I absolutely love this dog - Even as beagles go. She has SO much personality. Mabel definitely put me through my paces - she puts the Very in “Very High Energy”, she’s so confident, and really doesn’t like limits on her ability to explore - which meant she’d been doing herself some serious damage on a collar, and her owners some serious damage on a harness. Convincing her that a figure 8 was a great way of keeping everyone safe and letting her do what she wants…took a little convincing. But she’s SO worth it. This is why beagles are on my favourites list!

At risk of sounding like a paid promo post (it isn’t), Our affiliate partners over at are having a 25% off sale for international dog day! We get an awful lot of clients up at the farm who struggle with their dogs allergies and dietary health - and these guys are in our opinion one of the best starting points for a long term resolution, which is why we recommend them. They offer microbiome testing, pre/post biotics, and other supplements which we use for our sausage dog fleur, who’s had long term health issues that we wanted to get to the bottom of. They’re one of those companies that frankly speaks for themselves, but if you want to find out more about why we work with them, you can read about it in our Journal Online.

Underhill Farm from the top of the hill. My best friend came to visit from London a couple of weeks ago, and it was the first time I’ve had to show him around. I think this hike was worth the view!

I think some people believe that dog training is just cuddling puppies all day, and whilst that’s rarely the case - it was an extra special treat to have a little Luca up for some puppy development work. We don’t do “normal” - pretty much all of the dogs that we work with need a little extra support to help them succeed, and the one on one time does so much for being able to really get to grips with the issues. This cool dude had a bit of a slow start due to very poor care in his first 8 weeks on the planet - but he has an awesome family who are getting him back to healthy with great nutrition, and our support to raise him optimally alongside their other Swiss shepherd! Isn’t he stunning? White wolves all round.

Fleur and Charlie have been trying out the new dogs beds we’ve ordered for the centre! Any of you who have worked with us in the depths of winter may know that our current waterproof dog beds still get very wet - so I’m really excited about these elevated mesh beds to solve a problem and elevate experience. Absolutely loving them so far!

A study in sunshine. If my dogs all had superhero powers, the little sun worshipper herself has the ability to always find the warmest place in the room. I melt for this dog! By comparison, Théo who is aptly called ‘the dark knight’ on his KC register tends to stick to the shadows.

Summer is truly here. Always so grateful to have such beautiful scenery on my doorstep. Charlie clearly agrees. We get the dogs out later in the evening for exercise when it’s cool, and it always means the scent is strongest and their prey drive just that little bit more elevated. It reminds me of how much we don’t know or fail to notice about our dogs experience of the world.

Client spotlight: I was asked a couple of weeks ago what my favourite kind of case was to work with, and if there was ever a dog that could answer that question, it’s Freya. I will admit, her original brief isn’t pretty. Chronically fearful, ex breeding dog, abuse and neglect case. There’s a lot of ways in which I could describe her issues, but to put it simply, the initial challenge was getting her out of either hiding in her crate or a cupboard, and getting her walking from one room to the other without her wetting herself in fear. You’ll be glad to hear she’s doing awesome now - but here’s the truth. When a dog is this bad, as professionals we have to remember - we WILL fail, if that dog doesn’t have the most patient, most committed and most resilient owners. I Have spent maybe 10-12 hours working with Freya over the last year. Her owners spend more time than that working with her every single day, and they have done it for that same year. I can put my A game face on for the couple of hours I spend with her.I can be my best self, I can go to my calmest and most patient place and I can give the dog in front of me everything they need - for the two hours that I am there. Then I can get back in my car, cry out all of the sadness and anger and frustration I am feeling at how a dog could suffer that much - and then I can drive home.Her owners couldn’t do that - they stayed by her side, practiced the training activities at every single stage, for months to get her to the dog that she is today. She now toilets outside, she goes on walks with other dogs, she wags her tail and she plays with toys. Normal, beautiful dog things that mean SO much when you have a dog that started where she did.And why? Because her owners have sacrificed and dedicated everything to a dog that anyone else would have just put down because she was too much work. That level of strength is something that I cannot succeed without. I am humbled by it, I am so grateful for it.So Kirsty and Craig - here’s to you. For a strength of character that is superhuman - to not give up on a dog when everyone else did.I am so grateful for your trust and so proud of you all.

No, this isn’t Théo! This is Busby - who visited last week to work on his fear of water. His Labrador instruction manual got lost in the post, so he’s been scared of everything from puddles, paddling pools, to garden hoses and the waves at the beach. I think for a first session he did pretty great! Given that I forgot my Wellies and ended up wading around in my socks and shoes, it was a pretty good trade off to see this guy reconnecting with his instincts.

Olive would like to let you all know that July is officially cancelled. This weekend has been February 2.0. Layla is going through her integration with the ambassador dogs, and she’s been helping out with sessions over the last few weeks. It’s essential that our own dogs trust each other, and have a healthy, social pack to interact with in between the work they do with our clients. Layla is particularly sensitive, but Olive has an incredible calming influence!

To put into prospective how big this study is, each year over 3,000 golden retriever owners report data of behaviour, health and environmental factors to their vets in the hope that this can help identify nutritional, environmental, lifestyle and genetic markers for cancer and other genetic diseases in dogs.
