Tranquility in The Lake District .... if you know where to go !

Right now we have some wonderful dogs staying. Tan & Storm, who have been with us for several days, were joined this morning by 9mth old Springer Spaniel Barney. He's a real livewire but very responsive to commands, both verbally and with a whistle.
Meanwhile Tan and Storm are both great to have around, with the latter being happiest when a stick is thrown for her. This habit has even generated some interest from Honey ..... who settles for twigs, for obvious reasons.
Today's photograph was taken within The Lakes. But despite this being school holidays, we didn't meet anyone.
For an enlarged photo, please click on the smaller one.

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 !
