💒 WE HAD A WEDDING 💒

Pebbles and Teddy were lovers at first sight. Both dogs have been known to be reactive around others and joined daycare to help them with their socialising skills. They've settled into well with the pack however paired off and are as thick as thieves.

They announced their engagement a few weeks back and now, happily married we can present to you

This guy hasn't made an appearance for AGES! My little Scampi. He was the whole design idea from my old logo and very much felt the centre of The Woof Hub when I first launched.

He's still loving life and very much the centre of my world even if his face isn't part of the new Total Dog branding. Here is is in the Peaks on Sunday fashioning his Twiggy Tags harness. Only the best for the boy!

Love you Scammy!

You asked and we listened. We're pleased to announce that we now have more socialising classes on offer. These filled up and sold out straight away so I've planned and added more dates and times along with a different location!

We will now also meet at 10:30am on Saturdays on Kilton Golf a course after the 9:00am Fulmar Way meeting. This means you can chose which location you prefer and can swap between the two to really master your training around socialising, impulse control and focus. We can also master long lines and some off lead and recall too.

Please only book one session for your dog. Both would be too much.

Its feedback like this that really makes my earlier post even more meaningful. Adele and her little dog Luna attended the first socialising class with me on Saturday. Luna was nervous and barked at other dogs however with time, patience and understanding of what made Luna nervous, Adele has felt confident to go out and practice what she learnt with me.

These socialising classes are £10 to join and are very controlled throughout.

If you want to attend one of our socialising classes then follow the link below to simply book online.

I LOVE MY JOB. I never thought I could come back to say that.

Really personal post coming on. I have felt so lost this year. Since Togos left and I was faced with a decision on what to do for the best, it got hard. We'd built up a retail base here and I really didn't want to let anyone down. So on I fired and launched Pipers Pantry. I loved what we'd created and the space did look amazing. But it completely took me away from everything that gave me drive to wake up and come to work every day; you and your dogs.

I put on half a stone. I wasn't exercising (and this has been a contributing factor to me ending up with a bulging disc, sciatica and now neuropathy in my right foot). I was miserable and hated coming to work. I am wholeheartedly passionate about working with others and thrive at my best in a team, a team I've created. I no longer felt like I wanted to do anything other than the bare minimum and I wanted to walk away from it all.

So, I sat in tears with my super special friend and said this is it. From the 19th of July I will close the doors on The Woof Hub. I can't do this anymore. She looked at me open mouthed and said 'WHAT? You cant.' To which I replied 'why can't I?.' But the answer laid right here... because of the dogs I work with and the people I've helped. Her husband looked at me and said 'what is it you don't like? Think about that and change that'. So I did. I hated the shop. And I HATED the brand. I'd fallen completely out of love with all of it.

Total Dog came into vision and all of a sudden I felt some positivity return. I felt like I had a focus again. And my passion came back for everything I love.

I advertised new classes, new training and focused on everything that we had done for the last 3 years and did well; Daycare, Training & Grooming. I LOVE our new brand and I love the the focus I have been able to regain.

It's amazing to say I love my job again. You all keep me going and I am so thankful for that.

Some of you may remember that a few years ago I began my journey to become a Reiki Healing Practitioner which would then lead me onto my Animal Reiki Healing Accreditation offering a unique balance of training through holistic therapies and my hands on positive reinforcement training.

I qualified in Animal Crystal Healing and currently hold that diploma.

I have qualified in Reiki I but as a distance learner as this was all that was available at the time.

However, this route never felt right for me and therefore I am pleased to announce that I have re-registered onto my Reiki I, as in person training in October down in Oxfordshire. I have done a vast amount of research and know that the only route for me is to become accredited through UK Reiki Federation.

I am super excited to work with Rebecca Nichol - Reflexology, Reiki, Indian Head Massage in Banbury and look forward to 'properly' starting my journey into Animal Reiki.

This wasn't how today was supposed to plan out! For those of you who witnessed me laying on the floor in the pub this morning, thanks for stepping over me 😂

I've been suffering from Sciatica for the last week but yesterday it took a turn for the worst and I've now got pins and needles right up through my groin and down to my toes so after chatting to 111 it was a trip up to hospital to find out what is causing so much pain and weakness.

Fingers crossed I have some answers later on today. I hate hospitals 🥺

Thanks to those of you who came to attend the event today at Lockkeeper Worksop we loved seeing so many of you there along with your floofs. I'm just sorry I had to bail early.

TD-HQ HAS UNIFORM! OMG I've never had a uniform. In the 3 years of running The Woof Hub I never invested in uniform. I don't know why. Still don't. But today... thanks to the AMAZING L&O Stitch we now have a uniform.

I am attending my first event on Sunday as Total Dog at Lockkeeper Worksop with my incredible friend and side kick, Sue. She has really shown up for me this year and I'm so thankful. Without her talking to me for hours and hours and endlessly supporting me while I've cried over this journey, I think wholeheartedly I'd have walked away for good.

See you all on Sunday 😃

Starting on Saturday 24th August for 4 weeks we're hosting a puppy workshop! From socialising, growth & development, appropriate play and lead work... we're covering it all!

EEEEEEEK! First up we're so excited to announce that we'll be back running our group socialising classes. These will be done by myself, Sarah.

These are designed for anyone wanting help with socialising their dog. Gaining attention, focus, lead work and interacting with others as well as their environment. Suitable for everyone.

There will be a maximum of 6 dogs per group. You can book online via this link and attend as many classes as you'd like.

Reactive dog? No problem. Just let me know before hand and I will make contact and issue you a walki-talki for the session so you can gain threshold and get the most from your time with me.

I will introduce other dogs (my own) when the time is right and will ensure correct and positive socialising at all times. We will be using reward based systems including treats, play, fuss and clickers.

Just £10 per dog meeting on Fulmar Way in Gateford.

I 'think' that's Facebook all swapped over. The name request may take a couple of days so I'll just sit on that and wait.

BUT everything else should all be changed now. Our updated new website can be visited here - www.mytotaldog.co.uk go have a nosy and see what you think!

Were on Insta - mytotaldog
Were on TikTok - mytotaldog

Socials will see a complete overhaul and we'll be bringing lots of new content online. Watch this space!

Going into this week I will be promoting and scheduling some new workshops and training sessions. I will also be putting the feelers out about things in the pipeline that I've for up my sleeve.

It's been a real tough year so far. The toughest I've had in business. I just hope that now, I'm back on the right path and can turn the next half of 2024 on its head. It's been very difficult to see the chapter of The Woof Hub come to an end but it feels right and feels like things can be more focused into the future. I won't be the first to rebrand and I won't be the last. I am so excited for what's in store and really hope you guys will be too.

Keep sharing, keep engaging and keep following us! I do a happy dance every time new people join my little community. Every little reaction makes me know that this has all be worthwhile.

Thanks for everything. I love you all loads.

AND JUST LIKE THAT... tomorrow will see the rebranding of The Woof Hub as we've known it for the last 3 years.

It's been one hell of a journey but this feels right and gives the business a streamline brand across all of our services. Total Dog will bring with it a new, streamline branding across all of our services.

We'll be seeing new and exciting things come to daycare along with new holistic training methods, classes and workshops. We are working in partnership with other professionals too which will bring about an entire new look to go with our name too!

I can't thank you enough for your continued support. I know 2024 hasn't started the best for me but with still half a year left to go it's like to flip 2024 on its arse 💪

Daycare @ The Dog Lodge. This week saw our amazing Sue return to work after a foot operation 12 weeks ago. She has missed all the babies here, and from the welcome she got we think they had all missed her too! It's great to see her return to the team. It's always very quiet without her 😂.

Here we've got little Hugo showing everyone how a high five is done ❤️. To think Sue had never worked with dogs until she joined us here as Sarah's HR Support but she's come so far with learning everything she can about our dogs and their behaviour. She's so keen to learn and we love that.
