Labradors and water

Splish splash I was taking a bath ! Duke and Tara are not going to let a drop of water spoil the fun in picking up a tennis ball !

Somewhere theres a ball ...... somewhere !!

Duke is nearing the end of his residential training and what a transformation there has been. It took some time to get past his rather arrogant attitude (if a dog can possess such a thing!) but once we did, hes proven himself to be really good company in and out of the house. Well done Duke !

Duke ....

...... enjoys the Autumn sunshine

Two weeks ago Fynn arrived - just ask Paul ! Apparently the young lad was rather a handful, until Paul managed to put one of our leads on him. Since then we have not looked back. He now walks to heel on the lead, sits and stays when told to and

just as importantly, gives eye contact to the person at the other end of the lead ! But these are early days and we still have a number of issues to work on, but like so many dogs we work with, Fynn is proving receptive and a joy to train.

..... who is now listening to the "sit" command

Meet Dingo - at 13 years old our oldest residential training guest to date. Prior to arrival she had a history of dog aggression, food aggression and no recall. Her owners were actually walking her very late in the evening to avoid other dogs. She now recalls very well, is fine with her food and gets on very well with other dogs - ignore her solitude in the photo - just believe me !! Well done Dingo.

Who says a 13 yr old cant run fast ! Well done Dingo !
