It’s National Hydration Day!

It goes without saying that having water available during walks is essential in this glorious weather!

Today we’ve been practicing taking turns and being still while we wait our turn! We’ve been carefully putting balls in big buckets, smaller buckets and even smaller buckets!
Learning, concentrating and problem solving is mentally demanding for dogs. Especially the “Monday morning exciteables”
Maintaining hydration, is crucial not only for general health and mental clarity.
Drinking little and often however, is key in the hot weather.
Guzzling bucketfuls at a time isn’t cool!
Water intoxication, while uncommon, is something to be aware of if your pup loves hosepipe play or when swimming is an enthusiastic ball retrieving machine!
Today we’ve used a rubber ring that doesn’t soak up water for our water retrieves .

The effects of water intoxication can include the following:
💦lethargy
💦bloating
💦vomiting
💦loss of coordination (including stumbling, falling, or staggering)
💦restlessness
💦drooling
💦pale gums
💦dilated pupils or glazed eyes

If you are at all concerned contact your vets for advice without delay.
As I always say -
PROACTIVE rather than REACTIVE!
Prevention is always better than cure!

Barlle and I have had a super holiday! We’re looking forward to seeing you all as usual tomorrow! 🥳

Our Story

All dogs need daily exercise. It keeps them healthy, socialised and out of trouble! Dogs that demonstrate undesired behaviours are often lacking mental and/or physical stimulation. My aim is to provide plenty of opportunities for play and appropriate socialisation using fun training games . My priority is the safety and wellbeing of your dog- I have a good understanding of canine body language and endeavour to anticipate and so prevent any issues with other dogs. I’m keen to build confidence in dogs, recognising when they feel nervous or unsure in any situation or environment and ensuring I give them the appropriate space they need in order to feel comfortable and happy. I have a keen interest in how dogs learn having trained my own dog to Kennel Club Gold level in obedience and Trick Dog Champion.

I only walk small groups of 4 dogs so that I can build a close relationship with your dog. Mutual respect and understanding goes a long way when working on behaviours that we perceive as “undesirable” . We practice gate/door/vehicle manners, turn taking, impulse control etc. All of which are achievable through reward based training games. Your dog doesn’t even realise he or she is learning, just that we are having fun!

I am fully insured and DBS checked. I have completed courses in Canine Body Language, Canine First Aid and Puppy Training and Development.
