n the animals! (I'm hoping the animals will give me less back chat)

My family has always had dogs, always rescue and always with some quirk, foible or iidisioincrasy unique to that specific dog so, when I set up home in Dumbarton, I had no hesitation in heading to the Cat & Dog Home where I found my canine soul mate, Dexter. Now 4years old Dex started life with more hang ups than a double glazing Call Centre!! After 3 years together, he is now well on his way to the an Agility Star and Tulla, my cocker pup, will be starting soon. I love walking my dogs (and hopefully your dog)-I love the fun they have off the lead, I love seeing them run for the pure joy of it & I love seeing them ALL WAGGED OUT.

One of my favourite puppy class games. 🐾

Giving dogs choice helps us learn what they truly value, keeps rewards interesting, and reminds us that not every reward has to be top tier.

Different jobs deserve different pay cheques, and our dogs get a say in what goes on the menu. ❤️

🐶 Next Puppy Class starts 5th August
📍 Outdoor in Balloch
📅 5-week course

There’s always a moment.

Sometimes it’s ten minutes into the first session.

Sometimes it’s when I’m putting my shoes on to leave.

Sometimes it comes out in a rush.

But eventually people tell me the thing they’re really worried about.

The thing they were scared to say out loud.

And then they wait.

Not for advice.

For judgement.

And honestly?

I can’t help you with something I don’t know.

So you never have to hide the truth from me.

Because understanding your dog starts with understanding the whole story.

Not just the bits that feel comfortable to say.

🚨 The PAWLISE Challenge 🚨

After a recent crime spree hit Dumbarton, the PAWLISE Canine Tactical Unit was drafted in to assist.

Before being cleared for active duty, our four-legged officers had to complete the second PAWLISE Challenge, testing their detective skills under pressure. 🐾🔎

The good news? We now have a growing team of Dog Detectives on the case, with a few enthusiastic rookies still working their way through the academy. 🕵️‍♂️🐶

☀️ Dogs always come first ☀️

Please be really careful with your dogs over the next few days. Heatstroke can happen frighteningly quickly, and it’s simply not worth the risk.

As frustrating as it is, I’ve made the decision to cancel Tuesday night classes and Wednesday morning mantrailing this week. It’s inconvenient, it means rescheduling, and yes, it costs me money, but none of that matters more than the welfare of the dogs.

You never think it’ll happen to your dog, until it does.

The walks, training sessions and trails can wait. Your dog’s health can’t.

Stay safe, keep them cool, and remember that doing less for a couple of days is far better than taking chances. 🐾❤️

One of my favourite ever clients got out of the car for their first session and before they even said hello they blurted out:

“I’m really nervous about this. I don’t know this is gonna go!”

And honestly?
I loved that.

Because now we could stop pretending.

We did not need to spend half the session making awkward small talk while they secretly panicked about being judged.

I could just say:
“Right. Tell me what you’re worried about.”

A lot of people are nervous before behaviour sessions.

They worry:

* they’ll be blamed
* they’ve ruined their dog
* they should have fixed it already
* they’ll be told they’re doing everything wrong

But behaviour work is not about being perfect.

It is about learning.
Learning about your dog.
Learning about behaviour.
Learning about stress, emotions, environment and communication.

It is about figuring out what is happening and working out how to move forward.

You do not need to arrive with the perfect words.

You do not need to pretend everything is fine.

You are allowed to say:
“I’m overwhelmed.”
“I don’t know what to do.”
“I’m worried this is getting worse.”

Honestly?
That’s usually where the real work starts.

Not everyone wants puppy class.

Some people just want somebody they trust to say:

“Yes, that’s normal.”

“Yes, I’d do the same thing.”

“No, you’re not ruining your puppy.”

“Don’t panic.”

Because there is a lot of pressure when you’ve got a puppy.

And sometimes having somebody in your corner makes all the difference.

That’s what puppy one-to-ones are really about.

Not perfection.

Just support.

Most of the dogs I meet aren’t giving their owners a hard time.

They’re having a hard time.

There’s a difference.

And understanding that difference changes everything.

I’ve never really been interested in creating robot dogs. 🐾

The magic of dog training for me is the moment you see them THINK.

There’s a tiny little moment where they suddenly realise:
“WAIT… I know what you’re asking me to do.”

And if you’re paying attention, you can actually see it happen.

That’s the bit I love.

I like dogs with personality.
I like dogs who offer behaviours.
I like dogs who try things and problem solve and use their initiative.

Because they’re not robots.
They’re individuals.

And honestly? That’s what makes them brilliant.

Wednesday Club 🐾

Wednesday Club was out enjoying another great session yesterday with Monty, Mavis, Rosie and Murphy.

Perfect terrain for practising a bit of camo and putting those noses to work. 🌿🐾

As always, plenty of fun, teamwork and happy dogs!

Can I let you into a secret?

I think your dog is awesome.

Not because they’re perfect.

Not because they never bark, pull or make questionable life choices.

But because they’re trying.

And honestly?

I think you’re pretty awesome too. 🐾❤️
