📢 Recommendations please 🙏

Looking for a local groomer who works with sensitive dogs and who will be patient with confidence building 💜

Dog has become very sensitive in his adolescence and has become a bit snappy if his signals are not read correctly. He is genuinely a lovely, sweet boy who needs his confidence building back up!

What an overload of fluffy cuteness 😍
It's been a busy one this week and very much ended on a soggy note 🌧
Behaviours we have covered this week are demand barking, reactivity, building confidence, lead walking and dealing with sensitivities. I'm so proud of you all working so hard to accomplish your goals and understand your dog better 💜
There's also been some ground covered with lots of walking too 🚶‍♀️

I hope all the school doggies enjoy their half term this week, Chip will miss his besties I'm sure!
Just a reminder that I am off next weekend again as well ☺️

Right now I'm off to warm up and dry off with a blanket and a packet of biscuits 😅

Have a lovely weekend all 🤩

Hi guys,

As you all know, having reviews is crucial for a small business so if you have enjoyed working with me, please follow the link below and leave me a review 🥰

And if you're feeling extra nice, if you could leave one on Facebook too that would be amazing 🧡

If you've ever had a one to one behavioural session with me, one thing I will encourage you to do is to study your dogs body language and try and work out what they are trying to tell you.

Communicating with your dog the correct way is hard, but learning to look for the subtle signs makes it easier 🙌

Firstly, I want to say once again how grateful I am for all your kind messages of feedback and support that I receive. Honestly it warms my heart so much, I really do have the best clients 🥰

Secondly, I know my phone has been a pain in the backside over the past week but I now have a new one so everything is up and running again. Between cars and phones, me and technology have not been friends recently! 😂

Just a reminder that I am off this weekend so responses will be a bit slower than usual. My plan was to go out for the day with Chip and do a bit of vlogging but the weather is not on our side today 😒 but I will endeavour to do this in the near future 🤗

Lastly, I am starting to open up my later slots again with the evenings starting to get a bit lighter ( Spring is definitely on its way, yay! ).
So if you would like to book in for a behavioural consultation or any extra 121 sessions, just drop me a message ✉️

UPDATE

I still don't have my phone or access to WhatsApp so if you've messaged in the last 24 hours on WhatsApp, I won't have read it. Please just normal text or call me instead.

I am texting everyone day to day to confirm all appointments. As I'm on an old phone, I will still be doing feedback after walks but no photos unfortunately 😞

Thank you for bearing with me 💗

Going to keep it short and sweet this week with this....

Dog People

"In this life, you're meant to have one great dog".

"One that shifts something deep inside you, in a way you never saw coming. He shows up, maybe when you need him most, maybe when you're too lost to see it. And in the smallest, most ordinary moments, he changes you.
I paused, thinking of all the nights I trudged through feeling like I was carrying the weight of the world alone. He's the one who makes it bearable, who brings you back when you're teetering on the edge. He doesn't try to explain or preach, he just stays there. Showing you a
kind of love you didn't think existed.

And that's the thing about that one great dog. He makes you question how you ever got by without him. You look at him, lying there, and realise he's given you more than any person ever has-no big speeches, just a presence that says, I'm here with you. And somehow, that's
enough to change everything". 💜

What a busy week! On a fitness journey again at the moment on top of the walking I do. This weeks steps total was 104,707 steps 🤯 its crazy how much ground I cover with some of these fluffy faces 😅 they have loved it though and so have I!
Behaviours covered this week have been resource guarding, jealousy and some reactivity. Also seen a few newbies for behavior medication who will be joining in the coming weeks 💜

Keeping it short and sweet so I hope you all have a funfilled weekend with your fluffs 😍

It's been a cold start back for the school doggies 🥶 however the lack of mud has been bliss 😅 Good news is for all the walkers is that I have some dry shampoo (doggy version of course!) and also new warm water washer so the dogs can come back clean and smelling lovely 💜 me on the other hand will just stay covered in mud all day 😅

Had a lot of enquiries and recommendations this week which I am very grateful for so once again thank you guys, much love ❤️

If you would like help on your dogs behaviour journey and would like to book in for a consultation, drop me a line or a message and I will be happy to help 📞✉️

Have a lovely weekend all 💚

Happy New Year everybody!
I started my New Year with the lovely Oakley, having the best cuddles and eating food. My legs have definitely had a shock to the system after not walking for over a week, need to work off all the chocolates from Christmas though😅

Although not quite back to normal, had a lovely few days working with this lot in the sunshine albeit a bit cold! Looking forward to seeing everybody else from Monday onwards...Chip has missed his regular furry buddies! 🐾

Diary is now open for new behaviour bookings also! 📖

I hope everybody keeps warm this weekend and hopefully we don't get much snow 🌨❄️
