For the first time since launching Poppets Dog Training I will be taking some time to switch off, recharge and enjoy some family time.

If you’ve sent a message, it will be retrieved (deliberate pun 🐶) when I’m back working.

Until then…..remember, there are no bad dogs, just humans who haven’t booked a session with Poppets yet!

Thank you for your patience - I’ll be back soon, with fully charged batteries (and full treat pouches). 😊🐾

This bunch have had a chilled afternoon following their social walk.

Walks don’t need to be for hours and hours to get this result, it’s what you do on the walk.

We walked as a group (on lead), paddled in the brook and sat calmly, this was enough for these guys!

This little cutie has joined the Poppets family to build his confidence (it’s a big world out there).

We will also be working on his social skills as he isn’t quite getting it right when he sees other dogs.

If this sounds like your pup, drop us a message for how we can help you!😊🐾

Thank you PK9 Trail Treats, what a great competition prize!

He was being very polite but did enjoy some sausage!😋🐾

Training can sometimes be tough!

We can put a lot of pressure on ourselves to get things right.

Whilst it’s true, practise does make perfect…

If you’ve had a tough day…

Have things on your mind….

Don’t feel well….

Trying to get a training session in may leave you feeling worse.

Our pup pals are very intuitive, so when we aren’t on par, it can affect their behaviour. Especially the young or more sensitive souls.

On days like this, give yourself a break and have a lazy walk, one you will both enjoy, stress free and hopefully feel better afterwards.

So…..what is a lazy walk?

For me it was using an extendable lead….

It may be using a secure field, or heading out into the country so you can be on your own.

There should be no guilt in occasionally saying ‘I can’t do this today’.

We all have those days. 😊🐾

Did you catch the moment I jumped whilst filming this?!

We took advantage of the fair being in town to do some relaxed work around novel sounds.

Socialisation isn’t just something we do for puppies, it should be an ongoing process to build on the skills we started when our pups were young.

This chap did great, he wasn’t keen on the noise, he chose to move further away from it, and in doing so could remain calm.

Me in the other hand jumped out of my skin, then had a good laugh at myself 😂😂. Guess I need to work on myself more! 😊🐾

A new member to the family?….

Today I worked with this gang around the new baby in the family.

Whilst two of them have taken it in their stride, one chap is struggling.

The collie chap has come into the family from a rough start. We don’t know the full extent of the situation but we know he had a tough time with humans.

He is settling into his new family well but the new arrival is providing some challenges. Mr Collie chap isn’t keen on the array of noises and unpredictability of the new family member.

We are helping him by providing some time away from baby so he can properly relax, alongside very clear boundaries around the baby. Giving him a clear job and guidance around this will give him confidence and help him relax.

We need to look at the child/ dog relationship from both sides.

Teach all children boundaries around the dog, no grabbing/ leaning on for example.

Teach the dog the boundaries around the child. This is especially important for dogs with an unknown past.

Got a new baby in the family?

Need some guidance to help things run smoothly?

Drop me a message for more information. 😊🐾

How dare you walk across my drive….

Much to his disgust, barking does not make an ouch mouse (zoom in), move off your drive!😂🐾

Some great communication here, did you see it?…

The short haired dog isn’t very experienced in greetings, despite his size, he is still a puppy at heart. He desperately wanted a greeting but couldn’t maintain an air of calm, hence the helicopter tail!

For the face to face meeting he tried so hard, dropping down into an ‘I’m a little puppy’ stance to try and make friends.

What your thoughts on how the Leonberger responded to his approach? Drop your thoughts in the comments. 😊🐾
