Guidance. Communication. Structure.

Three simple things that helped this young Pomski overcome the reactivity and unwanted behaviour he was showing towards every dog he saw when out in public.

A big part of the process wasn’t just training the dog, it was giving his owners a basic, easy-to-follow structure that they could confidently use in everyday life.

By improving their communication, providing clearer guidance and creating consistency, the owners became more confident in how to handle situations. The dog started to understand exactly what was expected of him.

Clear communication creates better understanding.
Better structure creates more confidence.
And confident handling creates clearer guidance for the dog.

Dog training doesn’t need to be complicated. It needs to be clear, consistent and repeatable.

Is this a common sight when your dog sees their trigger?

Do you feel like your dog is constantly sat on a knife edge, ready to react at any moment?

Are walks becoming stressful because you’re always watching for the next dog, person, noise or situation that might set them off?

Surely… You want to take away the stress, hassle and embarrassment and start enjoying being out with your dog again?

From Limited Exposure to Clear Communication!

Meet this Cocker Spaniel, who was rehomed after previously being used as a breeding stud.

During his earlier life, he had received very limited socialisation, environmental exposure and regular exercise, particularly around unfamiliar dogs and the wider outside world.

When we began training, one of our biggest priorities wasn’t simply teaching behaviours, it was creating a clear and reliable communication system between dog and his owners.

Before we could expect him to make better choices in challenging environments, we needed him to understand exactly what his handler was asking of him.

Through consistent communication, clear markers and reinforcement, we began building value in the behaviours the handler wanted, while giving the dog greater clarity about what was expected of him.

As that communication became more reliable, we could gradually introduce dogs, people, movement and different environments while maintaining the same expectations.

The goal wasn’t simply exposure.

It was teaching him how to behave and communicate with his handler during that exposure.

Great to see such a fantastic range of different working breeds joining us for today’s Gun Dog Foundations Taster & Introduction Session.

A brilliant opportunity to introduce dogs and handlers to the foundations of gundog training, building engagement, confidence, control and natural working ability through practical exercises.

After watching a distance control challenge from a trial over the weekend, I thought I’d give it a go myself…

It started well, progressed exactly as planned, and I was feeling pretty pleased with how it was coming together…

Then I sent the video to the Gun Dog group chat… ( & )

Somehow, the distance control challenge quickly turned into “can you drink a beer while the dog pulls you in the cart!!” 🍺😂

Safe to say, that wasn’t part of the original training plan, but dog training can change during the session right?

It’s back!!!

Our 5-Part Livestock Neutrality Course

A well-trained dog should be able to remain calm, focused, and under control around livestock. Our 5-Part Livestock Neutrality Course has been designed to safely introduce dogs to sheep horses, birds and other farm animals, helping them develop confidence, self-control, and appropriate behaviour in a controlled environment. Through progressive training sessions, you’ll learn how to manage your dog’s instincts, improve engagement, and build reliable obedience around real-life distractions. It’s not just about better training, it’s also about responsible dog ownership. Under the Dogs (Protection of Livestock) Act, owners can face serious consequences if their dog worries or attacks livestock, including prosecution, significant fines, and in severe cases, the dog may be seized or even euthanised. This course gives you the skills and confidence to help ensure your dog can safely coexist around livestock while protecting both your dog and the animals it encounters.
