So it’s a weee bit cold today for forest school which means a home day with the boys for me

Hudson is asleep on the sofa and Clay is “working” with me so that we can still get some work done

The dogs have been on a run up the canal this morning with Darren so now they’re enjoying a nice little morning snooze too.

How are you all enjoying the weather?? I kinda like it 🫢❄️❄️

Shock horror!! My dogs are allowed on furniture!

We get this a lot where clients ask us if it’s ok if there dogs are on the furniture? Well in our eyes there’s absolutely nothing wrong with it if you don’t mind it, it’s just a case of mutual manners of being able to say can you get off please and then wanting to oblige with no conflict and likewise you respecting their space if they’re asleep or resting and leaving them be unless you can give warning.

When you have a great relationship there should be no quibbles about getting on or off something and everything is an equally shared resource.

If you’d like to find out more about how to do this then head over to our free group where we post advice and videos on how to live a great life with your dog

Juggling is real!

Darren kindly took this photo when all 4 of us crashed (don’t worry I haven’t had another child lol the tiny baby is my nephew).

Multi dog households or especially puppies can be exhausting! Trying to get on a sleep schedule and toilet training and all the attention they need! Argh it’s tough work!

I see a lot of people going wrong by overstimulating young dogs and giving them too much to do, it would be like keeping a toddler going in a soft play or playing with friends with 20min power naps in between and trust me that is no fun for anyone!

So top tip for today - think about how much rest and chill time you’re actively scheduling in for your young dogs and breaks away from each other with multi dogs

It’s National Labrador Day! Show us some photos & videos of your lovely Labs 🥰🐶🐾

Did you know we have chickens?

5 to be precise and it’s so lovely!

Although with a very high prey driven dog who will kill we’ve had some work to do to make sure he’s not constantly trying to get into the chicken area!

First off we covered our windows in the house where the dogs normally chill as they’re all glass to the garden so those tempting chickens to eat were always in his eye line.

Secondly we only let him out in the garden on lead to ensure he couldn’t reinforce himself by getting to the coop area and keep jumping up at it.

I then did targeted training sessions with him at a distance and on lead that every time he looked at the chickens he got a treat, distance was key here.
We than gradually got closer and closer and I became more interesting because he quickly cottoned on that the chickens were a good thing because every time he looked at them he got a goody. He then was no longer bothered by looking at them because all that adrenaline rush was starting to subside.

We worked up to dropping the lead so that he was “off lead” but if he made a poor choice then I could collect him up and guide him back to treat land.

I’d say this took maybe a week in total and ever since he doesn’t pay much if hardly any attention to them, unless of course I’m taking some yummy treats out for the chickens too 🐾

So if you have a dog that it perhaps reacting to certain triggers, maybe through a window and is barking non stop then look to reduce the visual stimulus so they don’t get to practice as often and have some treats at the ready 🤓

Throwback to when we were working with this handsome chappy! ❤️

Can anyone guess his breeds?

When we get stuck!

Yes even the professionals get stuck! This particular case has had me pickling my brains with lots of research around potential neurological issues with aggressive “attacks”. We’ve been making progress but it still wasn’t sitting well with me that we do not have a clear answer yet.

In search of getting a resolution for this lovely family I’ve been drawing on contacts who speacialise in different areas and today I considered an alternative approach on play based so brought in my amazing friend and colleague Canine Connections to support me and get a second pair of eyes.

You see whilst all of us whi work with dogs are pretty darn good at what we do, there are always going to be times where a second set of eyes is needed. I do not personally see this as a weakness but a great opportunity to collaborate and to continue stretching my brain to keep thinking outside the box.

This is also another reason why our programmes are over 3 and 6 months because if in this particular case we had done a consult only, we would be no further along in understanding what is going on and it’s likely this family would keep trainer hopping and getting lots of conflicting advice leaving this poor boy confused like his humans would have been.

I have high hopes for this boys outcome and looking forward to being a part of the continued journey

When you’ve had the absolute joy of working with amazing people and their dogs today!

I want to shout out to our amazing community for how well they support each other, this morning we were able to set up several types of scenario that worked for each dog individually! Yes individually in a group setting! This is so important to set your dog up to succeed. Using each other and each other’s dogs, the dogs we were working came away with so much knowledge and practical application it was just a joy to see all the leaning taking place.

Then another shout out to one of our newest members this afternoon who’ve been working so hard since their kick start session I honestly didn’t recognise the dog this afternoon! He no longer wanted to kill me but work and play with his humans ❤️❤️❤️

It’s been a great day in the mud and the rain surrounded by awesomeness!

Hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend

Busy morning so far…

It’s half term so we had a play session with the boys as they wanted to have a lazy day in their PJs. I also have two uni assignments due so I spent an hour working on that whilst Darren continued to play with the boys.

I’ve just completed my first training session of the day with an amazing client and their border collie (watch out for an update on this case) and I’m now off to see two long-standing clients for my next two appointments.

As it’s half term we’re then taking the boys pumpkin picking ❤️

Not a bad way to start the week

We’ve been working at creating some new content over the last few days and realised it’s just too funny to not share the bloopers! So if you have a spare minute and want a laugh, please do enjoy 🤣

We'd like to share a glimpse into one of our current behaviour cases, where we are working closely with a brave client and their canine companion. The footage was provided by the client as they sought our guidance in addressing their dog's aggression. At Paw Education, we know behaviour change is a gradual and intricate process that requires patience, commitment, and collaboration from all parties involved. As the behaviourist, my priority lies in ensuring safety, providing unwavering support, and offering valuable education throughout the journey. Our comprehensive programme is tailored for the long term, aiming to support families and their beloved dogs every step of the way. From examining underlying emotions to considering environmental factors and past experiences, we dive deep into the multifaceted aspects of the dog's behaviour. Collaboration with the veterinary team is fundamental to our approach. Clinical assessments are referred back to the vet, ensuring the holistic well-being of the canine client. Together, we create a tailored plan that aligns with the family's dynamics and lifestyle. We know it's not a one-size-fits-all solution. Behind the scenes, extensive research takes place, enabling us to see the bigger picture and make well-informed decisions. While not always apparent, this behind-the-scenes work is crucial in developing effective behaviour modification strategies. We believe in looking beyond the surface to create lasting change, where dogs and families can thrive together in harmony. Our journey has just begun, and we are eager to witness the positive transformations that lie ahead. If you are facing behavioural challenges with your four-legged friend, remember that you are not alone. Reach out to us and get yourself added into our community group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/720638778598164/?ref=share Together, we'll pave the way for a happier and healthier bond with your canine companion. #PawEducation #BehaviourChangeJourney

Amazing session with little Enzo the puppy this morning working on his recall skills. Today we worked on recall with a distraction he was awesome!

We had a brilliant time yesterday at our monthly group coaching session! Here we are learning about shaping. We decided it would be great fun to test it out on the owners whilst the dogs had a well deserved rest after some intense training 🐶🐾 #forcefreedogtraining #positivereinforcement #dogbehaviourist #dogbehaviourtraining #dogbehaviourspecialist

We like to say that we’re a little bit different from the norm, in reality, unless you work with us you’d never think or even know that. Outside looking in, we’re just another dog trainer in an incredibly saturated market with endless competition for business with a massive array of choice for dog owners to choose from. All dog trainers are the same right? They just charge different prices right? Wrong. So what the bloody hell are we going to start doing to get that message out? Our commitment is to show you who we are, lay it all out, the highs and the lows! When you work with us you truly become an extension of our family (those of you who work with us can of course vouch for this 😉) and we share everything! The joys, the tears and the frustration. We LOVE what we do and we need to start shouting more about it!

Woohoo! Day twelve😊 Two more sleeps until Christmas 🎄🎅🏻 Today’s game is nose targeting! We love target work in fact it’s one of Kerry’s favourite games to teach! 😊 How to play: Your dog will need to be confident with nose targeting to play, don’t worry if they are not we will post a video to explain how to begin. If your dog know this behaviour do a couple of reps with them to warm them up, then get a piece of wrapping paper, post it or a bit of tissue paper not to big just enough that it covers your hand. Once you have the paper ask them for a nose touch Don’t worry if your dog doesn’t do it first time its all about practice 😊 Have fun! Post your videos in the comments below or send it over to [email protected]

Here it is day 11 🎅🏻🎄 Funder (fun and under 😊) is such a great game to play to build on confidence, proximity and helps with recall too! How to play: Throw a piece of food out in front of you to get them moving (make sure if you are playing this outside you use food that’s easy to find like cheese or chicken so it doesn’t blend in with the grass/mud) Once they come running back towards you throw a piece of food between your legs so they have to run through your legs to get the piece of food. If you have a large dog you can throw the food to the side of you 😊 Whilst they are eating the food turn around to face the other way and throw the food through your legs again It’s easy and so much fun but adds so much value to the relationship you have with your dog. Don’t forget to wear Christmas pyjamas, if you do not have any, any Christmas wear will be fine 🎅🏻 Post your videos in the comments below or email it over to [email protected]

Our Story

Paw Education is all about dog behaviour and modification programmes. We set the business up after very quickly realising that owners nowadays want and require ongoing support with their dogs, something that unfortunately doesn't happen too often. Ergo, Paw Education, in other words, we're receiving poor education on our four paws today and this is something we're passionate about changing.

Jo and Darren are a married couple who live and breathe dogs, they own 2 beautiful Siberian Huskies - Axel, the white pup! (even though he's 3 years old now), and Laika, the wiser older sister! Their lives are dedicated to continual learning in the dog behaviour industry, regularly attending courses and have trained with Sarah Whitehead, a well known animal behaviourist in the dog industry. All methods follow one very strict rule - positive reinforcement! No negativity here. Having fun and making learning enjoyable for both owner and pooches alike!
