Happy New Year from Dogskool! 🎉🐾

Thank you for all the support this past year. I am heading into the new year excited and motivated, with a brand new website launching very soon. Keep an eye out for that.

My diary is now open for new bookings, so if you are looking to get started with training or continue your dog’s progress, now is the time to get in touch.

Agility and Flyball classes are currently full, but waiting lists are open and moving, so please register your interest if you would like a spot when one becomes available.

Here’s to a year of learning, teamwork, and happy dogs. We can’t wait to train with you in the year ahead 🐕✨

The 2026 energy is building… are you feeling it yet?”

Between the leftovers and the lounging, there’s always a moment where the new year starts to creep in…

That moment of: “Right. What do I want next year to really look like?”
If you’re already dreaming up new routines, goals or plans for your dog — I’d love to know:

🐾 What’s one thing you’re changing in 2026?

Wanted to let you know I’ve opened up a few more 60 Minute Problem Solver online sessions before the end of the year, at a reduced price of £49 (instead of the usual £99).

There aren’t loads of spaces, but these sessions are a chance to have 60 minutes fully focused on you and whatever help you need with your dog.

This could be…

* Manners eg jumping up, hyperactivity
* Puppy problems
* Excessive barking
* Reactivity to dogs or people
* Aggression
* Pulling on the lead
* Recall

If you’re having problems, this is your chance to get some advice that could really turn the corner for you.

Whether you’ve booked in with me this year, supported my business, or simply followed along, I’m so grateful.

This time last year, I couldn’t have imagined how I’d restructure my business, how incredibly busy I’d be and how I’d plan something exciting for the new year (watch this space 👀).

To all of my lovely dog people, wishing you a peaceful, joyful Christmas. And a little reminder: your dog doesn’t care if the wrapping’s perfect. They just want you 🐶❤️ Wishing you and your dogs a calm, happy Christmas 🎄🐾

Thank you for trusting Dogskool over the years.

Christmas can be a time to reflect. Over the years, I’ve worked with hundreds (probably thousands!) of dogs, big and small, young and old, all different, all communicating in their own way.

If Dogskool has helped you and your dog, I’d love to know:

What changed after we worked together? 🐾

Never thought I’d find myself getting angry at Coronation Street for professional reasons!

This is a character saying he’s going to start a podcast about dog behaviour and goes on to talk about dog on dog reactivity. This character is a packer in a knicker factory. He’s grown up around dogs and I think the story goes that his parents had a dog kennels but he has no education, no qualifications and no experience of working in dog behaviour. In fact, his principal characteristic in the show is that he’s somewhat lacking in intelligence, to say the least!

This is everything that is wrong with the dog training industry. People with no education or qualifications giving awful advice to people who know no better. In this conversation, the 13 year old dog mentioned should firstly be checked for pain, given that approximately 70% of dog reactivity cases are found to have underlying pain as a factor.

I’ll be writing to the producers of Coronation Street to educate them about promoting dangerous practices!
