K9 Adventures

Just like our kids heading back to school, our pups had their own little adventure today!

They “sniffed” their way through learning stations, explored new 'subjects,' and even took some time for “reading” and playtime.

Each of them brought their own personality to the classroom – whether it was discovering a new favorite toy, or just taking in all the fun around them.

Seeing them enjoy the day with their classmates and those sweet wagging tails is what makes it all worth it. Treats and sniff sessions? That’s an A+ kind of day! 😄

Elvis deserves a gold medal for all that nosework!! 🥇

NEWS: Elvis has left the building

Our Explosives Detection Dog PD Elvis has ‘left the building’ to demonstrate ‘he’s more than just a hound dog’; starting his journey to Paris to support the 2024 Olympics!

PD Elvis, a four-year-old Cocker Spaniel, is trained in detecting explosive devices and equipment.

Today (22 July) he has left South Yorkshire with his handler, a duo who have worked together for three years and will support the operation in Paris until Friday 2 August.

The Olympics will see people from across the world come together to watch the best athletes compete.

PD Elvis will carry out patrols prior to the events starting and during to ensure no concealed items, or those intent on causing harm will enter the event.

His nose, skills and commitment are incredible. We hope he and his handler have a great time while in Paris.

A great article from Jo Hinds on appropriate play.

Any dog interaction needs close supervision and management, and with multiple dogs it's even more important to ensure happy and settled groups.

Our staff are all trained through the Dog Gurus Knowing Dogs and Canine Carer Programmes, which are specifically for pet professionals.

When it comes to dog play, understanding the dynamics is crucial. Always observe body language, encourage balanced chase games, and intervene if play becomes aggressive or overwhelming. Watch for s…

*I can't find the original owner of the below but it's just so true for today's dogs, they are all so smart in different ways and so oftern they don't get to 'be a dog' enough. Find them a job they like, for their own mental health!

"I'm a Malinois.
Over skilled among dogs, I excel in all disciplines and I'm always ready to work: I NEED to work.
But nowadays I get asked to chill on the couch all day everyday.
-I am an Akita Inu.
My ancestors were selected for fighting bears.
Today I get asked to be tolerant and I get scolded for my reactivity when another approaches me.
-I am a Beagle.
When I chase my prey, I raise my voice so the hunters could follow.
Today they put an electric collar on me to shut up, and you make me come back to you - no running - with a snap of your fingers.
-I am a Yorkshire Terrier.
I was a terrifying rat hunter in English mines.
Today they think I can't use my legs and they always hold me in their arms.
-I'm a Labrador Retriever.
My vision of happiness is a dive into a pond to bring back the duck he shot to my master.
Today you forget I'm a walking, running, swimming dog; as a result I'm fat, made to stay indoors, and to babysit.
-I am a Jack Russell.
I can take on a fox, a mean badger, and a rat bigger than me in his den.
Today I get scolded for my character and high energy, and forced to turn into a quiet living room dog.
-I am a Siberian Husky.
Experienced the great, wide open spaces of Northern Europe, where I could drag sleds for long distances at impressive speeds.
Today I only have the walls of the house or small garden as a horizon, and the holes I dig in the ground just to release energy and frustration, trying to stay sane.
-I am a border collie
I was made to work hours a day in partnership with my master, and I am an unmistakable artist of working with the herd.
Today they are mad at me because, for lack of sheep, I try to check bikes, cars, children in the house and everything in motion.
I am ...
I am a 21st century dog.
I'm pretty, I'm alert, I'm obedient, I stay in a bag...but I'm also an individual who, from centuries of training, needs to express my instincts, and I am *not* suited for the sedentary life you'd want me to lead.
Spending eight hours a day alone in the house or in the garden - with no work and no one to play or run with, seeing you for a short time in the evening when you get home, and only getting a small toilet walk will make me deeply unhappy.
I'll express it by barking all day, turning your yard into a minefield, doing my needs indoors, being unmanageable the rare times I'll find myself outside, and sometimes spending my days sunk, sad, lonely, and depressed, on my pillow.
You may think that I should be happy to be able to enjoy all this comfort while you go to work, but actually I’ll be exhausted and frustrated, because this is absolutely NOT what I'm meant to do, or what I need to be doing.
If you love me, if you've always dreamed of me, if my beautiful blue eyes or my athletic look make you want me, but you can't give me a real dog's life, a life that's really worth living according to my breed, and if you can't offer me the job that my genes are asking, DO NOT buy or adopt me!
If you like the way I look but aren't willing to accept my temperament, gifts, and traits derived from long genetic selection, and you think you can change them with only your good will, then DO NOT BUY OR ADOPT ME.
I’m a dog from the 21st century, yes, but deep inside me, the one who fought, the one who hunted, the one who pulled sleds, the one who guided and protected a herd still lives within.
So think **very** carefully before you choose your dog. And think about getting two, rather than one, so I won't be so very lonely waiting for you all day. Eight or ten hours is just a workday to you, but it's an eternity for me to be alone."
