An ice cream-like treat for your dog is the perfect reward to keep them calm and busy, especially when it's warm! 😋 Available now in our Natural Choice shop, these Billy and Margot ice treats are 100% dairy and gluten free, so easy to digest and kind on tummies.

The question is, which flavour would your dog go for? 💚💗

Can you help???
We are on the lookout and appealing to any local farm/landowners who have fields that we could use to host some of our Gundog classes. Our classes have expanded in the past year and we are now looking for some new environments/grounds to train in.
Please comment below if you think you can help us. Many thanks!

Kaye and rescue dog Sophie have grown into the most incredible team 🐾

They have a brilliant relationship and continue to learn and try new skills. As Kaye works during the week, they have ‘Sophie Saturdays’, where they go out and have fun together ☀️🐶

Kaye says Sophie gives her confidence and helps her do things she wouldn’t do on her own. They’ve given each other a new lease of life and become the best of friends 💕

We’ve been so impressed with their dedication to training through every challenge. They’re the absolute model of care, patience and hard work – and a real inspiration to us all 🙌

Thank you Kaye and Sophie for being so awesome – and for letting us share your incredible story 🥰

Yesterday we shared the story of Kaye and her rescue dog Sophie – a street dog from Serbia who’s been part of Kaye’s life for 5 years. It’s been a journey of learning, healing, and huge progress for them both 🐕‍🦺🧡

When Sophie first arrived, she didn’t know how to cuddle or play with toys, and she was wary around food. She also found being around other dogs really difficult – totally understandable after fending for herself on the streets.

Kaye and Sophie recommend the following at Sussex County Dog Training:
1. One-to-ones with trainers and behaviourists
2. Group obedience classes
3. On-lead walking groups with trainers for dogs that struggle with socialisation 🐕
4. Anxiety Seminar – especially helpful to understand Sophie’s body language
5. Advice from the Natural Choice shop team for food and treats 🍖
6. Fitting of a Perfect Fit harness
7. Q&A with Miranda and Jeff every Tuesday in My Dog Hub 💻
8. Use of the dog runs at the Centre

Kaye has taken it all in her stride – from not knowing what was ‘normal’ behaviour to Sophie completing her Foundation and Real Life Obedience Certificates, and even achieving the Bronze Kennel Club Good Citizen Award 🏅 Amazing for a dog with Sophie’s background!

Sophie might not be ready for off-lead group sessions just yet, but she’s now working towards her scentwork goals – with their sights set on the Levels Champion rosette at some point in the future 🌟

Thank you to Kaye for sharing her experience – click like to show your support ☺️ and look out for the final part!

5 years ago, Kaye welcomed a little rescue dog called Sophie into her life – and it changed everything 🐾

Kaye had been through some difficult times and wanted a dog to help her heal – a kind of therapy dog, someone to share life with. When she found out she’d been chosen as Sophie’s new owner, she was overjoyed ❤️

Sophie had been rescued from a shelter in Serbia, just in the nick of time. She’d had a tough start and didn’t know how to play, how to cuddle, and was reactive around other dogs – a survival instinct from her days on the street.

Sophie was Kaye’s first dog, and it wasn’t always easy. She didn’t know how to train a dog, or what was ‘normal’ in dog behaviour.

But 5 years on, they’ve made huge progress, and the bond between them is really special 💕

In the next post, Kaye shares how she’s trained and supported Sophie, and the milestones they’ve achieved together.

Like this post if you’ve found it inspiring, and feel free to share with anyone you know who has – or is thinking about getting a rescue dog 🐶💬

Is your dog bouncing off the walls? Acting up because they’re bored or full of energy? 🐶💥

They might need a job – something to channel all that drive and give them a sense of purpose 🐾🎯

Our gundog, agility, and scentwork classes are a brilliant way to:
✅ Build on their training
🏃‍♂️ Burn off energy
🧠 Keep them mentally sharp

Reduce unwanted behaviours, strengthen your bond, and have fun!

🗓️ Classes run in six-week blocks or you can book a one-to-one with our trainers.

Not sure yet? Come along for a £10 taster session – and if you love it, redeem it against your first class or one-to-one. Just give us a call to find out more and book.

It’s a sociable, supportive space and all dogs are welcome – even if this is your first time trying something like this 🐕🎾 We’re sure you’ll both love the challenge!

Is your pup or dog baffling you?! You need our Live Q&A every Tuesday at 7pm!

For example... why does my puppy wee in my friend’s dog’s bed when we visit, and how do we stop it? 🐶❓

Well... Puppies look for highly scented areas that feel safe and secure. When they're young, they prefer their own territory to avoid alerting predators. They also prefer somewhere absorbent – because who wants to splash their feet? 😂 Plus, their little bladders mean they need to go frequently.

How do we fix it?
1️⃣ Move the bed and feed the puppy in that spot, as dogs don’t like to toilet where they eat.
2️⃣ Watch her like a hawk 👀 – she’ll try to find another safe spot.
3️⃣ Keep taking her outside and reward her with high-value treats and lots of praise 🎉🐾

It will get easier as she grows!

Join us for the next Live Q&A on Tuesday at 7pm by joining My Dog Hub, for free. 🐕 Sign up here:
