Alongside this, you may have seen my posts about setting up PetLine UK to offer low cost training and behaviour help plus higher paid options.
I have now put on 2 short home study beginners courses.
One is for Separation Anxiety
another for Reactive Dogs.

You will see that these are for beginners and encourage people to also find good trainers and behaviourists.
See the PetLine Site

PetLine UK offers initial free advice for dog and cat behaviour and training issues. Ongoing help at affordable fixed fees. Force free methods.

I have just been speaking to a rescue and have sent them my plan to give to potential or actual adopters. Several rescues use it with my permission.
I can send it via email in word format if it will help anyone.
It starts from preparing for your new dog to how to manage the first few weeks and can be edited to match a specific dog.

Thanks for all your messages and support. I will sort a new page out for the new venture asap.
With rescue in crisis and the cost of living affecting us all, this is our latest help offering.
Petline UK has an active website now. More work needed on it but it is a start. Half hour free with helpsheets emailed. Other paid options by phone, video, home visit etc
It will develop as it is used and refined where needed.

Too many microchips are not holding the current details and causing problems. Please make sure your dog is chipped and that the current address is on the record.
Ensure the chip is registered with a DEFRA compliant database and that you are not fooled into updating your chip through a google result that does not lead to a compliant company.
Go only to the proper website of the company holding your record and not a 3rd party.
It is law that cats and dogs must be chipped. For pups they must only be sold when at least 8 weeks old and microchipped.
https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2023/468/body/made
The expert witness work is extremely busy and myself and my expert colleagues I work with are struggling to fit everything in.
Please be vigilant, control your dog and do message for advice if you need it.

These Regulations provide for the compulsory microchipping of cats and dogs and the recording of each cat’s or dog’s identity and its keeper’s contact details on a database.

How sad to read of the death of Sarah Fisher. I met her a few times, she was a kind, calm and caring person who changed our understanding of animals and always helped every person that needed it.
Her work will go on and she will be very missed by everyone. My condolences to her family and friends.

Merry Christmas to all owners, police, solicitors, assistants, supporters, rescues and everyone involved in the world of dogs.
Stay safe over the holidays, don't overwhelm your dogs.
Have a peaceful and happy time.
My thanks to everyone who has helped this year.

Morning all. There are a lot of advice sheets in photos about law, tenancy issues, child safety etc. Feel free to copy them or there are copies in other formats. If you message your email address, we can send them to you. In the meantime, the sheets we made for preparing to adopt or foster and advice going forward are copied here again.
Feel free to share.
