Chip- part time Corgi, part time torso 🤣 💀

Not that we have favourites 🤫, but I definitely would say Chip and his 'sister' Meg are client favourites at our Tollerton classes- no one can resist a Corgi!

The fireworks are bad where I am- they've been going for over 3 hours now. I really don't take for granted having 5 dogs who don't care about them at all- all super chilled out! Part of this is training and correct socialisation and habituation, part genetics, but also part luck- you can do everything "right" and still have one bad scare, or the development of pain, which is hugely linked to noise sensitivity, leading to a dog being sensitive to fireworks or scared of them.

But even if your dog is good with fireworks, please do NOT let them out into a hallway or garden that isn't 100% secure without a lead- all it takes is one scare, and unfortunately there are already loads of posts on Facebook groups of dogs going missing already tonight from sudden frights. ☹️

🎇 The dreaded fireworks season is upon us 😩 We might be using management like closing our curtains, avoiding walks after dark, playing Taiko drums on YouTube... But how can you actively help your dog or puppy through noticing fireworks and help make positive associations?

Here's how I worked through Sparrow's first (unexpected) exposure to the sound of fireworks at about 6 months old! At 9 months old, he is now habituated and has no reaction to the sound of them, just like my other dogs.

🚂 Earlier this year, gorgeous Faith and her dedicated owner came all the way from Whitby(!) on public transport to Derby for 5 days of intensive training after struggling to find a local trainer who could work with her disabilities and requirements, and preferring to train in-person. ♿

🐾 We worked on key foundation skills including switching to better equipment options, lead walking, reducing excitability around dogs, recall, reward strategies, foundations for future assistance dog tasks training including retrievals and tugging, walking with a wheelchair and walking stick, and settling. This pup did brilliant and her owner went home with lots of strategies and training plans to continue her training back home! 👏

❓Do you need support training your dog or puppy- whether you're struggling to find a trainer with experience to adapt to your disabilities or needs, struggling with a dog showing reactive behaviour, having difficulties in the home, or wanting to do fun training like trick training you can do at home now the evenings are darker?

💻You don't need to travel hundreds of miles- get in touch about our online training and coaching services, allowing you to train with Briar wherever you are remotely and flexibly!

Super spooky evening tonight at our annual Halloween party! 🎃💀Lovely evening with 15 great dogs and their owners, some brilliant costumes, tasty cake, lots of laughs (can't take life too seriously!) and only one person falling over getting a bit too competitive 🤣

One of the best things about our group classes is the lovely communities that we've built over the years and how supportive everyone is of each other- a lot of the dog world is full of drama and egos, but we have none of that- it's all about the dogs, good training and good company!
