Can everyone share this post please thanks 🙏

A quick video i done this morning to show how easy the energy you carry transfers to your dog 🔋

Crazy dogs like Hector need the complete opposite to those 5 seconds i shown in the video. If i was to carry that excitement for a couple of seconds longer he would of been biting everything in sight - including me 🤣. When he first started his walks he'd get in that state as soon as we opened the gates and his long line would take a beating for a good 30 seconds (notice how he goes to grab it). Over time weve put rules in place and now find it much easier to switch him off 🤝

If you're crazy, your dog is crazy. If you're nervous, your dog is nervous. If you're confident, your dog is confident.

Dogs tune in to us in ways we cant even see, and having the correct energy has a massive impact on your dogs behaviour. Make sure you're leading the right way! 💯

A sad post this but recently lost two of our Doghouse OG's Ollie and Jack a few weeks apart from each other, feels like yesterday i took these pictures and looking back through them made me realise a few things.

1) How quick time passes.
2) How important pictures are.
3) How big of a part dogs play in our lives.

Seeing the dogs i first started with getting old and passing away hits different because my business wouldn't be what it is today without dogs like Ollie and Jack trusting me from the very start, and i take a lot of comfort in knowing the time we spent together we definitely made the most of.

Both lived amazing lives with amazing families and it was a pleasure to have them both involved in my own life in such a big way 💙

Rest easy boys 🙏

Last walk today for one of my Doghouse OG's Crumpet. Been a staple of my business for as long as i can remember and when you take a dog out for that long they start to feel like your own, so im gutted with this one 😶

Will be remembered for her iconic jumping in the van videos and also waiting with her head out the cat flap when im not there on time 🤣🤣

Been a pleasure Crumpet 🤝🫡💙

A picture I've been working towards for the past 3 months 📸....

I've been taking Luna out since January and anyone that follows my stories will know how anxious she was when she started with me. She had an unfortunate start to life - didnt leave the house for the first 6/7 months, missed out on a lot of key social skills in that time and also developed a lot of anxiety towards the outside world. I received a message from her owner explaining all of the above and that she just wanted to see Luna at ease with the world. I knew I had my hands full but I put a plan in place.

Step 1 was making her comfortable with me. We got her in for some solo walks to build her confidence up and to show her being outside isnt scary at all. Her first two walks she was reactive to almost every sound she heard and didnt move too far from my legs. The more walks i done the more independent she was getting, leaving my space to explore herself and becoming less reactive to noises, and after a couple more walks i knew she was ready for step 2.

Step 2 was making her comfortable with dogs. Lunas owner had told me she would go on the park and ignore all other dogs and it was quite concerning. This was because the environment was all wrong for a dog that has serious anxiety, too much going on and it was shutting her down. I picked Ron one of our spaniels to join Luna on her weekly walk, mainly because of his independance and confident personality which i was hoping would rub off on Luna. It took about 20 minutes for Luna to even acknowledge him, but once she did they get on like a house on fire and i knew we was getting somewhere 🔥

Step 3 was integrating her into a full pack. We'd put everything in place for her to go and thrive in a pack environment and she done exactly that 🤝. Watching her now in a pack of dogs to the one i took out in January is honestly like watching two different dogs and something i am proud of which i dont say often 😂 She still has major anxiety towards gates and doors, but were working on it and i wont be surprised if that is also a thing of the past in the next few weeks 🤞

Well done Luna and thanks to all my other dogs for helping us out 😎💙

A lot can change in a day 😂

Fudges first pack walk 😎🐶

Only managed a 3 or 4 second 'wait' with him on his two solo walks the past week, so seeing him wait with the pack for 5x longer shows how beneficial pack walks can be. We spend a lot of time being consistent with rules, so the foundations are always in place for the next dog to start and pick up good habits from the others 🤝

Welcome to the good life Fudge, you can stop watching us through the fence now 🤣
