Not every dog needs a behaviourist.

…sometimes they need an owner who actually follows through.

Before everyone reaches for the “but my dog has anxiety” comments… hear me out 👀

There are absolutely dogs who need specialist behaviour support. There are cases where veterinary input, medication or a qualified behaviourist is completely appropriate.

But there are also plenty of dogs whose owners have had three trainers, bought five different harnesses, tried every treat known to man and watched approximately 47 hours of TikTok training advice…

…and still aren’t consistently implementing anything.

The dog doesn’t need another strategy.

They need the humans to ACTUALLY stick to one.

Because you can have the perfect training plan, the perfect equipment and the perfect reward…

But if the rules change every day, boundaries are inconsistent and training only happens when there’s a problem, progress is going to be pretty limited.

Sometimes the answer isn’t more information.

It’s more consistency.

Introducing THE SATURDAY SHIFT, built around The Ada Standard.

Good dog training is about more than sits, downs and walking in circles around a field. It’s about building dogs who can do real life, owners with confidence AND a relationship that feels fulfilling for both ends of the lead.

Each week, we will have a different focus for every one of the Ada&Co. Pillars of Success:

• Fulfilment- retrieving, scentwork, cooperative play, flirt pole, spring pole and other activities your dog’s genetics desire.
• Regulation- for both the owner and dog, teaching you how to correctly wind down and exist with your dog in a variety of situations.
• Lifeskills- obedience that actually gives you and your dog the life you deserve day to day, and placed in realistic situations.
• Walks- we all need time to decompress and take in the world. Here, you’ll learn how to be more dog and your dog will have opportunities to correctly socialise.
• Good Coffee- the part we can never forget! The dogs can chill out (and maybe get treated to a little pupcup if they’re good…), we can chat all things training, and friends who understand can be made.

No endless obedience drills.
No standing around waiting for your turn.
No trying to turn every dog into the same dog.

Just practical training, proper fulfilment and dogs learning how to exist in the real world.

The Saturday Shift is coming.

It’s your dog’s time to clock in soon 👀

Food drive isn’t something you have to create by making a dog hungry enough to finally give in. Some dogs will inhale anything vaguely edible (or not, I’m looking at you labradors😂) from day one. Others genuinely need to learn that food is worth engaging with and there are loads of ways to build that without turning mealtimes into a battle of wills.

Use what your dog already values. Make delivery exciting. Let food unlock freedom, play or access to the environment. Teach puppies that they can eat confidently in different places before expecting them to perform obedience there.

And look at the whole picture.

Is your dog too aroused to eat?
Are they overwhelmed by the environment?
Are they filling up on chews, toppers and extras all day?
Has plain food become boring because something better always appears if they wait long enough?
Could a gradual diet change give you something new to build value in?

Ada’s food drive grew massively when food became the gateway to things she actually wanted.
Billy came to me accustomed to daily toppers and expecting something better than his kibble.
And with Maeve, I deliberately spent puppyhood teaching her how to eat everywhere before I cared about getting obedience anywhere.

Different dogs. Different problems. Different solutions.

The aim isn’t you’ll eat because eventually you’ll be hungry enough, even though it’s preached so often that existential feeding = emotional change (news flash, it doesn’t!).

Food drive can be BUILT and no, your dog does not need to be starving to have it.
