Over a decade experience owning, training and working with these amazing animals! Leadership is love

Marvin - 18 month old Cane Corso/Boxer/Labrador ❤️ He's a belter! Found as a stray in Liverpool so little known about his past, but he's developing beautifully in his forever home. He joined us on the fundamentals class and absolutely nailed it, so I'm guessing someone had loved and at least started training him before he was on the streets... His behaviour at home is fantastic, he just needed a little tidying up on his walks. As he's a big strong dog, its even more important his owners already totally in control. We did a loose lead lesson a couple of weeks again and he smashing that too!! Need to do a little work around dogs and he's developed a little bit of reactivity, but practicing his loose lead walking in environments with other dogs should see the back of it as quickly as it came! What an absolute stunner 😍

Rogue - 3yr old GSD, Bracken and Bramble - both 4 yr old WCSs, and Hetty - 5 yr old Collie. All absolutely lovely dogs! ❤️ And all behave themselves (mostly 😅) very well.
The work we've been doing has predominantly been with Rogue, the GSD. He's a beautiful boy, with a lovely and affectionate nature. His challanges are all around his ability to control himself when energy is high, which, when you have Collies and WCSs can be quite frequent... He was releasing his energy by chasing the other dogs and using his mouth to control them so was limited with the freedom and trust he got. 1 session saw him curb this quickly, 2nd session we took muzzle and long lead off and now..? Almost nonexistent, and super easy to stop him if he gets a little over excited. Started working him through high distracted recall yesterday so shouldn't be too long before he can enjoy all the freedom life offers a well behaved, well trained dog 😍

Alfie - 4, and Oscar - 3 yr old Collies. Both are absolutely lovely dogs ❤️ Super affectionate and loving, attentive and obedient. Both also have some undesirable behaviours we've been working through... Alfie was notoriously difficult to walk as he hated traffic and would refuse to walk anywhere that wasn't his usual route. He'd drop onto his side and not move! 1 training session saw an end to this behaviour and he has truly gone from strength to strength. Now, not only does he not react at all, but he walks happily alongside some of the busiest, and fastest roads locally! Amazing turnaround 😁🙌🏼 He was also dog reactive when on his lead but this disappeared (almost) overnight too once we'd dealt with the road.
Oscars worst behaviour was around pulling on his lead. He picked up expectations really quickly, just needs a little more practice to make it really sharp!
And both of them hated the hoover... we've had 1 session around this and again, huge improvement, just a few more repetitions until that's a forgotten behaviour too 👌🏼 Really pleased with the development I've seen in both of them in just a few short weeks! 😍

Rocko - 1yr old Chihuahua ❤️ Awesome little dog, with a big personality. He's mostly a very good boy, but has a couple of areas he needs developing in... he can be a little unsure of people he doesn't trust, and isn't always at his best around other dogs. This leads to him barking and/or lunging to warn others away. It didn't take him long to warm to me though and he is responding really well to all the additional guidance he's been getting so the future is looking bright for him 🙌🏼 He's going to be starting recall soon too so will be able to enjoy more aspects of his walks! Little belter 😍

Meg - 3yr old Romania rescue ❤️ She is awesome 👌🏼 She has an amazing nature, friendly and social, loving and affectionate. Only a couple of bits to improve with her as she's already very well behaved. However, she has poor lead work and little to no recall, she just wants to get over to everyone to say hello and play. We've done 2 recall sessions and she's nailing it 😁🙌🏼 Recalling consistently around seriously high level distractions for her (other dogs!) and we're only 2 weeks in!! She'll be off her long lead with a dependable recall in no time. Wish they all made it this easy, and fun! She is a joy to work with 😍

Barry - 3 yr old Jack Russell. He's a cracking young dog, with a joyous personality ❤️ However, his behaviour out the house is not great. He's had limited guidance and exposure to the outside world, including other dogs, people and traffic and consequently is a pretty reactive little chap now. He was also a nightmare on his lead, pulling in every and any direction and was disengaged from his owners. We did a loose lead lesson with him yesterday and he was incredible! Picked it all up brilliantly and absolutely loved it when we gave him some long lead time to really burn off the backlog of energy. His reactivity is going to take a little longer to work through but I'm sure he'll nail that too once he's been given the guidance and opportunity 😁🙌🏼

Peggy Sue - 9 month old Jack Russell mix ❤️ What a beauty!! She completed our 'Fundamentals' class so already has a good foundation for her obediences. Lovely little dog who's super affectionate and loving with people she knows and trust. She has been untrusting of new people and was barking and lunging towards people while out on a walk. We spent a little time teaching her to feel calmer and more relaxed around people and in just a couple of weeks, her 'reactivity' towards people has all but disappeared 😁👌🏼 Clever little dot... she is also reactive towards dogs, but more out of frustration and wanting to meet and greet than fear of aggression. We've got a plan for this too which we'll get to over the coming weeks. We need to brush up on recall as she's finding her feet now and has started to explore a little more, and then finally, we need to work some threshold manners and teach her that an open front door is not an invitation to leave 😅 I'm sure she'll pick that up super quickly too 🥰

Huge congratulations again to all who graduated the 'fundamentals' class last night 👏🏼😁
Standards were exceptional and all did brilliantly! The difference in some of these is night and day from a few short weeks ago.
Foundations are built for a solid future, now time to make it happen in the big wide world!! Get it guys... 💪🏼

Jimmy - 2 yr old Sprocker ❤️ Absolute stunner!! He's a lovely dog with a fantastic nature, attentive and engaged. His areas for development all stem from his high energy (typical for his breed) and desire to get everywhere as quickly as possible 😅 Needless to say, he was a puller, making walks challenging while on his lead, although he's doing much better with this now. We've also brushed up on recall, still needs a bit more practice around really high level distractions but he's definitely getting there. Today we started his impulse control - ball is life for Jimmy so teaching him no to chase wasn't easy for him, but he absolutely nailed that too! He's taken really well to everything we've asked of him over the past few weeks, so I'm excited to see what we can achieve with him 😁🐾🙌🏼

Herbie - 2 yr old Bulldog. He's a cracking young dog with a lovely personality ❤️ He attended our group classes when he was a pup and did well with all the obedience, and was developing really nicely. He's always had an issue near the road though (not ideal when he lives on a busy road...) and this had escalated to him feeling more scared of traffic, resulting in him lunging and pulling towards it. It got to the point where going out was almost unbearable for him, and his owners, meaning he got walked less and therefore exposed to other things less, triggering reactions then when he saw other dogs too. Thrilled to say he now walks by the road without a second thought, and his reactivity to other dogs has massively reduced... another few weeks (and a bit more exposure) and he'll be absolutely golden ✨️
