Let's talk about puppies!

Why do puppies:-

🐾 Bite & nip?
🐾 Get the zoomies?
🐾 Toilet inside the house when they have just spent an hour outside?
🐾 Not want to go in their crate?
🐾 Follow you everywhere (yes everywhere!!)
🐾 Eat their own poo?
🐾 Hide when the lead comes out?
🐾 Bite and chew on the lead?
🐾 Steal anything they can get their paws on?
🐾 Growl?
🐾 Not listen to a word you say?
🐾 What happens to my puppy's teeth?

Barking is communication, dog's bark!

Noise is all around us, birds, aeroplanes, cars, children playing, screaming, shouting, crying, loud music, singing, dustbin lorries, motorbikes 🏍 and so much more!

But if a dog barks and dares to communicate with us, we must immediately put a stop to it.

Why?

Because it is considered a nuisance to society 🤔

Do we stop children communicating? No, we don't!
Do we stop traffic? No, we don't!
Do we stop children playing, getting excited, having fun? No, we don't!
Do we stop our dogs telling us what they want 🤔 Yes we do!

Barking is communication, dog's bark!

Constant, excessive barking however needs addressing - your dog is expressing their needs, are we listening to them?

Once you start listening, you will start to learn what they want and then you can effectively support them 🐾🐾

To all parents of puppies and dogs in need of support ……

💕 You're doing an amazing job. 💕

From puppy nipping, biting, scratching, chewing, sleeping issues and puddles on the floor to zoomies and the witching hour and more. Reactivity, jumping up, pulling on the lead, running off or pinching shoes or dangerous items, I know how it feels 🤷‍♀️

⭐Yes, there will be difficult days.

⭐Yes, you may want to crawl into a hole and not come back out.

⭐Yes, your anxiety may be through the roof.

⭐Yes, you may be at the end of your tether and wondering why you got a puppy or a dog in the first place.

But you're doing your very best you can for your puppy or dog and that's what truly counts.

From one previous stressed out puppy/dog parent - I see you.

💕 How did I get so lucky to be able to work with clients like these! 💕

I have received the best message from Gabby about how happy she is with puppy’s training sessions.

“We had the pleasure of working with Julie from MyLuka Dog Training Solutions to train our puppy, Koda.

Julie tailored the training to Koda's specific needs and our goals, making each session highly effective and enjoyable. Her extensive knowledge in dog training shone through as she adeptly adjusted the techniques to suit Koda’s individual needs. Her game-based training methods were really easy to follow and a lot of fun, keeping Koda engaged and eager to learn!

Each week, she provided us with valuable tailored training resources that were incredibly helpful for reinforcing the lessons at home. Julie's ability to adapt and personalise the training experience made a significant difference in Koda's progress.

We highly recommend Julie to anyone looking for a skilled and personable dog trainer. Should we need further assistance, we would not hesitate to call Julie again. She truly excels at what she does.

Thank you so much Julie!”

We love hearing about how we’ve helped our clients. So if you’ve worked with us before, please do take a moment to leave us a review.

They really do mean the world to us! 🥰

Tell me… If you could change one thing about your dog what would it be?

For Luka, he has a habit of snoring very loudly. So loud we cannot hear the tv 😆

I know it’s not training related but it is really annoying!

Not to start a heated debate here, but what's your favourite breed?

You can probably guess mine. 😉

🙌 If you really want to train the perfect recall, here's my one hot tip. 🙌

Become sexier than the squirrel!!!

Play games that make your dog want to return to you, get creative and exciting and your dog will return to you. We have many tools that can get that perfect recall but only you can do it when it matters most!

When my client Charlotte and her dog Crisp came to me, they'd been struggling with recall for months. Crisp would only come back to her around 20% of the time. Once she managed to get Crisp back to her she would put him straight back onto his lead, this meant that he was going home. No wonder Crisp didn’t want to come back!

After changing things up and playing lots of fun games with Crisp we managed to bring some fun back into coming back and we didn’t put the lead on every time he came back either as this was a sign that he was going home. With this change their recall success rate is now 80%. And I have no doubt with continued practice it'll be 100% in no time. 💖

Moral of the story, you need to be way more exciting than the environment or your dog just won’t even know you are with them!

What's your dog's recall success rate? Let me know in the comments. 🤔

🐾 When you sign up for any of my five week courses, this is what you get... 🐾

✨ Support. This is really important to me. When you have a struggle with your dog, you may feel isolated and alone. I am here to listen, talk and work through those struggles with you, you are not alone.

✨ Fun! I want to change the way you feel about your dog. After a lot of struggles there may be negativity in your relationship - together we will build the foundations to create a stronger bond, we can then work on your training struggles.

✨ Make Plans. Together we make a plan. Have you heard the saying “there is light at the end of the tunnel”? This is what I want for every student that comes to me for training. Slowly but surely you will see that light!

✨ Wins. You will see your dog transform in front of you and each week this will become so much easier. Your dog has the ability to show you what they are capable of, we just have to give them the chance to shine!

✨ No Pressure. That’s right, there is no pressure, either for you or your dog, I want you to do this because you want to - that is the reason you are looking for a dog trainer.

But not only that, all of my training programmes help you to leave behind all that stress and worry you're feeling right now, and transform your dog into the loveable family dog you know they're meant to be.

Because that right there, is priceless. 💖

🦸‍♀️ I like to think we all have a super power. 🦸‍♀️

People often tell me mine is calmness because I'm great at bringing the energy down, with dogs especially. I hear “my dog is not normally this calm when a new person comes in” a lot!

Dogs find themselves in situations they are not happy with all of the time, we don’t always know this as we think they should just fit into our lives. Most dogs are happiest when they are curled up with you, no distractions, visitors or attention from the outside world.

When I enter your home I don’t make a fuss, I talk with you until your dog is ready to interact with me and then we work together.

Dog training is complex and it’s not just showing you how playing games can train your dog. I am observing your dog all the time I am with you, I want to know how they are feeling, I try to get into their heads and work out what they want and how they are trying to tell you what they want.

When we are sat talking I am working - observing, listening, questioning, digging deeper into your struggles to find a solution. Answers are often in the small details that you give me.

My calmness gets me the answers I need to help you with your struggles and I am grateful for this gift ❤️

Helping people and their pets is my life's work. And I'm truly honoured I get to call this my job.

So how about you? What's your super power?

💕 I’ve had a few people hopping into my inbox this week asking about our five week Puppy Foundation Programme. 💕

A few common questions cropped up, so I thought I’d answer them here in case you’ve been wondering the same.

🐾 When can we start training with our puppy?

As soon as you bring them home. As a one to one trainer, I come to you to show you how you can help your puppy settle in, give you advice on toileting, crate training and prepare you for when you are able to take your puppy on their first walks.

🐾 Do I need to train my puppy between sessions?

Yes but keep training sessions very short, no longer than three minutes, three times a day to start with. Puppies get tired very quickly and need a lot of rest so don’t overdo the training.

🐾 What do I need for our training sessions?

Your puppy’s bed, a portion of their daily food allowance and access to water and I always recommend a pair of gardening gloves 😂

If you’ve been thinking about booking in with me, I hope that clears up a few questions you may have had.

And of course, I’m always here to chat if you need any further information.

If you’re ready to get started and book in, you can send me a message and I will give you a ring.

I hope to welcome you into the MyLuka Dog Training Solutions family soon! 🥰

A few puppy questions I get asked frequently that I wanted to share with you are:-

🐾 When will my puppy stop biting me?

If you have a puppy that nips and bites you, it is usually because they are teething and this should stop around 8 months old. Some puppies nip and bite because they are over-excited, over-stimulated or frustrated. Chewing can become an issue when your puppy reaches adolescence but this is for another time!

🐾 How often should I take my puppy out to the toilet?

After a sleep, nap or rest. When they have had a playtime, training session, food or drink. First thing in the morning and before bedtime. If you notice them sniffing and circling then I would take them outside.

🐾 Should we introduce crate training to our puppy?

Personally I would but this is a choice for you to make and there is no right or wrong answer. If your puppy has to spend some time at the vets or at the groomers they may need to be crated so even if you don't use a crate at home it may be a good idea to get them used to one. Crates are also a safe way for your puppy to travel in the car and can be used when you go on holiday.

Hope this helps, if you do have any other questions please feel free to send me a message and we can talk about booking in some puppy foundation training sessions.

The most challenging time we had as dog parents was definitely when Luka was a puppy.

As many of you know, Luka was an absolute nightmare when he was a puppy. Especially with the nipping and biting, not sleeping, separation issues, ok you get it!

Even though he was exhausting at that stage, we did manage to find a way through and now at seven years old thankfully he is much easier to live with!

So although we had a tough time when Luka was a puppy, there will always be better times around the corner.

Hold onto that the next time you have a challenging time with your own puppy. Never give up on helping them, because they’ll never give up on you. 💖

😬 Does your puppy go crazy at a certain time of the day? 😮

Often called the zoomies or witching hour 😬 it's actually not uncommon.

In fact, 8 out of 10 puppies have the zoomies and it’s usually in the evening when you want to settle down!

But there are simple steps you can take right now that will help your puppy

And here they are:
🐾 Introduce calm activities such as scatter feeding around the time that they would normally go crazy.
🐾 Walk them round the garden (or living room) and reward them for being calm.
🐾Give them a lickimat, snuffle mat, Kong or a chew to occupy them instead.
🐾Have a short training session to tire their brain.
🐾Put them in their quiet, safe place for a sleep before any zoomies happen.
🐾Engage them in a calm play session.
🐾Take them for a short walk.

Try these tips and let me know how you get on.

And if you're looking for professional support for your puppy, I have the solution for that.

🤚 Hands up if you struggle with barking? 🤚

If that's you, I'm here today to share my 5 top tips to help you reduce your dog’s barking.

1. Use distraction techniques, games are great for distractions.

2. Calmness is key! Introduce more down time for your dog, sleep or rest.

3. Give your dog a job to do “Find it!” “paws on” or scatter feed.

4. Manage your dog’s environment to avoid the triggers such as stair gates to stop your dog charging at the front door, taking them for walks in a quiet area away from other dogs or distractions until you have trained for the situation.

5.Train for the situation not in the situation. Prepare your dog so that they know how to behave when faced with their trigger.

These tips are always my go-to whenever my customers want to solve barking issues.

In fact, when Leanne a recent customer implemented these 5 simple tips, she saw an improvement in just two weeks.

If you’re ready to reduce your dog’s barking, then contact me to book your free 20 minute discovery call.

Let's get you and your dog on the right track! 🙌

I have been asked a few times if I run training classes, the answer is no I don't and there are several reasons why

🐾 I have menieres disease and this affects my ability to hear clearly in noisy environments. (The reason why I stopped working in a school)

🐾 I enjoy working on a one to one basis where I can give you my full attention.

🐾 Each dog or puppy is unique and responds differently so I favour a tailored approach for your specific needs.

🐾 I travel to you so you can train your dog or puppy in the comfort of your own home with a plan just for you.

🐾 Classes are not usually for socialising as most people assume but for training and can cause anxiety to both dog and their human if it is too noisy, busy or chaotic.

Please note I am not against training classes, I just choose to work on a one to one basis.
