The dog that helped shaped me as a guardian, trainer, a human.

Forever grateful to have been your person ❤️

Thank you Pepper

If I didn’t have my husband… I wouldn’t have got a puppy!

I’m hyper independent to the point it’s detrimental to my health (oops) but there is no way I’d have brought another dog into my life, especially a puppy without the support system I have.

I often see clients getting a puppy without really knowing how much their body and health is about to be hit. It’s HARD. I had a big POTs episode within two days of having Quince thanks to sleep training.

Is it selfish? Hmm, maybe. My husband and I spoke at length about getting another dog, and he was totally on board and wanted to be as involved as possible.

I knew what to expect; the biting, the crying, the cold trips outside at 3AM, the lack of impulse control, the amount of effort needed to socialise properly.

Can you imagine the shock that would hit you if you just thought it was having a bundle of fun in your home? I mean I think it’s fun, but it’s my job.

If you’d ever like to chat about the idea of a dog and want genuine, non biased advice, just drop me a message. Us dog trainers know the joy dogs can bring, but let’s not do it at the detriment of the dog themselves ❤️

What do guitar playing and dog training have in common? 🎸 🐕

They’re both skills that in the beginning you will be bad at!

And that’s ok, it takes time to practice and fine tune skill. I mean hey my guitar playing is campfire at best (thank god my dog training skills are better 🤣)

I have lots of guardians get frustrated that they can’t do what I do straight away, I’ve been doing this professionally over 5 years now, I would not expect people to be able to just be able to do it.

But don’t push that frustration aside, use it as fuel for practice, practice makes progress. I’m not going to say perfect because no one is perfect and that’s what makes the world more interesting 😉

So if you’re struggling, and unlike me with my guitar playing you’d like some professional guidance on working with your dog instead of just trying to figure it out, get in touch ❤️ I started guitar for some fun physio for my hands, but I keep on training dogs as it’s my passion and keeps me sane.

*Old Video*

I never set out to capture my symptoms; they just happen. I have very little footage of them.

But every so often, they sneak in and get captured anyway.

Living with a body like this changes everything: how I move, work, eat, enjoy life… and ultimately, how I train dogs.

Now, I get to help other disabled and chronically ill dog guardians find harmony with their dogs, without judgement or pressure.

Because accessibility matters, even in dog training.

I’m still here

I haven’t been as active on social media lately.

Grief is a big reason, I have my good days, where I maybe only cry twice. But those tears remind me of how much I love Pepper, we taught each other a lot and those lessons go on to help other dogs and their guardians.

Health is another one! As you may know, fighting that constant battle between being productive and actually resting is hard. I’m have to be mindful of my movements all the time to ensure I’m moving in the best way for my body, fuelling my body in the best way for itself and actually finding time to rest (easier said than done when you’re self employed!)

I’m spreading myself between presentations, training walks, and classes and behavioural work with Beastly Thoughts Professional Dog Services

The best ways to work with me at this current time are to be a WhatsApp Coaching Client, be in my free Inner Circle (message me for the sign up link) or to ask for me through the Beastly Thoughts team.

If you don’t know what to strive for, bonfire night is approaching, Christmas is approaching, lots of issues happen around this time of year and you only need to reach out.

All the best in the meantime ❤️

I also wrote for Love Wrexham this month ✨

A lot of my training advice can be slotted into the lives of busy, over worked dog owners, as well as my main clientele of disabled people, or people living with chronic illness.

I’ll drop the link 🔗 down in the comments 🥰

If this article aligns with what you’re feeling and you need that extra custom support, drop me a message. I have one space open for October for online support; a hybrid between video calls and daily text communication. Perfect for busy brains or like me, fatigued brains 🧠 😴
