🐾 “This is just puppy behaviour… right?” 🐾

Biting your hands
Grabbing clothes
Pulling on the lead
Ignoring you when it matters 😅

It’s all normal… but that doesn’t mean you have to just put up with it.

What you do now is what shapes the dog they become.

Because those “little things” now can turn into:
👉 Pulling you down the street
👉 Not coming back when called
👉 Struggling to settle in busy places

Or… you can get ahead of it early 💜

That’s exactly what my Puppy Classes are for.

We’ll help you:
✔️ Teach calm behaviour from the start
✔️ Build focus and engagement
✔️ Start recall properly
✔️ Create loose lead walking habits early
✔️ Feel more confident with your puppy

No judgement. No overwhelm. Just real support 🐶

If your dog wouldn’t come back in this situation… read this 👇🐾

Went for a walk on the beach on Friday and came across this 🦭

A seal just sunbathing on the sand.

Honestly… this is where recall really matters.

I called my dog once, he came straight back, and I put him straight on the lead so we could give it space.

No drama, no chasing — just a calm, safe situation for everyone.

This is why I always say recall isn’t just a “nice to have”.

It’s what lets you:
Let your dog off safely
Call them back when you actually need to
Avoid situations getting out of hand

If your dog:
– comes back when it feels like it
– ignores you outside
– or is great at home but not on walks

that’s usually what we work on first in 1–1s.

Puppy classes are back in York 🐾

If you’ve just got a puppy and you’re in that stage of
“why are you biting everything and not listening at all”

you’re definitely not the only one.

I’ve got a new course starting soon and it’s basically all the stuff people struggle with early on

getting them to focus, starting recall, walking nicely on the lead, and just generally feeling a bit more in control.

It’s held at Huntington community centre and I keep the groups small so everyone actually gets help.

Classes start on the 16th of may and run for 6 weeks

If you want the details just message me
