Confession time…

As dog owners, we put so much pressure on ourselves to get everything right.

The perfect training plan.
The perfect routine.
The perfect dog.

But the reality?

Sometimes we’re tired.
Sometimes we’re frustrated.
Sometimes we need a break.
Sometimes we wonder if we’re doing enough.

And yes, even dog trainers feel all of those things too! 😮

Loving your dog doesn’t mean enjoying every moment.
Being a good owner doesn’t mean being perfect.
It means showing up, learning, adapting, and doing the best you can with the information, energy and resources you have right now!

If you’ve ever felt guilty for feeling overwhelmed, this is your reminder that you’re not alone 🫶🏻

I’d love to know, which slide resonated with you the most? 👇🏼

Your dog probably doesn’t need more training sessions…

They probably need more support between them.

Most owners don’t struggle because they don’t know what to do.

They struggle because they’re trying to implement training alone, second-guessing themselves, hitting setbacks, and waiting until their next appointment for help.

That’s exactly why I created my Behaviour & Training Programme.

Instead of seeing you once a week and hoping for the best, I provide ongoing support, video analysis, personalised guidance, and regular adjustments to your training plan.

It’s the closest thing to having a trainer in your pocket.

Whether you’re working through reactivity, recall, resource guarding, puppy training, lead walking, or everyday struggles, you’ll have support every step of the way.

Dear Formby Bubble:
AWARENESS/WARNING POST-
Warning to other dog/pet owners. Please keep an eye on your dogs. We took our 6 year old happy and healthy springer to Formby woods yesterday evening and sadly had to get him put to sleep this morning the vet believes he had ingested a poisonous substance his organs started failing him. The only place he could have ate it is in the woods there I would hate for anyone else to have to go through what we have the past 12 hours.

“I wouldn’t have them any other way.”

It’s something we hear all the time in the dog world and for many people, it’s true.

But I think we need to make space for another reality too because some dogs are hard work and quite frankly, we would love for them to be ‘another way’ 🤷🏻‍♀️

Not because they’re bad dogs. Not because we don’t love them. But because they come with challenges we never expected or dreamt of when we decided to bring a dog into our life.

Behavioural struggles.
Anxiety.
Reactivity.
Chronic pain.
Health conditions.
Lifestyle changes.
Cancelled plans.
Financial stress.
Heartbreak.

Sometimes we look at our lives and realise they look very different to the picture we had in our heads when we first brought our dog home.

And sometimes we grieve that.

That grief doesn’t make you selfish.

It doesn’t make you ungrateful.

And it certainly doesn’t mean you love your dog any less.

In fact, in my experience, the people carrying this grief are often the ones doing the most for their dogs.

The ones spending their evenings researching. The ones attending appointments. The ones changing their routines. The ones advocating when nobody else understands. The ones who keep showing up.

You can wish things were easier. You can grieve the life you imagined. And you can still love your dog with your whole heart ♥️

Those things can exist together 🫶🏻

Have you ever felt this way? 👇🏼

We often hear people say, “you get the dog you need.”

But I think sometimes we forget the other side of that.

Sometimes the dog gets the human they need.

The reactive dog who needs somebody willing to learn.

The anxious dog who needs somebody patient.

The medically complex dog who needs somebody prepared to advocate, adapt and keep searching for answers.

The dog in pain who needs somebody to notice the subtle signs.

The dog who struggles with the world and needs somebody willing to see things from their perspective.

Not every dog is easy.

Not every journey looks like we imagined it would.

But our dogs don’t owe us convenience.

When we welcome them into our lives, we take on the responsibility of meeting their needs, even when that means changing our expectations, routines, priorities or understanding of what dog ownership looks like.

The truth is that some dogs require us to grow.

To learn more.

To be more patient.

To become stronger advocates.

To show up for them in ways we never expected.

And while that journey can be exhausting at times, it’s also one of the greatest acts of love we can offer them.

So if you’re navigating behavioural challenges, health issues, chronic pain, disability, fear, anxiety or setbacks right now, please remember this:

Your dog isn’t looking for perfection.

They’re looking for somebody who won’t give up on them.

And maybe that’s exactly why they found you. ❤️

Always great to get out with other trainers and do some learning in-person!

Thank you to .pay and for a great seminar 🐕

It was lovely to catch up with and as always, and to meet and as well as lots of others! As a dog trainer, it’s not often we get to meet each other in person, so events and seminars like this are always lovely so we get to do that! 🫶🏻

Happy Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

As a lesbian-owned business, Pride Month is something that means a great deal to me personally.

At Bubba’s Dog Training, everyone is welcome. No matter your gender, sexuality, identity, ethnicity, religion, disability, background, or the dog you share your life with, you deserve to feel safe, respected, and supported.

Inclusivity isn’t something that exists just for Pride Month. It’s a value that sits at the heart of this business every single day. Creating a space where people can show up as themselves without judgement is incredibly important to me.

This year’s Pride Month feels especially important. Watching rights and protections come under threat in other parts of the world, particularly in the US, has been difficult. Closer to home, many LGBTQ+ people are also feeling an underlying sense of unease about the direction of public discourse and political conversations here in the UK. Whether that concern is shared by everyone or not, it’s a feeling that many in our community are carrying right now.

That’s why Pride remains so important. Not just as a celebration of who we are, but as a statement that LGBTQ+ people deserve dignity, safety, equality, and the freedom to exist without fear.

To my LGBTQ+ clients, followers, friends, fellow business owners, and allies: thank you for helping create a community where people feel safe, valued, respected, and accepted for exactly who they are.

Happy Pride Month 🏳️‍🌈

A little business update 👇🏼

Over the last few weeks, and since Crumpet’s injury, I’ve spent a lot of time reflecting on what I want life and business to look like going forwards.

As a result, I’ll be reducing the number of available in-person training slots each month, while increasing availability for my Monthly Virtual Training & Behaviour Programme 💻

Virtual support has become a larger part of the business recently and honestly, I’ve seen how effective it can be when owners have ongoing guidance, regular feedback and support in real time, rather than just a one-hour session every few weeks.

In-person training isn’t disappearing completely, but spaces will become much more limited going forwards.

Current availability:
🐾 Fully booked for in-person training until July
🐾 Only 2 in-person spaces remaining for July

I’ll continue to keep everybody updated in the shorter term regarding my return to regular in-person work while Crumpet continues her recovery 🫶🏻

Thank you all so much for the support, patience and understanding recently. It genuinely means the world to me and the dogs 🐕
