A big welcome to Bonny 👋

Bonny, the 8-week-old Biewer Terrier, has been working through her Puppy Starter Programme following a Pre-Puppy Home Visit with her new "mum".

Bonny is beyond lucky to have been chosen by such a dedicated lady. Thanks to the emphasis placed on ensuring she felt safe in her new environment from the get-go, she has settled in beautifully. The benefits of this have been shown with her sleeping throughout the night and being comfortable when left in her pen for short bursts whilst chores are completed.

Prior to her first walks, she has been carried around in a sling to gain exposure to the outside world, and has had experience of walking around the garden with walking aids. This is going to be essential for her to be confident during walks long-term, as she will be next to a walking stroller.

Now that she has settled and come out of her shell more, we have begun diving into key life skills. Bonny has now learned Sit, Lie Down, Drop and Bed, and we will begin adding in further skills to ensure she continues to be the perfect companion.

Well done Team Bonny for a fantastic start 👏

A MASSIVE congratulations to Jesse for finishing his Fear Around Dogs Programme 🥳

I have been working with Jesse over the summer to help him overcome his fear, with his mum describing his response to dogs as "terrified" prior to us starting. If he met one either indoors or outdoors, he would want to be "picked up, will run and scream if not".

Well, what a HUGE U-turn we've had!

His mum left me this lovely feedback about their experience 👇

"I can’t recommend Natasha enough. Our 5 year old was absolutely terrified of dogs and the difference in just 8 weeks is amazing. He’s able to walk a dog on a lead, give them treats, play fetch. It’s night and day. We can’t thank her enough for her help."

I am so proud of Jesse, he smashed it out of the park 💪

A big welcome to Vinnie 👋

Vinnie, the 8-year-old Boston Terrier, has been working through his Adult Dog Coaching Programme focused on...

😤 Reactivity Towards Dogs and Some People (including dogs on TV)
🐿 Prey Drive
🚗 Calmness During Car Travel
🏃 Recall
🦮 Lead Walking

Vinnie didn't have the best start to life, having been bullied by the other Bostons in his old home and crated most of the time due to this. He has been with his family for 3 years now, but the impact of this experience has led to him not being able to socialise with other dogs and a very pent-up reaction upon seeing them.

He is absolutely smashing his training, with an ever-increasing threshold when seeing dogs, and having two experiences now of being able to remain calm whilst stopped with a dog a few metres away! He has also increased his focus on his people overall in and out of the home, which is in turn improving his lead walking and prey drive 👏

Well done Team Vinnie for all your progress so far!

A MASSIVE congratulations to Noah for finishing his Fear Around Dogs Programme 🥳

I have been working with Noah over the summer to support him with overcoming his fear, with his mum describing his response to dogs as "terrified" prior to us starting. Not only this, but if a dog were to approach him, he would "scream, be visibly scared, want to be carried".

Now, well, I think that huge grin says it all!

I couldn't be more thrilled with this incredible feedback from Noah's mum 👇

"Natasha’s Fear Around Dogs programme was invaluable for us. My son is 6 and was terrified of dogs - he would see a dog on the street and jump up onto me to feel safe. Over the past 8 weeks, my son has developed a greater understanding of dogs and their behaviours, and even built up the confidence to give a dog a treat, play fetch, and stroke, all thanks to Natasha’s help. Would highly recommend to anyone who has a fear of dogs or needs help with their child’s fear. Thank you!!!"

I am so proud of Noah for diving into the learning (despite being on summer break!), pushing himself out of his comfort zone between sessions, and being absolutely incredible with Jasmine.

To finish off our final session with him giving me a big hug and thanking me absolutely melted my heart... not to mention the cards he and his sister made for me 🥹 To say this service is rewarding is an understatement!

I can't wait to see him again in a month to touch base and hear about how he's been getting on 🙌

A big welcome to Jersey 👋

Jersey, the 8-week-old Golden Retriever, has begun her Puppy Starter Programme focused on "all things puppy".

Jersey is a very lucky pup, with her family booking my Pre-Puppy Package. This included a Zoom call a month before she arrived home, and a home visit a couple of weeks prior to ensure they were fully prepared for her arrival.

This was particularly useful as they have two young children in the home, and wanted to know how to set up the space to give Jersey the best chance of success. By setting up "Jersey's Bedroom" early on, this allowed the kids to learn to respect this space without the distraction of a puppy to contend with!

Thanks to a truly remarkable breeder - a very rare find - Jersey is already confident and well-rounded in many ways, and this is making training her an absolute joy. She clearly loves the learning process, and has excellent problem-solving skills. These often don't come naturally, and having a breeder who knows what they're doing and facilitates the development of problem-solving skills early on makes all the difference!

With the Pre-Puppy Package, they have 8 sessions to allow plenty of time for us to build up solid foundations, whilst also have fun advancing core life skills and practising in different environments to ensure long-term reliability. I can't wait to see how she does once out of the home 💪

Well done Team Jersey for an incredible start!

🏃 Rapid Recall 🏃

Dotty, Wren, Mabel and Wanda have been progressing well on their Rapid Recall journeys!

To get them off on the right track, we worked on...
✅ Focus around distractions
✅ Utilising the right rewards
✅ Providing clarity to recall words
✅ Visual recall
✅ Polite greetings

I am so impressed by how all of these pups are improving each week. Both them and their humans are really getting stuck into the learning, and are having a lot of fun on the way!

Well done to you all for fantastic progress each week 👏

A big welcome to Ozzy 👋

Ozzy, the 8-week-old Dobermann x Dutch Shepherd, has begun his Puppy Starter Programme focused on "all things puppy".

As he will clearly become a big dog in a house with 3 young boys and an eldery dog, we're cracking on with the core foundations and life skills necessary to ensure he's set up for success and given clarity on where the value lies. Hint: it's with all four of those massive paws firmly on the ground!

Well done Team Ozzy for all your progress so far 👏

Congratulations to Daisy, Dizzy, Dante, Yuki, Mabel, Oaty, Pedro, and their people for completing The Family Dog puppy class 🥳

Every single one of these pups and their families have made incredible progress throughout class. It was wonderful to see them put their learning to the test around a range of distractions during their final session, and watch the pups enjoy a well-earned play at the end!

Despite the rain for the second group, they all worked through it beautifully and the pups managed to maintain focus incredibly well despite getting wet 💪

Well done all - you smashed it 🌟

Well done all for a brilliant start 👏

A big welcome to Raia 👋

Raia, the 1-year-old Poodle x Shih Tzu, has begun her Troublesome Teens programme to help her settle into her new home.

During her programme, we will be covering...
🫡 Basic Obedience
😇 Settling In the Home
🦘 Jumping Up at People/Furniture
👧 Calmness Around Her "Sister" (and Vice Versa!)
🏃 Recall
🦮 Lead Walking

Raia is a super switched on pup, who has already aced Lie Down and "Off" over the week. Her "sister" is also making terrific progress, learning to not handle Raia during training and remembering to only do one-hand strokes instead of scooping her up for a cuddle.

It is always beautiful to see a bond growing between children and their dogs, however it is essential they learn to respect them as the individuals they are to foster a mutually enjoyable relationship long-term. Helping children achieve this is one of the highlights of this job 🩵

Well done Team Raia for a fantastic start!
