What is that in the water ?

Paul has managed to catch some rather wonderful photos of Tasha, my German Shepherd guest and Barney, my Lab x Staffie guest.
These two certainly have bonded with Paul, especially Tasha, a 2yr old rescue dog. For her, Paul can do no wrong (!!!).
But this love affair is mutual, so much so that after much deliberation and research, Paul has put his name down for a German Shepherd of his own. Due to be born next year, he's opted for a long haired dog .......  there's nothing like planning !

As for Barney. Forget the grey hairs - this lad is very young at heart. His favourite walking spots must include water and wood. From absolutely nowhere, this friendly lad will find a piece of wood and bring it to me, wanting it to be thrown. Add water to the game and "hey presto", one very happy dog!

"Steady Tasha, what is that ????!!"
Barney can't get enough  h2o - whatever the colour or smell !
"Where am I ?"
"Right, I'm clean. Can we go home now ?"

The Czechoslovakian Wolfdog

Over the years I've worked with most breeds, from Akitas and Rottweilers through to Chihuahuas and Yorkshire Terriers. Now I can mention another breed - a Czechslovakian Wolfdog. Meet Kyra, who I'm just beginning to train. As these are early days, the long line is still required to prevent her running off but this is only for short term use until I know with complete confidence that she will respond to the recall. Talking with Kyra's owner Not a common sight in the English Countryside On a different note, Paul was contacted at the start of the week by the Farmers Guardian, asking to use his very powerful photograph from one of my sheep chasing lessons. It features on the "Sheep" page on my website and previously featured in an article on me last year. The dog featured is a Presa Canario x Rottweiler. And I can honestly say that no sheep was bitten or harmed. An all too common sight caused by thoughtless owners But to finish off, let me introduce y...

Summer 2019 - sunshine and showers

How wonderful to see a dog express his enjoyment at being in water as much as Bear does. This youngster loved our muddy ditch and ran up and down constantly. But then came the washing and drying of Bear and the question "why did I allow him to do that ?!" Bear .............and then there was Murray ! Murray Heidi, a recent residential training youngster, loved to let off steam by jumping through the air for a tuft of grass. This Munsterlander was quite a sight, as her long legs allowed her to get quite a leap. Heidi Mick, enjoying some playtime in the heather ! Mick Bert is famous ..... well, in a way he is. Rachel's lad is on the front cover of a certain 2020 calendar. Photograph by Paul.
