Hi guys, I just wanted to let everyone waiting on a training plan know I am doing my best to get them written up, I had lots of assessments happen within the last 7 days and each one requires a bespoke plan. I need to make sure all are well suited to the pups they are destined for- thank you for bearing with me and I’m sorry it is taking longer than usual! 🐾 ❤️

Lots of things can impact how long it takes to change a dogs behaviour- just like in people.
Clients often ask how long it will take, and unfortunately there is no clear answer. I have had cases that I thought would run for months resolve in a few weeks! And cases that I just thought would be a simple fix have some complex underlying cause that takes longer to address.
What I can promise is with commitment, an evidence based training plan and ongoing support we will see improvements over time as shown by my client feedback 😊 and if I can’t help, I’ll absolutely do my best to find someone who can!

Receiving messages like this make my day! 🥰 Tala only learnt to settle recently, and her parents took her to the pub and she absolutely aced it! ❤️
Great work by them, to stick to the plan and practise. And it makes me very happy to see Tala so relaxed and comfortable in a situation that used to make her a bit nervous 💪
If you need help with your dog gaining confidence in public, or learning to settle down- get in touch 😊

Should we consider our dogs’ happiness while training? 🐾 I certainly think so! When a dog’s needs aren’t met, problem behaviour can occur.

We all think of our dogs as family members, so why wouldn’t we want to take a kind approach to training? This article is a god little read on why our dogs happiness matters, not only ethically but also in terms of behaviour! 🥰

Instead of asking, “How do I get my dog to obey me?” we should ask, “Is my dog happy?” and “How can I make them happier?”

He has done amazingly well on his loose lead walking and now we are working on being able to stay patient while his owners stop and talk out on their walks 😊 dog walks are for everyone Albert! 🐾 🤪

Here’s a great video on dog body language during play! I’m always explaining this stuff to people but don’t have any recordings 🙈 sometimes it’s really useful to see the behaviours in action so you know what to look out for and when to step in- to either protect your dog, or just as importantly to prevent them from practising unwanted behaviour!
Don’t always “just let them work it out!” 😆😭 🐾

A look into dog play and how it is often misread. A deeper look into videos of dogs playing where we look at intensity, body language, play bows and how the...

This is an Albert appreciation post- I’m in love with him and his hairdo! 🥰
His owners are getting a summer haircut for him soon to help him stay cool, which I totally agree with, but I have been trying to get them to keep his head hair- what do you guys think- keep the top mop or chop? 😃
We have been working on him staying calm around other dogs- he smashed his session this week, well done Albert and his owners for doing so well on the plan 👊❤️

This guys journey was really something special ❤️ I’m so proud to have played a small part in getting him to safety, thank you Keeping Hope Dog Rescue Cornwall and Sally especially for introducing me to him! It warms my heart every time I get updates and pictures of him having a blast 🥰
The work that they do is incredible, I am happy and proud to help on the training side but all the hard work goes in behind the scenes to give these dogs happy homes. Please consider following, sharing their posts or even supporting directly as their tireless work really makes a difference to so many dogs and people ❤️

I’ve been working with quite a few anxious dogs recently, and sadly some owners have asked whether they are ‘allowed’ to comfort their dog when scared.. of course you can! 😊 fear is an emotion, not a behaviour- you can’t reinforce it. Please do comfort your dog, reassure them if they are scared. If you are unsure what your dog is feeling in certain situations then please reach out- I can help you learn to read your dogs body language. It isn’t always obvious! They are a different species after all, don’t beat yourself up! 🐾

When your dog comes to you for comfort, go ahead and comfort them. Use calm, quiet voices and gentle touch to help them settle and feel more secure with you. It won't make the fear worse, but it will help them to understand that you are a safe place and that they can rely on you to help them to feel better.
