Proud to be a Canine Arthritis Management Advocate. As a CAM Advocate I am entitled to advertise my greater understanding of osteoarthritis in dogs and through incorporation of this knowledge in my professional work, to offer you a qualified, compassionate and understanding service.
Nobody should suffer in silence. 80% of dogs over 8 years old have arthritis, which is a major cause of elective euthanasia.
Awesome session this afternoon with a stunning 2 year old silver Labrador who I first met for puppy training when he was just 14 weeks old. Goodness how he's grown!
Some believe the silver colour is a result of adding Weimaraner into the gene pool, others believe it's a natural dilution of the brown colour gene. Either way, beautiful.

Have just completed an amazing course through Michael Shikashio's 'Aggressive Dog', entitled "Eating is Essential".
Whilst not directly dealing with canine aggression this was most informative regarding 'picky' eaters, elderly dogs whose appetites have naturally waned over the years and animal husbandry.
I will always continue to pursue my studies to bring you the best and most up to date, scientifically proven, force free service possible.
New Puppy Client. A wonderful 6 month old Cockapoo who is very enthusiastic to learn new skills, as the tail demonstrates!

Warmer weather is on it's way ☀️.
If you haven't already, it's time to think about providing our dogs shade, fans, dawn or dusk walks and perhaps a cooling swim or a crunchy ice cube.
For more information on caring for our dogs on warmer days see the link below.

Special holiday adventures for my own dogs so far this week have included - a visit to https://www.facebook.com/tomandteds where my Odo rather misjudged a water landing (he's ok).
Excellent recall training session today at Strawberry Field. Almost 100% focus for the whole length of the field! Fantastic achievement for this XL American Bully who is only 19 weeks old.
Superstar Patterdale Border Terrier pup shows us how it’s done. Stop, sit, wait and recall Note wait is wait there til I ask you to do the next thing. What a clever puppy.
I am often asked about dog play getting ‘out of hand’ with humans so I regularly suggest copying what dogs do - stop play and be a boring statue. Here are my two dogs playing. Note how my male on two occasions stops the play by being a statue and deliberately looks away from the female. Note how she lip licks to confirm the break giving off a classic calming signal after which, the male resumes play. But also note how in the dog world things happen very fast, much faster than in the dog / human world. On the last occasion my male pretends he is interested in something else rather than her and that too gives a break in play as she again lip licks to confirm she is ready for the break.
Superstar Patterdale Border Terrier Cross Puppy was on a roll today with ‘textbook’ recall (at Willows Walk secure off lead area).
Superstar Patterdale Border Terrier Cross Puppy nails another new skill - the tunnel- a Terrier favourite! (at Willows Walk secure off lead area).
