Jumping up

Tips to prevent your dog jumping up a person.

When you see a person approaching put your dog immediately in a sit or down. Don’t wait until the person reaches you, as that will be too late.

Feed your dog in that position until the person moves away. Gradually you will reduce the amount of treats that you use. Eventually just using your voice as praise, but to get to that stage you need to practice regularly and get your timing right.

See photo of where your dog should be. By having your dog by your side or slightly behind this means you can use your leg in front of the dog to block an incoming dog or human.

Tip

Dog not keen on a bath.

Use a Licki mat. Add the food and put the Licki mat on the tiles around your bath at dogs nose level, before you take dog to the bath. This keeps dog focused on the food whilst you wash the dog. It also makes it a more pleasant experience for the dog.

Don’t tip water over dogs head, ears or face. Use a flannel instead.

Our dog of the month for November is a dog that joined us just 9 months ago. I remember that first lesson so well, he pulled like a steam train. He’s doing so well now, almost ready for his silver award and tonight he was doing gold exercises including distraction alley off lead and he did it both times.

Well done Bruno & family

Very proud trainer moment.

28/11/2023

Fabulous work from all our 7.30 dogs last night. All 5 did some wonderful off lead work, including distraction alley

22/11/2023

Teaching a pup to walk nicely happens very quickly once you know how. Then you need to be consistent, practice every time the lead is on, reward well and then maintain it.

Once you do that your treats can be phased out and replaced with another reward, a toy,a game, life rewards, praise with your voice or affection. Dogs will do what you allow. If you walk when they are pulling, they will learn to pull. Set your pup up for success.

In loving memory

It’s been 3 years since Adi was taken too early. Sometimes it feels like only yesterday. He really was very, very special. Gone, but never forgotten. You’ve taken a piece of our hearts with you.

Always in our heart, on our mind and in our thoughts. We miss you loads.
