Lovely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Google review received from the guardians of the gorgeous Seymour!

"Working with Lisa has been incredibly helpful for us and our rescue dog. After realising his behaviour wasn’t just about settling in, we sought Lisa’s support. She guided us to identify and reduce his triggers, adjust our home environment, and change how we interacted with him. We stopped overstimulating play, rewarded calm behaviour, and positively reinforced good interactions with dogs and people. These changes have made a significant difference, greatly reducing his reactivity. We’re so proud of the progress he’s made and truly couldn’t have achieved this without Lisa’s support. Thank you so much!"

I just spoke to a lovely owner of a 10-week-old Labrador puppy who is struggling with toilet training—and unfortunately, she’s been given some really concerning advice.

One “trainer” suggested withholding water except at mealtimes. Another said the puppy is being difficult because he’s an “alpha male” trying to dominate.

Let’s be clear:
A 10-week-old puppy is a baby. They are not trying to dominate you, and restricting access to water is not only inappropriate—it can be harmful.

Toilet training takes time, consistency, and understanding. Puppies at this age have very limited bladder control and need frequent opportunities to go outside, along with calm, positive reinforcement when they get it right.

If you’re struggling, please seek guidance from a qualified, evidence-based trainer.

At Minds Alike we are all accredited with the Animal Behaviour and Training Council (ABTC), our advice will always prioritise your dog’s welfare and use kind, effective methods that set both you and your puppy up for success.

There is a lot of outdated and incorrect information still circulating—so please, choose your trainer carefully.
