In a world filled with misconceptions about dog breeds, few have faced as much negative press as the Bully XL has lately. These dogs, often unfairly labeled as aggressive or dangerous, have become victims of sensationalism and prejudice. It's time to set the record straight: when it comes to dogs, i...
It has come to my attention that a few people have been trying (unsuccessfully) to contact me. I am unable for some reason to get into my messenger emails. I am currently unavailable for dog training until June 2023. I apologise for the inconvenience 🐕🐶

New study published in Psychological Science found that dogs show signs of jealously even when they can't see their rival.
Although most dog owners believe their dogs get jealous, scientists are cautious in recognising this emotion in dogs. Because it is associated with self-awareness, some doubt dogs can think with this level of sophistication.
In the study, 18 dogs watched their human next to a realistic fake dog (fake to keep things constant between trials). A barrier was moved in front of the fake dog so it could no longer be seen. The dog's human then interacted with the fake dog, petting it and talking to it kindly.
The watching dog was tethered and a force meter was used to measure the force with which the dog pulled. Pulling on the leash indicates a 'desire to approach', which is recognised as a jealous behaviour in children.
In the second part of the experiment, a fleece cylinder was used instead of a fake dog to act as a control. The fake dog was left in view for this part to test if the mere presence of a potential rival triggered jealous behaviour.
Dogs pulled with much greater force when their human appeared to be interacting with a dog rather than an inanimate object (the fleece cylinder).
The results of the experiment provide 3 pieces of evidence that dogs behave in a human-like jealous way. 1: they had a strong desire to approach when their human interacted with a perceived rival, not an inanimate object. 2: this desire only emerged when there was an interaction, not when the rival was merely present. 3: it happened even when the rival was out of sight.
This is the first evidence that dogs can make a mental picture of a jealousy-inducing social interaction.
Do you think dogs feel jealousy? What does your dog do when they are feeling jealous?

Hot weather means hot pavement!
Olaf walked over a mile on the Fish Trap Trail before his owner realized his pads were burned, and even then he wasn't whining or limping! He is one tough cookie (and exceptionally sweet cookie).
A good rule of thumb is if the pavement is too hot for your hand it's too hot for your dogs' pads.
Amazing talent ⚡
Are these the fastest dogs ever?! Aces and Focus both break the record in the Crufts Flyball Final! 🙌🐕🎾
Guide Dog Quinn
Would you know what it meant if you saw a Guide Dog with either a red and white or a blue and white harness flash?
The photo on the left shows Cooper with a red and white flash on his harness. This indicates that the Guide Dog Owner has hearing loss as well as a visual impairment.
The photo on the right shows working Guide Dog Hetty with a blue and white flash on her harness. Blue and white indicates that Hetty is also a seizure alert dog.
Please like and share with your friends to build awareness of this!

Sunrise with Libby 🐕🐾❤
This time last year I was taking my eldest dog Angel for her last group walk. She was blind and frail so she spent her last few months on separate shorter walks without the other dogs. Gone but never forgotten X

Elite Dog Training is unavailable until July 2017 due to being on maternity leave. While I will try to redirect and reply to as many people as I can, please understand that I am very busy at this time.
Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas from all at Elite Dog Training! Libby loves Christmas as she gets to open all our presents for us along with her own!
Hopefully the worst of the fireworks have passed until the New Year celebrations but everyone should try and keep their dogs safe meanwhile and expect random ones going off still. I'd advise against walking in the dark with flighty dogs, keep dogs on lead in the day too, ensure your dogs microchip and physical ID tag are upto date with your details (BOTH are required by UK law) & keep up any settling methods you're using at home (doggy dens, calming tablets etc).
Kai at 8 weeks and now :-)
We'll be holding the agility again at this event this year and raising money for charity!
Our next event will soon be announced!
What will be our next event? Announcement coming soon...

While doing training sessions with clients and their dogs outdoors this week I've had EVERY lesson disrupted by off leash dogs who are out of control. I love dogs - but it's not cute, funny or pleasant having strange dogs running up, jumping all over and even growling at me, my clients and the very anxious (and usually dog-reactive) dogs I'm trying to work with. Even when one owner had their dog returned to them twice by my training assistant the dog was still not kept under control and interrupted our session for a third time in 5minutes. Some owners did not even make an attempt to recall their dogs which is even more frustrating. While some dogs love everyone and everything – the majority of dogs I work with take MONTHS of training to get the confidence to be on walks and my clients put allot of time and effort into trying to train their dogs. I’m happy to say that no harm came to any of the dogs involved due to the quick reaction of my clients and team. If you see a dog CLEARLY having a training session – please carry on your walk as normal without your dog becoming a nuisance, we will happily remove ourselves to another part of the field if necessary to give way but if the other dog is following us it is pointless. My job is to control my clients dog – I can’t control every random dog that approaches – as friendly as they may be – please don’t make my job harder or put the dogs and handlers at risk :-/

After ongoing problems with my email it has now been brought to my attention that my phone too has been playing up. I cannot listen to any voicemails, I have no log of missed calls and at times I cannot get a connection when making phone calls. So... I'm going to ask that clients temporarily message me through the Elite Dog Training FB page or TEXT me. I hope to have these problems resolved shortly. Thank you for your patience.
My apologies to anyone trying to email me recently. It hascome to my attention that many emails are not coming through for some reason and some received emails have gone missing :-( I'm trying to resolve this issue - please text me on 07941073746 meanwhile if you are having trouble contacting me.
Angel and Libby enjoyed a session this evening :-)
Spent some time with my eldest dogs, Angel (13year old blind black lab x collie) and Libby (6year old ridgeback mix) :-)
Having some time off this week so replies may be a bit slow. I've had a ridiculous amount of enquiries via email and phone the last few days so I'm still getting through the backlog. Thank you for your patience :-)
Spent our Monday morning with my favourite dog trainer Dayle from Canine Wizardry in Enfield! Most of my dogs have been to their great group classes and this is where my interest in dog training began. Check them out if you're after group training classes www.canine-wizardry.co.uk the rotties were on their best behaviour :-)
Had a lovely training session with two of my dogs this afternoon :-)
My dogs get excited about the garden door opening... :-P
If you fancy making some home-made treats for your dog’s here are 5 dog friendly recipes :-)
Let’s face it, dog treats can get pretty expensive and many of us (myself included) have dogs that deal with sensitivities or allergies to certain food
