I've had such a lovely day getting to know this handsome fella, Bertie, before his Pawrents wedding on Thursday.
Familiarisation meetings in the lead up to a big event are hugely rewarding for the dog, owner and us chaperones too.
Making that connection can take time but is invaluable in helping the big day go to plan. 🥰
In Berties familiarisation walk today
we .......
Walked nicely (especially down hill) cheers for no dragging Shirley 😅
Practised Leave - With a dead frog found in the middle of the path 🐸
Socialised with 2 GSD's whilst catching a runaway collie at the same time(so glad Badger liked me shaking my treat bag at him)🤣🤣🤣
Completely ignored 2 deer that clearly saw him but didn't want an introduction 🦌🦌
And Finally,
worked out he is not too fussed for Pedigree beef and cheese mini's lol 🤣🤣
All in a day's work for a wedding chaperone! Bertie is a total star and "completely conked out" after his session 💤💤💤
That's us ready for Thursday’s celebrations.
Tell us in the comments—what is your dog's ultimate, high-value treat that never fails? 👇
