Cocker Spaniel

More independent from the lady and a good night’s sleep.

Woody and the lady would both be happier if he was more independent. He is a 7-month-old Working Cocker Spaniel, born into lockdown with the lady working from home. In my ‘early-days’ puppy parenting sessions, I suggest people build into their day regular very short separations to help their puppy Read more…

Fear

Left All Alone. Panics. Tries to Escape.

The Beagle can’t be left all alone. When they adopted Libby a couple of weeks ago, they had no clue they wouldn’t be able to go out to work and happily leave her. She had previously been fostered out by the rescue – to a home with several dogs. Her Read more…

Miniature Daschunds Barking

Butter wouldn’t melt! I didn’t take this beautiful photo – at no stage were the little dogs either still or quiet enough. Blaze and Rolo, three-year-old Miniature Daschund brothers, are very excitable and extreme barkers. In order to get them to stop even briefly when people visit they have had Read more…

Wound Up English Bull Terrier

Reggie is seven months old, but to look at him you would never think he was little more than a puppy. He has been hard work from when he arrived at eight weeks old. He is one of the most frantically hyped-up and restless dogs I have seen for a Read more…
