ALL GONE 😁

Would any of my clients like these?
Nothing wrong with them, they are just piling up in the cupboard as I keep forgetting to do it! 😆

Another super busy week with this wonderful lot! Lots of sunny walks and lots of learning in behavioural sessions. Super proud of you all pushing through on your behaviour journeys 💪🥰

Just on the final job of the week now and then I will be catching up on some admin and enquiries. If you haven't heard from me by the end of the day, just give me a nudge 😀

On another note, I am taking some time off from 13th to 21st April 📖

I hope you all have a lovely weekend 💕

I just love these beautiful fluffy faces 😍 💕 I am very lucky to work with some gorgeous doggies!

Keeping this short and sweet this week as I am ready for my bed after another busy week 😴 😅

Will catch up on admin and bookings tomorrow morning 📖

I hope you all have a lovely weekend 💜

“Animals have come to mean so much in our lives. We live in a fragmented and disconnected culture. Politics are ugly, religion is struggling, technology is stressful, and the economy is unfortunate. What’s one thing that we have in our lives that we can depend on? A dog or a cat loving us unconditionally, every day, very faithfully.” – Jon Katz

This weeks posing pooches 🐕 🐾 🤩

This week has been absolute bliss in the Spring sunshine and the pups have definitely had the joys of Spring in them with some of their bouncy, cheekiness! 😝

Behaviours covered this week have been reactivity, walking on the lead, sensitivities and confidence building. I also had the pleasure of meeting the lovely Kate at The Natural Dog Groomer yesterday, thank you so much for your time (won't let me tag you!) 💕

I will be catching up on admin this morning and also sending out messages about a week off that I am having over Easter. I will then be having a well deserved lazy Sunday before another busy week 😴 ☺️

I hope you all have a lovely weekend 🥰

This weeks posing pooches 🤩🐕🐾

The sun has got his hat on 🌞 well for most of the week he had 😅. The walking pooches still enjoyed the mud and the puddles in the sunshine though!

Behaviours covered this week have been resource guarding, demand barking and developing sensitivites. The main focus has been resource guarding though this week. I've had alot of enquiries for this behaviour recently and it shows alot in cocker spaniels and cockapoos 🐕 its a challenging behaviour but these superstars are doing so well 👏

Im off to enjoy the rest of weekend now and look forward to another fun packed week next week 😀 may even pop to Crufts next weekend 🤔

Have a lovely weekend all 🥰

Little bit of a quieter week for me this week with it being half term. Back to normal next week with the school doggies back and behaviour sessions resuming 👩‍🎓

Just a reminder I am off this weekend (and full of cold just in time for it 😅). Enquiries will be responded to on Monday when business resumes ✉️

Thank you guys for all your support as usual and I hope you all have a lovely weekend 🥰

📢 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 🙌

This weeks posing pooches 🥰🐕🐾

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 ✉️

Guys....I HAVE MY PHONE BACK 🙌🙌🙌
It's been alot the last couple of weeks with both my phone and car breaking. The two main things I rely on 🙄
Good news is is phone is fixed and I now have a new car so all is fabulous! Thank you all so much for baring me, normal business shall resume tomorrow 💪

This week has been great none the less. Some new starters on their behaviour journey this week and some continuing. All have been working so hard towards their goals and I love being a part of that journey ❤️

If you would like help on your journey, please drop me a message or call me 📞

Next weekend I am taking some time out to recuperate. I am going on a day out with Chip so I will bring you all along with me as usual 😌

I hope you all have a great week!

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 💗

A day in the life of a dog behaviour and walking business. This is a typical day for me. 6 and a half hours, 29646 steps and 10 wet noses (11 if we include Chip) 🐕🐾
