Some final exercises in the last class which owners and their puppies took to brilliantly. It has been lovely to see how they have all developed and grown in confidence over the past six weeks, puppies and owners! I look forward to seeing them again on the Advanced course 🐶👩‍🎓👨‍🎓😃

Lovely Walk and Talk this week with Fabulous Freddie and Marvellous Missy joining Leo, Fergus and Saffy. We had lots of fun running around in the woods and across the fields with the usual splash about in the lake 💦🐶😊

Molly and Wallace and their owners did brilliantly with yesterday’s exercises. They were very enthusiastic doing the back away and showed great impulse control with the leave exercises. Impressive work 🐶😃

Digby and Tilly did very well practising their emergency stop. We then did some calm work with the bucket game, a great way to improve communication between owner and dog, particularly in relation to handling. Leo had a little nap 💤 Great work everyone! 🐶😃

We had to use the shelter to escape the rain instead of the heat for a change yesterday. Everyone did very well with the back away exercise and then owners taught their pups the benefit of patience, rewarding them with fine treats for their hard work 🐶🍗
