@PippaMattinson This is a very informative book. It’s given me a few techniques to try that differ from the way I trained my late Lab.

Puppy Cooper update. His training had to be paused due to an illness but he is now back at it. Recall, heel and lead work is good. Now time to build on duration and distance. @PippaMattinson #labrador

The two minutes you spend training your dog today is worth a thousand times the ten minutes you plan to train tomorrow :) #doitnow

For the last decade or more I have defended the appropriate use of dog crates. But I believe I am seeing a disturbing trend that is tempting me to change my position. https://t.co/JUEoQmdM9U

[Pippa @PippaMattinson]

With some provisos the use of crates is now illegal in some European countries such as Sweden and Finland, and restricted in others. Should these restrictions apply in the USA & UK where crating for long periods is more widespread? Link to article below.

Foundation Skills students, bigger mats are better for mat games! The dog has to work harder to fit on the smaller mat, and we want you to get off to a quick and enjoyable start 🙂

Does the sound of the doorbell send your dog into a frenzy? It is natural for dogs to become overly excited when guests arrive. However, you can control the chaos by teaching your dog to be calm when the doorbell rings. https://t.co/dH8CKATlHI

This dog is Kennel Club registered and being used at stud. This abomination is possible because the KC does not mandate breathing tests for bulldogs (or any flat-faced breeds, despite their known problems). Please help by supporting this petition.
