Katie and Jessie enjoying some downtime backstage at princess pavilion.

It’s not all cuddles in between stage appearances, they need rest too and this is why we have been attending so many rehearsals, so they could desensitise to the loud music and all the equipment and running around backstage.
I’ve used pet remedy to help them relax and they have a natural calming remedy in the afternoon should they experience any stress

Practice, reward and repeat to create the behaviours you are working towards in any situation with your dog 🥰

Bringing home a new puppy? 💙

The first few weeks are full of excitement, cuddles... And plenty of challenges too!

If you're feeling overwhelmed, you're not alone. Every puppy learns at their own pace, with a little patience, consistency and plenty of positive reinforcement, they'll soon start to find their paws.

Need advice about your puppy's health, behaviour or training? We are always happy to help.

Settling in a busy area with lots of people, noise, PA system, children, birds of prey and many dogs (not many dogs at the point where I videoed lol) isn’t easy for many dogs.

And that’s why training in busy areas when our dogs are young is important.

Just a few mins here and there in busy areas, a training classes teaching settling and early socialisation means you can have a dog like this who can cope with busy situations.

I would prefer to always walk my dogs on quiet paths, beaches, woods and fields but family life takes me and my dogs up all sorts of interesting places so I have to make the effort to keep up with training my dogs in busy surroundings.
This means that I have a dog with me at an event who can just lie down, without being asked on a loose lead while I wait for family who are in a food queue.

I don’t need to give him treats or toys, just praise and affection as he’s learned the skills.

There are lots of fantastic trainers who can take your dog to high levels of agility, scentwork and other amazing dog activities.. that’s not what I do..
I support humans and teach them how to create happy confident family pets that are easy to manage when out and about. Please do reach out if you would like to work with us to create a happier calmer family pet 🐶

Just 2 days to go before Katie and Jessie’s stage debut!

First tech rehearsal last night getting used to the lights and the live band and some new props.
They have built great friendships with the cast members and crew and are so excited to see everyone back stage.
They also seem to be backstage therapy dogs where the cast and crew come and sit and chat and stroke them in between scenes.

How do you walk yours? 😂
For me it’s a bit of both and it depends on how much time we have and how many of my dogs I’m walking as the oldies need lots of sniffy peemail stuff but my younger 2 and I would rather just keep walking!
