I saw a funny video today asking people if they'd get a tattoo from someone who has no tattoos. It made me wonder, would you use the services of a dog trainer who had no dogs? Curious to hear opinions and why! ๐
I have two Dobermanns, this is Nova today ๐ผ
This is a little no-conflict exercise I teach dogs and puppies to let go of the ball easily ๐ฅ
It's been a looonngg time since I've thrown a dumbbell for Nova! She still remembers though ๐ฅน
If you're struggling with a down stay, I can help! It's all about starting with no distractions and gradually building up duration and distraction, but don't do both at the same time! Start easy and slowly.
Please note these are my own sheep, please keep your dogs on lead around livestock, unless you have permission from the owner ๐
A lovely little update from Stanley's owners, a couple of years after training, still walking well ๐
Some relaxed town walking with giant Schnauzer Hektor. Do you prefer to walk your dogs in the town or the countryside? I prefer the countryside, but the town is better for distractions ๐
Little rescue dog Beau HATED having her nails trimmed, causing a lot of stress and resulting in biting. So we taught Beau to file her own nails using sandpaper ๐
Relaxing walks with all shapes and sizes ๐ This spring weather has been crazy!
Dogs staying with me for residential training live in my home, as part of the family, never in kennels. This not only works perfectly for dogs who find kennels stressful, but also means it's the perfect opportunity to work on behaviours inside the house as well as out.
Lots of my clients choose to time their stays with their own holiday.
A little recall practise with Bluey ๐พ I think recall training is important for dogs of all sizes to enjoy offlead freedom safely
Happy loose leash walking ๐พ
