Say hello to the marvellous Milly 🥰
On Tuesday we had a session to look at how to get her brain working with more fun things to do together as well as looking at loose lead walking. As spaniel owners may know, their brains are going 100mph a lot of the time which means walks can be incredibly challenging. We have a new structure in place to take it back to basics a little to help keep the attention on mum rather than wanting to pull off and smell EVERYTHING. Mum and dad are happy to put the work in and we are hoping to catch back up with them on a few weeks for another season to keep them going. Well done Milly and pawrents 👏🐶🐾

Yesterday I met the beautiful Bailey, he is a 15 week old Bernese Mountain Dog 🥹🖤🤍🧡
On this session we went through some of his issues with biting, recall, how to start leaving him in the house for small amounts of time and loose lead walking. We had a good chat about all of these different areas they would like to work on (while I got lots of cuddles from Bailey) and we are looking at working on a schedule to keep up with his training, that means you won’t be seeing the last of this little man (and I’m very happy about that 😍)
Next week we are going to start working on his recall out and about in the real world 🌍
I can not wait to see you again soon 🥰😍🐾

PS… have I ever mentioned that I have the best job in the WORLD!!😍😍😍🐾🐾🐾
