I think I just lost my heart to Butch 🥰

This gorgeous floof has landed himself a fabulous new home & his new parent wanted to get him started off on the right paw, as he’s going to be a big boy.

We discussed the importance of sleep, good nutrition, mental stimulation & how to handle puppy nipping/potty training. Then we got straight to work on building loose lead walking 🐾

Can’t wait to see this little face in January’s puppy life skills course.

If you’d like to join Butch, the next 5 week Puppy Life Skills Course starts on Saturday 18 January at 10.30am at Mossley Orange Hall, Newtownabbey. Contact Doggy Den NI or email: [email protected] to book 🐾

Ending the week with this stunner. Winnie is 12 weeks old sassy little puppy, full of fun & teeth 🦷

Today we learnt how to chill on the mat, name recognition & recall - it never ceases to amaze me how quickly puppies learn ❤️

We also discussed the importance of sleep, good nutrition, potty training & handling puppy biting

Beautiful Luna 🐾

Luna had a bad experience with a “pet care” provider which has resulted in her left in pain & not trusting dogs & humans in certain situations.

We made a start building both Luna’s & her humans confidence back up using positive reinforcement to learn new handling skills around her triggers & building on her already good loose lead walking

This serves as a reminder to us all that the ‘Dog/ Pet care’ industry is unregulated & you really do have to do checks & ask questions before you entrust your animal to anyone. “Ive had dogs all my life”, “I love dogs”, “they have a nice house” - are not a qualifications.

The beautiful Sienna has landed on her paws in a fabulous new home

Sienna has spent most of her young life outdoors or in kennels so adjust to life in a house has brought a little challenge- she frightened of the TV. With some help we are going to change that 🐾

If you’d like some help on any issues you’re experiencing with your dog 121 sessions are available. Contact Doggy Den NI to book 🐾

Well done to Team Timothy & Team Reggie completing the Loose Lead Walking course this morning

Today we took the skills learnt to the great outdoors & all the distractions of ‘real life’ walks. To say I’m so proud of these guys is an understatement because the progress they have made has been amazing. Well done 👏🏼

All achieved with positive reinforcement- No Slip knot leads, No yanking, No harsh methods

Meet the gorgeous Sunny

Today we made a start on building a solid recall & loose lead walking skills - this young pup aced it 🐾

Sunny is only 4.5 months old so it’s important to make learning fun for him. Keep it simple, clear & consistent is key 🔑

Today I’m very proud of Shadow - we achieved our goal 🐾 Shadow is a strong boy & his owner was struggling with loose lead walking. Her goal was to walk along the Carrickfergus sea front. It wasn’t that Shadow didn’t have the training, his lead skills are good, however, he gets very overwhelmed by the outside world. For a foodie dog he was so stressed that he couldn’t take even the most tasty treat, he was drooling at the mouth & just pulling from lamppost to lamppost. It was all just too much. But today, just 4 walks later, we walked up & down the sea front & even managed the subway. He’s still a little anxious but it’s now at a level where he can listen to cues & make good decisions. The point of this post folks is to highlight that not all pulling on the lead is because they can or that they haven’t had adequate training- it could be that WHERE you’re trying to walk is just too much for them. With some patience, stepping away to a more quiet area to build on skills & confidence, going at the dog’s pace we have achieved our goal. Now to introduce the owner & help them to achieve their goal & build their confidence. Also no slip knot lead or throat yanking was needed to achieve this. Just listening to the dog & patience! #trainingwithkindness
