🐾✨ Any Dog Can Be a Parkour Dog! ✨🐾
Hey dog lovers!
Ever thought your pup couldn't do parkour? Think again!
Parkour is for EVERYONE—from puppies to golden oldies, Pomeranians to Pyrenean Mountain Dogs - and everything in between! 🐶🎉
Whether your dog is a high-energy sports dog or a sedate senior, a dog with special requirements, or a breed of any size, parkour is the perfect activity. I've seen it all: Labradors with hip dysplasia, my own 13-year-old German Pointer who was going deaf, and even visually impaired dogs or tripawd pups—all thriving and loving parkour! 🐕❤️
Why is parkour so great? Just take a look:
✅ Excellent for socialisation�
✅ Builds confidence in nervous dogs�
✅ Exercise for body and brain�
✅ Helps build a strong bond with your best friend�
✅ Creates focus�
✅ Helps with impulse control�
✅ Perfect for sports dogs recovering from injury or looking to build fitness and core strength�
✅ Improves body awareness and proprioception—it's like power yoga for dogs!
Our upcoming 2-day Beginner's Workshop on the 29th and 30th June is all about setting the foundations of parkour. It’s the first step of the parkour journey. From here, it's up to you and your dog how far you take it! The skills you learn can be used out on your walks, letting you experience your environment in a fun and totally different way. 🌿🐾
Check out this video from our last workshop where participants share their parkour experiences. 📹✨

Remember, remember... don't leave it until the week before Bonfire Night to start trying to desensitise your dog to the noises made by fireworks. #dogtrainingtips #dogtrainer #dogtraineruk #noisesensitivity #gspcommunity #gsplove
When teaching a new skill, it's always best to start before you actually need to use it.
Here are our first efforts with the new dog steps.
You can see how Hitch's confidence grows with repetitions. And Dex, well I think I've created a step addict 😆😆😆
