So just to let you know. I'm taking a break as a very close friend of mine has passed away and I've been looking after his wife who has parkinsons. I'd like to thank everyone for their support I hope to get back to the dogs when I can. Thank you and all the best.

Today I did a free assessment with a lovely 4 and a half month old Labrador, Sadie. She's such a wonderful dog and will grow to be exceptional! Her owner Susie Cutlack has been doing great with her training she just asked about getting a dog to heel. She showed me what she was doing and I have to say they are both on track. What I did notice is low engagement and a tad reactive. But I'm sure with perseverance they will get there. I'm just a msg away, two heads are better than one. Orbost Neighbourhood House I suggested the class.🙂

Introducing Katie a 7month old Staffy x. Shes had an interesting start going through a couple of foster homes. Katie liked to pull a lot but she learnt to walk on a loose lead in about 20mins. What an extraordinary dog so well behaved and it was nice to see Katie and her owner Peter Ford walking together. For those interested we swapped out the harness for a Standard collar and Katie improved straight away.

DOG OF THE WEEK: Goes to Lily. A 5month old Stanard Poodle (posted earlier). She used to pull a bit but those days are gone. Today I took her OFF LEAD (secure area) and asked her to heel and she followed me around the yard in HEEL position.

Hello im Raffy....Thanks Kev for the walk. It was great fun and I learned not to pull on the leash. From Raffy

25/11/2023

Hi all. Today I had Raffy a very solid Staffy.(this is not a poem 😊) He was wearing a harness. Hasn't really had a walk for a while and I'm told has poor recall. I was doing an assessment of the dog and showing the person who is going to walk the dog how to stop the dog from pulling. After 25mins with a little correction (he hasn't been in harness till today so hasn't picked up any bad habits) I had him on a loose lead and we happily strolled home.

Fantastic Dog!

Update on Ben & Sonny. Ben's in love and has a girlfriend so he's quite content.

Now Sonny....... (Golden Retriever) is walking very nicely. When we first started he pulled very firmly but now it's soo enjoyable.
I'll attach a video.

If you have a doggy issue message me and I'll have a look doesn't cost anything to look.

So Shadow a 6/7 year old pugxstaffy. He loves his walks and liked to pull ALOT. He's been doing it for years. For those interested he is in a harness which as you know sometimes make them pull even more so but there is a way around it which I started with Shadow today with a good bit of success. He walked really well till he knew we were heading home but we will get there. It's taken 7 years to create this habit it won't go away overnight but all in all he is progressing so it seems you can teach an old dog new tricks. Not that he's that old (middle aged).

My walk with 3yr old Golden Retriever Sonny. Couldn't get a good video but ill do a proper one soon. This was taken with one hand. Sonny walking on a loose lead. Hes doing soo well! He used to pull so much. So ill call that a Win! I love how he looks up at me sort of saying "hey boss how am I going? Is this alright?"
