Huge, huge well done to this gorgeous boy and his wonderful family 👏🥰

This lad hated the car 😔
He wouldn’t go near it, and if the boot or door opened, he’d take flight. His family have been working so hard on gentle desensitisation, using kind, gradual techniques to help him feel safe again.

And today…he was happily jumping in and out, and even hopped in while his human mum and I were chatting, entirely on his own accord 🙌☺️

We take our time with this work because confidence can’t be rushed.
Moving at the dog’s pace means:

• they stay under threshold✅
• they stay in control of their choices✅
• their emotions genuinely change, rather than being masked or suppressed✅

That’s how we build real confidence, the kind that lasts ✨
We’ve still work to do but I just know he’s gonna ace it! 🥰

I’m so proud of this boy and his amazing family for trusting the process and showing him the patience he deserves 👏💛🐾

Just look at this beautiful fella! 🥰🐾

He’s had a few changes in his life recently, and his lovely family noticed some shifts in his behaviour. They reached out for support, not just to help him through it, but to understand what they could adjust too.

And honestly…he did amazingly in our first session 🙌
It’s such a lovely reminder that even slightly older dogs absolutely thrive with a bit of structure, reassurance, and the chance to learn something new. They never stop benefiting from guidance and connection 💛

Can’t wait to catch up with them all again soon 🐾☺️

Could you say no to a face like this? 🥰🐾

This gorgeous little girl had a session this week working on her ‘drop it’ cue, as she loves to ‘steal’ things now and then to start a cheeky little game with her humans 🤭

Her family have also been practising their loose lead walking, and they are absolutely acing it 🙌

Keep up the brilliant work beautiful girl, and a huge well done to her lovely family too 👏☺️🐾

Can anyone guess this beautiful boy’s breeds? 🤔🐾

This gorgeous lad is a much loved rescue who just needs a little extra support coping when he’s out and about 💛

He’s incredibly intelligent and did fantastically in our first session, calmly handling his triggers from a safe distance and checking back in with his humans beautifully. His family were so proud of him 🙌🥰
He certainly deserved his well earned sleep afterwards (pic2) 😴

They now have a clear, gentle plan in place, and I’m really looking forward to catching up with them again soon to build on this progress 😊🐾

☀️Quick client update☀️

Emails have now all gone out regarding this week’s sessions 📧

With the heat, dogs can feel the effects not just on the day, but the following day too. When their sleep is interrupted, their routines are a bit off, or they haven’t properly chilled out, they can feel out of sorts, our two definitely are this week, bless them!

Because of this, some sessions may need postponing so training stays positive, safe and productive for the dogs.

Please check your inbox’s and junk folders, and let me know what works best for you 🐾💛

Could you resist this little face 🥰🐾

I had the loveliest 1‑1 with this beautiful girl and her lovely family this week. They’ve got a few temporary changes happening at home, so they wanted to make sure she feels supported, understood and set up to cope confidently ☺️

We focused on helping her stay settled, spotting the early signs of overwhelm and giving her family simple, kind strategies to help her navigate the next few weeks with ease. She took everything in her stride and gave us some gorgeous moments of calm and connection 💛🐾

Just look at this gorgeous boy who wrapped up his programme this week 🎓🥳🥰

The progress he and his lovely family have made has been absolutely fantastic - so much patience, teamwork and consistency paying off in all the right ways. Huge well done, guys 👏💛🐾

We’ll still be keeping in touch so they can brainstorm, check in, or go through anything whenever they need.
Once you’re part of the K9ology family, you’re never on your own 🐾💛

How warm is too warm for our pooches? 🤔☀️🐾

With the weather set to heat up over the next few days, it’s the perfect moment to pause and check in on how rising temperatures can affect our dogs. Even when it doesn’t feel “that hot” to us, our dogs can struggle, especially flat faced breeds, older dogs, puppies and those carrying a little extra weight.

I’m resharing these helpful infographics from the RSPCA & Pet Plan to help guide you on safe walking times, early warning signs of overheating, and when it’s kinder to skip the walk and choose calm enrichment at home instead.
Keeping our dogs cool, comfortable and safe is always the priority 💛🐶

Benny Mahoney is your K9ology Player of the Week 🏏🐾

Young Benny starred in a win for the 6th XI on Saturday, ripping through the Basildon & Pitsea top order and returning figures of 5-26 from his 8 overs. He also helped the 6s over the line with a rapid 31* from only 16 balls, including 6 boundaries 🔥

Great work Benny and thanks to his player sponsor DeVines Accountants for their support over the last year 🤝
