Another beautiful dog that's doing an incredible job! Used to be distracted by all movement and especially dogs. Now loves his training and can get him to disengage from dogs and people!

Disengaging from Distractions!

A big part of training is working around distractions and helping them keep focus on us instead of rushing to every dog and person they see. As part of our training walks I take Olive to a quieter part of the park, letting her watch the dogs/kids/bikes and other exciting things from a distance she can cope with, rewarding calm behaviour and asking for eye contact to encourage her to engage with me and turn away from the distractions.
In these photos a dog is around 5 metres infront of her, she is calmly watching and then easily turning back to face me.
Doing this during still moments will make it easier for us when we add in loose lead walking. After this moment we then started to walk back to her home, she saw another dog, and voluntarily checked in with me instead of trying to go to say hello. Massive breakthrough in her training for a young girl!

An exciting update from me! I often recommend different enrichment items, treats etc for owners to use with their dogs. It can be a pain to then go locate these things on your own.
Welcome to my little shop! On my website you'll find in the shop section all my discount codes and links plus items to buy from me to come straight to you 🙂
At the moment the shop isn't too big- I'm aiming to add the training leads that I love and recommend and more food items 🥰
For owners in classes or having 121s (or those living in Yaxley) please message instead of ordering through the website and I can deliver to you instead of you paying postage fees 🙂

Little dogs!
Small dogs often get labelled as the annoying yappy dogs. Think of the world from their perspective! They are much smaller than a lot of dogs, and think how huge us humans must seem to them.
Now imagine a giant rushing over and the first thing they did was reach for the top of your head, making loud noises while doing so. Now think how you greet a dog...many people go to the ears/top of head to petting, often looming over the dog in the process. A lot of dogs will actually try to avoid head petting, preferring chest or back for us humans to fuss.

When you're barely a foot tall the world can be a scary place and shouting at things to give you space to feel safe might be the only option. Don't let your taller dog loom over the small ones, and think how you greet all dogs but especially the little ones 🥰

Some wonderful settle work with some willing distractions! These cows are the best, as soon as we went closer to the fence to make it more challenging they came over, mooing and walking up and down beside us 😂

Meet Cooper! You might have seen him as a dog I was working with for a while, after a tough decision the owner decided to rehome and he now lives with me 🥰 we are deep into the sassy teenage phase so giving plenty of settling time and continue working on the foundation of training that teenage phase brings.
Looking forward to sharing our journey with you all!

Hope everyone is enjoying the hot weather! Be sensible with your dogs and ensure plenty of rests of activities in shaded areas like Ella is doing here 🙂 today we focused our Walk in more shaded locations and had stops for water and full shade rests.
Every dog is different in there temperature limits to look at the dog in front of you 🙂

Some spaces left in the Level 1s starting on Monday at Yelling Village Hall 😀

Recall, loose lead, settle, focus, coming away from distractions, drop etc! Fun, positive training to build a strong foundation for a well rounded dog 🙂

Hey! Thought it's been a while since I introduced myself to you all. My love of animals has always been part of who I am. When I'm not training dogs you'll often find me volunteering at a hedgehog hospital, visiting zoos/wildlife parks to learn and see other animals up close. I've worked with a variety of animals over the years which have all taught me different things (nothing quite like being chased by angry jungle fowl wanting their dinner 😂
My main goal with my work is for owners and dogs to have fun together, build positive relationships to get the outcomes we are looking for. Training is hard work (especially those teenagers!), so making it as fun as possible, we can find the joy in those challenging times 🥰

Happy Wednesday- hope everyone is having as happy a wee as this cheeky wee lad. He has made so much progress with his training walks focusing on disengaging and not reacting to people/dogs etc. Such a clever boy 🥰

Dog Around Wildlife!
Especially around this time of year when there are babies around keeping dogs neutral around other animals is key. Dogs chasing other animals causes unnecessary stress and potential harm.
Dogs should be kept on lead around wildlife and livestock even if they have a rock solid recall as anything could happen. One sudden movement from the other animal can trigger a chase response in our dogs- think about what your breed was originally bred to do.
Here is Cooper doing a very good job at disengaging from some swans in the park- quick look then turning away to continue our walk 🥰

121s with this lovely little girl- working on some tricks to work her brain with a focus on loose lead walking and desensitising to the car. Cars can be really scary so lots of patience and time being taken to help her over this fear 🥰

This little angel is doing so well building her confidence and learning the world. Traffic going past is particularly scary for her so lots of work on desensitising her to the sounds and sights of vans/trucks etc 🥰

Young Olive showing how it is done! 🥰

No better feeling than when the training clicks, beautiful walking and a quicker disengagement from a distraction 🥰

Some training fun with Cooper 🥰 not filmed today in this heat!

Love working on impulse control- look at this young girl go! 🥰

A bit about Training walks 🙂

More Training Walk fun 🥰 training walks are set up as a block of 8 sessions over 4 weeks to work on loose lead/recall/focusing in the outside world 🥰

What have been your tricks for helping keep your dogs cool this week?

Fab wee girl making great progress with our training walks 🥰

Some recall with distractions in class 🥰

First two weeks with Cooper the rehome 🥰

Puppy recall! Building up recall with lots of fast paced games and toys! Toys are so useful to create a speedy recall, a toy we can play tug and stay connected is key for this. I used @tugenuff toys for this session 🥰 if you're looking for a recall toy you can use my code LUCYCROOK for a wee discount 😉

Training Walks with Freddie 🥰 Loose lead walk training is a journey, so much progress being made so proud of him 😍😍

Some amazing walking! Making it tougher with her by purposefully changing my tempo for her to learn to pace to me 🥰 #dogtraining #dogtraininguk #positivedogtrainingmethods #positivedogtraining #looseleadwalking

Teddy was a constant puller, his owners have worked hard alongside his training walks and he's come such a long way 🥰🥰 #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dog #looseleadwalking #trainingwalk #positivedogtrainingmethods #positivedogtraining #positivedogtrainingworks
