One thing that always makes me happy: When my clients not only SMASH their homework but build on it too. I'm a very proud coach. 🥰

ALSO HOW FU***NG CUTE IS SHE?!

Story time!

If there is one thing that has stood out to me the most over these past 6 years dealing with 100s of dogs... their diet matters.

And much like us, the whole notion of "You are what you eat" absolutely applies to our dogs too.

I've literally had owners report their dogs changing overnight after a diet change and, well, go figure right? Especially if said food is causing digestive or health issues.

What food are you feeding your dog?

(PS Did you know I'm also a certified nutritionist and offer nutrition consultations? Get in touch if you want my help with finding the right food for your dog!)

It's a HARD pass from me tyvm. 🫡

Some of the stuff I've heard from client's that their vet has advised (or not in some cases) is absolutely absurd.

Just because someone is a vet does NOT make their word gospel... especially if it comes to nutrition or recognising behavioural signs of pain.

And btw this is not me trying to s**t on vets. Maybe just a little nugget though for the ones that deserve it 💩😂

You had level 2, and as promised, here is level 3!

Something I observe when teaching a dog patience is that they actually enjoy it and Monty is no different. Monty absolutely loves the training process (as you can see by his tail*) and we're teaching him vital skills. Win win to me.

But it makes sense from a neuroscience point of view too. Imagine you want something really bad right and you're close to getting it, that's where the excitement is, and then typically once you get it, the excitement of getting it dims. That's dopamine for ya.

And teaching your dog patience and frustration tolerance essentially means you teach them how to handle these dopamine spikes.

Cool, huh?!

*Friendly reminder tho: A WAGGING TAIL DOESN'T ALWAYS EQUAL A HAPPY DOG. But in this case it does 🫡

Having fun with your dog AND building their confidence? Yes please!

Recently got contacted by a company about a potential collab and of course I would never push anything without trying it first... luckily I have a wonderful assistant on hand to help me with just that. 🫡

Oh, and of course I also have a choice of dogs (and clients) at my disposal to try them out too!

To any current clients: Please let me know during a sesh or comment if you wanna try a box!

Dogs need to learn how to deal with icky feelings and frustration is no different.

Essentially, if you don't teach your dog how to navigate these feelings and build resilience then your dog will just be a dysregulated snowflake and no one likes those.

Dog or human.

Arming your dog with the skills to know how to regulate and tolerate icky emotions is CRUCIAL to having a confident and resilient dog.

There's a lot of crap out there saying your dog should never get frustrated and you should avoid any situations that put them under stress, but I wholeheartedly disagree....

Because life ain't bloody like that.

Instead, I believe in worming less than ideal emotions like frustration and patience (and a little bit of anxiety/fear) into training games that teach your dog how to handle these emotions when they arise.

The trick is knowing how to do it right... and that's where working with a professional comes in. You wanna work with me? Then feel free to get in touch.

Got absolutely sucker punched with emotion after seeing Honey tonight.

I will be making a proper post about it soon but I just wanted to share this moment with y'all in real time. I know a lot of you love her too. 💛

Me, My Dogs and My Philosophy

With a Master's Degree in Animal Behaviour Management and just under 5 years of practical experience; I combine my love of teaching with my love of dogs to help families and their dogs overcome a wide variety of dog behavioural/training problems. I think the term “body language-based" trainer is the best way to succinctly describe my philosophy and how I work with dogs and my clients. I also believe in using the LIMA (Less Intrusive, Minimally Aversive) approach. Essentially, this means I believe in building positive relationships through mutual understanding to raise well behaved dogs that can exist successfully with both their families and within society. I have two dogs: Honey, my working golden retriever who I eventually plan to compete with in gun dog working tests, and Saber, our previously dog and lead reactive rescue (we fixed her!) Accreditation: I am a provisional member of the Association for Pet Behaviour Counsellors (APBC) and a supporting member of the International Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants (IAABC). I have also achieved pre-certification status with the Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour (ASAB) to hopefully achieve full Certified Clinical Animal Behaviourist (CCAB) status in the future.
