Last week was the final week of the current super sniffers course 🐾

Dogs and humans were challenged with blank searches and showed how their skills had progressed over the last 5 weeks to now have the confidence to trust when their dog is saying there’s nothing there! 🥳

Let me know if you’d be interested in an introduction to scent course over the next few months 🐕🐾

Last night saw the final week of our APDT Good Companion Puppy award class 🥇

Rosie, Figg, Boo and Duncan and their people all worked hard and showed they are well on their way to being good companions already achieving their Puppy Award with flying colours 🐾 🐕

We’ve just enjoyed a few days away in Scotland at a Heelwork to music show, where Sol was placed 5th and 2nd in his classes 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Being away meant lots of exciting places to walk, and for Ghillie and Dotty they love exploring and having adventures! What are some of the skills they need to be able to do this safely and in a way that I can enjoy it?

🐾 Excellent and reliable response to name and their recall cue, which means I can let them off lead in new places confident that they will come back.

🐾 Focus on me and ability to walk nicely on lead and check in with me around distractions, which means for the road sections of new walks we can do this easily.

🐾 Settling on lead out and about - allowing for those all important pub and cafe stops when needed!

What have you and your dogs been up to this weekend? 😃🐾

23/05/2025

🐾Do you want to have a well behaved dog who is happy, confident and relaxed in society and at home?

🐾A dog who can focus on you, rather than other dogs and people?

🐾One who has excellent recall, walks nicely on the lead and doesn’t jump up to greet people?

If so, our next course is for you! 🐾

🐾 5 week Foundation Good Companion Class, starting Thurs 19 June at 6.30pm

Over the 5 week course we focus on teaching and progressing life skills, basic obedience (including lead walking and recall) and good manners, as well as providing appropriate socialisation and confidence building exercises. All of our training is positive and reward based, and based on the most up to date, scientific evidence.

Max. 5 dogs per class to allow for plenty of individual attention. Only suitable for dogs who are able to work in a group environment. Ideal for those who want to progress their training to develop a well behaved and happy dog.

£95 for 5 week course. Please contact [email protected] or direct message this account for more information or to book your place.

Tonight saw the return of some lovely clients for some scentwork fun! 🐾

Dash, Hector, Sammy, Thomas and Zach all sniffed their socks off… and their handlers worked pretty hard too 😉 Team work at its best! 🥰

20/04/2025

Happy Easter to all of our clients, old, new and yet to be discovered yet! I hope you have a lovely restful weekend with your dogs - let me know if you’re managing to fit in any training time, or if you’re choosing to have some downtime with plenty of chocolate for you and walks for your pups! 🐣

🔔 Puppy and Scentwork classes starting on 24 April are fully booked already 🐕🐾

For those who missed out, keep your eyes peeled for some one off Saturday workshops!

Alternatively, I currently have the capacity to take on a couple of new 121 clients, so if please get in touch for more information on this service 🐾

At Crufts Sol and I did some demos on the APDT - Association of Pet Dog Trainers stand, including how to start teaching some tricks like spin and twist 🐕🐾

Lovely to see this video being shared to help raise awareness of reward based training. Watch this space for new class dates coming soon 📅🐾❤️

Crufts 2025 💚

The maddest but most brilliant 4 days.

Sol came along to demo on the stand and I couldn’t have been prouder of him. Like last year he coped with the atmosphere brilliantly - totally unfazed walking around the crowds and completely focussed on me when I needed him to be 🧡

A great reminder of building solid foundations with young dogs to be able to switch off and focus within short spaces of time. Drop us a message if you’d like to book a 121 training session 📧

06/03/2025

An early 3.45am alarm for us to set off to today! I’m not sure Sol is feeling it just yet… 🫣🤣🧡

Happy Sunday everyone 😊

Just trying to gauge interest… if I was to put on some regular classes on a Thursday evening, what would people prefer? I’m thinking possibly Scentwork, APDT Good Companion awards and/or Tricks … pop me a message or comment below and I’ll see what I can do 🐕🐾

01/03/2025

Sol and I are looking forward to demoing on the APDT stand in Hall 5 on Saturday and Sunday at Crufts this year 🐾

Saturday we will be doing tricks and Heelwork to music games - showing how to introduce basic moves that will also help with general training 🐕

Sunday we will be showing off some of the skills needed for the Good Companion Awards. These are a great way of progressing foundation skills and are something I will be looking to offer in classes moving forwards - probably on a Thursday evening!

Hopefully see some of you there! 🐕🐩🐾
