In The Dog House Training

10/11/2024

If you’re anything like me and already half way through your first tub of Christmas chocolates, here is a reminder of what foods are dangerous for your dog as you begin to start buying and eating your festive goodies🎄

Keep mince pies, Christmas cake / pudding, stuffing, cooked bones and chocolate well out of your pooches reach.

As a qualified dog trainer of over 5 years, can you see why I’m not a fan of extendable leads and incorrectly fitted harnesses..?

This owner hasn’t even realised that her dog has slipped out of its harness and may run off at any moment..!

My 1-2-1 training will teach you how to walk your dog on a loose lead by your side using fun & friendly reward based techniques.

- Making every walk quality time with your dog
- Increasing engagement
- Strengthening your bond
- Be present and able to interact

I’m here to help.

Please contact me for further information.

With Halloween coming up, puréed pumpkin soothes your dog’s upset stomach and works wonders to relieve discomfort and especially diarrhoea.
So, stock up and freeze for future use 🎃

Hello lovely dog owners

If you subscribe to Netflix, this is a fascinating and insightful documentary.

Amongst other things, I learnt that a dogs nose imprint is unique and therefore similar to a humans finger print.

Hello lovely dog parents

It’s forecasted to be hot, hot, hot this week ☀️

PLEASE don’t walk your dog if the temperature is above 20 degrees.

As a tester, should you wish to take your dog out, please place the back of your hand on the pavement for about 7 seconds. If your hand starts to become uncomfortable, then it’s too hot for your dog’s paws.

Heat recommendations…🐾

- Buy a paddling pool or garden sprinkler and prevent sunburn by applying dog friendly sunscreen to the tip of their ears and nose
- Provide constant access to shade
- Wet their favourite soft toy or a scrunched up
t-towel and place in your freezer until firm for them to chew on and cool off. Alternatively freeze a large carrot for them to munch on for a healthy, cooling treat
- Put ice cubes in their water. I wouldn’t recommend feeding ice cubes directly as this could potentially damage their teeth.
- An obvious one but unfortunately it still needs to be said, NEVER leave your dog alone in your car, caravan or conservatory in hot weather.

An approximate guide to when your puppy should stop growing.
Please remember that up to the age of at least 10 months, as a rule of thumb all puppies should only be walked 5 mins per month of age (maximum twice a day)
eg 4 month old puppy….4 x 5 mins = 20 mins twice a day.
I’m here should you have any questions.

A doggy friendly ice cream recipe for you to make for your precious pooch

200ml Natural Yogurt
2 Bananas
2 teaspoons of Peamutt butter (available @ Pets at Home or Tesco)
A handful of dog friendly fruit - Blueberries, Raspberries or Strawberries (fresh or frozen)

Mix the banana, yoghurt and peamutt butter in a blender until it resembles a thick smoothie

In a silicon ice cube mould, chop up your dogs preferred berries and place in the bottom. Then pour over your smoothie mix.

Freeze until set (approximately 7 hours)

Prior to serving, run each cube quickly under a warm tap to avoid it sticking to your dog’s tongue 😊.

Please let me know if they enjoy 🐾

A common misconception is that a wagging tail is a happy dog.
Actually, different tail movements display what your dog is really feeling.
I’m here should you have any questions or require any training help.

MEET MARVELLOUS MAX.
Boarder Collies are the most intelligent dog breed. I helped Max’s owners get him to walk to heel.
I think that he was happy with our training session 🐾

Another satisfied customer. The wonderful Winston🐾
Hi Rachel! I hope you’re well. Thought I’d give an update on Winston, he can go up to 3 hours at home on his own now out the crate with no crying, weirdly us letting him do that he has now started napping in his crate! He is also miles better on the lead, still pulls but nowhere near as bad, I took this video earlier so you could see. ###
