🔥 NEW CLIENT 🔥

👉🏽 This is Dave. Dave is a 2 year old Labrador and is now doing 1-2-1 enrichment dog walks with me.

We are working on some common struggles such as jumping up. Dave is fast learning to focus on me and to wait patiently for food to be delivered to him from my hand (rather than stealing it)!

Dogs don't come pre made to know our language and expectations. We need to teach them what we want them to do.

If you're interested in hiring me to help you figure out some solutions then get in touch through the website. We'll meet you over there 🐶

GO ON THE DOG 🐶

It's warming up and I'm A LOT BIGGER than this little tinker 💕 If the dog is dragging or lays down, that's ok. Give them a moment and choose an appropriate time to move on. It makes for a better relationship between the two of you. Yes it can be frustrating but this is where we work Roth the breath, slow down and practise patience. Misty is in her senior years bless her.

Whatever you resist, persists - so if I want Misty to give in to lead pressure than I need to respect her requests as well. And that's why we have the relationship we do. If you need help building a relationship with your dog, then get in touch.

Hello everyone, I am Alex and I am a games based Dog Trainer in

PUPPIES

Getting a new puppy is testing and challenging. There is no doubt in my mind about that. I think where the doubt lies, is in the belief that a good job is being done. Sometimes, overwhelm can take over and one can feel out of one's depth. With my expertise and your love and work, we can grow the desired results.

Visit our website to submit a contact form now and let's get you all on the path to a successful, loving and respectful relationship with you and your dog.

💞 Hi, I'm Alex and I'm a games based Dog Trainer in Southend-On-Sea, Essex 💞

👉🏽 Solitude is the strength of being alone. Loneliness is the weakness of being alone.

🐾 When lockdown hit us, a lot of people started working from home and lot of people got a dog. A lot of people may have felt alone, so, got a dog. And because a lot of people were around all day, they didn't build value in being away from the dog. This results in a need and a want to be around you and a stress when you are bit around.

💪🏽 By playing games, building value in a crate or room, you can develop a much healthier relationship with your dog. Building value in solitude will be healthier both mentally and physically. We all know what stress can do to us!

Hi, I'm Alex and I'm a games based dog trainer in Southend-on-Sea, Essex 👋

🆙 JUMPING UP ⬇️

Do you have a dog that likes to jump up? Have you asked yourself why they do this? Is there food on the counter? Does the jumping get reinforced with attention? If this was the case could you understand why the dog would continue to do it. They're not going to understand that sometimes it's okay and sometimes it's not. They're not going to understand that they can only do it to you and not to the counter or the person in the coffee shop, that's got food on the plate..

👉🏽 In order for a dog to stop the rehearsal of jumping up, they need to understand that there was more value being down on the floor. Food should get delivered calmly to the ground. We can also look to add in a behaviour (such as a sit to say please).

If a dog has been jumping up for most of their life, they're going to that 'sit' we suddenly want pretty quickly. We need to work on a sit with duration and reinforce the behaviour we want. We need to get the dog thinking and perhaps a jump on cue can be introduced.

If you need help teaching your dog that there is value when all of their feet on the ground, then you can visit www.happyhooch.co.uk for more information or send us a message 🐶⭐️

Building trust with a dog is super important. If you don't have a trust between you, results will be harder. You need to feel comfortable around your dog and your dog does you. You're both learning another language after all.

Remember the riddle me toddler days where you just didn't have a clue what your 2 year old was saying? Doesn't it feel better now you can understand? You've built a relationship, a trust and a mutual understanding for one another's needs. Hhhmmmm...

Your dog doesn't speak the same language as you so communication and clear instruction is key 🗝️

⭐️ CONSIDERATION ⭐️

When you're teaching your dog new tricks, do you consider all aspects of the environment.

For example, if I have a nose to the ground spaniel, I may roll a few pieces of food across the wood floor. It's easy for him to see and he will quickly disengage from that floor and orient back to me. I'm less likely to roll it across the carpet as I don't want him to get stuck in sniffing around, spaniel style. I may use the comfy and warm carpet for static training. Magic hand (catching food that falls between the fingers into the mouth) is a good one for focus and keeps the sniffy spaniel's nose off the ground.

I may also choose the carpet for practising a roll over. The carpet is a much more reasonable choice than a cold wood or tiled floor. You get me?

I've been working really hard and today, I heard dogs barking and didn't react. Not only that, but I've been doing lots of DMT with my handler and I'm slowly but surely building a more confident skill set and learning that good things come out the monkey when I see a dog. My handler loves me and my owner sees that I'm calmer. Just look at my only half wreck rail and happy face!

If you hoomans aren't sure what DMT it, ask Alex! She'll explain. You can catch her on here or at www.happyhooch.co.uk

Peace out ✌🏽

⭐️ ENRICHMENT ⭐️
- Have you asked yourself why? Rather than STOP ✋🏽 the behaviour, give them an outlet for the behaviour.

Shredding is a natural canine behaviour. If your dog has a high prey drive or they're bored, they will shred! And they don't care if it's your sofa either. Giving your dog mental stimulation is a healthier way for them to gain enrichment over making bad choices and getting scolded for it. After all, they are only dogs and dogs act on instinct. Teaching them what you want them to do and supervising their activities is a much more beneficial option all round.

Reading a dog's body language can prove tricky and we often mistake it. Fear can be mistaken for excitement and just because a dog's tail is wagging, doesn't mean they are happy. A dog may often put themselves in a situation they feel fearful of as well. I have often gone out with a smile on my face when I have been feeling anxious inside.

There is a misconception that putting the dog in the situation will help them through it. Taking a step back, grounding the dog and building towards the situation is a more better option and will develop a more trusting and precious bond between the two of you.

Isn't that what everyone wants?
