6 week Puppy School - starting 6th October 6pm @ Penybont Community Centre

After taking a break from hosting classes, I'm very pleased to say thay puppy school will be starting up again in October.

These 6 weeks are designed to equip you with the knowledge to communicate effectively with your pup, teach you the basic cues and set you off on the right foot with your training.

New for this puppy school is a week of enrichment tools and guidance in how to entertain your pup during their first couple of months when long walks are not on the cards due to their growth plates.

We also discuss myths and talk about a few law related subjects that all dog owners should be aware of.

If youre interested in coming along, please get in touch by messaging the page or feel free to WhatsApp me on 07443980292 🫶

If youd like to hear what past puppy school graduates have thought, take a look at the reviews 😁

Tonight was the last night of the Next Steps Scentwork classes. Throughout the 6 weeks we have been doing timed trials, acquiring points with every timed search. This week we added up the points and crowned the 'Top Sniffer' of each class!

In the 6-7pm class, Tilly took the title 🏆
Tilly spent her 6 weeks with Emily, Joey & Sonny. The scores really did come down to the final timed search this evening!

In the 7-8pm class, Ajia stormed ahead 🏆
Ajia was joined by Beginners class bestie, Sid and a new friend, Penny.

Both classes have been great and I look forward to the future searches we tackle 💪

After a busy couple of months with lambing, holidays and general life getting in the way, things finally feel as though they’re resuming to normal! Apologies for the radio silence 😅

Next Steps Scentwork is currently underway and I am in the process of sorting another beginners class for later in the year 🥳

Alongside bouts of pet sitting and horse clipping, it’s going to be a busy year 🫶

Last week Bertie passed his Puppy School Assessment so this week we worked on advancing what he already knows. We did lots of wait for food and recall, as well as looking at other small useful cues.

Here he is demonstrating how good his ‘wait’ cue is. At only 6 months old he is a little superstar 🌟

Sonny is a very happy and energetic young man, his passion for scentwork is very clear 😅

It is a pleasure having him in class and his positive energy is contagious. His exuberant nature makes us smile and sometimes leaves us laughing.

Sonny is doing very well with his searching and I am excited to see what he brings to the next stage class 😄

Here is Emily showing her enthusiasm for Scentwork last night.

During the first couple of weeks Emily was struggling with her confidence in the group setting despite excelling with her searching at home.

Week 5 saw her really come out of her shell in class and really thoroughly enjoy herself and we were all so pleased to see a happy confident girl 🥰

7 month old Joey showing that it’s never too early to start Scentwork 🥹 Joey comes with his big sister Emily and both are enjoying class in different ways ☺️

Week 3 of Pawsitive Progression saw Bruce (pictured) receive ‘star of the week’ 🌟

This weeks star of the week was Rita 😁

Both dogs are still only young and are doing really well with what we are asking of them. Bruce is focusing on advancing what he already knows and increasing difficulty, while Rita is making strides in increasing he confidence again after a knock 🥹

Last night was week 3 of Beginners Scentwork. Here is Tilly demonstrating her developing nose hover. She, and the rest of class, are really starting to get the hang of it now!

P.S. Excuse the excited praise 😅

Isn’t he so handsome? 🥹
