Working on getting a really solid stay with 4 month old Nala. Stay is such an important one to get right as it’s the foundation for loads of other things and great early impulse training! The key is to not only teach Stay but then practice with loads of different distractions (for example someone else trying to distract them like in the video) this way it will be solid! #positivedogtraining #k9training #dogtraining #londondogtraining #forcefreedogtraining #forcefreedog #chelseadogtraining #forcefreetraining #londondogtrainer
Practing some neutrality around dogs in our Sunday session. Dogs naturally know how to play, the real work is teaching them to ignore other dogs. Don’t worry they also get tons of playtime! It’s important they know how to do both. The cause of a lot of reactivity is when people don’t teach their dogs how to be calm and neutral around other dogs. @figgy.lin #positivedogtraining #positivedogtrainer #k9training #forcefree #forcefreedogtraining #chelseadogtraining #smalldogsofinstagram #londondogtrainer 
Munchkin learning how to ‘tidy’ up his toys. He definitely loves learning so this is a fun game for indoors now it’s getting darker! #positivedogtraining #k9training #forcefreedogtraining #dogtraining #londondogtraining #chelseadog
Looking extremely dishevelled with my crazy hair! So nice to be back with my N1 after quite a lot of travel in the last two months.
The beauty of an older dog is that after years of training it can all become so subtle and smooth. I love the way Luna can read my tiny movements and understand exactly what I want. She also loves the training, and that’s all I ever wanted! #positivedogtraining #k9training #dogtraining #obediencetraining #chelseadogtraining #forcefreedogtraining
Some training is for fun….some is for practicality 😂 #positivedogtraining #k9training #dogtraining #forcefreedogtraining #obedience
With a huge increase of squirrels in the park everyone is having issues! Can you blame the dogs, they are so fun to chase and it’s only natural for dogs to have prey drive. However so many dogs are going into the park and just hunting on their own. Meaning owners lose control. To get control back we need to change the game, create engagement and get our dogs to work with us…not just on their own. We can’t get rid of prey drive, but we can get control back! #positivedogtraining #k9training #forcefree #forcefreedogtraining #londondogtraining #preydrive
⭐️Why private enclosed fields are so special ⭐️
There is nothing that warms my heart more than a dog really running. It is what they are made for…they need it!
For dogs like Moose that really struggle with strange dogs or people randomly approaching it is so nice to rent a fully enclosed field so he can have fun 100% stress free. Despite the fact that Moose listens so well to his owner, that still doesn’t stop people letting their off lead dogs rush him which can be hard to manage.
I really recommend to those that are able to drive or get transport make use of some of the brilliant enclosed fields near london. Amazing for nervous and reactive dogs. Plus it was good fun setting up some jumps which Luna loves ❤️ @grow.walkies #positivereinforcementrainingalltheway #forcefreetraining #dogtraining #k9training #londondogtraining #obediencetraining #dogsoftiktok #agility
⭐️How to massively reduce the chances of having a reactive dog on the lead⭐️
(the puppy in my arms has a bad leg hence why he is not on the floor!)
Everyone wants their puppy to have friends and have fun, but people need to realise that that is the easy bit! Teaching a dog to be neutral is so important or else your puppy can turn into a stressed or overstimulate dog…who barks or lunges on the lead!
Yes we want to let our puppies socialise, make friends and have fun but my number one tip to puppy owners when it comes to socialising is to start this exercise on the lead FROM THE START! #positivereinforcementrainingalltheway #forcefreetraining #dogtraining #k9training #londondogtraining #monacodogtrainer #smalldogsofinstagram
When a cheese obsessed dog will recall mid bite of cheese….you know you are doing it right! Well done @figgy.lin you are bossing it🌟A clip from our weekend session! #k9training #positivedogtraining #dogtraining #londondogtraining #forcefreedogtraining #forcefreedog #londondogtrainer #chelseadogtraining #smalldogsofinstagram
⭐️Working on impulse control with Charlie⭐️
Charlie is super smart and he loves to be kept busy and learn things. Which is great for teaching tricks. BUT…not good for going for a relaxing walk or just switching off, and our dogs have to learn to relax and sniff about instead of always chasing a ball or doing an exercise. A dog who can’t do nothing can become a pretty stressed dog. All that intelligence is actually a hinderance without *impulse control* and an off switch. So here Charlie is working on just watching Luna do some tricks with his owner. Much harder than it may look! #positivedogtraining #k9training #dogtraining #forcefreetraining #londondogtraining #dogtraininginlondon
I’ve spent the week in the US and these two pups are some of the dogs i’ve worked with.
The ultimate escape artists learning about boundaries! These two pups have been putting their owner to the test by constantly escaping and racing through the gate anytime it is opened (and even managing when it’s not 😅). It has been dangerous due to them being able to access a road close by. When we started work the second there was the smallest gap they were trying to dive for it. However look at how well they’ve done! Training = safety ❤️ #k9training #positivedogtraining #dogtraining #londondogtraining #forcefreedogtraining #forcefreedog #usadogtraining
