Newcomers

A new guest arrived yesterday abeit just for a couple of nights, he is called Verdie...(yes it is an unusual name!) and he is a chocolate Flat Coat Retriever.

His owners brought him to me for training a couple of months ago and he is lovely and calm and very biddable. He is enjoying making new friends with my dogs and is playing well, out on walks he is well behaved too!

Little Buddie arrives today just for the night while his owners are out enjoying themselves! Buddie loves it here and we love having him to stay, he is a real character, although this visit he will be kept on a lead when out as he has a broken growth plate, so needs to be kept quiet........ should be interesting!

Never a dull moment here!

The Italian Connection - Harry the Spinone

Let me introduce you to Harry, an Italian Spinone. Harry arrived yesterday for a day's "try out", prior to any long term boarding. He's as gentle as he looks and those eyes .... ! Janet

"Come on Chief, smile !!"

"Come on Chief, smile !!" That look from 9 mth old Chief tells me I'm lucky to take even one photograph of him ! Chief is just one dog who has stayed with me since the New Year, either for boarding or residential training. Nearly all can be seen on my Cumbria Dog Training Facebook page, and with a husband who is more than cabaple Peanut enjoys the fells. Meet Nala, a beautiful Portuguese Water Dog, who, at 7 mths old is still displaying alot of puppy traits. She's staying for a 24 hr try out and has fitted in really well. I'm pleased to be able to say that Peanut is staying with me again. This young Cocker is such a lovely girl who makes herself right at home and gets on so well with everyone, both people and dogs. And finally, time for my own girls !

Bailey goes back to school

My daughter Rachel has been working with me for some months now, both walking and and very occasionally, helping to train dogs (with the owners knowledge). Two weeks ago, she was given the responsibility of turning around the behaviour of young tearaway Bailey, a Cocker Spaniel. He arrived pulling, no recall and having absolutely no eye contact. But with persistence and a little hard work, things are really starting to change !
