Ok, how many of you even consider your dogs arousal when training?

23/09/2025

Anxiety! What causes it, how do we recognise it, what influences it and how do we hatch a plan to increase our dogs ability to cope with anxiety and fear?

22/09/2025

'You can' or 'You can't reinforce fear? '
pick one and tell me why...

Anxiety?

🤓What best describes how your dog acts during neighbourhood walks?
(Relaxed, excited, intense?)

I’ve been sick urgh! Send me some pics of your fur support on sick days!

The more you 'dig into' exactly whats going on in your puppy's development, the more understandable your dogs behaviour ...

The more you 'dig into' exactly whats going on in your puppy's development, the more understandable your dogs behaviour becomes!
Is he being 'naughty'? Really? ...or could it be that his molars are pushing through and he wants to chew everything in sight?
Is he 'pushing boundaries'... or could it be that his underdeveloped pre frontal cortex is impairing his ability to self regulate?
Is it 'dominance' or are his surging hormones pushing sociability changes and increasing intensity in everything he perceives?..and fear periods?! What the heck are they all about?
Oddly, we tend to have a reasonable concept of the socialisation window, (8-16weeks) but please, oh please, don't think the works over at 16 weeks ...adolescence is on its way and we need to make a plan!
Have you been through an intense adolescence with your dog ?
or was it all a breeze?

dog/pup parents...if we had a service that helped you through the entirety of your pup and adolescent journey with regular training challenges and in person meet ups would you find that useful?

I find that many people finish puppy school but lose momentum and then have a hard time when pup starts to hit adolescence, reaching out again in desperation.

What specifically would have made your puppy 2 adulthood journey a little easier?

🌟 Why Breed Traits Matter — Right From Puppyhood 🌟

When we welcome a puppy into our home, it’s easy to think of them as a “blank slate.” But the truth is, every puppy arrives with thousands of years of history written into their DNA.

🐕 Herding breeds may be quick, sharp thinkers — but they might also want to chase everything that moves.
🐕 Guarding breeds can be wonderfully loyal — but may naturally be suspicious of strangers.
🐕 Retrievers love carrying things in their mouths — which can look like endless chewing if it isn’t channelled.
🐕 Terriers have the courage of lions — but that digging, barking, and chasing instinct is no accident!

None of this means your puppy’s future is “fixed.” But it does mean their breed traits shape how they experience the world, how they learn, and what they need to thrive.

👉 That’s why we don’t just look at obedience in class. We consider who your puppy is — their instincts, their drives, their natural tendencies. When we work with, not against, these traits, training becomes smoother, behaviour makes sense, and puppies grow into confident, resilient dogs.

💡 The earlier we take breed traits into account, the easier it is to prevent frustration (for both pups and people) and set them up for success.

📅 Our puppy classes are designed with this in mind — spaces are limited, so if you want a class that respects who your dog truly is, message me today.
