When your client loves the training so much they try to pack themselves and come home with you! 🤣 I wish, Toto!! You're too scrumdiddlyumptious to be true! 🥰

Great one-to-one session as a complement to the classes. We covered:
🐶 Crate training
🐶 NOT chasing the cats! 😻 using high value rewards
🐶 Started learning what "Leave" means
🐶 How much rest puppies need and how to create a balanced routine that fits with YOUR life 😊

If you want to progress your dog's training..

1️⃣ pick a fairly quiet outdoor spot with a few distractions in the near distance (we're near a footpath with walkers and cyclists going past and a cafe) 🚶‍♀️🚴

2️⃣ if you want an extra challenge, recruit a couple of friendly dogs to help (the 2 little dogs are the helpers 🥰) 🐕🐩

3️⃣ keep it short and keep it easy ⏰🙂

4️⃣ use to reward and motivate your dog 🏆🎖️

🪄❓QUICK QUIZ❓🪄:

⭐ What breeds of dog are in the video? (Clue: they're all crossbreeds)
⭐ What commands are we practicing?
⭐ What goes wrong? 🤭
⭐ How am I rewarding the dogs?

Have you taken your dog to the vet recently? Was it value for money? Let me know your opinion.

Vet bills: More pets being put down due to rising costs, BBC told - BBC News https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ce9xjmz70m5o

Owners are increasingly delaying treatment for sick pets to avoid spiralling vet bills, charities warn.

There's a lot of rubbish advice going round about what to do if your dog has . And it's annoying me because dogs' lives are at risk.

1️⃣ get some cool or cold water and get it on your dog FAST 🪣 (bucket, towels, paddling pool, etc). More dogs die from not being cooled quickly enough than from going into shock because the water was too cold. Why would you be worrying about the temperature of the water when your dog is dying?!?! As long as it's cooler than your dog's body temperature it will work. And use fans or fan your dog 🪭 to speed up the rate of convection (heat loss)

2️⃣ Get them to a vets FAST 🧑‍⚕️

Other things you can do that will help include:
- encouraging your dog to sip water (if they are conscious)
- moving your dog to shade
- call your vets and let them know you're on your way
- have your vets 24hr emergency number on your phone!
- wind your car windows down or put the AC on
- do NOT leave towels on your dog

Taking your dog for a cooling swim is an ideal activity in this heatwave 😊 But make sure you know your dog's limits and you know the waterway. Today, the Thames at Hampton is like a millpond but on other days, when it's flowing fast or it's tidal (downstream of Teddington lock), it can be deadly. Stay safe and have fun 😊🙏🥰

Help you dog stay cool (as a cucumber 🥒) by following these handy tips 😁
🌟 Stay out of the sun! Walk early or put it off til late evening🚶
🌟 Walk in the shade or grass as hot pavements can burn soft paws 🤕 (can't hold your hand on the pavement for 7 seconds? Your dog can't walk on it)
🌟 Go for a swim - a great way to exercise your dog when it's hot 🏊
🌟 Provide plenty of cold drinking water. Dogs lose a lot of heat through panting so their tongue needs to stay wet (for evaporation) 👅
🌟 Use cooling products such as cooling mats, vests and bandanas🧣Dogs also lose a lot of heat through their bodies and cooling products make this more efficient 😊
🌟 Don't make your dog run when it's hot as they may not be able to cool down afterwards and get heatstroke, which is very bad news for dogs 🥵
🌟 And NEVER leave your dog in a parked car, even with the windows cracked 🚗
STAY COOL 😎😎😎❤️
