Does your dog love their ball a little too much?
Here's a video demonstrating an alternative game you can play.
We have worked super hard on recall, but pheasants are just too tempting.
I rewarded him heavily for coming back (even if it was a bit slow) and I have learnt that this walking spot is too hard of a distraction for him. If we return here I know to utilise my long line, and practice more engagement and recall. For now I am super proud of this lad as he has come a long way.

Check out this awesome loose lead walking.
Darcy joined us for puppy classes last year, and her owners have clearly continued with everything they learned. This little lady will be hopefully joining our group walks after we have got to know each other a bit more in solos.
It's so rewarding to see our pups and owners succeed.

Watch out and take extra care in the windy weather at the moment.
Double check your garden boundaries to make sure fences, walls, and bushes are still intact before you let you dog out.
The wind can also affect a dogs hearing, so keeping them closer or on a lead during a walk can help with this so it doesn't affect your recall
Wind can sometimes cause anxiety in dogs. It is a bit of a strange sensation being pushed by an invisible force.
On the other hand, you may find your dog goes a bit wild and may get the zoomies
Also be very careful in the areas you walk, especially in wooded areas, as there is the risk of falling trees. The same goes for wide, open, grassy areas where there is a risk of getting knocked over.

Settle and engagement games at classes tonight. All the puppies and owners did amazing.
Super proud of how they are all progressing

It's Mental Health Day
Our dogs play a massive part in helping us with our mental health
They get us up out of bed,
get us outside,
make us smile,
make us laugh,
shower us with love and
give us a sense of purpose
Be kind to yourself
Remember, your dog thinks you're awesome.
And if you are struggling, reach out and get help.
