Another amazing Sunday mantrailing!

We had a brilliant variety of teams out with us this week, all at different stages of their mantrailing journey and working on different skills.

A special mention has to go to Floyd, who is now blind but is still absolutely loving his mantrailing! His eyesight might have changed, but that nose certainly hasn’t. It was fantastic watching him get out there and work his trails.

That’s one of the things I love about mantrailing. We can adapt the training to the individual dog in front of us, regardless of age, breed or ability.

Super proud of all the teams and another fantastic morning on the trails!

Fantastic morning of training in Porthcawl!

This morning we were out working with a few of our regular dogs, each progressing towards their individual goals.

• Arres – working on calmly passing other dogs without reacting.
• Dougal – a friendly, overexcited dog learning to stay calm around people and other dogs.
• Hunter – continuing to build neutrality and confidence around other dogs.

Reactivity isn’t something that’s “fixed” overnight. It’s about building the right skills, creating positive experiences, and helping dogs make better choices in real-world environments.

Really pleased with everyone’s progress today. Consistency pays off. 👏

What a Mantrailing Introduction!

Everyone was fantastic, and the progress from both the dogs and their handlers by the end of the session was incredible.

We had a great mix of breeds joining us on Sunday’s Introduction:

• Jasper – Cavapoo x
• Ollie – Mixed breed
• Bax – Lurcher x Collie
• Tiberius – German Shepherd, 4 months old 😍
• Callie – Collie x
• Sherlock – Bloodhound, 7 months old 😍

You should all be really proud of what you achieved. It was brilliant to see so many teams grow in confidence throughout the morning, and we can’t wait to see you all again on the Progression Sessions.

If you missed this Introduction Workshop, don’t worry. Our next Introduction Workshop is on 20th September, giving you the chance to discover just how capable your dog can be while building confidence, teamwork and a stronger partnership together.

Spaces are limited and always fill quickly, so don’t leave it too long to book.

Let’s talk about this weather! ☀️🐶

With another week or so of warm weather ahead, now’s a good time to think about helping our dogs cope with the heat.

One thing I’d recommend is a good quality cooling coat. The two I’ve seen and been impressed with are the Ruffwear Swamp Cooler and the Non-stop Dogwear Cooling Vest.

They won’t make it safe to walk in the heat of the day, but they can help your dog stay cooler on early morning or late evening walks, when temperatures are lower but humidity can still be high.

Another bit of kit worth considering is an Aluminet shade sheet. If you’re parking up to walk, it helps reflect the sun and keeps your vehicle cooler while you’re out.

Every dog is different, so always assess the conditions and your own dog before heading out.

Have you found any cooling products that actually work? Let me know in the comments!
