Hi there! I'm Caroline from K9ology and I’m a Fully Accredited Dog Trainer with the IMDT and a Member of The Pet Professional Network.
Along my journey I have met so many different breeds of dogs, different problems ranging from pulling on the lead, severe barking, aggression and lots of different ways people have tried to help the situations and their dogs. All of these things can be rectified, with time, perseverance and patience. ‘Quick fixes’ rarely work for long, so all I ask of owners is that they take on board the advice, stick to the plan and give it their best shot.
I have thee dogs of my own; George an Old Tyme Dorset Bulldog who we’ve had seen he was nine weeks old, Milly an ex puppy farm dog who is approximately two years old and Lexi, a rescue French Bulldog who was a breeding dog. Timmy, our little rescue Cavelier King Charles Spaniel who was also an ex puppy farm dog, died from heart failure last year, but we were lucky to have him in our family for two years and fours months, which was a lot longer than we were told when we adopted him due to his heart murmur.
Through our dogs alone, I have learnt so much - George wasn't the easiest of dogs to house train, and was totally dog and people obsessed when we were out. He then has had various problems with his legs, so we’ve had to help him cope with that and rehabilitate him. More recently he has had two lots of cancerous lumps removed, but is now a happy and content dog again. Timmy and Milly as I say were ex puppy farm rescues, both were found abandoned on the streets and just skin and bone when we got them. Timmy also had various wounds on him, so had obviously been hurt too while on the streets. We had to house train Timmy and although extremely friendly, he was understandably cautious around some dogs, and was very guarding of his food and bones at first. He gradually became very confident and respectful around other dogs and house trained, and although was still a little bit food obsessed, it was no longer a problem. Milly also needed house training and was terrified of the outside world, especially of cars and some men. She would literally shut down before our eyes in certain situations or with certain triggers. Everything had to be done very slowly and gradually, but she is now quite confident and even enjoys her walks now too. Lexi being an ex breeding dog had led a mainly kennelled life, so also needed house training. She’s on the whole a happy girl, but we’ve had to do introductions to dogs carefully, as she wasn’t use to seeing lots of different types of dogs, or being able to go on carefree walks and sniff and just be a dog!
