🐾 I've been working with Belle and her mum Charlotte for a while now, helping Belle with her anxiety with people coming to the house and reactivity around other dogs.

This week, I was so proud of them both. During our session, Belle stayed calm and relaxed around my dog Charlie, who she had never met before, she even managed to approach and have a sniff without reacting.

That's huge. It's still a journey, and there is still work to do but by focusing on the why, not just the behaviour of barking and lunging, she can feel safer and more confident. Well done to Charlotte for putting in the training and having the patience to work on this with Belle.

If you're struggling with your dog's reactivity or anxiety, and you'd like to understand the reasons behind their behaviour, and help them learn to manage better, message me on 07364 108321 as I would love to help! 🐾

I had a lovely day yesterday doing 121 sessions with my puppy class puppies and also meeting little Moose.

I visited little Moose to help his Mum and Dad with his frantic biting and mouthing. This is normal puppy behaviour but sometimes it becomes too much and whatever you do nothing works. Its like having a very angry land shark!

Moose's mum and dad did a great job and its fab to hear that he is managing alot better and is a lot calmer.

If you have a very mouthy puppy or just feel overwhelmed by your pups behaviour message me on 07364 108321 so I can help!🐾🩷

Today I had the pleassure of a 2nd visit with goegeous Frenchie Blu.

Blu's mum Emily contacted me back in September as Blu was very reactive on a walk. Life had become very restrictive as Emily couldn't walk him on her own anymore or take him on family days out. He was also very sensitive with handling at home and particularly at the vets.

On my visit I could see that Blu was an anxious boy and didnt particularly enjoy his walks, the world was a scary place. We worked alot on helping Blu to change the way he felt about life, lots of exercises to help him relax, build his confidence and enjoy life again. Most of this was done at home but very quickly changed how Blu felt on a walk. He was calm, relaxed, sniffing and wasnt reacting to dogs and people on his walk. Emily was able to enjoy walks again with Blu.

On my visit today, as Blu has improved so much we started adding extra areas to his walk and also worked on handling to help make grooming trips and vets trips less stressful for him.

I am so proud of how Blu has improved, his family have worked so hard on the journey to helping him to become a happier more relaxed dog and eventually go on days out with them. This is why I love my job and I am so lucky that Emily, Blu and family chose me to help them on this jorney 🩵

If you feel frustrated, and struggle to walk your dog due to reactivity or anxiety then please get in touch. Contact me on 07364 108321 for a free 15 consultation 🐾
