NEW TRAINING CLASSES STARTING Friday March 21stat 7 pm

Suitable for puppies under 6 months. All breeds and types welcome. We will cover the basic skills that will make life with your dog easier, such as sit, walking on a loose lead, settle, and several attention exercises. In addition to that, the pups will get a chance to socialise with each other in a safe and supervised environment.

100% this. Dogs especially pups need sleep

Tuesday Tips:

An effective training plan takes into account the dog's behavior, daily routine and physical needs as well as the skills we want to teach and the steps to do so. This is why I recommend starting a training program with an initial consultation. In the consultation I evaluate if a dog is getting sufficient exercise, mental stimulation and (just as important) sleep! If your dog (especially young dog) is bouncing off the walls despite having already had a good walk, they may not need MORE exercise, but instead a nap! Just like an overtired toddler, an overtired dog may become more impulsive (think jumping, biting, zoomies).

Here's why your dog hates certain things.

Your dog doesn't like black dogs because they see things on a blue-yellow colour spectrum. Black dogs, in general, just look like eyes and teeth.

Your dog doesn't like German Shepherds/Huskies/Malamutes because their ears are pointed upright, and that can be a sign of confrontation. Most of these dogs also have darker faces.

Your dog doesn't like French Bulldogs because their bulbous eyes can showcase they're anxious when they're not, their ears are pointed upright and their breathing can sound like growling. They also don't have tails that cover their a**l glands, so they're constantly spreading social scents that dogs can interpret as rude (think of the really loud aggressive guy at the pub).

Your dog doesn't like men because men tend to be taller, wear darker clothing and dogs are less likely to have interactions with men as a puppy than they are women or children. They will also have specific associations with their scent too.

Your dog doesn't like children because they are unpredictable - one minute they are still, the next minute they are not! Their movements are jerky, difficult to follow and can be scary. Plus they make a lot of noise!

Hope you found this helpful!

UPDATE: Toby has been found safe and well and is back at home

This is Toby, a much-loved family pet who has gone missing from home.
He took off from the Muckross Road area of Killarney and, despite searches, there has been no sign of him.
A mixed breed with fox-like colouring, Toby is quite deaf but he is very friendly and approachable.
If there are any sightings please contact 086-0652416.

I’d like to wish The Doggy Range a Happy first birthday. A year ago today Diane opened the doors to her doggy daycare and has been flying ever since. Here’s to many more years of success 🥂
