I’m a dog behaviorist and dogs still blow my mind on a daily basis – here’s why

Good morning everyone

Have you completed dog obedience classes, but want to continue another type of training with your dog?

How about giving scent training a go? Any dog can do it!

There are two spaces left on the Hamstreet 3 Week Course.

Or how about tracking? If you would like to have a go, but cannot make this time on Friday (8.00am - 10.00am), is there an alternative time on Friday you can make? Either earlier or later? Please get in touch and let me know. There is a maximum of 3 spaces on the course. We use a lot of field space for this type of training!

Any sort of scent training is especially good for our anxious and reactive dogs. Sniffing is a calming activity and helps to de-stress our dogs.

Come and train with your dog at something they're already good at.

Please check out the website for further information and details, www.cockersandsquatters.co.uk.

If you have any queries regarding training, you can also give me a call on; 07979 967361.🙂

Good morning

I have been working on what courses are coming up.

This is what is available at the moment;

Recall Workshop - Hamstreet (March)
Scent Detection Classes, Bronze - Hamstreet (April)
Scent Detection Classes, Bronze - Kennington (June/July)

Details of the above can be found on the website www.cockersandsquatters.co.uk

I am running an 8 Week tracking course near Ruckinge starting 30.04.2025. This is already fully booked and therefore not advertised on the website. Spaces are very limited for this.

I am looking to run another tracking course, Friday mornings around the same time or maybe a 9.30am start. Only three spaces will be available. An advert will be going on the website in the next day or two.

For anyone looking to do silver - I have not forgotten you. The "behind the scenes" organizing takes a bit of time!

Please do not hesitate to get in contact if you'd like anymore information or details on any of the courses - 07979 967361🙂

Patrick Swayze once said, "They told me my house smelled like dogs, and I asked them, do you know what a dog smells like? It smells like gratitude, loyalty, nobility, affection, pure unconditional love. And in spite of all they've been through, they smell no resentment. So blessed that my house smells like dogs."

Isn't this the perfect reminder that true blessings can't be measured by society's standards? Patrick Swayze captured what we seasoned dog mamas have known all along - that a house filled with the presence of our faithful companions is really filled with love, not just "dog smell." When our hearts are full of joy and gratitude from our four-legged angels, who cares what others think about our homes? After all, the most precious things in life can't be seen, but they can surely be felt... and sometimes smelled! ❤️👏

So true and so beautiful! 🐾❤️ Dogs give their whole heart unconditionally, bringing endless love and joy into our lives. This picture says it all—there’s no bond as pure as the one between a dog and their human. 🥰🐶
