There are Rommie rescues who need a little extra help, and then there's Hazel. Hazel landed in sunny Weston demanding to get straight to the only place in town where she can start working through her IMDT Partnership Grades. No second rate qualifications for this young lady!

The Head Boy has been at it again, this time passing Level 5 with aplomb! Vinnie is taking it all in his stride, with his trademark humility and civility. I took this opportunity to ask if he had anything planned for the summer break. He replied, "Sod off, squid face!" Maybe it wasn't a good time

I'm afraid that we're having some technical issues here at The Cheeky Chihuahua, and this time it isn't caused by my middle-aged befuddlement! The contact form on our website hasn't been contacting, so I haven't received any messages that have been sent via that most inappropriately named form. Our Chihuahua Technical Dept is hard at work carrying out repairs, in between nipping ankles and stealing sausages. Could I ask that if you've used the form and haven't had a reply, could you please email on [email protected] or WhatsApp on 07449 322878.

Thanks, Mark

This evening will see our final Puppy Test Week before our summer break. Judging by her new outfit, Lily's feeling pretty confident!

I don't post so much about our behaviour work, but I've been a qualified Behaviourist Practitioner for 12 years, and at one time only worked with Romanian rescue dogs. A steep learning curve for a newbie! Timmy and Tilly are siblings who were found on the streets and eventually came to sunny Somerset. Siblings can bring double the trouble, but building their confidence and addressing their fears will go a long way to get them in the right state of mind to learn that the world's not as scary as they think

Rudi is looking very pleased with herself, and rightly so! Once upon a time, she was somewhat rambunctious, overly enthusiastic, and thoroughly dedicated to doing things that we'd rather she didn't. Nowadays she's winning certificates on a Friday morning, and then starts to get ready to sing in the choir at church on Sundays (ish!)

Our Thursday evening Teenage Tearaways are making the most of the warmer weather and longer evenings, and enjoying classes in the park. Despite the squirrels doing their best to sabotage his efforts, Ralphy stayed focused enough to fly through his IMDT Partnership Grade level 2. Splendid work, that'll show those pesky squirrels!

There's been lots of hard work going on with the baby furry ones recently. They all learnt the basics, in addition to charging through tunnels and over jumps, not to mention learning to track and find a specific scent (in this case, cloves). As you can see, the hard work has paid off and Duke, Isla, Otis, and Teddy have all been awarded the (much-coveted) Cheeky Chihuahua Certificate of Puppy Excellence! Awesome work dudes!

This post is for those in the Cheeky Chihuahua family with 'challenging' dogs, and anyone else who needs a break. I'm sure that you can picture the scene: you're walking to the park with your furry dude emblazoned with so much bright yellow that canaries are reaching are reaching for their sunglasses. Normal members of the human race will see you coming and give you a bit of space, and wish you well. But then, charging out of the blue, comes the dog who has, apparently, brought themselves to the park as there's no owner in sight. And they're heading straight for you. The owner will eventually appear and look up from their phone, and you'll ask them to call their dog away. This is the crunch point: if the first word out of the other owner's mouth isn't, "Sorry", followed by an appropriate explanation, you are officially in the presence of a CONT (crap owner, no training), and the problem is them, not you nor your dog. If I hadn't walked in your shoes, The Cheeky Chihuahua wouldn't be here to help. (Other trainers are available. May contain nuts)

Saturday morning Teenage Tearaways. Of the 5 dogs in the picture, it wasn't too long ago that 4 of them couldn't go near other dogs and/or humans. This wasn't a quick fix, and be wary of anyone who promises such: compassion, patience, and understanding, combined with an ability to work with the dog as an individual, has got these furry dudes to where they are today. Well, that and treats!
