✨ Initial Consultation w/ Estrela ✨

Estrela came along for an initial consultation with her family and young handler to work on life skills and to assess her suitability as an emotional support dog.

She has attended puppy school and shows great food drive, which is fantastic for training and shaping new behaviours. During our session we discussed the family’s goals and expectations, and looked at the foundations needed to support both Estrela’s development and her young handler’s confidence.

We covered how to introduce marker words in simple, practical terms, why clear communication matters, and how to break behaviours down into achievable steps. Estrela responded beautifully!!

She is a bright, engaged pup who demonstrates excellent potential to continue building her skills and working towards emotional support suitability. With consistency at home and continued guided training, she and her handler will make a wonderful team.

✨ Fern Has Completed Her 4-Week Pet Gundog Program!

Fern has made steady, thoughtful progress over the past month, and I’m really pleased with how her foundations are developing.

🔸 Confidence: She has grown significantly in confidence, showing a more engaged and willing working attitude each week.
🔸 Loose Lead Walking & Heelwork: Her LLW is becoming consistently tidy, and her heelwork is starting to settle into a nice, clear position.
🔸 Recall: Recall is progressing well — she’s showing improved responsiveness and a quicker return to handler.
🔸 Fetch: Her fetch on cue is coming along, including returning to the handlers and offering a release once back in position.

Fern has been a lovely young dog to work with, and I’m very proud of the progress she and her handler have made together.

Great work team Fern

✨Initial consultation w Marley✨
This week we met with Marley and her new family, she has recently been adopted.

Like many young pups adjusting to a new environment, Marley is learning that the world can be a big and sometimes overwhelming place. Our focus with Marley will be building confidence in specific social situations — helping her feel calm, curious, and secure when faced with new people, places, and sounds.

Through positive exposure, gentle guidance, and lots of encouragement, we’ll help Marley grow into a well-rounded, resilient young dog who enjoys new adventures with confidence. 🐾
