We've just had a theft at the farm - please watch out for your sites. We're probably the start of their night time "fun".

Possible thunderstorms and lightening...

To help your dogs...
- keep them inside
- put on some background noise to minimise the surprise of any thunderclaps
- get slow feeder toys prepped
- get high value treats ready
- note your dogs may start to feel unsettled with the pressure change before a storm
- if a storm starts, give them a slow feeder toy
- if needed, give them a high value treat after each thunder clap
- give your dog support if they seek it (you can't reinforce worry)
- allow your dog to hide if they choose to - don't try and encourage them out if they are hiding somewhere safe.
- close curtains if they are distressed by any flashes

"You've got to go home now, Mabel!"

Little Mabel is all tuckered out after puppy class but still doesn't want to leave! She'll flake out when she gets home and fall deep into the sleep of the innocents. (rest assured, she's far from innocent, but we won't tell her that.) But that's an added bonus of puppy classes - how relaxed and restful the pups are on a class day - owners love it!

If you'd like to join us for puppy training and have a pup under 18 weeks at the moment, we have a new class starting on the evening of the 14th May. Please book here - https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule/fce4c342/?appointmentTypeIds[]=77917600 or call to discuss - 07900 403126

And as this page is all things dog, here is a lovely article above some of the war's canine heroes.
