I have exclusive access to an acre of land on a private farm, which is separated into a few linking paddocks. Itโs a lovely place to spend my days with the dogs, filled with natural obstacles, different platforms, and toys for their enjoyment and enrichment. There is also plenty of local wildlife around the farm, along with a few farm cats. This is ideal, as it provides natural distractions that allow me to really put the dogs training to the test.
All of my group walks take place in the paddocks, within a controlled environment. This is great from a safety perspective, as it means we donโt encounter any unknown people or dogs that are outside of my control. That way, my focus is solely on the dogs in my care, allowing me to provide as much training and enrichment as possible, while also ensuring that the dogs are communicating well with one another in a safe space.
My walks at the paddocks aren't just a matter of turning up and letting your dog off lead to run around like a nutter for the entire time. Sure, they get to have a good run and play a bit of fetch now and then, but what I mostly focus on is stimulating the dogs in a variety of ways. Whether it's training the basic fundamentals, recall work, scent games, or even a bit of agility โ thereโs always plenty for us to do. I primarily try to align with what my clients are currently working on with their dogs, so that weโre all on the same page and to help them and their dogs make the best possible progress.
Please donโt hesitate to contact me anytime if you have any queries.
