Pippi was very nervous when we met the first time, not so this week. Her family has worked a lot on focus and close proxity exercises, and it is starting to, slowly but surely, pay off. Can't wait to see what changes the next two weeks will bring.

Bailey managed his challenge for this week's session. He stayed focussed on his mam, in a middle, while I drove up. Not just that, he didn't bark when I got out of the car and walked up to him!!! Amazing change in just one week.

Willow posed after her one to one session. She's come on a long way. She no longer jumps on her gran and is keen to go into and stay in her crate when it's needed (it's a good place to be). In short, best girl 🩷

Lucy and Molly 🥰
What a pleasure to work with these two. They are taking great steps toward their mam's training goal for them, which is calm behaviour in the house, not dashing out when the door is 5, most importantly, walking calmly on lead.

Baileys transformation has been remarkable. His jumping and overall hyper behaviour were so extreme that his family was at their wits end. They were, however, determined to have him become the house dog and family member then wanted him to be, and they have done a great job towards achieving their goal. Incredible work 👏

Bailey started his one to one programme. We will be working on building confidence around people and reactions to other dogs while out and about.

16/08/2024

It's incredibly rewarding when clients send in videos showing how training pays off in real life. Walking Tody used to be incredibly difficult. He used to react to everything, birds, cars, people, and dogs while out walking. This video shows how much he's improved since he started he's one to one training programme. Well done, Toby 👏

The cuteness 😍. Bonnie finished her one to one training programme. She had improved in every area we worked on, especially her impulse control around food and humans. She jumped at and for both 😀

This little lad has done his humans proud. When we first met, he barked incessantly at anyone coming into his house. He also struggled to cope with passing traffic, and humans or dogs walking past while he was out on a walk. All of the above have greatly improved, all due to the commitment and work put in by the whole family. Amazing work, everyone.

Goldie is an energetic and bouncy little girl who just loved to express her love for humans by jumping all over them. She also loved to take her human siblings' soft toys from the playroom and make it her own. I'm glad to say that after a lot of hard work and dedication from her humans she passed her one to one training programme with flying colours. Well done, everyone 👏

12/08/2024

Little Bonnie joined her forever family without any training. She was, to say the least, a Kangaroo, jumping was her go-to behaviour. She had next to no ability to show any impulse control. What happens, though, when you have a committed family who are all aboard in wanting to do the best for their new 4-legged family member, can truly be amazing. Well done not just to Bonnie but to her and her whole family.
This little video clip shows a remarkable transformation 👏

Goldie, "Jumping Jack" has turned a massive corner. We met at the side gate, where most people call in through, for our session, and her mam had full control over her. She was still very excited about people calling, but it was her choice to stay with and focussed on her mam.

Bonnie has come on leaps and bounds! The massive improvement is due to the amazing work being put in by her whole family. From mostly uncontrollable and with very little "communication skills," this little rescue has turned into an amazing little pet 🐾

What a transformation. When Rosie started her behaviour modification programme, her reactivity toward humans was as such that her mam considered muzzling her when we first met. With hard work, consistency, and a workable training plan, not only did she complete the programme, but I was also able to pin her rosette to her collar. This might seem trivial, but any movement toward her neck or face would have triggered a reaction. An amazing little girl with a super mam and dad who are determined to focus on setting her up for success by continuing to work with her.
