Chronic health issues fu***ng suck.

Especially when nobody can see them.

A week ago I was seeing 7 dogs a day without a problem.

Today I tried going to Petstock, started feeling sick while I was there, came home and had to get straight back into bed. Where I remained all afternoon.

And it’s frustrating.

It’s frustrating cancelling plans. It’s frustrating not being able to eat takeaway on a busy day, have a coffee in the morning, or even have a long conversation without sometimes feeling nauseous.

But the hardest part for me is letting clients down when I’m too sick to work.

I love what I do. I want to be there. So having my body make that decision for me is fu***ng hard.

You’d probably be surprised how many small business owners are dealing with chronic health issues behind the scenes while still showing up, answering messages, looking after clients and trying to keep their businesses running.

I’ve been dealing with my gut issues for over 8 months now. I thought I’d be back to normal by now.

Some weeks I feel like I’m finally getting there.

Other days, like today, I cry because I genuinely can’t see the finish line.

But I keep reminding myself of the same thing I tell so many of you:

Progress isn’t linear.

Not with your health. Not with life. And definitely not with your dog’s reactivity.

A bad day - or even a bad week - doesn’t put you back at square one.

Sometimes you rest, regroup, meet yourself where you’re at…

and try again tomorrow❤️

You rang? 🙋‍♀️

I’m here to help you build confidence with your dog again, at home, on your walks, seeing other dogs and people in public without panicking like you have been.

I have a few spots left for new clients in October. Behavioural Assessments are $345 for a 90min initial consult and training plan.

Jump into my bio where you can book online, or shoot me a message if you can’t find a suitable day/time.

I know life’s been hard lately, we’re going to make it easier

Puppy socialisation isn’t about meeting everyone and everything 👀🐾

And one of the biggest mistakes I see? Waiting until your puppy is 4 months old to start.

The critical socialisation period is roughly 8–16 weeks — which means we want to start creating positive, intentional experiences from the moment they come home at 8 weeks, while still keeping them safe.

Socialisation can look like:
• watching dogs without saying hi
• seeing kids, bikes, traffic, trolleys & trucks
• visiting new environments
• hearing different sounds
• learning to observe the world calmly
• experiencing people without needing to interact

The goal isn’t interacting with everyone. It’s calm, positive exposure while your puppy stays under threshold.

I learnt this with Orion. He came to daycare with me every day as a puppy and experienced EVERYTHING — but what he didn’t practise enough was not saying hi, being neutral around dogs and people, and learning that seeing something exciting doesn’t automatically mean access.

With Vega, I’ve been much more intentional.

Because we’re not just raising confident puppies — we’re raising the adult dogs we want to live with ❤️

And you don’t need to wait until there’s a problem to work with a trainer.

🐾 SEPTEMBER PUPPY SPECIAL
For puppies under 16 weeks, Behavioural Assessments are $100 off for this month only.

Usually $345, now $245 for a 90-minute consultation + personalised training plan.

Start at 8 weeks. Don’t wait until 4 months or a year old to start building the foundations you want for life 🐾

Nearly five years ago, I started Snoot because I wanted the freedom to build a life where I could spend more time with them and actually enjoy life together.

And it’s taken me nearly five years to admit that somewhere along the way… I built almost the opposite.

I LOVE helping people train their dogs. But full days, early mornings and sometimes training 10 dogs a day meant I was giving everything I had to everyone else’s dogs, then coming home with an empty battery for my own.

And this year my body finally forced me to listen.

I went from easily training 6-9 dogs a day, going to the gym 5 days a week, drinking coffee every morning and eating whatever I wanted…

To barely having the energy to train one.

For months, the only foods I could tolerate were chicken, carrots and a little fruit. I’ve dealt with nausea every day for the last 6 months, chronic pain and exhaustion - and I’m still building myself back up.

When you’re used to being healthy and capable, it’s so easy to take it for granted. You think you can keep pushing your body and it’ll just keep showing up for you.

Until one day it doesn’t.

So my biggest priority now is getting my health back.

Getting strong again. Going back to the gym. Eating normally. Having energy for my dogs. Going on adventures.

And maybe, just maybe, drinking my morning coffee again by Christmas. 😂☕️

That means Snoot needs to change with me too.

I’ll be reducing my hours, capping how many dogs I see each day and creating a business that leaves some of me for my own life.

And one of the changes I’m MOST excited about?

You’re going to be seeing a lot more of Orion & Vega 🥹❤️

The boys will be joining me for more sessions where appropriate, coming along for more work days and becoming a bigger part of Snoot again.

Snoot turns FIVE in a couple of weeks, and it feels like the perfect time for a new chapter.

I still want to help change as many dogs’ and humans’ lives as I can.

I just want to make sure I’m looking after mine, too ❤️

I am SO bloody proud of everyone at Snoot Social today 🥹💜

We had 6 reactive dogs start the morning around 20 metres apart.

By the end? They were hanging out within a couple of metres of each other, calmly passing each other on walks and just existing around other dogs without needing to interact or react.

And their humans absolutely smashed it too. Watching everyone become more confident as the morning went on — and seeing people genuinely blown away by what their dog was capable of — was exactly why I wanted to create Snoot Socials 🙌

A space where your dog can have a moment and nobody judges you. Where you can practise, learn, build confidence and celebrate the wins alongside people who actually get it.

Because the goal isn’t for our dogs to become best friends.

It’s for you and your dog to feel more confident navigating the real world together. 🐾

And today was a really good example of that. 🥹

Our next Snoot Social is Saturday 12th September at 8am, with 5 spots left.

$75 for existing clients | $120 for the public via application.

And because Snoot is turning FIVE 🎂, we’ll be sticking around afterwards for our 5th Birthday Party — cake and treats for dogs and humans, and a little celebration of five years of Snoot. 💜

I’d LOVE to have you there.

Message me if you’re keen and I’ll send everything through!

Meet Sandy 🥹💛

Sandy’s owner Talia signed up for Online Coaching because she wanted support raising her Golden Retriever puppy into a confident, calm and capable adult dog — and these two have been absolutely smashing it.

Over the last few weeks, we’ve been working on:

🐾 Improving Sandy’s leash walking
🐾 Building her confidence through a fear period
🐾 Teaching neutrality around people and dogs instead of getting wildly overexcited
🐾 Building a reliable recall so she can safely enjoy more off-leash freedom
🐾 Introducing independent time in her playpen to build confidence alone and help prevent separation issues
🐾 And most importantly, teaching Sandy how to make good decisions without needing Talia to micromanage her every move.

Because with puppies, I’m not just looking at the behaviour in front of me today.

I’m looking at the end destination.

What do we want life to look like in a few weeks? A few months? A few years?

A dog you can take places. A dog who can see people and dogs without losing their mind. A dog who can settle, be left alone, walk nicely, come when called and eventually enjoy more freedom because they’ve earned it.

That’s what we’re building with Sandy - and she’s already making some AMAZING choices. 🥹

And the best part? Talia and Sandy are doing all of this through Online Coaching.

For $99/week for 12 weeks, you get ongoing access to me throughout the week for questions, video reviews, troubleshooting, training plans and adjustments as your dog progresses.

I currently have 3 Online Coaching spots available.

If you want support building the dog you actually want to live life with - not just fixing one behaviour at a time - you can apply through the link in my Instagram bio 🤎

Have you ever considered…

The reason you’re struggling with your dog might not be because you’re doing too little.

It might be because you’re doing too much.

As a dog trainer, here’s one of the biggest challenges I give clients…

Go to a park.

Sit down.

Stay there for an hour.

And do absolutely nothing.

No training.
No ball.
No sniffy walk.
No phone.
No scrolling.
No replying to messages.

Just… exist.

Sounds easy, right?

It’s not.

You’ll probably notice you start reaching for your phone. Wondering if you should be doing something. Feeling guilty for “wasting time.”

Now watch your dog.

They’ll probably whine.
Lay down.
Get back up.
Try to drag you over to something.
Sniff every blade of grass.
Bark at you.
Search for something—anything—to do.

Because neither of you actually knows how to just… be.

Somewhere along the way we’ve convinced ourselves our dogs need constant entertainment, constant exercise, constant enrichment, constant training.

And we’ve forgotten one of the most important life skills:

Learning to be calm when nothing is happening.

Just like us, dogs are growing up in a world of constant stimulation.

We’re always busy.
Always consuming.
Always doing.

So are they.

The result?

Neither of you has much patience anymore.

Sometimes the biggest breakthrough doesn’t come from doing more.

It comes from learning to do less.

So here’s my challenge.

This week, find a park.

Sit there for an hour.

Do absolutely nothing.

Let it be uncomfortable.

For both of you.

Because that’s where you’ll both start learning one of the most valuable skills there is: how to simply exist.

It’s really easy when you have a reactive dog and start your training to jump in the deep end and start working around other dogs. But if your dog doesn’t look at you (engagement), they pull on the leash, and they don’t listen to you (inside and outside the house), then you’re not going to get very far.

I want to teach your dog what to do and how to do it, so they can and want to make good decisions on their own and we’re there to help guide in stressful situations.

If your dog is suppressed and you’re just micromanaging them all the time, you’ve done too much too fast and you need to go back a few steps and rebuild.

Where are you at with your reactive dog?
