Don’t be a Yanker! Yanking a dog’s lead to inflict pain to their neck as a way of teaching them simply is not necessary or acceptable. Sadly this is what I witnessed today in what appeared to be a person training another person how to handle their dog. I don’t know if this was a well meaning friend or a professional trainer, but it was violent and unnecessary.

Not only is it unnecessary and unfair to the dog, it risks seriously injuring them. It’s also worth considering what happens when the dog retaliates to the handler’s violent actions, that’s when people are at risk of serious injury or death from dog bites!

22/07/2024

After a week off I’m looking forward to seeing everyone at the FREE SOCIAL DOG WALK and FREE SOCIAL PUPPY WALK!

These walks are your opportunity to keep up with you dog or puppy’s social interaction in a positive, managed way, fully supported by a formally qualified and highly experienced dog behaviourist. You can ask questions about dog training and behaviour throughout the walks, we even have a dedicated questions and answers section on the puppy walk!

One of the added things I love about these walks is they bring people together, not just dogs. We live in a world where having relaxed chats about the ups and downs of life can be difficult. We are are friendly bunch and there will always be someone with an ear for you.

Both walks are FREE but should you wish to make a donation to Animals In Need Northamptonshire there will be a collection tin available throughout the walk.
