As a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers, UK, I am keen to help people train their dogs and puppies using positive, kind and fair training techniques. I know how frustrating it can be when it seems that your dog isn't listening. But quite often, it's usually us, the owners who are not giving our dogs the right information. So, if you want a little bit of help (or a lot), to help learn the best ways to communicate with your dog or puppy, please give me a call.
Please let me know asap if you would like to attend this fab trio of workshops - friendly dogs only please. All details are on the poster below ๐๐พ๐พ Thank you!

Being blind can be a challenge for a dog, but it doesnโt have to prevent them from having fun and loving life. With acute hearing and an amazing sense of smell, for one of these dogs these senses are her โeyesโ now. Lovely to see the play between them. Would you have noticed one of them is blind?
Love my โjobโ ๐๐พ๐พ
A message from Ellie & Bo! Itโs a Bank Holiday weekend so remind your humans, no classes today.
And that meansโฆ.weโve got have the paddock to play on all weekend ๐๐พ๐พ Have fun - we are!!!๐พ๐พ๐ถ
These two dogs are very energetic and are getting to know each other. Theyโve had walks on-lead together, with a respectful distance between to keep them below threshold with their levels of excitement. Nose to nose meets have gone very well, just a few seconds initially and increasing at each meet. Today they had a fence run together and then a few face-meets through the gate. This is huge progress and weโre working on getting them together for a proper play date - time and patience is key. Well done to both owners for their dedication to calm and positive training with these two lovely boys. ๐
Lovely rescue dog Max had a go at the agility jumps this week. Heโs been a very wary, scared dog but trusts his lovely owner completely. Well Done Julie, heโs coping so well in the Fun and Focus classes, around other dogs and people and now heโs working on his fitness levels ๐๐พ๐พ Love it!
When your grown up puppy playmate comes to visit with his best friend you have to welcome them politely - even if they are sooooh much bigger than you! Well done Bo for being such a good host. ๐๐๐พ๐พ Lovely to see Baxter and Ciara, stunning dogs. ๐๐พ๐พ
Willow went along to her owners wedding, walking calmly down the aisle and showing what a superstar she is. A very special guest! Congratulations to you all - just beautiful! ๐
I love to see clientsโ dogs trying out the activities we post. Sophie and Bea having fun with the homemade bottle spinner ๐ When a walking isnโt always possible, brain games are just as tiring! ๐๐๐พ๐พ
Waiting patiently for that fleeting glance of eye contact from Reggie, before he gets the โokayโ to take the treat. We did agility, with weave poles, balance work and a special bit of training to desensitise Reggie to having his nails clipped. One nail clipped - a first for his owner so a huge step for them both!
Lovely photo of Reggie back home after all his hard work this afternoon. Love my โjobโ ๐๐พ๐พโค๏ธ
Well Done to lovely Mitzi on gaining her APDT Good Companions Foundation Award. Mitzi has so much more confidence now and happily plays with the other dogs. One happy girl! ๐๐พ๐พ
Well Done to Sasha, the super-social butterfly! Sasha has gained her APDT Good Companions Foundation Award - quite an achievement for Sasha who gets easily distracted. Look at that smiley face! ๐๐พ๐พ
Well Done to super youngster Millie on achieving her APDT Adult Beginners Good Companions Award. Millie gets stressed sometimes but when given a task to do, she nails it! ๐๐พ๐
Now you all know Iโm a cool dog, (despite the pink hat!!) I love to play/work for a throw of the ball - human is impressed with me on this one ๐ Butโฆ I will chase after a ball in ANY weather and temperature โcos I canโt help myself.
As itโs so hot Petaโs wonโt let me play with a ball at all โcos she doesnโt want me to suffer from heat exhaustion - it could kill me apparently! Butโฆshe said I can have them when the weather is cooler ๐ So to all you humans - donโt play fetch with your dog in this heat!! Thank you ๐๐พ๐พ
A message from Ellie & Bo to all our client dogs - tell your human not to walk you in this heat!!! Weโve not even been on the paddock today. Petaโs taking us for a late-night forage when the sunโs gone down - weโve agreed itโs an excellent idea! Be like us - be cool!!

Hope youโre enjoying your Sunday. ๐ A little video of me and Ellie having some fun - with the little trip hazard getting involved where she can ๐คฃ๐คฃ No food involved to teach this as Ellie works for the ball. Love these happy hounds. ๐๐พ๐พ
Joe showing great focus as he waits for his recall cue. Joe left all nine items in temptation alley and did a perfect recall to owner, Christine. Well Done Team Joe! ๐๐๐พ๐พ
Tilly showing great focus as she waits for her recall cue. Tilly left all nine items in temptation alley and did a perfect recall to owner, Julie. Well Done Team Tilly! ๐๐๐พ๐พ

The mole hunter at work! Bo did catch a mole last week but didnโt know what to do with it. I gave it back itโs freedom so we will probably just have to learn to live with mole hills on the paddock and the excavating done by Bo! ๐คฃ
When a pup doesnโt get chance to interact with other dogs they donโt learn how to do appropriate off-lead โplayโ. The young brindle dog, Rocky, is gradually learning what is okay and what is not, with the help of these other super dogs. Thank you to their owners for trusting me to supervise the session for a positive experience for them all. ๐๐พ๐พ
Lovely interaction between handsome Beau and pretty Border Collie, Rose. Beau is so confident with a playful temperament. He doesnโt always read body language well from other dogs and isnโt put off by Roseโs attempts to round him up and head him off ๐ He knows he can outrun her too - he covers the ground like a gazelle! Rose isnโt frustrated by this as sheโs getting to chase him - just what she needs. ๐๐
Little Bo and Merlin had a lovely play session after class this week. Bo might be little but sheโs happy to play with bigger dogs and loves a good game of chase. Merlin has a super temperament. Lovely body language from Bo, encouraging puppy Merlin to play. ๐
So, mole catchers these two are not! Mole was in there but beat a hasty retreat! Iโve since had to fill in said hole to save anyone stepping into it!!! Happiness isโฆ..hunting for moles, even when you canโt catch them ๐๐พ๐พ
Hereโs a little video showing that Bessie can work around the other dogs and also work at a distance from her owner. Sending to a mat is such a useful task and Bessie demonstrates this so well. Well Done Bessie and Lisa ๐๐๐พ๐พ
This young GSD is learning to be calm around other dogs. Beni is a superb dog with a lovely temperament but heโs at that impulsive teenage stage. Lovely to see him doing so well in the group. He is learning so many social skills, including playing more respectfully with Bessie, the beautiful Corgi. Bessie is brill, shouts at Beni if he gets too boisterous with her and Beni backs off. Love that owners and their dogs are happy to work to help each other in the sessions. Thank you everyone. ๐๐๐พ๐พ
