Happy Hounds Dog Training & Secure Dog Walking Fields

Glad I am not the only one who sees the disgraceful breeding of dogs for looks and not health and function.
Please research your breeds.
The rescue centres are full of breeds like this because people can't afford the vets prices to deal with the health issues.
The kennel club and crufts could change this but they don't.
It sickens me that these dogs will live a short life of pain and discomfort

Mulch 😁

Do any of my customers work in tree surgery or garden maintenance and have access to large amounts of mulch for my trees?

Would happily exchange for field visits or pay for it.

Let me know

I have a space in dog training class on Saturday at 11.30 in Tytherington, this class is 2 weeks in so would suit someone with basics already (sit, down, leave, wait), or someone willing to work hard to catch up.

This course is older pups all between 5 to 9 months

Very rarely do i have a space mid course but sadly due to someone wasting my time repeatedly the space is available.

Please get in touch if interested

We used Celines Orchard for the first time this week and had such a lovely time with our 2 dogs. A very quiet, peaceful location, with lots to interest the dogs. It was quite nippy, so we were very pleased to make use of the tea making facilities would highly reccomend.

Wandering which poor dog is going to win the hideous crufts.

Maybe a french bulldog that can't breathe without surgery, or maybe a German shepherd that can't walk properly, maybe an English bulldog that can't give birth naturally or breathe, maybe a pug that can't breathe properly and will have eye problems. Maybe a Sharpei with skin conditions and bad eyes. Maybe a mastiff that will need eye surgery and wrinkles removed because of skin infections. Maybe a daschound that will have back and leg problems. Maybe a king Charles spaniel that have brain problems and eye problems. The list goes on.

I will stick with my rescue mongrels and will never support crufts in any way.

Dogs should be bred for health and temperament not as a fashion accessory to look a certain way at the detriment to their heath and welfare.

I know many of you will think it's wonderful but I hate crufts and what it stands for.

Like one of those awful beauty pagents where parents dress their children up like tarts.

If you disagree with me please just scroll on past because I will never support it.

When the BBC banned showing it exposing how corrupt it was and the inbreeding I jumped for joy and thought it would be banned. Sadly it wasn't.

As I said if you don't agree scroll past.

And yes I am aware they have tried to improve things but while we continue to breed for what humans see as desirable with no regard for the dogs health then I will have no part in it.

Whatever wins will become the new fashion dog wether appropriate or not for the people that want it because it won at crufts

Picture of my rescue mongrel, flea, who has hardly had a sick day in her life

Did you all see the ITV news last night about EDF?
I was dancing! We got rid of them!!!!!! and they have to put fish protection measures in as they should!
So glad all i have worked a lifetime for is now safe for a while.
My heart is full again, i have regained my passion and drive.
Such a massive weight lifted form my shoulders and from many others peoples shoulders.
I am so happy today, i have my purpose in life back.
The one good thing to come from all of this is the communities effected all coming together and fighting, i have many more friends now thanks to EDF.
Happy days

OH MY GOD!
SOME GOOD NEWS I BELIEVE!!!!!!!!!!
EDF ARE REMOVING COMPULSORY ACCESS TO OUR LAND AND HOPEFULLY THAT MEANS NO COMPULSORY PURCHASE OF OUR LAND!
I HAVE NOT RECIEVED AN OFFICIAL LETTER YET, AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THERE IS NOTHING TO SAY THEY WON'T TRY THIS AGAIN IN THE FUTURE.
BUT FOR THE TIME BEING MY LAND IS NOT AT RISK!
THIS WHOLE THING HAS BEEN SO STRESSFUL, AND WHEN I HEARD THIS IT FELT LIKE SUCH A WEIGHT LIFTED FROM MY SHOULDERS. THEIR PROPOSALS IMPACTED MY EVERY WAKING AND SLEEPING MOMENT. I STOOD TO LOSE EVERYTHING TO EDF AS DID MANY OTHERS!
THEY TOOK MY DRIVE AND MY PASSION AWAY, INSTEAD OF THE JOY OF BEING IN MY FIELDS, I FELT SAD BECAUSE I THOUGHT I WOULD LOSE IT ALL.
NOW FOR THE TIME BEING I CAN FEEL JOY AGAIN.
EDF STAY AWAY FROM US, NEVER DARKEN MY DOORS AGAIN!

Please read this and maybe think about not using Flea treatment as a preventative.
Our rivers are the life of world and we are killing in so many ways

As I tell you in class, dogs must be on lead around sheep.
All dogs however big or small are capable of chasing sheep.
If you're dog cannot be stopped from attacking or chasing sheep farmers are within their rights to shoot them.
Why would you risk it?
Personally I couldn't live with myself if my arrogance or stupidity caused the death of sheep or my dog.
And usually sheep worrying is caused by ignorance, arrogance and stupidity, don't be one of those people.
Keep your dog under proper control.
Stressed sheep panic and can abort or get hurt running into fences or water or killed by attacking dogs
