Qualified & Experienced Dog Behaviourist & Master Professional Dog Trainer, NW England. 1 to 1 training & behaviour consultations email victoria@pawsandreflect
Lovely to get this feedback yesterday๐
When I decided to become a behaviourist I was determined to do it properly so I signed up for an accredited 18 month, level 6 (degree equivalent) course. It's been hard work but I've learned so much to go along with 25 years of owning dogs
Fully endorse @PawsAndReflect1 Victoria is working with me & my young GSD who came with no backstory so no prior information to work with. Her knowledge, understanding and support is amazing, non judgemental and clearly loves dogs #dogs#fireworks
Today I've been working with Yorkshire terriers Louie and Charlie who used to be friends but have been falling out recently.
Work began today to rebuild their relationship ๐
Yesterday was my first experience of working with a blind client & her guide dog. I'd given lots of thought to how we could adapt certain things so that they would be achievable, although my client can do many things a lot of sighted owners don't do!
Today I've been working with Ghost (a German Shepherd x rottweiler x dalmation who looks like a black lab) who is a guide dog and a very good job he does too.
His furbro Hans the sprocker made sure he got his share of fuss and treats too ๐
Today I've been working with Romeo the cavapoo.
Romeo had a bad experience which has left him feeling anxious about his walks so we need to help him enjoy his walks like he used to ๐
Have you adopted a street-born dog from overseas?
@DogDeskAction are trying to better understand what happens after street dogs enter homes.
Please would you share your experience ๐

I've been back to see Leo the lab & Eriskay came to work on his socialisation
He'd been barking & lunging at dogs but today was calm & enjoyed searching for treats with Eriskay
Last time Leo was very bouncy & frequently jumped up but Leo's mum gets 10/10 for doing her homework๐
@Albertspanner@siranspringer Our council has turned some down that the government have overturned. No infrastructure increases & the hospital is very old and too small but they built mega warehouses in a place that would have been great for a new hospital ๐
ZIGGY & SNOOPY
Ziggy & Snoopy are trying their hardest to find homes so they can come to the UKโฅ๏ธ
They are due to travel next month but we will have to pull them off travel if we donโt find homes for them ๐
Such gorgeous boys and they really deserve to find the best homes โฅ๏ธ
Mumma Tilly is already in her UK forever home living her best life, now itโs the boys turn๐๐ป๐

Today I've been working with Bertie the Westie who has been finding his walks a bit stressful so we'll be working on building his confidence so he can enjoy his walks again.
A great day yesterday at the networking event.
There were talks & demos on so many topics incl canine neuroscience & behaviour, physiology & equipment, scentwork, gundog training, trick training, dog law & first aid.
My favourite bit was at the end of the gundog session though๐คฃ
