you allow your dog to run up to a dog on lead . Older dogs donβt want a puppy jumping all over them as well .
Please look after your new puppies well being and end the walk on a positive note each time , this way you will have a happy confident dog that will be excited to go on his next walk and not a terrified puppy thatβs afraid of the big scary world out there . Be that strong leader your puppy needs you to be πͺππΎ
Sometimes someone special just comes into your life and changes you for the better -ππππππππΎπΎπΎπΎπΎβ₯οΈ
Training Bailey the GSD - desensitisation to small prey ( squirrels, birds, rabbits & small dogs !! ) Iβve taken Bailey out twice a week since beginning of January and building a bond , engaging her with positive reinforcement and ball fun in an enclosed field , when she wants to chase she acts like she wants to kill her prey , Ive done alot of correction training each time she attempts to chase Iβve been correcting her ,today she slipped her lead and ran after a small dog to my horror ! β¦but to my total amazement I shouted Bailey Come at the top of my voice !!! Extremely loud !! she stopped in her tracks and straight away came trotting straight back to me and calmly let me pick her lead up !!! as she was walking towards me I was praising her with the most amount of positive positivity in my voice I could ever have ,just hopeful she would stop in front of me and when she did it was a revelation!!! So when your engaging with a dog and having fun just remember one day it will be worth the effort and today was that day ππ»ππ»ππ»π Bailey is amazing with people especially small children & babies she is like a therapy dog with humans so beautiful and calm ,her owner Marie had done a great job with her πso i will keep working on the small animals surrounding her with squirrels in the woods πand Iβm 200 percent convinced she will get there π€πΎπ
Training Luna the Staffie πΎ Iβve loved training and walking Luna (recall ,socialising, learning calm and (heal work is still work in progress)Luna has got such a funny quirky personality, sheβs very obedient and wants to please and do the right thing ππΎ once sheβs out of the car we have 10 mins of off the scale excitement which I very much allow to get it out of her system , taking in all the smells ,her nose going crazy, looking around to see if there are any other canines around to play with , sheβs always desperate to play with another dog so I make it my job to go out and find her a playmate on each walk and so far itβs all been super positive for Luna , she plays beautifully with other dogs and loves humans and always looks for approval and attention from the other dogs owner ( or treats !! ) as she gets super excited i take her to her favourite field to explore and and run , I put her on a 10 meter lead so she is not being pulled and has the space to explore and work off that initial excitement ,Luna has a high prey drive so itβs not advisable to have her off lead in the beginning & in certain areas as she has a tendency to disappear through small holes .
so far Luna has shown me excellent recall
She can engage with me and listens well , she has shown me she plays beautifully with other dogs off lead ( she loves big dogs - collieβs, St Bernard, Labradors are her favs so far and loves people very much and this week I discovered Luna loves water π¦ she has a beautiful spirit and I feel very happy to have met Luna and be able to work with her , her family have done an amazing job making Luna so friendly ,well rounded ,obedient and affectionate πΎπΎ Hayley Fox sheβs a little star ππ»ππ»ππ»βοΈ
Freedom of the forest π³ ( I trained each one of these dogs individually) before allowing them freedom of the forest together π recall training π 3 GSD puppies and a sproodle doodle doo πΆ
This was a recording from December, theyβve grown a lot since this was filmed .Raising 3 German shepherd puppies together has been an amazing experience ,Iβve loved every minute and I would do it all again ( apart from the poo and wee accidents with Sheba πππ) plus my darling sproodle of course has thrived with having a new Canine family she is totally the Boss girl of the shepherds.
News for SEPT 2022 we will have the mating of AYUNA ( Khaleesi) and FERNANDO (Hunter ) VOM KENNEL KHALEESI both from champion bloodlines more info will be given nearer the time β₯οΈβ₯οΈβ₯οΈβ₯οΈππ»ππ»ππ»ππ»
Itβs been an amazing week with work ,Iβve met Bailey the GSD , Hunter a Belgian malinois , Buddy the cocker liar-poo and Luna the staffie , they are all such beautiful canines with the kindest souls β₯οΈ reactive training / lead work /recall and socialisation , desensitisation, reinforce calm work , place work , one to one engagement to encourage confidence from separation anxiety / puppy consultation.
I really do have the best job in the world πβ₯οΈ
Which one is the male shepherd ? π ππΎπ
Early morning run off lead is the best ππΎππ₯Ά
Off lead distraction training ( reactive to birds , squirrels , dogs , joggers and cyclists) engaging her with a ball distracts her from wanting to do any of the chasing ( the joys of adolescence πππΎβ₯οΈπ)

GSD play time ( these 2 love a good scrap ) when we first arrive on our walk πππ»
When we got Khaleesi she did not understand English only Russian so after 4 days sheβs understands the word sit , come , down and her name recognition is starting ππππ»ππ»ππ» beautiful girl we are so proud of her sheβs doing amazing π₯
19 week old GSD Reactive training ( she likes to bark at people , warning them to stay away from her and me = us ! at the end she sat in silence for 10 seconds while the couple walked past then she got her reward π carried on walking nicely . Star girl πππ»ππ»ππ»
Figure of eight lead is amazing π€© if you have a dog that likes to pull or just a large breed dog that you find hard to walk this shows you how much control you can have , Iβve trained Hunter since he was 8 weeks old on Heal walking and heβs amazing but if Hunter wants to pull you would know about it !! Hunter is 35 kg and this shows you how easy it is to take a big dog out with zero pulling involved.
