Fargo’s been learning his left from his right! @guidedogs #powersofprt

@PrimeVideo why on earth have you just let the interviewer give Tim Henmen the credit for @EmmaRaducanu’s #USOpen win?! It’s not due to him being courtside - it’s her talent! You should cut away from him when he is referring to them as GIRLS. It’s disgusting. #sexism

@profbuchan @BBCNews @guardian @LivEchonews Thanks for the reply!

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

@profbuchan I returned mine 🙂 and tested negative. Are the results picked up by cipha available to all? I’m wondering why the cinema event this weekend has been cancelled... does this mean people who had attended tested positive?

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

@elenasemino Is it possible to include it as some sort of optional activity? Provide multiple texts that allow students to engage equally (presumably looking at same type of feature/framework) but allow them to choose content of text? If using zoom, they can then break into different groups

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

@KateMeeks4 I would recommend the scatter cushions - Terral rests his head on them and it’s very cute. Disney+ is excellent 😂 enjoying the awfulness/amazingness that is Hannah Montana

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

It’s strange that days can be filled with the same activities as normal but that everything is so much more exhausting at the moment 😴 finding myself regularly wishing I was a dog just for the naps! #Coronavirustruth

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

@KateMeeks4 ... he has throw cushions on his bed. Or rather, on one of his beds 😂 but don’t worry - his other bed has cushions too. He’s not normally allowed on our bed... but on this last Sunday I may have been feeling a bit rubbish and let him up to cuddle while I watched Disney films 😳

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

@dog_fargo Would like to see a picture of this in 2 days Fargo 😂

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

@LesleyAitken23 They are! It’s interesting to see the dogs’ techniques change over time... Ronnie, who we puppy walked, eventually learnt that he needed to lie facing a wall and make a v against it with his arms. He then used his nose to knock it around within that small triangle. Very clever!!

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

Terral’s learnt that if his wobbler reaches the corners or strays onto the laminate floor then he needs to pick it up and reset - it shows how these types of feeders exercise dogs’ problem solving skills! He’s had carrot in it today for a change 🙂 #StayHome #GuideDogsFamily

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

VD: Terral pushes his Kong wobbler and some carrot come out which he eats. He nudges it again and it moves from carpet onto laminate floor so he picks it up and returns it to the carpet. My husband is cooking in the background (they’re both well trained 🤣)

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

@AngieBeatDown @guidedogs Guide Dogs is currently in the process of producing some resources for Guide Dog Owners on how to tackle this during the lockdown, so bear with us. I think variation really helps... @Kika_GuideDog just asked about this so there may be some ideas there to steal!

[Claire Hiles @claire_hiles]

Keeping a trainee Guide Dog entertained, who’s used to lots of mental & physical exercise = lots of imagination & interactive puzzles! Well done Clover! @guidedogs #Volunteer #Cardiff #GuideDogsCymru
Video shows black Labrador x retriever spinning a bone shaped puzzle 4 kibble

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

VD: I show two small toys to the camera and hide them in my living room. Terral comes in and heads straight to where one is hidden, sniffing around to find it. When he grabs it with his mouth, I give him lots of praise and exchange it for a treat. He sets off to find the next.

[Rosie Harvey @trainerrosie]

Terral and I have been playing some scent games! I’ve left these toys next to some catnip to make them super smelly and Terral has to use his nose to find them 🙂 this makes his brain work hard - if we play this game for 10 minutes, Terral needs a 2 hour nap to recover! #StayHome
