Working with little Lexi this morning. Her hunt and chase drive has sky rocketed 🚀 since she has hit adolescence and she is loving looking for critters both big 🦌 and small 🐦 🐰 which means we don’t see her much and her recall has gone from 👍🏻 to 👎🏻….
So today we changed the waking environment and showed her it was much more fun to play hunt the toy with us instead. She nailed it and I just love how happy she is. The lap of honour says it all!!!
Good girl Lexi, see you next week 💗
So lovely to receive such a great review from this amazing team. Cannot wait for more Winston cuddles soon 💖💖💖
I think Reggie has worked out where the best place to chill out is 😂… how are your dogs managing to keep cool?? 😎 🥵 🐶
🚀⚡️💥Zoomies!!!!!💥⚡️🚀
Hands up if your pup gets the zoomies 🙋🏻♀️!!
Now don’t get me wrong, I love zoomies, they really make me smile and Reggie gets them a lot 🤣
Zoomies can be mistaken for excess energy and being crazy which is sometimes true but often they mean more….
Often your pup is over stimulated or over tired or finding it all a bit too much.
Here we have been out walking for 40mins which is too long for Reg at the momwnt as he is not 6 months yet ( I was walking somewhere new and I got a bit lost!🤷♀️) so this zoom is actually Reggie saying
‘I’m knackered, please can we go home?’
(Which we did by the way!)
So, the point of this post is to remind us all…
Keep watching your dog and keep listening to them. They are always trying to talk to us in the only way they know… Behaviour is communication 💙💚
It’s these little micro-moments that are so important for me in guiding puppies and dogs to be the best that they can be…
I’m currently making a birthday cake for Hubby with a noisy mixer and Reggie comes to see what all the racket is about so I give him a treat… why???
✅ he learns to be calm around strange things
✅ he learns that scary noises are actually not scary
✅ he learns that calmness is a good decision
✅ he learns that calmness around food prep in the kitchen pays well
✅ he learns 4 feet on the floor is a great decision
And all I had to do was reach for a treat 😆
Good boy Reggie 💙
Reggie is getting much more confident on his walks now and learning to explore on his own 👌🏼💪🏼🥰
Reggie didn’t want to go for a walk today. He’d rather play with a plant pot and that’s fine by me ✌🏼
It’s a cold one out there today! 🐶 🥶
Loose Lead Walking practice this morning with Biscuit the 1year old cocker spaniel and Ruby the 6month old Golden Retriever.
Superb work. Didn’t they do well 🌟😇👌🏼💜
Now I don’t know about you, but this guy just makes me smile 😃
Such a fab recall session with Mr Biscuit, he aced it. He also reminded me to book my much needed post covid hair appointment as I was so jealous of his super shiny hair do 😍
Here is one of our puppy school graduates, Olive, showing off her tricks. She’s so clever! 🌟
(Sound on 😆)
Just because we are in Lockdown again doesn't mean we cant get your puppy off on the right paw...
