If there's one thing you do today, tomorrow and the next day...... have fun with your dog
Even if your working through some behaviours go and have fun, play with them and enjoy each others company.
How far your dog gets training wise Is down to you. Turn up, learn, have fun and train because its worth it in the end ☺️

Group Training Class from the other week

Structured setting for you to work on the items you want and need to with your dog.
All dog breeds welcome and all ages
(Must of attended classes or 1-1 sessions before attending)
Relationship - Communication - Understanding - Control
Here is a dog that understands what is being asked of him when there is no lure no food reward just him understanding that for him to get the ball (the reward) he does what is asked of him and then he gets said reward.
No matter the dog breed all dogs should have a level of control. These days people don't like this word control in dog training as it implies we are superior and instead our dogs should be treated like babies and we shouldn't say no to our dogs 🤯
This is one of many reasons the dog world is in a total mess. We have to remember dogs are predatory animals and although been domesticated you have to take into account a dogs instincts, drive and behaviour.
Training a dog takes time and commitment this doesn't just happen this is through effective communication, a good relationship, the dog understanding what is expected of him and through training adding in impulse control.
My FB and Instagram stories I show work I do with my dogs because as a trainer I like to show what I preach. Showing what is possible through training no matter the dog breed.
Beautiful afternoon with the girls 🩷

Some snippets from walk and train today with Rocky.
We have done a few already in regards to reactivity to dogs which he is doing so well with but now pushing his obedience that bit further.
Focusing on obedience today (sits/down and stays) with distractions also added in with people passing and also couple of dogs.
Real life training
“Your so Lucky your dogs so good”
Nah mate this didn’t happen through luck 🍀 This is called training every day for the last 14 months since I got Cairo as a puppy. Hard work, dedication, commitment, training with good genetics made this. Your dog doesn’t just know how to behave it’s taught it’s learnt 💭 Training your dog is a commitment and trust me it’s one worth making 😊
And it doesn’t matter what breed of dog every dog deserves to be trained.
Group Training Class
Well done to everyone that attended group class today practising all different scenarios.
Getting the dogs to settle round other dogs sitting down like you would in a cafe with people passing/dogs passing.
Neutrality
Passing dogs
Impulse control
Distraction work
Great class all working together ⭐️
Unpopular opinion post
What a dog conditioned to an e-collar looks like…..
An e-collar is one of the most misunderstood training tools in dog training with so much wrong information given from some training professionals (positive only trainers)
Some of the misinformation that’s given surrounding this training tool is the following:
It “shocks” your dog
It shuts down your dog
It makes them scared of you
It’s used as a punishment
It ruins your relationship with your dog
It’s cruel and abusive
This is just some of the terms that get used by some trainers about the e-collar which if they had any idea about this tool at all, had ever taken the time to learn about them this information would not be put out there.
Like any training tool there is always certain individuals that may use them badly but does this mean they should be banned because of a small minority. Same as a kitchen knife it is brilliant in the hands of a chef or for us to use in the kitchen but there is people out there which will use them to stab and kill people does that mean we should not be allowed to buy or use kitchen knives?
Watch this video of my XL bully Cairo who is conditioned to the e-collar which he has been trained positively to. Ask yourself does this dog look scared/shutdown/abused/unhappy? Would you even know he was on an e-collar and feeling a stimulation when I press it?
Don’t be fooled by this whole e-collars are cruel and people using them are shocking there dogs. Until you have opened your mind up and taken the time to learn about it and actually watch a dog worked on an e-collar your opinion won’t be valid, it’s one sided.
Not all dogs will need to be e-collar trained but for the dogs that do this tool is a complete life saver not just to the dog but to people and livestock.
1-1 session has come available a Monday 8th May.
