​Had some leftover pink and yellow fleece while prepping Nosey Nudgers for our first event next month, and accidentally summoned a 90s icon. Should I make a limited batch of these Mr. Blobby snuffle balls, or is the chaos too powerful?

Let me know! πŸ›‘πŸ‘‡

My Face-plant in Manchester: A Dog Training Reality Check

I headed over to The Snow Centre, Manchester, on the 12th of April for a bit of a day trip on a snowboard. It was cracking, but I spent a fair amount of time on my backside!

As I was sitting there in the snow, it hit me. I was experiencing exactly what your dogs feel when we ask them to learn a new skill or behaviour.

Being a total beginner again reminded me that learning is hard work; it is physical, mental, and really tiring. It has totally shifted my mindset on how we should approach positive dog training.

We often expect our dogs to get it right the first time, but sometimes they just need us to be a bit more patient and offer the right goodies to keep them motivated.

I have shared the full story and the three big things I learned about the "learner mindset" over on the blog. If you have ever felt like your dog is speaking a different language, this is a must read.

Check out the blog below

When was the last time you tried to learn a new skill? Did it make you feel more patient with your dog during a mooch, or did you just want to give up and have a brew?

Let me know in the comments!

I swapped the lead for a board at The Snow Centre Manchester. See why finding your flow is the best way to get a Proper dog training mindset.

Tell you what, this might be the best news I’ve had all week... we are going to be indoors! πŸ πŸŽ„

So, while the forecast is looking a bit "fresh" (that’s polite for freezing πŸ₯Ά) this Saturday, you can come down to the Dogs Trust Leeds Christmas Fair, have a mooch around, and stay properly warm and dry while you do it.

I’m really looking forward to this one. It’s a great cause, and I’ll be set up with a full table of PayTheDog goodies:

πŸ₯© Natural Treats: Stock up on the healthy stuff before the Christmas indulgence kicks in.

🧣 The Bandanas: I’ve got the deadstock fabric rails with me, including some limited festive patterns that look cracking on the collar.

🎁 New Snuffle Toys: Freshly handmade and perfect for keeping busy brains occupied on those rainy winter days.

If you’re local to Leeds/Wakefield or fancy a trip to help support an amazing dog charity , come say hello.

No wellies required (unless you want to make a fashion statement). πŸ˜‰

See you inside! 🐾

Where: Dogs Trust Leeds, LS15 4NL
When: This Saturday (29th), 11am – 3pm

Oh, the accuracy of 'dog math' is just spot on, isn't it? πŸ˜‚ We've all seen this play out in our living rooms! One toy disappears into the abyss under the sofa, and suddenly, apparently, all the toys cease to exist. Proper drama!

Jeffery is a total master of this particular brand of arithmetic. The frantic nose-poking, the forlorn sighs... it’s like his entire world has ended because one squeaky ball rolled just out of reach.

Bless him!

Does your pup have a unique take on toy ownership or a favourite hiding spot for their treasures? Share their funniest toy-related antics below – I'm sure we've all got a story or two! πŸ‘‡
