Some of the last Puppy Squadders of 2024. Thank you for coming along, I know it’s tricky to commit to weekly sessions in December. But what a brilliant term! Well done to you all! I look forward to seeing some of you at the Puppy Squad + classes in January, otherwise I’ll see you and your lovely dogs around soon. Merry Christmas to you all!

Feeling grateful, receiving comments like this makes me love my job even more. It’s not all about training, it’s working out why and investigating into every little possible reason for behaviours to make sure we’re not missing a crucial element. Then we make the changes 🙏🏻

Little Momo didn’t want to go in her crate to settle during the day which means she hasn’t been getting enough sleep, and you know what that results in 🦈
We’ve been teaching Momo that the door isn’t going to shut as soon as she goes in and that she can come out if she likes. But then she chooses to go back in to find some super nice treats ruffled into her blanket. Moving forward we add a cue to go into the crate. We’re using “in your bed”, then adding a sit and a lay down where she continues to get some tiny rewards. After some practice, she started to lay down and relax. It can take time and patience to teach them to settle in a crate so keep going!

Big bouncy Wallace is a 7 month old Golden Doodle. This lovely boy will be joined by a human sibling early next year so we’re getting started on preparing him for all the changes ahead. Firstly we’re working on the typical challenges that come with an adolescent:-

✅ jumping on people
✅ chasing dogs in the park
✅ loose lead walking
✅ lowering arousal
✅ building focus
✅ improving recall
✅ settling around distractions

Whilst this is ongoing Wallace is also going through some gentle desensitisation to baby noises, learning to relax, building an instant ‘drop’ and ‘leave’, settling on a mat during baby feeding/nappy changing and walking with a loose lead next to the pram. This is just scratching the surface! We have a package in place to make sure we progress and he’s already smashing the training out the park 😉

I’ve been working with Goofy since June. He’s a wonderfully rambunctious and affectionate boy who was getting over aroused by other dogs and people. We had a couple of 1-2-1s then he joined the Puppy Squad Teens classes which was initially challenging but we kept going! Between the classes he was lucky enough to have solo walks with my good friend .southern2 who worked on progressing calm behaviours and focus. Thanks Rich! 🙏🏻 And thanks so much to .rizou and Tom for this review. Goofy is a lucky boy to have such a kind a dedicated family! See you in the Spring for some adult classes! 🙌🏼

The Puppy Squad Teens class finally ended this Saturday after weather cancellations. What a fantastic day to finish the term! Well done to all these people and their brilliant adolescent dogs! 🙌🏼 They’ve progressed their recall, lead walking, settling around distractions, emergency stops, scent work and even agility! I’ll miss you! Hopefully see you soon for some adult classes in Spring ‘25.

This great big baby, Buddy, is starting Puppy Squad tomorrow. We had an initial puppy home visit a couple of weeks ago and I’m expecting him to have doubled in size since. And guess what he’s most excited about over anything else… yep… other dogs! See you tomorrow Buddy, lickimat and snuffle box will be waiting for you on arrival!
