"I know I look like an idiot, but..."

But then I remember that someone else’s opinion of me will never be more important than a dog’s future.

So if I need to look silly, talk to a dog like they’re a toddler, reward them in public, or do the same exercise 50 times while people watch…

So be it.

Don’t let the fear of being judged stop you from giving your dog the life they deserve. 🤍

It's subtle, but this video highlights one of the most important things when teaching recall 👀
Bowe is a puppy, his recall is not yet 100%. In this video, I called Bowe and he didn't respond, so I used to lead to bring him back to me 🐾
When teaching recall, I don't let a dog off lead until I know they will respond every time. I need to be able to back up the command, and teach the dog that ignoring recall is not an option 🐕

Introducing ARC Dog Training Neutrality Walks! 🐕

These structured walks are designed for dogs who need to work on staying calm and focused around other dogs, people and distractions, including reactive, adolescent and excitable dogs. 🐾

We’ll work on things such as:
🐾 Neutrality around other dogs
🐾 Calm lead walking
🐾 Recall
🐾 Focus & engagement
🐾 Obedience around distractions

The aim is to help you and your dog feel more confident navigating real-life situations together.

Spaces will be limited to keep the walks structured and suitable for everyone, and all dogs will need to be assessed for suitability beforehand.

📅 First walk: 17th October, 11am.
📍York Community Woodland.

📩 Message me to enquire or find out if your dog would be suitable! If you can't make this time/place but are interested in other walks in the future, message me and I'll make sure I make you aware of any future walks.

🐾 NEW SERVICE-STRUCTURED PACK WALKS! 🐾

I’m so excited to finally introduce structured pack walks at ARC Dog Training! 🐶

These aren’t just your typical group dog walks. They’re small, carefully managed groups where the focus is on calmness, neutrality, good manners and appropriate social skills, while allowing dogs to enjoy being out and about together whilst you are busy with your life.

The groups will be kept small (maximum 3–4 dogs) and dogs will be carefully matched to make sure everyone is comfortable and able to get the most out of the walk.

They’re ideal for dogs who:
🐕 Enjoy being around other dogs but need a little extra support
🐕 Need to work on neutrality and calmness around other dogs
🐕 Could use some extra structure and training while out on a walk

Each walk will be trainer-led and structured throughout, with training opportunities naturally built into the walk.

All dogs will be assessed before joining a pack walk so I can make sure the group is a good fit.

If you think your dog would enjoy being part of one of my pack walks, send me a message to find out more or to book your assessment! 🐾

This is something I hear all the time, and it makes complete sense. There are lots of reasons why your dog might behave differently with a trainer, but the important thing is that I don’t want your dog to only behave for me. 🐾

My goal is to teach you how to understand your dog, communicate clearly and get the same results together. My 1-1 sessions are just as much about teaching you as they are about your dog. 🐕

Training isn’t just about changing your dog’s behaviour, building a relationship where you both understand each other. 💕

Day trains aren't just about training, but helping your dog experience the world, build confidence, practice neutrality and learn how to settle in real-life environments.

From walks and training sessions to shopping trips and café visits, helping you create a dog you can bring along with you to enjoy life with 🩵

Want to know what a Day Train could look like for your dog? Message me to book a free consultation call.

My goal is always to let dogs be dogs, but it has to be done safely. My dogs have more freedom, because I know they will always recall. No recall means no off lead freedom🤷🏻‍♀️
I am not willing to risk my dogs running up to another dog that could be aggressive, or bolting after a scent and running straight into a road🥺

If you are struggling with your dogs recall, pop me a message to see what we can do!📩

There's so much conflicting information about how to raise a puppy. These are some of the mistakes I see most often🐾

Puppyhood is such an important time, and avoiding these mistakes will help you set your puppy up for success and create a well-rounded dog as they grow into adulthood🐕

Play is so overlooked for the majority of dog owners, but it can help improve so many things, including engagement, motivation, confidence, focus, and connection🐾

Training sessions should be fun for both you and your dog🐶
