BOWOW DTC

BOWOW DTC Bowow Dtc was established in 2017, run by Louise Ball who will also be your trainer.

The aim is to keep training fun for both you and your dog, and for you both to get the most out of the classes, so with that in mind, class numbers are kept small.

Many congratulations to Kay and Aggie on being presented with your Ky Da Training Bronze Plus award today. And several Silver exercises ticked off too, you are working so incredibly well together. 🤩

Our 121's aren't all about training, we also try to do some fun things. Today, the weather wasn't great so we looked at working on a 'touch' on the agility contact equipment, i.e. having Aggie stop with just her two front paws on the grass.

I wonder how many of you wish you had a recall like that 😲

The video also demonstrates a great relationship between dog and handler. Aggie got it wrong, then still didn't do it correctly, but Kay handled the situation perfectly, worked Aggie calmly and patiently, and as a result, achieved the result she was looking for. 🤗

How wonderful to see Shadow actually having some fun in today's 121 session😍

When I first met him, Shadow was really struggling with his confidence, and Caroline couldn't get him to walk any distance at all on the lead. And in our first couple of 121's, he was only happy to walk part way up a ramp.

Today, he took everything in his stride, we even took the ramp out to the car where there was quite a steep incline into the hatch, and he went up it three times in total (down twice too). The carpet did make a big difference, thank you Judith for the tip.

Shadow is so lucky to have found an owner in Caroline, who has worked tirelessly to find ways to improve and help him, and with some tips and advice from me, he really is a different dog today from when I first met him. 🤗

The erratic weather didn't stop me from having two super classes this morning, starting with the adolescent group.

You were all so brilliant today, your dogs are really working so well for you, and to have them all working individually through the tunnels, happily staying with you and not wanting to interact with the other dogs was a fantastic achievement. 🤩

We did actually manage to cover quite a lot in the class, despite the rain showers - impulse control, paws up and round, walking to heel all together, sit and wait, and that all important controlled greeting. What a difference from a few weeks ago. 🤗

It was my pleasure to present Pat and Bella with their puppy course certificate and rosette during today's 121. A bit late, but we got there in the end!

Bella has a super temperament, and Pat is working hard to help her contain her excitement at meeting people, and together they are forming a great relationship. 😍

I am looking forward very much to working with you both again in the adolescent group next month. 🤗

Week 4 in the current six week puppy course and practice with the two skills that everyone wants the most - walking nicely on the lead and a reliable recall.

Well done ladies, you all did brilliantly this morning. 😍

The last class this evening for the April-May Thursday evening agility group.

Some nice runs from everyone on the courses, lovely contacts and great handling. Thank you Louise for filming my attempt with Happy, I think she enjoyed herself. 🤗

I think it's fair to say that when Kay and Aggie came for their first 121 with me about four months ago, they weren't in a good place. Aggie's default and constant behaviour was to jump up and grab at anything nearby, usually clothing, and it then became a great tuggy game which was very rewarding.

But Aggie has a determined owner, and together we have worked with Aggie to help redirect her behaviour. And with consistent training at home and during the 121's we are both now far more familiar with Aggie's limits, and this is such an advantage when it comes to preventing her desire to grab.

Not only is Kay determined, she is also dedicated to Aggie's training, and today I was delighted to sign off the last two exercises for her Bronze Plus diary. Many congratulations Kay - Silver, here we come!

Working with your dog, giving them mental stimulation, gaining a greater understanding, all help you to own a dog that is willing to do as you say, regardless of the surroundings, and will behave as you require because they are happy to do so. One word sums all of this up - training. It's very true, that your dog can only be as good as the time and effort you put into him/her. And Kay and Aggie are a very good example of this.

The below videos of are them both on their way to completing their Bronze Plus diary, and one of Aggie having a great time at home. Life isn't all about training. 🤗

WOULD YOU LIKE TO ….

- HAVE SOME FUN TOGETHER?
- ENJOY SOME BEAUTIFUL SURROUNDINGS?
- HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK WITH OTHER DOGS IN A SAFE ENVIRONMENT?

There is a rare opportunity to come and try out one of my training classes on a Saturday morning during June.

Classes are held in my private and secure field/shelter at the top of Cal Hill off Sandy Lane on Saturday mornings. Places are limited to six dogs in each class.

The cost of the tryout will be £15 as opposed to the usual £45 for a 121 weekend assessment.

If you would like to ‘give it a go!’, please pick a date from the following in June:-
- 6th, 13th, 20th, 27th.

And either send a message or email ([email protected]) with the following info:-
• Your name, mobile phone number, email address
• Your dog’s name, breed, age, any previous training

To ensure that everyone enjoys the experience, your dog will need to be able to cope with other dogs and be under your control during the class.

With such hot conditions, time in the sun was kept to a minimum in today's adolescent class. A quick demonstration of some of the skills learned to date, and then work on sit and wait and impulse control in the shade.

Well done everyone on putting together your sequences at short notice, and for continuing to work on that all important focus. Three adolescent boys together are hard work!
