Widget's Farm Run by a qualified animal behaviourist, Widget's Farm is a dedicated pet behaviour, training and rehab centre set in 14 acres in Standerwick.

Widget's Farm is over 14 acres of lovely countryside with ample secure space dedicated to dog training, rehab and secure field hire. Our training approach is to use learning theory to motivate and reward animals for the desired behaviours, and to change their negative view of a situation where one exists. We end up with happy, healthy dogs which learn to cope with stress and make better choices. A

nna, Widget's human, has an MSc in Clinical Animal Behaviour from Lincoln University, and is a member of a number of professional training and behaviour organisations. She also undertakes regular CPD to ensure Widget's Farm always provides the most up to date science-based training. We are also fully insured and staff are qualified in first aid. Located on the Somerset / Wiltshire border, we cover Frome, Bath, Trowbridge, Bradford-on-Avon, Shepton Mallet and the surrounding areas.

Dear field hire members, we've opened up later slots in the Paddock Field to help with the heat.

And I have no apologies for sharing a pic of the late, great Hippo.

Possible thunderstorms and lightening...

To help your dogs...
- keep them inside
- put on some background noise to minimise the surprise of any thunderclaps
- get slow feeder toys prepped
- get high value treats ready
- note your dogs may start to feel unsettled with the pressure change before a storm
- if a storm starts, give them a slow feeder toy
- if needed, give them a high value treat after each thunder clap
- give your dog support if they seek it (you can't reinforce worry)
- allow your dog to hide if they choose to - don't try and encourage them out if they are hiding somewhere safe.
- close curtains if they are distressed by any flashes
