More Than Just a Job ❤️

Last week, I sat down with Erin from HD8 Life CIC to chat about the real, deep impact that dog training can have - not just on the dog, but on the entire family.

Halfway through sharing a story, I broke down in tears.

In December 2023, Olivia called me. She had just adopted Grayson from a local kennel, full of hope and excitement. She imagined family walks to the park, holidays across the UK, weekends at Cannon Hall with the kids and Grayson by their side.

But very quickly, that dream began to fall apart.

Grayson was dog-aggressive - something the kennel had failed to mention. He reacted intensely to every dog he saw, and as his anxiety spiralled, he began redirecting on to his owners.

Still, Olivia and her family didn’t give up. They loved him too much to consider sending him back. So they rolled up their sleeves and got to work. Every day, for months. Training sessions. Meet Ups. Walks with Emily. Step by step, they helped Grayson find his calm - and his confidence.

And now?

Now, Grayson is everything they hoped he would be. They walk together, travel together, live together - fully, joyfully. He’s relaxed. Happy. Sociable. He’s their family in every sense of the word.

That transformation didn’t happen overnight. But it did happen - because they committed, and because training gave them the tools to make it possible.

This is what dog training can do. It’s not just about teaching commands or fixing problems. It’s about changing lives. For the dog, and for the humans who love them. My tears were happy ones, because his life now is one I dream of for all dogs.

I’m launching a new interview series where I sit down with my clients to share stories like Grayson’s - real journeys, real challenges, real victories. You’ll catch the highlights on social media, with full stories featured on our website.

I can’t wait for you to meet Grayson - and see just how far love, patience, and a little expert help can go.

Freyja 🐾

This girl has been SO deserving of her moment in the spotlight for so long and now is her time to shine.

In the words of her owner “Our biggest worry when we booked in for training with Freyja was that we wouldn’t be able to work through the issues and we would have to give her up 😢”

It dawned on me recently that so many times with clients it can be really hard for them to see their progress when they live it every day.

Freyja is unrecognisable now from where she started and that is testament to the people around her. This Saturday just gone, I got to see her properly in person and I was blown away.

Her family started with 1-1 sessions with me and have gone on to make full use of our incredible dog walking service with as well as attending client meet ups and our Saturday pack walksyou guys are really flying ❤️

Freyja is living the most fulfilling, fun life and their adventures and world is growing by the day.

Show Freyja and her family all the love in the comments and if your dog sounds like Freyja from a year ago, get in touch. We can’t wait to help ❤️

Nicola and Bo 🐾

Today, we had our session 3 and it was like meeting a whole different person and dog than in our first session.

Nicola adopted Bo late last year. He came with many issues and he grew into them as time went on. She just wanted to be able to enjoy her time with him and make the most of every day.

His reactivity to people and dogs was extreme but today, we have walked around a very busy Cannon Hall (offlead, out of control dogs a plenty) and he excelled. No reactions, no stress. Unthinkable 2 months ago..

They have taken full advantage of the community side of Lucky’s Paws and I am honestly over the moon with their progress together. There is more I know they want to achieve but for now, I want them to bask in where they started to where they are now.

Well done Nicola, I know how tough this year has been and I am so glad you chose to get in touch.❤️

A lovely morning meeting fellow trainer and friend Naomi over at Woodland Whisperers Dog Training Ltd

I keep my dog training circle of friends very small as I find this world quite toxic and negative so finding someone who is not only fab at what they do but utterly lovely as well is amazing 😍

Exciting things to come

The dog training world is a very toxic place full of arguments about who is right and who is wrong and honestly I’m not about that life! 🥴

I met with the wonderful Estelle from Lucky’s Paws today as we have some plans in the making for you guys - You’ll have to wait and see what’s coming! 😍

It is sooooo refreshing to sit down with another dog maniac like me and discuss all things dog with another trainer who shares the same ethics and values and is truly amazing at what she does - You don’t find that often! 🐶

Can’t wait for the next brew and catch up! Exciting times to come 😉🐾

THIS is what success looks like…..

This is what we hope and pray for when a client books in

We absolutely LOVE receiving updates and Ziggy’s owners have taken full advantage of our WhatsApp support between sessions.

THIS is where the magic happens.
THIS is where the changes are made.

Lauren and Mat were one of my first clients back from maternity leave (day 1 in fact!) and the change in Ziggy in that time has been immense.

They have faced lots of challenges and hurdles but we are seeing so much progress and I’m absolutely delighted!

His transformation video will be coming soon but here is just an overview of the hard work they have put in!

If you are looking for a trainer who supports you in between sessions as well as in them, drop us a message and let us see if we can help ❤️
