I recently saw a reel by where she talks about “questioning the why” and it really got me thinking about my experiences in relation to this

I grew up working dogs, I have trained dogs since I was a child and professionally in some form or another since 18 years old and I have worked dogs in the field for over 15 years. I have not started competing until recently but this all reminded me to have more confidence in my own ability and start questioning the why more. Far too many trainers will tell you to do something but can’t actually explain why….. I want to know why is this method better for my dog? Why is this method going to work? What benefit does this method have in relation to me competing my dogs? Will this method impact my dogs mental wellbeing? Does your method suit this temperament of dog?

I have started to question everything in relation to my dogs and so should you! Unfortunately I have learnt this the hard way after following advice I wished I had the confidence to ask the “why” about when given.

My dogs wellbeing, their development and care is my utmost priority. If I never compete them again that’s absolutely fine, it’s about them being happy and fulfilled. I will not follow the advice of trainers that do not align with my views on their care and will most certainly question every bit of advice pushed my way

Find the courage and confidence to question and advocate for your dog. Have more confidence in your own ability as a handler and trainer. Question everything.

Dogs first, egos second 🙌

2024 has certainly been a venture so far!

From picking my camera back up earlier this year, and finding joy in photographing my own dogs.. to seeing my work on the front page of websites!

A huge thank-you to Carla for also taking a chance on me photographing one of her workshops earlier this ear (and inviting me back to more!) - even though I knew nothing about Gundogs, and gundog training! It's been fun, a bit wet and muddy at times - but forever thankful for the support!

Hudson

An absolute gentleman is every aspect of life, a heart of a lion and a dog that will work and do what is required without any fuss. My one in a million 🫶

Hudson is a fully health tested proven stud and his progeny can be viewed. He is producing exceptional, talented pups that are calm, quiet, driven and extremely trainable.

Harris, the firecracker of the house. I absolutely adore this little dog. He has the biggest heart and would literally do anything for me but his madness ages me 😂

Hudson has chosen his favourite out of the new treats range from

Wee Salmon Crunchies 🐟 Now these guys are a bit different. They are the salmon version of sprats and Wilson’s currently have the only Scottish supply of these. They are freeze dried and absolutely packed with nutrition. On top of that, they ensure that they are not wasted as part of the traditional salmon farming process as they are from fish that haven’t grown as big as is required
