All a tad difficult here at the moment. My Pads van is still out of action. Managed to limp home on Tuesday night from Haughton. Got back and it conked out completely.
The clutch has gone and another two parts are smashed, one part the mechanic has struggled to get. But it’s looking like he may have found one 🤞 Now got to wait for confirmation and then for the part to be delivered!
So in the meantime the dogs and I don’t have a vehicle 🥲
I can get to training, lovely friends have offered to take me to haughton and I can go with Norman on Wednesday to Penkridge.
Apart from that the dogs and I are stuck without a van! And I don’t have a clue how long it’s going to take even IF he can get the part.
Absolute nightmare. We really don’t envisage how distressing it is when important things in your life and more importantly the lives of your dogs do go wrong. We take so much for granted don’t we.
A big thank you to my lovely friends for coming over to spend time with Lily and I for her to have fun. And a huge thank you to the lovely ladies who have offered lifts for me. What would we do without amazing friends in our lives and our dogs to take our stress levels down 🐾❤️

Hope everyone enjoyed their classes this week!? The dogs are doing great!
Hopefully the “Pads Van” will be fixed soon. The clutch went on it on the way from Haughton last night, hopefully it’s nothing else too! Our dogs weren’t keen on being in Normans car. Not something they are used to.
Lily enjoyed the bronze class thank you for making her welcome. With her broken shoulder when she was 5 months old and being out of action for 6 months while it healed. She hasn’t been able to join a class since puppy. Norman was really pleased with her. He’s done all the training with her himself 👌
Happy practising and enjoying those gorgeous dogs. See you next week 🐾

All breeds of dogs are different. They all learn things differently, at different paces. But get it right and they can all learn things and so can you!
When you are teaching them a new word do that at home or garden. Once they know what the word means, which doesn’t take long, practice in busy places with lots of different distractions. If you just practice things in places with no distractions you will struggle to get control of them when you need to.
Our classes are quite busy but that’s what everyone needs to get the best possible results for their future! Our trainers are extremely experienced. We’ve all had and have different breeds, cross-breeds, of dogs. So there’s nothing that we haven’t seen or had to deal with. Making us, more than most, capable of helping you and your dog with any aspect of training you both need.
If you want to know more about our classes or would like to join us. The best way to contact us is on

Hi if you can bear with us first thing. It’s taken Norman and I over an hour to do a 20 minute journey. We are a trainer down and it’s the one who kindly helps us clear up and set up. We will work as fast as we can. Thank you. Roz

These 3 get so very excited about coming up here in the van. Lily actually squeals ❤️ Where’s your dogs favourite place to run around like this 🐾

It’s very slippery under foot out there. So take care everyone 🐾❤️

Lily’s first time seeing snow! She got up at 5am needing to go to the loo. I took her outside she went WHOOPE and then wouldn’t come in for over an hour. By which time she was high as a kite and I was soaked. The joys of puppies and don’t we just love them for it ❤️ Fortunately the snows almost gone now, see you later 🐾

I know a few of you are struggling with the stay, it’s one of the most important things to teach them for lots of reasons. So…. When they are first learning the exercises, or they seem to have gone backwards as they do! Make sure they are settled before you leave them (eventually you will be able to just say stay and walk away!) Give a firm command Stay! Then walk a short distance away. (There needs to be distractions as you can see my other two dogs are playing ball in the background. Plus there’s a dog walking around the field she’s watching!) Go calmly back to their side reinforcing the stay command. Praise verbally, reward and then release. Lily, for those who don’t know, had two major surgeries on a broken shoulder at 4 months old. So hasn’t done anything much until now. Plus she’s 10 months old. The “adolescent” cheeky-naughty stage. Practice every day. It’ll soon build up the time you can leave them in a stay before releasing them. Make sure you are praising the sit or down stay, not them moving before they have been released! I love teaching them things and it tires dogs out the fastest making them use their brains 🐾❤️

Hi do your dogs love going off lead in a safe space for having fun??

On a positive note. Lily’s first run around in a field with her family since her first shoulder surgery in June ❤️

A new entertaining toy. Not to be left with Lily for obvious reasons. GSP rescue where selling them as part of their mission to raise money for their charity 🐾🥳

Well as expected the recall is getting a bit cheeky now we’re gaining confidence. So it’s just a bit more work to do ❤️

Been having some fun while practicing the “waits until allowed to move” 👏 Hopefully brain games and playing will tire them 🤞

Practicing sit by my side with other dogs going past in a narrow lane (not many dogs or people walking down our lane so only two 😉) Then a nice long recall👏

First tiny bit of off lead for 8 months old Lily since her broken shoulder surgery in June. Nothing around to do her any more damage. It’s all little steps to get her back to being a normal puppy 🥰

Rain or shine they still have to go out and looking at Helga and Eddy having so much fun it’s worth getting wet for 🐾❤️
