šŸŒ… Saturday morning group class is always such a pleasure. Itā€™s a place where you can learn new and fun things to do with your dogs.

At the end of the day, learning the basics is just the very start.

The more you do with your dogs throughout their LIFE (not just puppy development!!!!!), the happier they will be and the greater your relationship will grow and thrive.

šŸ• Anyone looking for a medium level mali, look no further.

Ivy definitely has Malinois traits but has lived a domesticated life before coming to the shelter (meaning she can switch off!!) She would suit an active owner or family that can give her daily exercise and a loving home.

Contact Paws and Claws Refuge and Boarding Centre - Port Douglas to go and visit this beautiful girl.

šŸ¶ The Puppy Development Class was in action last night and they are all looking great!

Restrained recall are always a part of our sessions and last night they all succeeded in pairing it with a sit.

šŸ•You have a high drive dog in Port Douglas and limited time to meet their needs, this is where things start going wrong.

Pulling.
Destructive behaviour.
Canā€™t settle.

Itā€™s not random. Itā€™s unmet drive.

My spring pole sessions are designed for busy owners who still want a well-behaved, satisfied dog.

āœ” Pick up & drop off available within 15k radius
āœ” Short, high-output sessions
āœ” Built for dogs that need more and love to play tug

This isnā€™t daycare.
This is structured work that actually makes a difference.

Limited spots each week.
DM SPRING to book your session.

šŸ¶Lunging and pulling isnā€™t just ā€œpuppy behaviour.ā€

Itā€™s a dog thatā€™s learned the environment matters more than you.

Last nightā€™s puppy development class had the puppies working around real distractions and still choosing their handler when called.

No repeated commands. No bribing. No chaos.

This is what happens when you train engagement and recall properly.

Do you want to learn how?

My next Puppy Development Class intake is open soon.

Message me for more information or check the link in the bio.

2 trials over 2 nights.

Same result!

Koda took 1st in Rally Novice both nights (94/100)
Raya took 1st in CCD both nights (93/100)

First and second ever obedience trials and they came out consistent, clear and did amazingly.

Every point we lost? Me. I am always the problem šŸ˜…

Couldnā€™t be prouder of them šŸ’›šŸ’™

Iā€™m out here running for my life and Bundyā€™s barely getting startedā€¦

CaniX is one of the easiest ways to actually work your dog.

Burns energy, builds drive, and gives them a proper outlet.

Who else gets humbled by their dog? šŸ˜‚ šŸ™‹šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø

POV: your dog gets stuck

A) rush in and save them
B) step back and let them figure it out

Most people pick Aā€¦ and then wonder why their dog canā€™t cope with anything.

I chose B.

No panic. No babying. No rushing to fix it.

Because every time you step in too early, youā€™re teaching your dog they need you instead of teaching them to think for themselves.

Confidence isnā€™t built from being babiedā€¦
Itā€™s built in these exact moments.

Let them try. Let them problem solve. Let them work through it.

Thatā€™s how you build a dog that can actually handle life.

If your dog struggles with even small challenges, itā€™s not ā€œjust their personalityā€ā€¦ itā€™s something you can fix.

ā€” and thatā€™s exactly what I help owners do.
