Don't let your pup miss out on the fun

Millie is a little dote, except when it came to dinner time. She drove her family quite mad. So, we set aside one of her one to one at home sessions to work on this by starting to build on a, what is now, solid settle behaviour. It is safe to say that the result, after working on set-ups and progressing to full dinner time behaviour, has transformed Millie from table demon to table angel. Transformations like this can only come from consistency and putting in the work. Well done, everyone, especially little girl Millie 💕

Dog grooming is so important to keep on top of. But it can be so scary for puppies and is so important as part of their early socialisation to get them confident and relaxed in a salon. There is nothing as nice as working with a relaxed dog that enjoys being pampered to give maximum beauty levels! We offer a discounted price for a pups first groom, our grooming team will discuss a price for your furbaby.
Get your babies booked in for the puppy pamper package 😍

Recall training is so important, yet it is one of the least trained behaviours, it is, in fact, a behaviour we expect from our pups. Here is Izzy, currently taking part in the Puppy Life Skills course with myself and The Dog Squad, showing how reward based Recall training pays off. Amazing work, little Izzy 💞

Roxy recently completed the Puppy Life Skills course with myself and The Dog Squad. Unfortunately, she had to undergo surgery on her femur today. The surgery went well, and she's safe at home for her recovery. Best of luck, little girl. Hopefully, you'll join your sister for coffee shop outings with your mam again soon.

Saoirse is taking her training challenges very seriously. One of the challenges we set as part of our Puppy Life Skills course is to stay on a settle mat in a dog friendly coffee shop while the humans have a cuppa and something to eat. She aced her challenge!
Saoirse's mam also shared that they had someone out to the house to fix the washing machine, and when asked, Saoirse happily went to her settle mat and stayed there while the work was being done!
Absolutely amazing work, everyone.

I've a standard line I use at the end of all training courses and programmes: "The real work, the real training starts now!!" When I then get videos from clients who've completed their training with me, showing me how they've embraced just that, continued, lifelong, training, it is something I have to share!! Amazing work with Yummi and Stella.... well done 👏 🐾🐶🐾
