We had a fantastic early morning Puppy Class today!

Unfortunately we had to reschedule our afternoon / evening classes as it was just too warm and we always must put safeguarding puppies and dogs first before anything else!

All of the puppies did brilliantly in their first Life Skills Recall class!

We focused on fun recall games such as:
✔️Hide and seek
✔️Catch me if you can
✔️Middle
✔️Ping pong game
✔️Positive interruption noise
✔️Name game

1:1 Training Walk with Katie, our Senior Dog Trainer and Enzo the Great Dane!

Whilst Enzo’s owner was at work, Katie conducted a carefully thought out training walk and worked on:
✔️Building confidence and trust with each other (without mum)
✔️The importance of sniffing
✔️Basic commands
✔️Fun with tugs
✔️Scent work with food.

A fantastic session and Enzo was an absolute pleasure to train and he thrived with Katie!

1:1 Training session with Katie, our Senior Dog Trainer and Molly, the Parsons Jack Russell!

Molly’s owners wanted to work on: ✔️Improving Molly’s focus around other dogs in close proximity.
✔️Confidence building around livestock
✔️Managing and helping arousal levels and preventing trigger stacking.

Molly was fantastic throughout the session and her owner has booked a follow up 1:1 so they can start proofing training skills in busier areas.

⭐️Another fantastic review about our 1:1 Home Training with our Senior Dog Trainer, Katie! ⭐️

‘Had our first 1:1 training session with Katie on Sunday. She was absolutely fantastic and we took a lot from it. She helped us understand how Mabel’s brain works and how best we can support her to live a happy and healthy life. We feel very optimistic that things will continue to improve and would very much recommend Puppy and Friends.’

Well done Mabel! 💛

⭐ A fantastic review about our House Sitting Service with our Care Coordinator, Issy! ⭐️

‘Issy stayed in our home to look after Miss Annie (our yellow lab) while we were away . Prior to the booking she came to meet us to discuss Annie’s needs and routines . She proved very professional in all aspects of Annie’s care … she is clearly a dog lover and Annie was thoroughly spoiled with cuddles, walks and play . Issy is someone who uses her initiative… she also set up a family WhatsApp group for photos and videos of Annie and they were lovely to watch . Issy brought with her a very friendly and positive energy which Annie clearly enjoyed as we could tell by Annie’s demeanour when we returned home.
We highly recommend Issy for all your doggy needs and we have already penciled her in for July . Lucky Miss Annie 🦮🦮🦮’

We love Miss Annie and we can’t wait to see her again! 💛
