🐾 Look at Lucy go! 🐶💚

Lucy has been working hard with Donna on her lead walking and focus, and it’s lovely to see the progress she’s making! 🥰

From being unable to walk on a loose lead to learning to slow down, pay attention and engage with her handler, Lucy is starting to understand what’s being asked of her.

It’s all about patience, consistency and celebrating those little wins along the way! 👏🐕

Well done, Lucy! We’re so proud of you! ❤️

🐾 Is your dog pulling on the lead, struggling to focus or finding walks a challenge?

At Gone To The Dogs, Donna offers training tailored to you and your dog, helping you build confidence, improve communication and enjoy your time together.

🐾 Fergus Update: What a difference five sessions can make! 👏💙🐶

When Fergus first started training with Donna, he was incredibly nervous around traffic and loud noises. Even walking near a busy road was a huge challenge for him.

Fast forward to his fifth session, and Fergus is now confidently making his way out of Ballyclare Park and walking along roads that would once have been far too overwhelming for him! 🚗🐾

We’re taking things slowly, at Fergus’s pace, and the progress he’s making is fantastic!

💙 Small steps, big achievements!

We’re so proud of Fergus and how far he’s come. A lovely reminder of what patience, consistency and positive training can achieve. 🥰

🐾 HUGH UPDATE: LOOK HOW FAR HE’S COME! 💚🐶

Our lovely hugh_thehusky is going from strength to strength with Donna at Gone to the Dogs! 🥹👏

After completing his first four training sessions in Ballyrobert, Hugh has now progressed to training in Ballyclare Park, where he’s just completed his sixth session! 🐕

We’re now working alongside Hugh’s owner, helping him build confidence, improve his focus and manage distractions in a busier environment.

And he’s doing brilliantly! 🌟

It’s so rewarding to see Hugh’s progress, from those early sessions meeting other dogs at a distance to now working positively in a public park. 💚

A huge well done to Hugh and his owner for all their hard work and commitment. We’re incredibly proud of you both! 🐾👏
