Treasuring the simple but special moments…

Just like dogs do 🧡

I love training recall!

Here is Koda around 5/6 months old disappearing into the hedge doing what his breed does best! But I need to be able to ensure he’s safe by coming straight back to me at all times.

Here I was working on distance AND distractions since he was out of sight and clearly following a scent.

The best way I train a recall is on a whistle since I know the cue will always sound the same and can travel further than my feeble voice! And of course, a very high valued treat or item to always reward this behaviour.

But, this does not mean my ultimate goal has been achieved… it’s only in this moment in time.

Continuing to train in all environments, including training back in familiar places like their home will ensure the behaviour stays strong 🐕

A lovely home visit to see a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel…A breed I don’t see very often!

Bruno has been settling into his new home and his family want to make sure the small issues they are experiencing now, doesn’t get out of hand.

Very wise!

We covered recall, good manners and preventing jumping up from being rehearsed and generally building up his confidence and focus around the owners when outside on walks.

Great session 😃 🐕

What a week!

It’s brilliant the weather is cooler and I have managed to see new clients as well as ongoing clients this week. Luckily escaping the rain each time we trained.

After finishing up with my last client of the week, I walk my own dog Koda and we get absolutely and utterly soaked! He did not know what to make of it and looked like a drowned weasel 🤣

Here is a good looking respectful photo of one of my ongoing clients Border Collie making great progress around cafe areaa.

…and yes, my very own..drowned….weasel looking sorry for himself!

Have a great bank holiday everyone! 😃

Practicing loose lead walking is a favourite of mine.

…especially when you have such a cute happy face looking up at you and we are both just enjoying the moment 😍

Well… what have we here!

A cone that’s not up right 🤦‍♀️

This is where you can get fearful behaviours if your pup hasn’t come across this ‘particular’ environment before and it’s sooo minor, yet important for dogs to take the time to check it out!

Koda decides to pretend to sniff a rock whilst eyeing up the ‘upset cone’ (This is a displacement behaviour - similar to us in social situations if we are unsure, we might hide behind our phones) before going to check it out by stretching (often seen when dogs are anxious around people and unsure whether to greet or not) and then zooming away due to the built up adrenaline kicking in - Fight or flight!!

Fascinating 10 second video 🤓

Training around gunshot noises!

If you turn your volume up, this actually sounds like fireworks. We started further away initially so not to startle him and then closer once comfortable.

Koda will be doing gundog work so it is especially important he feels comfortable around bangs!

Although we do hope he isn’t this relaxed whilst working! 🤣
