Just a quickie regarding a post on Sanderstead Community page asking for someone to host the dog show at Sanderstead Community Day this year. Have had quite a few folk sending me the link to the post in case I am interested nd just want you to know that I was asked a while ago if I wanted to host this and I declined 😊

This is what "following mode" looks like when your dogs are pack walking with you. A trigger will snap them out of this state of mind, but you can return them to it quickly when need be #dogwhispering #dogbehaviourist

The mental connection. No need for commands once a protocol is learnt #youandyourdog

Food protocol is hugely important around high-value items such as bones. Get it right from a young age to avoid resource guarding #dogwhispering #dogbehaviourist

Double trouble today😍

Learning front door protocol and swapping from a harness to a correctly positioned slip lead makes ALL the difference with a dog that is a terrible lead puller 👏 👏 👏 #dogwhispering #stopleadpulling

Recall reminder. The type of recall you need to use depends on the situation and the level of activity in your dog's brain. With a calm relaxed dog, informal is fine. More excited brain will likely need Formal. The release in this gives you time to put a lead on, and finally the whistle when the other two dont work!! #typesofrecall

Loose Lead Walking. Sorted in 15 mins. Once your dog knows you want a calm following state and no excitement, walking on a loose lead becomes so much simpler. No need to bribe or distract, what you do is CONNECT and walk together in harmony. It's harder for the human to learn than the dog! #dogwhispering #nopulling #doingthewalk

My crazy collie! The lawnmower excites her. She is allowed to herd whilst I cut and carry a toy, but no lunging. All i did to change her demeanour was to show her my teeth and do a low growl! Notice how her tail comes right down and her head goes to the side, in an avoidance move. Fascinating! #influencingdogs #lawnmowersanddogs

More of human aggressive pomchi, Jimmy. Establishing that inside the house I want a calm state of mind from him and also for him to trust me. How we enter the house matters, but also how we exit the house . Notice how his tail is down and he lip licks when i am too close to his bed #rescuepomchi #dogwhispering #dogbehaviourist

Some rare footage of me at work😊 terratorial aggression in the house is a big problem for Jimmy. He had a bad start in life before he was rescued by his current owner #rescuepomchi #dogwhispering #creatingacalmfollowingstate

Sometime a reboot is necessary! #everdaylifewithmydogs #bordercollierescue

Everyday Life....new gas pipe being fitted. No problem. After introducing the dogs to the gas men they understand they arent a threat, so accept them working in my house #dogwhispering #everdaylifewithmydogs

#longcoatchihiahua #vetfearhelp #zentherapyfordogs

Everyday Life. Boston is trembling still at the vets. Much better than he used to be, but the adrenaline is still pumping. See the next vid for how my Zen Therapy technique helps him....#longcoatchihuahua #vetfear #zentherapyfordogs

Iggy Update! Iggy's owner reports that he is so much better on walks. Whistle training has been a gamechanger! #recallwork #rescuedog #goiggy

Take your dog anywhere when it knows how to settle! #settling #dogwhispering #dogbehaviourist

At your wits end?

Tried everything and still can’t sort your dogs behavioural issues? Here at Take The Lead I teach you how to sort common behavioural problems by showing you how to interact with your dog in a way he understands, in other words, to 'talk dog'. Dogs don’t speak English, they communicate through body language, amongst other things. Once you learn how to effectively let your dog know what you want him to do in different situations, behavioural issue become relatively easy to sort. Lead pulling, poor recall, destructiveness, aggression, excess barking, I can help with all these things and more. Just like people, every dog is different, so it is important for me to assess your dog (and you!) and come up with a tailored lesson plan to deal with his issues. You will receive helpful information sheets after each session and I am always there for futher advice at the end of the phone.

Check out the reviews from some of my existing clients - just click on the 5 Stars on my page. Remember, don’t despair - dogs aren’t born with problems, those problems are created through living in our ‘human’ environment. With the right approach, it is possible to get you back on track and allow you to enjoy a happy and mutually fulfilling relationship with your dog.
