Different look for Nala today.

Fun fact. Nala was my first dog in the salon when I first opened up.

If your dog was originally bred to do a job, for example...

🐾 German Shepherd ➡️ herd livestock and personal protection
🐾 Spaniel (cocker/springer) ➡️ flush and retrieve birds
🐾 Border Collie ➡️ herd livestock
🐾 Dalmatian ➡️ hunting and property protection
🐾 Golden retriever ➡️ hunting and retrieval of gamebirds
🐾 Dachshund ➡️ hunt badgers from setts

Then working is literally in their blood, if we don't give them an outlet to fulfill this innate need, they will inevitably go self employed and the job they choose is likely to be, but not limited to...

🐾 Chewing the furniture
🐾 Digging holes in the garden
🐾 Parkour in the lounge
🐾 Counter surfing
🐾 Barking at every noise within a 5 mile radius

Luckily this doesn't mean you need to take up hunting for your food, or purchase a flock of sheep for your back garden!
You can find tutorials online or seek advice from a good trainer to start fun jobs that you can enjoy together as a team, the best thing is you only need to do 5 minutes of something a day to work their brains and fulfill their fundamental needs.

A few ideas
🐾 Trick training
🐾 Scent work
🐾 Impulse control
🐾 Obedience
🐾 Food puzzles
🐾 Agility
🐾 Hoopers
🐾 Tracking
🐾 Gundog training
And the list goes on.

Find what works for you both and have fun with it, you'll be amazed with the results

Anyone with a puppy under 6 months? We had the best time with Presley on her puppy course - and it's outside so I personally feel is great as they can learn off lead training in a normal environment

ONLY 3 places left
🐾🐾Sunday 11th May 10am🐾🐾
1hour Workshop (puppies under 6months)
This is a very relaxed workshop for you and your puppy to come along meet other puppies and socialise in a safe environment.
We will discuss what is safe play, how to take breaks and getting your pup back from other dogs.
Puppies learn through play and gain confidence in their surroundings from experiencing a variety of different things at a young age.
Building confidence as a puppy is key to them being a calm well rounded adult.

Our very own Wag Station puppy. She's been a long time coming, and we are absolutely besotted. She will be in and out of the salon when she's had all her vaccines
