Reactive dog session
Wednesday evening reactive dog class. All these dogs & handlers are learning impulse control and how to build their confidence around other dogs in a structured and safe environment. Teaching them how to correct the dogs unwanted behaviour at the precise moment required to prevent the reactivity from escalating.
After hearing some complete nonsense training advice I was told today that a client was given about her people reactive dog, it blows my mind that so called trainers are recommending to REHOME a dog rather than correct the aggression! That is NOT dog training, that is passing the buck, aren’t the shelters & rescues bursting at the seams????
Those who can teach, those who can’t spread false information & negativity!! 🐾👊🏻

Fabulous Social Walk today, the weather was perfect for dogs!
24 dogs, all behaved impeccably and the owners weren't bad either 😉🤣
Everyone enjoyed a cold drink & a cake when we arrived back and the dogs got a lovely treat bag courtesy of Top Dog Treat Box Co.. See you all on the next one in August! 🐾🥰

Retrieval practice
Teaching a dog to retrieve, whether its a weighted dumbbell or items from a property square, you need to engage with your dog. Play with them, make it exciting, lift the energy and let the dog have fun. Playing with your dog while training is a relationship builder and a win/win solution as you build better control. Your dog learns to listen while excited & maintains a happy attitude while learning. Gary taught Mia to retrieve the weighted dumbbell in 10 minutes, from disinterested to excited about bringing the article back to him. Eventually she will wait while the 650g dumbbell is thrown, retreive when sent, present and hold the item until the handler retrieves from the mouth and return to the sit position. Moving on from this, the dog is required to retrieve the dumbbell over a scaler and A frame at various heights and different weighted retrieving articles.

Training is a very important time during the early developmental stages. Increasing your puppy’s confidence, using scentwork & obedience exercises to build a better line of communication between you and your dog is a great way to start the training, using high value treats as a lure to engage the puppy with lots & lots of praise. In addition, you will learn how to prevent problems before they can begin, or deal with them as they emerge, rather than having to find a way to react to problems after they have already developed.

Today we worked with Kara & her compulsive behaviour. Kara chases anything that moves, she has a seriously high prey drive making walks a nightmare for her owners. She lunges at moving vehicles, in the past she’s almost caused accidents and could’ve been badly injured.
In this session we worked with the vibrating collar to issue a correction when she lunged at the traffic, using the “leave it” command at the same time, after a few corrections the vibration was no longer needed and the dog remained calm as the traffic passed. Massive well done to Kara & her owners 👏🏻👏🏻🐾🥰

Thursday morning’s circus 🤦🏻♀️
A morning in the life of a dog trainer. You couldn’t write it 🙄🤦🏻♀️💩🐾
Reactive Dog Session
The reactive dog sessions are fantastic for helping both dogs & handlers manage and correct the dogs unwanted behaviour, teaching the dog how to conduct themselves around other dogs & in public areas. We teach the dog to focus on the handler regardless of the distraction.

A little bit of training with Penny and the black & tanners Oak & Lolly 🥰🐾
The Malinois 🥰🐾
The Malinois 😍. One of the most amazing breeds in the right hands. Brave, confident, protective, very intelligent but also extremely stubborn and will test you if they arent given the right kind of stimulation and training. They are a fabulous all rounder with lots of stamina and drive but not suitable for the feinthearted or a weak handler, please dont get one if you arent prepared to put consistant effort in!! We have lots of these dogs here on a weekly basis, these are just a few snippets of their training 🐾🥰👊🏻

The German Shepherd.
Loyal, brave, intelligent, energetic & everything you need in a companion.
The breed we get the most of to train each week, these dogs are fabulous at agility, obedience, protection & tracking. They dont get enough recognition as an amazing family dog. These are a few of the dogs we’ve had in the last week here at K9Rehab.
What’s your favourite breed & why? 🐾
