Hopefully we inspired some to work with dogs!

Alfie and Lola join our pack and have completed their training.
Well done to Mum and dad for putting in a lot of work to help these anxious doggies.
They still have more of a journey to go with some reactivity issues but are well on the way.
Awesome work!

Ok I'm gonna say it. (And probably get flack for it)If a trainer needs to use a head halti, chain collar, shock collar, slip lead, prong collar then please question why they need too use those tools? After working with over 350 dogs, ive never had to use any of those. All my clients put the training time in and dont rely on tools.
And do the research into how these items can affect your dogs emotions and your bond.
And yes I work with large breeds, reactive, aggressive, anxious and the calm.
Just prompting you to question your trainer, or one you are looking at booking, and ask why they need to use these tools when many other qualified people dont!

Ruby has now completed her training with Power Pooches. She has some anxiety around people and we helped her build up her confidence.

Ruby is a changed pooch.

Part of the work involved helping mum and dad relax and allow Ruby to make decisions. Awesome work by all!

Can your dog resist an open tub full of food if you leave the room?

Watch as Starlight and Orion practice impulse control and do just that.

Sasha & Jake

From Jake: I was lucky to adopt Sasha from the lost dogs home 1st June 2020. I went through deep depression and anxiety during the first lockdown. Living alone, working from home and being over 50kms away from the nearest family member, I knew I needed some unconditional love to come my way.

After putting in countless applications for adoptions of a furry friend, I was offered to home Sasha for a few weeks. Just to give her some support and help. Sasha had been in and out of the home a few times and has separation anxiety.

We also found some other issues of a fear of other dogs from a distance and anxiety. I instantly connected with her, having adhd, anxiety and PTS myself, I could relate to her. On the second night at home, she was already taking over my bed.

There was no way I could give her up so I adopted Sasha. Since then we have been working on her anxiety issues. I have a trainer, dog behaviorist, trying all types of natural remedies, patience and training. We need to go out 2 - 3 times a day.

There was a set back when we were attending the local park, knowing it was Dog on leash and we could train without too much worry, however some residents brought their dogs off leash. This was rough as a new doggy daddy every time I see Sasha stressing and in fear my adhd kicks in and I defend her.

After an incident where I was assaulted by a dog owner who frequently let his dog off leash, even in the local streets, this set back Sasha’s training by weeks and a new fear has emerged.

I needed a new distraction for both of us.

Personally, I love dressing up and years as an entertainer, plus my affinity with Marvel and Disney, I wanted to turn things around and make us happy again.

So we started our dress up walks.

I have found a difference and new strength in Sasha. She still has a long way to go and continues to check under bushes, behind fences, in driveways looking for dogs. She will bark at dogs and even shapes that are similar (small children/prams/bags) from a distance and do the doggy lunge but up close she really just wants to play.

Her bark is extremely loud but then she is a Jack Russel x Dachshund. But it is just that, a bark. We do try and avoid where other dogs maybe and usually walk th other way if we see an on coming dog.

Over the next few weeks we are starting on anti anxiety medication and a more thorough training routine, so hopefully this will see a bigger change in Sasha.

For me personally, dressing up and seeing the locals smile, wave or laugh makes me feel amazing and is helping my own anxiety during these tough times.

I hope you can see that we only mean to share some happiness, even if Sasha has a bark (and me sometimes!) it is not meant as hurtful. We just want to share some smiles and a wave!

So enjoy our dress ups, videos, pictures, and if you see us, give us a wave - Jake & Sasha
