Hot weather is on it’s way! β˜€οΈπŸ₯΅ Please think about your dogs and get familiar with the heat advice from Petplan. Remember that the hot asphalt burns their pads β™¨οΈπŸΎ Do the hand test before taking them out for a walk. Instead of physical exercise, you can provide mental stimulation at home by playing nose-based games or teaching a new skill/trick. Please get in touch if you wish to chat about what activities are suitable for your dog on the hot days.

Thank you to and , all speakers and presenters for organising this amazing event yesterday. We have very much enjoyed learning and sharing experiences in a collaborative environment with fellow dog professionals. The day was packed full of very interesting talks and demonstrations: puppies, trick training, scent work, obedience, gun dogs, bite work, neuroscience and behaviour, canine CPR, physiology and equipment, Advanced Dog Ownership Initiative, dog law, nutrition and lots more. Fantastic day focused on dog welfare.

This little one was terrified of standing lawnmower. We have slowly built confidence on her terms. At first with the stationary mower, then with the wheel movement, and finally with a slow movement of the machine.
It was done on her terms and at her pace, with a lot of positive reinforcement and praise. Next session will start exactly the same, then with a stationary mower switched on but at the greater distance. Gradual careful exposure is crucial for building confidence around scary objects. Well done little one! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘
