Dog Training and Behaviour Advice Here at Dog Almighty, WE LOVE DOGS! We train them, we walk them, we help their owners with their behaviour.

We run classes and we train with dogs at home, we go on training walks and we train your dog on your behalf. All in sunny Nelson, NZ. We also love to TALK ABOUT DOGS so we do our best to keep you up to date with new ideas and information about dogs, hot off the press ;) We run workshops about dogs on Sundays. Finally, we like to help dogs that need it...especially those looking for a home or desperately needing dog training to stay out of trouble. Check out our website for more details.

“For dogs, especially those who are anxious or traumatised, safety isn’t just about having a calm space to retreat to. It’s about the emotional atmosphere we create around them. If we approach them with softness, patience, and empathy, they can start to feel safe. However, if we’re tense, impatient, or stressed (even if we try to hide it) they’ll sense that too, and it can reinforce their feelings of insecurity.”

Dogs are incredibly in tune with us, much more than we sometimes give them credit for. It’s not just our words or actions they pay attention to, our dogs are constantly reading our emotional states.A study by Müller and her team in 2015 gives us a deeper understanding of this, showing that dogs c...

Halloween is coming up this week so I wrote a new article all about how to set your dog up for success for SPOOKY celebrations and traditions.

It is packed full of helpful advice if door-knockers and freaky costumes might be a big experience for your dog. I've also included clear guidance for "noise phobic" dogs who find fireworks and bangers super scary and I discuss the ethics of dressing dogs up in costume. Because let's face it, not all of them love it!

This article is just for Club Dog members so be sure to sign up so you can access this and all my new articles. Membership starts at just $14.99 per month to get your paws on heaps of cool dog videos and articles.

Are you prepared to look after your pet in an emergency? Preparing a pet emergency ‘grab bag’ is important.

What would you put in yours?

Tomorrow is NZ ShakeOut Day and on behalf of your pets, have you included them in your emergency plans? 🐶🐱

There are lots of things you can do to ensure the welfare of your animals in an emergency. A good place to start is putting together an emergency survival kit and a ‘grab bag’ if you need to evacuate.

Your at-home emergency survival kit should contain enough supplies to last at least three days, whilst your ‘grab bag’ is more portable and easier to grab in a hurry.

Here are some essentials to keep in your ‘grab bag’:
💧 Food and water
🍽️ Bowl
⚕️ Basic first aid kit
🧸 Carrier and blanket/bedding
🐱 Photograph
💉 Veterinary records/medication
🐕 Lead/muzzle for dogs

Being prepared can help save lives, and your animals can’t prepare for themselves. Check out our website for more info: https://bit.ly/3BVdmJE

Hope you all had a fab Christmas Day yesterday! 🎅🎅 Puppy play session are one of our very favourite things to do! It is so special watching pups learn how to communicate, play and navigate interactions with one another. It is a very important life skill and they need to learn to "speak dog" while still young pups. It can be tricky to find other puppies for play sessions, especially when your dog is not fully vaccinated. We can help you out by matching you with other puppy owners and supervising your play session. Get in touch if you keen for some help to socialise your pup. We are taking bookings again from 8 January 2024. #puppyplay #dogtrainingtips #puppysocialisation

At Club Dog Almighty, Thursday is "course day" - so every Thursday we post a new bite-sized video for members to watch and have a go at home in their own time. Each course is normally 4 or 5 weeks long, with a new video every Thursday. We are just finishing up a 5 week course on DIY Agility, this topic won the most votes from members! This video was part of Week 3 DIY Agility which was all about teaching your dog to walk along objects - this can be scary for newbies but an excellent confidence building exercise if the dog feels supported. Sprocket loved this new game! Join us at Club Dog Almighty for our next online course that will be starting in the New Year. All courses are included in your monthly membership.

When it comes to getting results, our "Bootcamp" training package cannot be beaten. Bootcamp involves 10 training sessions over a 4 week period. Many dog owners work full time and cannot attend all the sessions, and thats OK! We will do the dog training while they are busy at work. All bootcamp includes "Skills Transfer Sessions" where the owner learns how to get their dog to do their shiny new skills and how they should keep practicing after bootcamp finishes. Here is a short video from a Skills Transfer Session with Lee and her dog Whiskey 🐶✌ We are currently taking bookings for bootcamp in 2024. Get in touch to chat about whether bootcamp is right for you and your dog. #dogtraining #intensivedogtraining #bootcampdogtraining
