Training Tip Tuesday - Dogs love food! But unlike us they don’t care about quantity. When your training keep treats small. For example my dog Ben is 40kg and is very happy to work for treats as small as the one here. Smaller treats means faster training and faster learning

Meet Pip and her bunnies Lily and Benji. Pip was struggling with how to behave with them and unfortunately had scared them. The bunnies had hid themselves away for 10 days not coming out. Picture one with Benji was taken 8 hours after my session with her. Thanks to the great work from her owner Lily has also rejoined the party! If you or anyone you know needs any help with a dog get in contact 🐶 🐇 🐇

Dog Body Language - Watch Ben’s left leg closely. He is saying I don’t know what that stuff is and I’m very confused right now. If your dog is in a new situation always look out for signs of stress like this 🐶

Look at Snoop go!! A dogs brain is about 1/4 the size of a humans, but they have 50 times more (300 million vs 6 million) smelling receptors in their brain. They have to use up massive amounts of energy for their brain to process everything they smell. If you want a happy and tired dog after a walk, always try and set aside 10 minutes of the walk to leave them smell and explore. This will tire them out more than a 30 run!!
