Last week was my final week of dog walking with Jordanna’s Pet Care! There’s no one I would rather run a business with and for all the ups and downs over the past couple of years we really have built a community within our client base that I am proud to be a part of. None of it would have been possible without my amazing work wife so thank you for being the admin queen, keeping me focused and everything inbetween💛

I am now training full time, covering the North of England and Scotland🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 and I cannot wait to share what future plans we have. Without the continued support of my customers none of this would have been possible so I am truly grateful for all of you and your dogs that I have been lucky enough to meet along the way❤️‍🔥

Xion is a nervous dog who looks for help in unsure situations as he lacks the confidence to do so off of his own back. We removed the handler help by giving him a break to allow him to watch a dog that understands this behaviour. In a short space of time Xion observed and began to puzzle the pieces together for himself and can start to build his confidence.

Emily booked Mabel onto our Puppy Foundations package at 12 weeks old and since then the two have gone from strength to strength. Mabel is coming up to 1 and has excelled in all aspects, taking all of the training in her stride. Such as loose lead walking, off lead recall, engaging with Emily around distractions, etc. We are super proud of how far they have come and cannot wait to continue their journey!

This week we held our first monthly meet up and it couldn’t have gone better! The meet ups are a chance for clients to get together and have some fun in a pressure free environment. Great for people to put faces to names and support each other along the way. Super proud of all that attended and the progress they made, cannot wait for the next.

Step 3 in looking at reactivity is

Sleep! 😴

So often when we see clients, their dogs are on the go from the minute their owners get up until they go to bed. Dogs need on average, atleast 16 hours sleep a day, ideally more. People generally scoff when we say that! But if your dog isn’t getting that much sleep, we’d recommend utilising the crate more, using enforced boundaries or house tethers. I’d say most dogs we see get about 10 hours sleep a day. Imagine yourself running on 4 hours sleep a night, day in day out for months if not years on end. I think we can all agree our mood would take a significant nose dive.

Why so much sleep you ask? Just like ourselves, sleep is crucial for immune function, metabolism, cognitive health and other vital functions. So essentially, a dog learns and processes events when they sleep. No sleep, no learning, no progression in training.

Going back to step one - pain, sufficient sleep can also help reduce inflammatory proteins in the blood and therefore help with inflammation and reducing pain. And we now all know the impact pain can have on behaviour! 😖

So whilst step one, two and three should be addressed separately, they are all so inextricably linked that they all begin to affect each other. Too much pain can lead to loss of appetite & reduction of sleep. Poor quality diet can lead health problems and cause restlessness. Not enough sleep can affect the bodies ability to heal and develop - mentally and physically, whilst impacting the metabolism.

Effective dog training should always look at the whole picture, not just the “problem”.

Reggie’s big day out.

Raising a puppy can be hard, particularly with work and life commitments that can’t be put on hold.
So Reggie here is taking full advantage of our raise and train day boarding programme!
Pre-adolescence is a crucial time of development that you unfortunately cannot get back, so it’s important to expose your puppy in a correct and appropriate matter for socialising and neutrality. DM to ask how we can help today!

Enjoying some downtime with my girl. It’s easy to get lost in work so it’s nice to take some time out to appreciate her and let her have some fun! I love the free times we share.

When I first met Georgia it was clear how much she loved Diego, but doing almost anything with him was a chore. They’ve had plenty of ups and downs but she has refused to give up on Diego and his reactivity despite being 8 months pregnant!

She has pushed through the down days of not wanting to step out of the house for fear he would react to multiple stimulus. But hasn’t given up on him or used the pregnancy as an excuse. She keeps motivated by enjoying her journey, maintaining focusing on her goals and sharing their wins, understanding that perfection is perception and the most important thing is the relationship between dog and handler. She is eager to learn and is always asking questions and from this it is a joy to watch her train and really enjoy her dog. No excuses, just results.

Lesson 1 with Peggy - laying the foundations ready for engagement out of the house and helping her overcome her problems with being handled and groomed.
She’s a very fun little girl with heaps of energy that we are going to put to good use!

Fresh White Collar

Obsidian BLCKs latest white collar is the big Mr Cain!

Cole travels down all the way from Scotland to train with us, and that's dedication in itself! She works super hard and has really started diving into things much deeper in her head.

Cain has made some great progress so far! He is learning to settle in his protection work, his obedience is improving by the week and they are making great steps in the right direction!

I'm really excited to see what the next chapter is for these guys and I am absolutely positive they will keep flourishing! Great work guys!!

So proud of my girls🤍
