🐾 Today I had the pleasure of working with Betty and Frank for the first time. Like lots of couples, Betty and Frank have their ups and downs and the relationship isn’t always as harmonious as it could be. Betty also struggles with meeting other dogs which can make her one stressed out little lady 😵‍💫

We had a lovely afternoon working on:
✅ Calmness and settling 😌
✅ Lots of ideas for enrichment as Border Terriers have busy brains which need to be kept occupied! 🧠
✅ Disengagement - Betty loves standing at the window watching the world go by however sometimes a passing squirrel or bird can be a little bit too exciting!🐿️

If you’re having any similar struggles and looking for some support and guidance to help your dog or puppy then please get in touch, book a call through the link in bio 👆📞 or drop me a DM.
