BE HEAT SAVVY!

Follow up-to-date info as our approach to heat related illness in dogs has changed…

We DO NOT COVER IN WET TOWELS

We DO USE COLD WATER

We DO USE ICY WATER FOR THE SEVERELY AFFECTED (collapsed, fitting, +/- bloody vomit/diarrhoea)

Cold water for the mild to moderately affected will not send them into shock. And for those severely affected, icy water will not shock them either as heatstroke is heat shock!

The old information is still doing the rounds, I have been updating any of my learning materials to ensure you are kept up dated ❤️

A wonderful moment captured on film💖
Beautiful 5.5 month old Dexter the Belgium Malinois cross puppy rescue who's been in his new home for less then 2 weeks, enjoying gentle, respectful, play with his new Buddy Demon. 💖🐾🐾👍👌

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

These powerful breeds with high drive and masses of energy need consistent, kind and confident handling, with all their animal needs met, both with physical and mental stimulation for them to be able to relax in a home environment.
Not to be taken on lightly!
🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

What a pleasure it was to work with them both the other day!
Demon and Dexter are living their best lives! They've made a great start to enjoying a wonderful future together, because their caregivers are meeting all their doggy needs.👍 🐾 💖Great teamwork! 🐾

Another happy Doggy!
I was very happy to receive this message to update me on beautiful Tillys progress.
She'd bitten the groomer and both caregivers. She was a big resource guarder and we had to address body handling and resource guarding issues to help her to relax and be calm and trusting of the situations we put her in.
Amazing result! Great teamwork team Tilly💖👍👏👌👏👏

Hi Rachel, hope you are well? Just wanted to let you know all the hard work is slowly paying off. 2nd successful trip to the new groomers. No growling or nipping. In fact she actually just put her head on the groomers arm and watched while they were doing her paws she remained calm the whole time 😍 Big thanks to you for helping us train and understand her needs better x

This wonderful whattsapp message warmed my heart yesterday, its about a beautiful anxious and reactive German Shepherd Caucasian Cross rescue Poppy with whom I did one session with when she first arrived at her new home 18 months ago.
Poppy is living her Best life 💓 🐾🐾Thanks to her caregivers who have validated her feelings, helped her to feel safe and to trust them, while building her confidence and resilience with their realistic expectations! Great teamwork team Poppy! 👍👌👏👏👏

We let poppy off lead on a public beach for the first time today. There were loads of dogs, kids and people. She was amazing 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
I was a very happy dog mama. So proud of her. She came every time I called her and followed my hand signals beautifully.

I Cannot believe we actually did it!
Do you know Preston and I honestly thought we would not be able to live our lives on the beach or in social places ever again at one point.

She does trust us and she loves her life now. I genuinely feel she loves her life. She knows when we are planning to go camping and she sits in the motorhome for days before we leave. She knows it means long pack walks in exciting new places!

It's taken 18 months, I don't think you can expect overnight success. It's a long time to change entrenched behaviour.

This fantastic video clip was sent to me six weeks after our first puppy session for beautiful 6 month old Archie to address his over arousal and attention seeking behaviours within the home.

Note: This video may look pretty unremarkable until you look back at the previous 2 posts to see just how Archie has progressed💖

🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾

What amazing progress he's made!! Thanks to his caregivers incredible input! 💖
WELL DONE TEAM ARCHIE!!

Understanding another species isn't always easy. Lots of things come into play, but when we start to communicate effectively we can live a more peaceful and harmonious life together.

This is just three days in to training after our first puppy session to help sweet 5 month old Cocker Spaniel Archie with his over arousal and barking within the home! Attention seeking behaviour. We're giving him attention, but the right attention.
The training has a clear beginning and an end, so that beautiful Archie doesn't get any mixed messages which can lead to continuing to pester for attention.
Great team work team Archie! 👏 👏👍👌🐾🐾

6 weeks ago this was beautiful Archie, the 5 month old Cocker Spaniel puppy who was running on adrenaline and nervous energy. He was in unhealthy arousal and didn't know how to relax away from his caregivers. He'd learnt that barking had worked, it was a way of getting attention, albeit 'negative' attention. Everyone was feeling overwhelmed and of course frustrated. With a busy young family it was important that things needed to change. Obedience wasn't working because Archie was too ' 'fizzy' to take on information. We tuned in to his emotions, slowed down and communicated to him what he was doing right!
Everyone was on board and determined to make a difference! I couldn't be happier for this wonderful young family!👍👏🐾🐾🐾
Follow this page to see Archie's progress! 😃👍🐾🐾
