Fit is everything, make sure any equipment your using with your dog is fitted correctly and sitting the way it should for the comfort and safety of your dog.

If you're an owner and your pooch is showing signs of stress when wearing a muzzle in public and on walks, some words of encouragement from Ezra's owner, Kit, might help! 🥰🐾

They said: "I tried him in a smaller muzzle and he was so stressed and shut down that he’d stop walking, bash his face on walls and hated being out. I got the lovely new one and he was a different dog overnight. He’s so happy in his muzzle, it’s like he’s not wearing it. Fit is everything."

When choosing a muzzle, it’s important to make sure:

🌡️ It allows excellent airflow so your dog doesn’t overheat while wearing it.
🐶 There is roughly 1cm space between your dog’s nose and the end of their muzzle - their nose shouldn’t touch the end of it.
💦 It allows your dog to open their mouth to pant, eat and drink.
💪 It’s made of a durable material that won’t break.

Remember, what suits one dog might not suit another, so be sure to measure your dog correctly for their muzzle and shop around to see what's available.

Let’s talk about digging, so your dogs a digger?

Instead of trying to eliminate natural behaviors like digging that have many benefits to dogs including…

⭐️Muscle building
⭐️Naturally files down nails
⭐️Enriching naturally occurring behavior
⭐️Burns energy

Why not give them a doggy dig pit so they have an appropriate place to dig instead of your flowerbeds.

Why not call or message us today to find other ways to enrich and train your dog.

We never recommend anything like greenies or whimzees to pet parents as they don’t contain very good ingredients or do their job of keeping up teeth and gum health.

With the holiday fast approaching, I just want to remind everyone that some things are not safe for your dog.

Please keep an eye on your pups this holiday season and remember to keep things out of your dogs reach that may be harmful.

Here at the school we also use this time to create some enrichment for our pups. Christmas crackers are made for our pups to open with toilet tube insides and treats as well as teaching our pups to open their own Christmas presents.

As always you can find out how to do this by shooting us a message.

We talk about stimulating a dog and people ask me all the time how you can do that.

Doing some research into what your dog was breed to do you can adapt activities to engage that instinct that they have.

Luna is an Australian Shepard and she has a lot of energy and loves a tennis ball, so instead of just throwing it over and over I teach her different things and her new par core wall running is new.

Reach out to us today to find out what you can do for your dog today.

Why should you train your dog?

Training fosters a relationship built on respect between you and your dog. With training your dog learns healthy boundries and uses the brain which can be amazing for dogs with high energy levels.

Most of the time, dogs who display bad behaviors are usually bored, understimulated and lack basic rules and structure.

Start building that today with us and see the difference for yourself.

Training starts from $80 and I’ve seen it change lives.
