Phew !

It's been non-stop since the Lowther Show.
Yesterday, following training in the morning, it was off to Coniston for a behaviour case.
Paul offered to keep me company, expecting an enjoyable stroll no doubt as I spent an hour with the owner. He was to be disappointed !
Believing that it may take an hour or a little more, he opted to stay in the car, as the house was nowhere near the lake. Big mistake!
Three hours later I made an appearance. For some reason there was no smile on his face !!
But I offered to take him for a meal at the nearby Old Church in Torver, where with my company (!) and the wonderful food, life seemed a little better.
Today has been another hectic day, with dogs being walked in the morning, Tod being collected and another two training cases this afternoon.
But I wouldn't have it any other way.

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.
