One Dog’s Quirk Is Another’s Training Opportunity 🐶✨

In the world of dogs, context is everything.

A behaviour that’s endearing or even useful in one environment might be unwanted - or even unsafe - in another. That’s why it’s so important to understand a dog’s purpose, lifestyle, and the setting they’re in.

Take Max, a dog I walk regularly. When he’s loose in the van, he loves to jump up and look out the front windscreen. I find it adorable - his big, goofy face appearing in the rear-view mirror brings me so much joy! But my colleague Tania sees it differently. For her, it’s a safety concern and a distraction. She always secures him to keep him from practicing this.

Neither of us is wrong. It just shows how the same behaviour can be interpreted differently depending on personal preferences and safety requirements.

This is especially true across working dogs vs pet dogs:

A herding dog nipping at heels might be helpful on a farm - but frustrating in a family home.

A guardian breed being territorial might be ideal for a rural property - but challenging in a busy suburb.

As dog professionals and owners, it’s important to ask:
🔹 Is this behaviour appropriate for this environment?
🔹 Is it safe and manageable?
🔹 Can it be redirected or channelled into something productive?

Because sometimes what looks like a “problem” is actually just a misplaced strength waiting for the right outlet.

Hi everyone,
We reaching out to gauge interest in our Puppy classes for under 6 month olds! We have a minimum number requirement so are hoping to see if there is enough interest.

The course includes four sessions, each lasting about an hour. We’ll focus on building confidence to help develop well-rounded pups, teaching basic skills, using reinforcement effectively, fostering a strong relationship between you and your dog, and appropriate socialization with other dogs.

The proposed start date is Monday, March 3rd, at 6:00 PM.

To register your interest, please email us at [email protected]

Looking forward to hearing from you!

I want to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you to everyone for supporting our small business this year.

It’s been a challenging year for us. We’ve had to say goodbye to more clients than ever before – even more than during the pandemic. 😳 This hasn’t been because people no longer need their dogs walked, but more often due to financial struggles.

We’re incredibly grateful to all of you who’ve continued to trust us during these tough times. To our new clients who’ve joined us this year, welcome and thank you for giving us the chance to care for your pups. And to those who’ve had to step away, we appreciate every bit of support you’ve given us – whether it was through using our services, engaging with our social media, or referring us to friends. Every little thing means so much to us.

A massive thank you as well for all the thoughtful Christmas gifts! They’ve truly brightened our days (and my snack cupboard – I think I’ll be eating chocolate well into next year! 😆).

We wish you all a magical holiday season filled with love, laughter, good food, and plenty of puppy cuddles. 🐕🎄🎅❤️ Thank you again for being part of our journey this year.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended the presentation! It truly felt like a huge success. The feedback we received during and after the session was exactly what I hoped for: helping to ease the minds of dog owners. Your concerns are valid, and I’m glad the advice shared could help build your confidence and reduce anxiety during walks with your dogs.

We’re excited to host more events like this for the community and potentially expand to other areas if there’s enough interest.

A special shoutout to for generously sponsoring the goodie bags—though I nearly forgot to hand them out at the end! 😆

We're at the Kaihere Domain today for the Hauraki Vintage Machinery Club's Crank Up Day! It's the perfect opportunity to bring your dog along and enjoy a fun, social outing. With plenty of noise, people, and activity, it's an excellent environment to practice exposure and socialization with your pup. Come by, say hello, and soak in the lively atmosphere! 🐕

Here's a collection of some of our favourite runs for your viewing pleasure 🐕
Video one; Gillys awesome run. First run of the weekend for me and it was a cracker of a start 👌
Video two; Topaz and I attempting a novice course. I wanted to post this one so you could see the weather we were battling on the first day there! 🌧
Video three; Topaz's 1st place Jumpers C run ⭐️
Video four; DD's Novice final. She lacks confidence to start and picks up, managing to finish the course. Super impressed with how far this dog has come. Last year at nationals I scratched her from the final as I knew she wouldn't cope with the crowd and a thunderstorm rolled over at the same time. This year she smashed it and exceeded expectations entirely!
Video five; DD's 1st place Novice run ⭐️
