No Longer In the Dog House

Welcome to NLDH.

Areas covered North Leeds, & Wetherby District. No Longer in the Doghouse owned by Dawn Ash-Bunting BSc ABT. I'm proud to be a positive reward trainer with over 16 years hands on experience with all breeds of dogs. My work also includes working in the veterinary industry with behaviour and puppy training. After graduating with my BSc Degree in Dog Behaviour I continue to learn and gain new knowl

edge never standing still as our greater understanding of the dog world unfolds with new scientific research of our best friend. My ethos with every case is to look at the whole picture not just the behaviour and always using positive reward techniques to ensure a happy learning journey for the whole family. Together we will look at how your dog learns and how you can communicate with each other in a kind and effective way, making sure your dog's core needs are met such as enough sleep and using enrichment with nose and mind activities. I will provide you with new skills and knowledge which will ensure your dog is no longer in the dog house!

I cover North Leeds (Chapel Allerton, Roundhay, Adel, Meanwood) and Wetherby District (Collingham, Boston Spa) for 1-2-1 training with classes at Kirk Deighton near Wetherby. However, I do have clients in other areas - please contact me for more information. Dawn & Dexter

Welcome to The Barking Lot of Wetherby. At The Barking Lot, you won’t find sugar and additive-laden dog and cat food, or any with meat and animal derivatives (poor quality bits of unnamed animals). In fact, we don’t stock any dog or cat food with less than 20% REAL meat. Most people are shocked to discover that supermarket brands can contain only 4% meat! We specialise in healthy, natural food and treats for ALL your pets, as well as top quality training aids, toys, beds, leads, collars and accessories. We aren’t a big pet supply chain or a bulk discounters. Instead, we offer carefully selected, quality products, most of which are tested on or by our own pets. With direct access to pet nutritionists and trainers, we strive to keep informed of the latest advice in pet nutrition, health and well-being so we can pass this on to our customers. We won’t sell you anything we feel is unsafe or inappropriate for your particular pet. Above all, we offer customer service second to none.

Hello!

I just wanted to introduce myself ready for Christmas Paws on Saturday with Spaniel Rescue Foundation.

I will be on hand to answer any questions you may have about your dogs behaviour or training needs.

Plus join me for your dogs Best Party Trick at 12.30pm with prizes to be won.

Pop over and say hello 🐾

NLDH specialises in 1-2-1 training and behaviour support.

My background:

‘Working with animals has always been a passion of mine with dogs being a part of my everyday life.

My path crossed with Indy my Labrador who always went against the textbook of dog training and behaviour. Indy was fearful and reacted in difficult situations for her.

With Indy’s influence No Longer in the Doghouse was born and I took the step from student to trainer over 18 years ago. Dexter my working cocker spaniel is now keeping me on my toes!

Today I’am a experienced and qualified behaviourist with a degree in Applied Animal Behaviour and Training, specialising in canine behaviour. This includes various breeds and I also work with rescue dogs.

My other passion is understanding the health and wellbeing of our dogs with working within the Veterinary Industry for over 10 years ensures I can give you up to date knowledge on how health and diet are key factors in your dogs’ behaviour.

See you on Saturday

Dawn 🎄🐾

On Saturday I will be supporting SRF with hosting Christmas Paws as a joint event.

We aim to not only have a great day out for the family but also raise awareness for this charity so they can support the spaniels (and their humans) in need of their help.

All proceeds from the door entry, raffle, tombola and dog games are going direct to the charity.

We have some wonderful stalls that have also donated.

If you are popping along please remember to bring some cash for entry, some of the stalls etc.

Most of the stalls will have a card machine.

Spaniel Rescue Foundation was founded in 2023 and covers England, Wales and Scotland.

We are a rescue run entirely by volunteers who are dedicated to supporting owners and dogs in crisis.

The charity is managed by a team of trustees who ensure everything is working for the best interests of the dogs in our care and that everyone who comes in contact with the charity receives the compassionate, caring and supportive service they deserve. All trustees are also volunteers.

We are committed to supporting owners through difficult times, providing resources, advice, and information on alternatives to surrender. We are proud to work with a team of 40 canine professionals, made up of behaviourists, trainers, vets, vet nurses, groomers, walkers, dieticians and physios all volunteering time to provide support to owners in crisis.

Woofer’s Courtyard

Thank you for your raffle prize full of goodies.

At Woofer’s Courtyard we believe that dogs should be provided with ample choice for their day, Therefore this custom facility has been built with this in mind. We have 2 socialisation fields which are equipped with enrichment areas, areas for the dogs to socialise or places where they can go for quiet time. Each field is equipped with a large indoor area which is cosy in winter and cooled in summer. We often split these fields into “Tiny Town” for the smaller dogs or puppies (depending on mix that day) and a field for the more boisterous dogs.

Dexter living his best life. Happy Weekend Everyone #familytime

Meet little Autumn starting her recall training with dad. For safety she has her longline attached to her harness as the park has lots of distractions. Watch dad smash it when he waits to get her eye contact and then he goes into an movement game. Well done👏 Welcome to NLDH team 🐶 #dogtrainer #puppytraining #cockerspaniel #chapelallertondogs #chapelallerton

Great session with Izzy this week focusing on her walking around life and recalls. Happy and very fast girl which means at times she wants to run on her lead. I love her little Trott when she is in full flow. We have our secret key ready for when she fully goes off lead. More on this next time 🐶 #dogtraining #italiangreyhound #dogfriendlyleeds #dogtrainer

When Hattie doesn’t want the walk to end but loves the recall whistle. Why does she love it? Because it means come back fast for Chicken 😆 #dogtraining

Walking into the weekend with ease. Welcome Millie to NLDH She can be an cautious girl and needs a little bit of time to adjust. Mum has been doing really well at doing everything at her own pace. Now it’s time to build confidence up and practice Lifeskills at the right time like home walks first. It can be too much to walk in town and watch life when we are unsure so baby steps all the way. ✅ Sniffing on a walk to gather important information and also calm anxiety down. ✅ No tension on the lead. ✅ Balance of exploring and not pulling. ✅ Lots of praise and reward when we engage near our knees. Well done 👏👏 P.s - I usually use a harness to train at this age but Millie had grown out of hers so mum will be popping to @thebarkinglotuk Her lead is a tad to long also and keeps tripping her up but the main thing is that she wanted to go for a walk as previously she had been too worried to go out and about 🐾

Meet Kai 😍 He started his 1-2-1 Puppy Training this week focusing on not jumping up and we chatted about the importance of sleep. He has also been enjoying chasing the cat which mum was onto straight away. ✅ How to make both was safe and have their own areas. ✅ The cat was not distressed. ✅ More importantly Kai was not practising his chase techniques. I’am sure they will be the best of friends as Kai grows up and it’s essential we get it right from the start. NLDH 1-2-1 Puppy Training focuses on individual training & support areas for your home plus the important life skills to help you and your puppy. Well done Kai 👏 #puppytraining #dogtrainer #dogsarefamily #germanshepherdpuppy
