Think positive reinforcement is just about giving treats?

It's actually a powerful science-backed method that transforms your dog's behavior and strengthens your bond.

Positive reinforcement isn't just about rewards; it's about setting clear expectations and celebrating successes.

By consistently rewarding good behavior, you're encouraging your dog to repeat it, leading to a happier, more confident pup.

So next time your dog sits on command, remember: a little praise goes a long way.

Perfection isn't the goal in dog training—consistency is.

When you focus on being consistent rather than perfect, you create an environment where your dog thrives.

Imagine your pup learning cues without the pressure of getting everything right immediately. Each day, they get more comfortable and confident because they know what to expect from you.

Our positive reinforcement methods at Ceri's Canine Companions highlight this approach.

So, ditch the pressure of perfection and embrace the power of consistency. Your dog will thank you with wagging tails and happy barks!

Dogs aren't just acting out, they're trying to communicate their needs.

Understanding the emotions behind your dog's behavior can transform your relationship. Whether it's barking, chewing, or anxiety, there's often an emotional need not being met.

For instance, excessive barking could mean they need more physical or mental stimulation. Chewing might be a sign of stress or boredom. Instead of frustration, view these behaviors as opportunities to understand and meet their needs.

Our mission is to help you decode these signals, building a stronger bond based on trust and empathy.

Ever feel like your dog's training progress is moving at a snail's pace? Think again.

Small wins in dog training are actually huge milestones. That 'sit' command mastered or a calm walk around the block are victories worth celebrating.

Recognizing these achievements not only boosts your dog's confidence but also strengthens the bond between you. It's a positive cycle that makes both training and everyday life more enjoyable.

So next time your pup nails a command, give them a treat and yourself a pat on the back. You're both doing great!

The Begining

Where to start.

So my name is Ceri as you all may have guessed. I have worked with animals since I was 16 when I went on A work placement from collage to a dog trainer, I stayed on as a weekend girl once my placement finished. Since then I have worked at boarding kennels and then became a Veterinary Nurse. I qualified as a Vet Nurse in 2008 after spending 1 year working as an animal care assistant to see if it was the right place for me to be and then another 2 years training to become a Vet Nurse. I still love my job as a nurse but have felt that it was time for a change for a couple of years with that feeling growing stronger every day. I have been on furlough since the middle of April and my thoughts have gone to the business quite frequently during this time, so i decided now was as good a time as any to take the leap. I will still continue with my nursing and especially in the early days of starting a business from scratch. this does mean that some of my services may only be on a part time basis.

I’m fully insured and have a DBS check application in this can take up to 2 weeks to come back.

I’m looking to start taking appointment for walking from the 18th of June, I am really looking forward to meeting some new faces furry and human. I will be sticking to the current guidelines all will be carrying out strict social distancing. Things may change depending on when I am required to go back to work as a Vet Nurse but I will definitely keep you all updated as things move forward.
