A little recap of some of the things we’ve been working on recently. 🥰 lots of loose lead, group classes and helping dogs who are reactive 🐾
If you want help with anything you see in the video, or any dog training related issue- just get in touch and I’d love to help 😊❤️🐾

All the young pups having fun, building confidence and learning to socialise with other dogs. 🐾
We do have supervised play between the dogs at young puppy class, but equally important is learning to have a neutral reaction to other dogs! So we do lots of activities with pups around, but not directly playing, as well as all the puppy play which is also important, and of course very cute 🥰
Mondays at 6.30pm & Fridays at 5.15pm 😊
You can book at staustelldogcare.co.uk/book-online

Working with Myla has been a joy so far, she reacts to other dogs at certain distances.
We are working on helping her overcome her difficulties, and gain the ability to have a neutral reaction to other dogs.
Her and her owner are doing amazingly well so far 🥰 stay tuned for more on Myla’s journey, and if you have a dog that shows reactive behaviour get in touch today and start working in a kind and sustainable way with real life results 🐾❤️

Hi everyone! I have been absent from my socials for a little while, a combination of lots of rearranging sessions and the admin that comes with that due to weather and not properly balancing home life and work life I think!
However, I am back with a renewed goal to post regularly 😂 I hope to help everyone out with little tidbits, and as always if you need more help with anything I mention in the videos, please do reach out or drop a comment below. I’d also love any ideas people have for future videos they’d like me to do? 👇 🐾

1 space left for Fridays Young Puppy Class- for pups up to 6 months old! 🐾 We focus on socialisation, confidence building and basic training 😊
Pups can attend as soon as they have had their first jab so if you’ve got a little puppy at home bring them along for structured, supervised socialisation with a qualified dog trainer 👊🐾

It’s tick season! 🤦♂️
I wanted to do a video on tick removal at this dreaded time of year. Please do not attempt this if you haven’t done handling training with your dog, they need to feel safe being handled in potentially sensitive areas.

Adding distance to a behaviour is a great way to strengthen the behaviour 💪
It also keeps training fun for you and your dog by increasing the challenge 🐾
Post clips or pictures of you working with your dogs at distance in the comments below! I’d love to see it 😃

What not to do if your dog growls at you?!
Growls are a way for your dog to say “back off!” It is crucial that we do not teach the dog the their growl does not work, or they may resort to a snap or even a bite..
If your dog growls at you, do not insist on touching them/doing whatever you were doing- listen to them, back off and seek help from a qualified professional 😊

🥶 it was cold today!! And that means one thing… doggy choc ice were consumed! 🤢 😂 in all seriousness don’t let your dogs consume indefinite amounts of this stuff 😂 but the heart wants what it wants so I let them have a nibble… ❤️
I like to feed Wilma her food reward in the location I want her to be when she’s doing the behaviour- seems simple right? But it will make a big difference to being able to practise these behaviours effectively, and it helps you get into the right frame of mind for making training fun for your dog! 🐶 where the food comes from can be part of the fun in training itself! For example: when practising recall I feel on the floor between my feet as 1) that’s where I’d like her to be 2) I can feed multiple treats for what is a difficult behaviour! 3) she finds it more fun as it becomes its own little scent game and 4) gives me a chance to hotfoot it away and call her again from a little distance away- recall becomes a game in itself! Give it a try 😊

Why does my dog react? 🐶 🚨 well in this video I explain some of the reasons that might be- but more importantly one reason it isn’t! 🤔Hint- they’re not trying to annoy you! It’s sometimes reassuring to know that your dog isn’t trying to get on your nerves! As it can be testing working with a reactive dog, you have to remember that you’re on the same team 💪

When should you train your dog? Whenever you can! 😃 have fun with it, mix it into your walks. It’s really important your dogs practise behaviours in different places so they can do it when you really need it! So crack on and have fun 😊

Please please please 🙏 give reactive dogs space! And don’t be mean to the owner if they are responsibly training their dog to be able to handle difficult situations 😃🥰 that’s it! Be kind and give them space 🤙
