Write a caption... With everything going on at the moment we want to help keep dogs in homes.
Our latest scheme that we are about to launch, thanks to a specific grant we have received, is to try to help genuine people who want to keep their XLs but are struggling financially.
We want to help people that would otherwise be forced to make hard decisions about their dogs or feel forced to abandon.
Due to the grant agreements at this time we can only offer this to residents within DARTFORD BOROUGH and they must be on the benefits listed on the poster, and will be asked to provide evidence. Your dog must meet the XL Billy standards as outlined on the DEFRA Website.
Neuters will take place at the vet of our choice within Dartford and you will need to be able to get the dog there yourself, unless there are extenuating circumstances.
We do have a limited budget but should have enough to do forty or so genuine cases.
Anyone in need within the catchment area that meets requirements please contact us via email only.
Please note along with the help of a behaviourist we are also organising muzzle training sessions within the same area.
We wish we could roll it out further and do more but it’s all we can do at the moment.

I’m so angry right now - anxious as to how this is going to pan out. I will be a voice! I will stand up with others to defend you.

I wanted to put a post out regarding the banning of the XL Bully. As you know I am passionate about bull breeds and work with many people and charities helping dogs with behavioural issues. My main focus has always been and will remain to assess, safeguard and work positively to help anyone who has a dog with behavioural needs. I will never discriminate against any body or any dog and work with those dogs that others forget time after time. I will continue to be a voice. All of my training is positive reinforcement based and is about looking at why a behaviour has developed. Along with my other fellow trainers I will also be offering free advice regarding muzzle training and how the law will impact you and your dog. My training classes have always been and will remain to include every breed. Even if the ban goes through! I’m a firm believer that it’s deed not breed and that the popularity of prong collars and old style training methods are accountable for the position we are now in. Information regarding training classes will follow.

All star cast - patients when you have a reactive dog comes into play a lot - we are changing the thought process. Stop wait at a safe distance and take in what’s around you.

What does your dogs tail tell you about them. Come on guys you know I love a tail.Lol each of these dogs are rescues, each have their own story to tell. It’s so important to watch, listen and learn

Lots of people follow these dog trainers that promise to get their dog under control by placing a prong collar on their dog and forcing that dog into submission. Stop 🛑 think about how you would feel if someone did that to you. It’s called domestic violence- its called coercive behaviour! And as humans we are taught that that behaviour is wrong. So why do some dog trainers use these tactics. It’s because they don’t know how to earn the love and respect from your dog - they don’t put the work in to help change the process. They don’t know how! Make a change. Set your dog up for success the positive way.
