Here are a few photos from the recent “Out and About” Classes in Johannesburg.

These classes are all about training out in the real world and having fun on the outing!

So proud of all the dogs and their progress❤️

This is a great cooperative care tip we share during puppy school!

Teach your pup to be happy with body handling but also “name” the procedure you will be doing so that your pup knows what to expect!

Thank you for the lovely feedback🥰❤️

What was on the agenda for the Pretoria Thursday (5pm) fun class.

✅ problem solving with food puzzles. I love seeing the dogs figure it out.
✅ pivots as a fun trick and to work on hond-limb awareness
✅ shaping a “nose in a cone” trick and working on duration!

The ongoing fun classes has a little bit of everything normally. We do scentwork, tricks, yoga, obedience, etc. So if you can’t decide on a course with us- this is the one to take!

Yesterday we did our scentwork lesson “out and about” in Pretoria. The dogs, big and small, all did SO well and searched so well in the new environment.

If you’re interested in joining our fun scentwork lessons- the Pretoria classes happen on Tuesdays (5pm) in Menlo Park and we really have a lot of fun!

Have you heard about the Out & About classes yet?

These classes are where we go and train out in the “real world”.

Want your dog to walk better on leash? We do that!
Want a more focused dog when you’re out? We do that!
Want a dog that’s relaxed at a coffee shop? We do that!

Here are a few Joburg students at their last Out and About lesson at gg's Café in Midrand.

We love scentwork! Its a “small step, big win”. So that means that just doing this small activity can have big benefits for dogs.

Here’s an excerpt from an article written by Rachel Lane from The Pet Professional Guild:

“There are two physiological benefits of scent work that help reduce a dog’s anxiety. First, dogs who spend time sniffing have lower pulse rates and greater heart rate variability than dogs who do not spend time sniffing (Amaya et al., 2020; At the Heart of the Walk, n.d.). This tells us that scent work impacts a dog’s parasympathetic nervous system in a way that helps them relax. Second, scent work activates a dog’s seeking system, which produces dopamine (Panksepp, 2010). The release of dopamine helps prevent anxiety and aversive conditioning (Zweifel et al., 2011). This means that if a dog is anxious before participating in scent work, scent work can help lower the dog’s anxiety. And, for less anxious dogs, scent work can help to ensure that their anxiety levels stay low.

Recent research found that dogs who participated in scent work had a more positive cognitive bias than dogs who were taught to heel (Duranton & Horowitz, 2019). When dogs have a more positive cognitive bias, they are more likely to have better welfare.”

What does a German Shepard, a Borzoi, a Golden Retriever and a Staffie have in common?

They were all SUPER STARS at the Out and About Class today. At these classes, we go out and train in the ”real world”. It’s so difficult to walk nicely on leash, to focus and to relax when out so ofcourse we did a lot of training focused on that.

Oh my goodness! The cutest graduates today from the Pretoria Teenage Tyrant and Puppy School courses.

I am especially proud of all the progress the dogs have made- from walking without pulling, playing appropriately and focusing on their handlers while other dogs walk past.

We love Sniff South Africa. Can’t wait for many more.

We love all the JHB students! ❤️

Our class schedule in Randburg:
8am Puppy School
9am Teenage Tyrants
10am Fun Class
Sunday morning Group Walks

Then we have the new Out & About Classes where we actually do training in the real world! So we go out and train at coffee shops, vets, nurseries, etc. to train in real life. Here we apply everything the dogs have learn and practice skills like focusing on you and ignoring distractions, walking calmly on leash and past other dogs and people, recalling away from distractions, etc.

So if you’re looking for a calm, focused companion to take with on your coffee shops dates, market visits or anywhere in the real world- this is the class for you!
