Yep... you read that right! 👀

Books for all services for 2026 are now closed! Here are some further details...

🗓️ Availability for 1 Consultation in November and 1 in December may become available. I will update my auto email response to reflect this for incoming enquiries. Books will reopen with full availability in Jan 2027 for New Consultations.

🤩 Clients on existing Behaviour Programmes are still welcome and encouraged to book in for their next Training Sessions!

👍 Regular and Ad Hoc Dog Walking schedule will continue. No new clients will be taken on for Dog Walking for the foreseeable future (including in 2027).

🌙 There are absolutely no overnight dog sitting opportunities available for the remainder of 2026.
☀️ Availability for day/part day dog sitting is exceptionally limited for the remainder of 2026.

🏡 Dog sitting opportunities for 2027 are almost all gone too (!) the only months with remaining availability are: early April 2027, late October/early-mid November 2027, and early December 2027. Of course, bookings occasionally get cancelled etc so there is no harm asking me to be added to the wait list for dates in months which are already full ☺️

❓ If you have any queries or questions please drop me a message! I'm sorry if my limited availability disappoints you. I'll always do my best to accommodate your requests if I can! I hope you all know that.

💖 As always, great thanks and love to you all for your business, trust, and kindness. (and patience - I've been a scatter brain of late in terms of invoicing!!)

Those of you who have followed H's progress since Summer 2025 will see this and probably have to double check it's actually him...! Big and loud, but harmless, H is a typical GSD! He's made so much progress with his emotional regulation skills that he was able to meet a new friend and have absolutely 0 reaction...! Talk about a win! So happy for this boy to be making new friends 🥹 this was a wonderful update to receive.

So just incase any of you were wondering or unsure... Positive reinforcement really does work!

Precious Penny and I enjoyed a couple of days dog sitting recently. She has had a sensitive tummy of late, so keeping her calm, happy, and stable was the priority! I think we managed... She had more naps than a new puppy does! See you soon again Penny! 😍💖

What a beautiful day with Canine Partners at their Dog Show and Family Funday on Sunday 20th September. I had so much fun judging the classes! Although it was sooooo tricky to give out the rosettes and make so many decisions haha

So many fabulous working dogs there at the show and some up and coming pups in training. It was wonderful to see the money that was being raised being out into direct action helping out the handlers of these amazing dogs.

The day raised nearly £1200! Incredible stuff!

A whole year of supporting Dachshunds with The Red Foundation!

It's been a true pleasure and I don't think I'm going to last much longer without a Daxie of my own!!! 👀🙈

Initially I started as behaviour advice and support for people who were considering surrendering their dogs and it was my role to help keep these dogs in their homes or support them whilst they waited for a new home to be found.

Now, I work for the post adoption side of things offering behavioural advice and plan for pups who have landed their forever home but need some extra help settling in to their new roles as sofa hogging, face licking, wireless doorbells!!!

If you have any questions about Sausages or think you might be interested in also volunteering for the charity as a case worker then please get in touch with me or TRF directly! And of course, if you're able to send your next £5 coffee money to the charity we will be so so greatful!

It rained, the new SPARK PAWS coat was smaller than I expected (xxl!🙈🤣) but was SO GOOD at keeping Rupe and Bailey dry and comfortable!! So much less work drying them off afterwards. Love it! Completely my fault I didn't measure before I purchased haha

I was nice and dry in my Craghoppers one too... Although after all that rain I think soem Nikwax Outdoor Innovation will be in order soon this autumn season if the rain continues!

Drip drip drop! ☔ Here comes winter! Note to self: REWATERPROOF AND REPAIR WALKING BOOTS! Someone please remind me too 😂

Awesome Ashy boy!

This 1yr old is a HUGE boy and forgets his size and strength!

Ash and his guardians are working with me to help reduce his excitability and distractability around other dogs. We are also going to do some work on his separation anxiety.

He's a stunning boy and so so loving but at 40kg already and still a lot of growing to do he needs some more boundaries and skills in place before he doubles in size!

Keep an eye out for more Ash content! 👀😍
