Just a minute please....

🌳We've all got busy lives, I totally get it. But something I think is really important, is giving our dogs a bit more time to process their surroundings.

🧠 Dogs live in the moment, and I think as humans we sometimes forget that. So when they go to a new place, or see something interesting, or potentially worrying, they need time to process it. They will want to watch it, to listen, to gather scent information about their environment.

✋️It is really important to stop, and just give them a minute to look, listen, sniff. Often, once they have processed the 'thing', they are ready to move on. But not enough processing time can increase stress levels, and this can lead to barking, jumping up, refusal to move, and an inability to listen to you.

🥰 Try it out on your walks and let me know how it goes

Buddy came for his first Agility 1-1 session recently. His human was looking for something fun for him to do to exercise his body and brain. And quite frankly, he's a natural!

We worked on forward focus, start line stays, and introduced the tunnel (which I think will become his favourite 😊)

Well done Buddy 👏

My lovely friend, and all round wonderful human being bought me a hat with Bilbo on it recently! I blooming love it! I think the resemblance is uncanny, and will cheer up the cold Winter months ahead! Thanks so much Ruth 🥰

The first picture is the one I was aiming for, the second picture is real life so I've included it for your entertainment 😆🐾🤦‍♀️

Anyone else have clothing with their dog on it??

Do you remember lovely Buster? I have some fabulous news to report...

🏠He's been adopted and is now settling in to his new home.

❤️ I'm absolutely over the moon, he's waited such a long time and has come on amazingly well.

Be happy Buster 🐾

Meet lovely Lola...isn't she stunning?!

Lola came to puppy classes when she was younger (she was a bit smaller then). She's now entering Adolescence so we've had a couple of 1-1 home sessions to help her manage her frustration when she sees other dogs (she wants to say hello to alllll of them!)

She's going to be joining us on some training walks in the future, where she - and her human - can practice the skills around other dogs in different places.

She's so fabulous 🥰
