Please share far and wide, some people are totally unaware of the dangers of taking dogs out in the heat and cold

25/06/2024

Not only this weekend. It's sad watching dogs struggle on their walks because of the heat - and idiotic owners, all wearing decent footwear.

23/06/2024

All 3 dogs used to be lead reactive and couldn't interact safely with other dogs, but, after a few months taking things slowly and only using force free training methods they are happy in the company of other dogs. Their owners are now more relaxed and their enjoying walks with their stunning dogs.

When a toy Chihuahua meets a younger Great Dane puppy at classes. It's been another excellent course. Lots of fun with pups and their owners and plenty of new life long skills learned.

18/06/2024

So happy for all 3 students who did their work experience at Pawsitive Impact Dog Training. They have all got the places they applied for in their preferred areas of study next year. I'm so pleased for you all 😁🐕🐾

My last ' office ' of the day. What a lovely way to end the working day

06/05/2024

There are many activities / sports you and your dog can do together. At Fun Club, we had a go at Rally Obedience. Lots of fun not quite so much obedience - the dogs were enjoying themselves too much and as for the owners ....... I love them all, we do have a laugh.

06/05/2024

Tess was amazing at classes. She's a rehome who was very nervous when I first met her a couple of months ago. She's now happily playing with other dogs - even came along to fun club and was amazing.

06/05/2024

Just one of the beautiful places I got to work in this week.

28/04/2024

Just a few weeks ago, these photos were only a dream for the Staffies owner. He had a bad start to life before being rescued by a lovely lady. Reactive to other dogs, walking him was a nightmare but taking things very slowly, teaching him to focus and slow introductions to other dogs resulted in these pictures taken yesterday. Still a lot of work to be done but this was a huge break through.

If you have a dog that needs to learn how to walk politely and needs to improve their recall, why not join us on our next Lead and Recall course commencing May 25th, 10:30-11:30 at Winwick Leisure Centre. The course is 5 weeks in duration and costs £75.

I don’t think that word mince what you think it mince. 🤨

08/12/2023

5 months ago I was asked if I could help a family out by fostering their dog . They'd been made homeless through no fault of their own. It was a no brainer. On the 2nd August Bonnie came to live with us. She was the sweetest, craziest, most affectionate pup I'd ever met. Today, I had the privilege of returning her to her family at their new home. Reuniting her with them and watching the reaction of Bonnie seeing her family again actually made my eyes leak. Who needs Christmas presents when you get to witness such precious moments.

There are lots of dogs out there requiring foster and permanent homes. Rather than fill the pockets of unscrupulous 'greeders', why not give fostering / adoption some consideration. It's so rewarding

Excellent advice from the vets and staff at My Pets Vet, Lowton. Their monthly email, is always an informative read.

This Bonfire night, are you prepared to help your pet feel safe?

The best way to prepare yourself (and your pets) for the fireworks is to plan ahead. Here are some suggestions to help you through it:

Make sure your pet’s microchip details are updated in case your pet gets lost.

Walk your dog early and consider keeping your cats inside for the day to make sure they are home before the fireworks start to pop.

Create a special place where your pets can escape. Providing comfort in a time like this can really help your pets feel calmer.

Keep your windows closed with the curtains drawn, and turn on the TV or radio to try to mask the noise as much as possible.

🩺 If you have any concerns, talk to us - we’d be happy to discuss a solution for your four-legged friends.
