🐾 "My dog is a tool!!" 🐾.

As a trainer, this is something I hear daily:
"She is wired today!"
"He is on one today!"
"She’s too excited to listen!"…….

Top secret:
They aren't actually being naughty. They are feeding off your energy and are unsure of what is expected of them..We all carry a level of baggage with us daily. Depending on how you as a handler are feeling, your dog will, without fail pick up on it. They see it. They smell it! .

How to deal with it:
There are things you can do, but the most important first step is to take a few slow, deep breaths. This simple action immediately relaxes your posture and reassures your dog that everything is okay.

We can also work on calming circles. Yes, believe it or not, this exercise relaxes us just as much as it relaxes the dog! It forces a reset, brings the focus back to a quiet rhythm, and grounds you both as a team..

Once you have achieved that focus, stay calm and use clear commands in a gentle manner. No shouting. No repeating. .

By doing this, you are reinforcing the fact that everything is okay and there is absolutely no need for them to be on high alert..

Above all, try to enjoy the time with your dog. Let that relationship be your escape from daily worries or stresses. Admittedly, there will be some days when this just won’t be possible, on those days, don’t expect miracles from your dog.
More often than not, they will be perfectly happy to just sit and relax with you. .

Let’s be honest, their sometimes quirky behaviour makes us smile every day. Guaranteed, your dog will restore your peace, your smile, and your focus if you just give them the chance. .

Next time you feel your dog spinning out of control, slow down, breathe, and reset together. 🐾😍

It’s a partnership, not a dictatorship🐾😊

At the end of the day, it’s not about being a bossy pack leader. It’s just down to clear communication, mutual trust, and a dog that absolutely loves its job!

⛵ From Master Craftsmanship to Canine Communication: The Story Behind “Sitting Dog” 🐾.
My name is Adrian and for 35 years I worked as a boatbuilder. In that trade, you quickly learn that you cannot rush raw materials, you cannot force a bad fit, and success depends entirely on building a rock solid foundation. If the structural framework isn’t right, the vessel won’t hold. When I transitioned into professional dog training and founded Sitting Dog, I brought that exact same philosophy with me. Dog training isn’t about using physical force or hunting for overnight “quick fixes”, it’s about patience, precision, and clear communication. Just like crafting a fine vessel, shaping a reliable companion dog requires time, consistency, and a deep understanding of how the pieces fit together. At “Sitting Dog”, we focus on engineering a calm, attentive partnership between you and your dog. We teach you how to read your dog’s subtle body language, time your rewards perfectly, and build a relationship based on mutual trust and focus. Whether you are starting fresh with a young dog or looking to tighten up everyday manners, we provide the structured, real world blueprints you need to enjoy a well behaved family companion. 📍 Based in South Devon | Building Foundations That Last.🛠️ I am currently booking spaces for our upcoming foundation setups across South Devon.

Can your spaniel do this? 🤔👇

Most pet spaniels can:
🔥 Hunt like they are possessed.
🪵 Retrieve at 30 yards like a demon.

But can they:
🛑 Stop on the whistle like hitting a brick wall?
🚀 Recall away from distractions like an Exocet missile?
🚪 Sit and wait at the door to let you go first?

Notice something different in this video?
There are zero verbal commands. 🤫

The hand on the door handle is the cue. That’s true impulse control—teaching the dog to read the environment and choose patience without you needing to repeat "stay" a dozen times.
Real-world pet gundog training is all about teaching high-drive dogs how to find their off-switch.
