Training your dog isn’t just about teaching commands.

It’s about building the skills they need to navigate everyday life with you. Around dogs, distractions, new environments and everything in between.

These are 10 basic things I believe every owner should be working on from day one.

You don’t need to wait until there’s a problem to start training.

Structure. Consistency. Clear communication.
That’s where it starts.

The Level Up Club Week 4 🔥

Recall week!

Recall is one of the biggest things you should be prioritising in your training. Every dog deserves the opportunity to have off-lead freedom, and for us, that’s non-negotiable.

This week we’re focusing on building that reliable recall and giving the dogs the skills they need to enjoy more freedom safely.

Also… please excuse the croaky voice 😂

Does any of this sound familiar? 👀

The adolescence stage isn’t a time to let your dog practise every unruly behaviour because “they’re just being a teenager.”

It’s a crucial stage of development, and the habits and experiences they build now can influence the adult dog they become.

Stay consistent. Keep guiding them. Don’t just wait for them to grow out of it.

You never know what’s going to come around the corner. 🐎

Bridleways can be a lot busier than people realise, and it’s not just about horses.

When you’re out with your dog, especially somewhere you know horses may be present, having a reliable recall is important, but so is having a backup plan for those moments when things don’t go exactly how you expected.

Because when a situation involves a horse, a split second can make a huge difference.

Train for the unexpected, not just the situations you know you’re going to face.

If you’re saying “sit, sit, sit, SIT” until your dog eventually sits… you’re not actually teaching them to listen to the first cue.

And this doesn’t just apply to “sit.”

Recall, down, place, heel, leave it, whatever the command is, repeating it over and over can quickly teach your dog that they don’t need to respond the first time.

One cue. Then follow through.
