My name is Larry and I am 11 weeks old. I would like some play mates of similar size/age to play with at my house or your house. If you live beach side/burwood please email my mum!

A friendly reminder to take your dog to just dog, every week. No talking, slow movement (if that’s what they want), no expectation - just being in nature together.

It will fill your dogs cup with feel good hormones, calm their and your nervous system. And I don’t know about you but seeing my dog doing what he loves, brings me joy!

Happy Friday 🐭 ☀️ 🌾🍃

My parents are looking for a house-sit or rental when they visit from Sweden in September & October 2026. They can care for a cat or dog, minimum 2 bedroom and preferably walking distance to Oram Avenue in New Brighton. PM me to chat more ☺️ Thanks, Clara

A question I often get asked is, “How do I know if my dog’s nails need cutting?” The answer is that they shouldn’t touch the ground when your dog stands with a relaxed posture on a hard surface. When the nail touches the ground, it’s actually pushing the bone that the nail is attached to upwards, which is uncomfortable for your dog and will lead to pain and arthritis in the long run.

I know how scary it might feel to cut your dogs' nails, and how awful it is to cut the quick too short. The good news is, I can teach you how to confidently cut your dog’s nails, or even cut them for you!

I have a small human in my tummy! This is why I've been a bit quiet /// I've also just been enjoying summer and not having much computer time. If you'd like to work with me before I take maternity leave you still have plenty of time - get in touch through the link below. Have you got some follow up sessions you'd like to book in? Make sure to do that before June!

I've had a fun and busy summer working with some really great humans and their dog companions. I am really impressed with the dog community here in Christchurch of late. I feel like there is so much more responsibility and care being taken when it comes to helping our dogs live their best life ⭐

Stay dry today ☔

Friday to you all! Percy showing off his ”hands up” cue. It’s a fun and easy trick to teach your dog. I find it very useful when I’m carrying something (child etc) and want to leash him. I simply cue ”hands up” on my leg and leash him without having to bend over 🫶

Well, that’s a wrap - my temporary contract at Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust covering for Mind Pro Animal Behaviour is complete 🫶

What a fun ride it has been to be one of the shelter behaviour advisors! I’ve done a bunch of cool stuff like seen a few longtermers find their forever homes, watched training plans rehabilitate dogs with big feelings and enhanced general wellbeing at the shelter!

Now I’m back with 100% focus on my business - how can I help you and your dog this summer? Comment with ideas below 👇🤩

Dottie is the sweetest young girl. She was very unsure of me when I walked into her home. She was barking at me, then she observed me, then she decided I was not the threat she thought I was and that I could stay.

Imagine if giant strangers were invited to your house without you knowing and you had no say? You might have something to say about it?! Fair enough.

As your dog’s life coach/planner/decison maker you have to make sure they feel safe no matter what’s going on. Not just telling them they should stop barking and just be ok - because they might not feel ok!

Generally dogs that feel unsafe are too close to the perceived threat. Can you help your dog understand that guests come in peace? Can you help your dog make good choices and move away from the threat? Can you put your dog away when it’s not a training opportunity?

This is a big topic that I love brainstorming about. If you need some help, get in touch 🐾✨
