A group of our lovely young dogs had a wonderful time on their Public Access Training Trip exploring a local Cafe with their trainers.

Our beautiful blonde Labrador Swift was thrilled to be showing off just how much she loves her job, approaching every cue with great enthusiasm and quite possibly the waggiest tail we have ever seen!

Swift is only just beginning her more intensive training, but showed just how much promise and potential she has ready to be utilised by displaying her beautiful engagement skills, and showing off her lovely settling and ability to ignore intense distractions as she fell asleep in the Cafe.

Excellent work Swift! 🦮🐾

This gorgeous photo of Reggie under the Eiffel Tower on his recent adventures with his handler. Reggie is a wonderful example of a dog that has crossed over from our original CIC to Wild Spirit Canines CIC and is currently in end stage training. We loved hearing all their stories about really starting to enjoy their new found freedom.

Travelling abroad with an Assistance dog usually takes a large amount of planning and training preparation. So, a huge well done to both parties who have worked so hard to achieve just the beginning of their goals together.

This photo was so brilliant, we couldn’t wait to share!

One of our placement dogs, Forest, out at a local aquarium. We love seeing our handlers push their dogs training to access fun and unusual environments. There are many things outside of day to day life that handlers may want to attend. Places such as aquariums, zoos, cinemas and attractions are usually shared milestones for our handlers. From big to small transitions, we enjoy providing preparation support and advice for new situations years into the dog going home to their handler. We were especially proud of Forest for working around multiple bodies of nose height open water in this environment and we’re glad to have practiced this previously at the National Botanical Garden of Wales!

Image description:
The first image shows a photo of forest in front of a large multicolour mural on the wall of an aquarium, the mural is of two wings and Forest is sat in the centre. The second image shows forest below an aquarium exhibit with a glass opening and small fish in the image, there is a deep blue glow from the lights above. The third image shows Forest sat in front of a large glass panel with many colourful yellow fish, she is looking into the panel calmly, admiring the spectator view

Penny is definitely our most well traveled WSC dog to date! She is on a cruise as we speak and loving the adventure as always ⛴️ 🐕‍🦺

She has been to 7 countries with her handler so far and loves seeing the world. What a superstar she is!

To end the celebration of international assistance dog week we send a huge congratulations to Fig and her handler for graduating university this week!

We hold so much joy in seeing handlers succeeding at university as our Managing Director Laura once did with her assistance dog Summer.

We are very excited to see our first group of placement dogs again soon for their annual reassessments 🦮

One of our superb young assistance dogs in training Ralph showing off his off lead skills in a public access training session 🐾

He thoroughly enjoyed displaying these skills to enthusiastic passers by, as well as demonstrating how strong his medical alerts are - even ignoring intense people distractions to indicate his handler of an incoming medical episode 🦮

Thank you for always being so supportive and welcoming to our young assistance dogs!

We always have so much fun training in a group - the general public always love observing and asking questions about the training activities that we do together!

Our wonderful demo dog Summer enjoyed heading to town recently for a weekend shopping trip.

She had a brilliant time showing off all her favourite tasks, from her traditional Guide work tasks to Medical responses. As a multipurpose assistance dog, Summer is trained in over 30 tasks in order to be able to assist her handler and demonstrate task work to future Wild Spirit Canines handlers, as well as members of the general public. What a superstar! 🦮🐾

We are so excited to share photos of the lovely puppies that are with or will be going to our super puppy raisers. It’s been a brilliant adventure starting our breeding program and we hope you enjoy following their progress. Their young life will be filled with specific program socialisation, foundational training and a lot of time having fun and being puppies.

We are incredibly grateful to all of our volunteers who have made this possible. We provide custom support to our puppy raisers and the process is based on encouraging personal growth and opening up opportunities.

We are not taking enquiries about these puppies until they are in training and atleast one year old.

Fun fact : Puffin and Floras mum is Forests and Ziggy’s cousin!

We are incredibly excited to share the awards video and further posts on the celebrations with

We were honoured to meet with His Majesty The King, many fantastic celebrities and to spend time with the other incredibly deserving award winners.

We send a huge thank you to the sponsor for this award, and for sponsoring this once in a lifetime event. We are incredibly grateful to the Princes Trust for continuously providing us with support, for going above and beyond for Summer and Laura to make this event, the travel and all arrangements accessible and for organising an event that is truly the epitome of a celebration. Last but by no means least - thank you to the fantastic Summer for her near flawless behaviour and task work throughout this event, Lauras once in a life time dog (who thought the award was her dinner bowl).

Introducing Scrump!

Scrump is one of our Assistance Dogs in training. He is a Showline Golden Cocker Spaniel and is just beginning his formal education.

His journey is another very exciting one that we can’t wait to share with you all.

He is excelling in all things obedience and we can’t wait to get him out into the big wide world very soon.

Introducing Tigger!

Tigger is one of our Assistance dogs in training. He is training to become an Autism assistance dog. He has just turned a year old so still has a long way to go but is smashing every step of our training programme so far.

We can’t wait to share more of his exciting journey with you all as he progresses into his future career.

Posts about our other new additions from group two will also be posted over the coming weeks, so keep an eye out!

Introducing Stevie!

Stevie is our first Spaniel placement dog and our first male placement dog!

He is an 18month old show line Cocker Spaniel from a fantastic licensed breeder and has a 10 generation pedigree including champions in the show ring and field.

He is doing exceptionally well in his training and has cracked his heel work, loose lead walking, recall and settling one month in - all the common spaniel troubles.

When we get new placement dogs we spend the first 6-8 weeks re-completing the entire socialisation checklist to make sure that everything is proofed and start them on all of their foundational training.

Stevie is now beginning his assistance dog training and will be progressing towards his career as an Autism Assistance dog to be placed in 2024 (handler already assigned).

We look forward to sharing his journey with you all!

Frankie is in her final stages of training. Before going home with Sophie, dog and handler go through the process of handler training that includes time for Frankie to adjust and practice, and allows Sophie to practice all of Frankie’s cues. Our handler training also includes learning about canine first aid, dog care, monitoring health, reading dog body language and tackling access issues. They worked so well as a team and we can’t wait to see the very bright future they have together come into place.

Frankie is going to be attending university this September with Sophie.
