The credit crunch, global recession, bad news on the TV, too much work, not enough time… we all experience stress, don’t we? As humans, we know all too well what the symptoms can feel like – and how it can make us behave. What causes dogs
No, this isn’t a reference to the fact that when most of us are on Facebook there are a hundred other things we ought to be doing instead… it’s my thoughts on dogs that are frequently and regularly walked in a group…. Social dogs enjoy interacting with other
Ah, Christmas. The time of year when friends send cards and… the inevitable Christmas letter… Now, you know the type of thing I mean. Their son just graduated with flying colours at the age of 12, their darling daughter just passed grade 6 on the flute
When stress isn’t stressful Much is now written about stress in dogs – in fact it has become a bit of a trend for dog trainers to be told that dogs should be greeted sideways on, with narrowed eyes and a substantial amount of lip licking. The idea
Ever heard something like this? “I don’t need to train my dog, he’s ….only tiny/is naturally obedient/is good with the family …” You can fill in the blanks… but what I always want to ask, is ‘what about in an emergency?’ Preparing your dog in advance
It’s tempting to think about the quintessential British dog out enjoying the beautiful UK countryside, with green-wellied owner in tow. Of course, many of our dogs do live the perfect country life, ‘hunting, shootin’ and fishin’ (aka, sniffing for squirrels, running in the woods and wallowing
Do you own a Greyhound that sits on command, or a Beagle that comes when it’s called?! Well done! You have managed to put yourself in a class of your own! All too often we are given definitions and descriptions of breed characteristics which we simply
Would you jump off a cliff if someone asked you? How about give your hard-earned money to strangers in the street, just because they told you you should? Simply acting on other people’s advice can be risky if you don’t know what that advice is based
Bringing a new puppy home is an exciting event for humans, but for cats it can seem as if their world has just been torn apart. Even if your cat has been used to living with a dog, the new puppy is nothing like their old,
Getting a new puppy is an exciting event. There he is, all full of hope and promise. And there you stand, all omnipotent, thinking just how important it will be to teach him right from wrong. Well, I have news for you – it’s not the

The 21 Days to a Clever Dog Programme has taken 2 years’ of creation to bring to life, and has been described “the best thing Sarah has ever produced for pet owners and their dogs”.
This project has been a personal goal of Sarah’s for some time, as she has such strong feelings for providing not just the best training for new puppies, but also for older dogs and rescues.
Dogs who perhaps haven’t had the best start, or maybe have been in the background of busy family life and are at times a little tricky – these are the dogs this programme was made for.
With the 21 Days to a Clever Dog Programme, it’s their time to shine.
Unlike traditional canine training programmes, this course doesn’t do the boring basics, in fact we have torn up the training rule book to give you the most effective, proven methods to train your dog swiftly whilst ensuring you both have fun in the process! It’s really unique!

Curious about the ThinkDog! Practical course?
I don`t want to take up your time, but what I would say is that people genuinely tell me time and time again that the course changed their outlook and practical skills, forever!
This course is designed to give you:
✅ Access to in-depth, applicable, behavioural knowledge, that you won`t get anywhere else
✅ Practical hands-on training skills - the `walking on lead` tuition is worth the course fee in itself! (It`s sooo simple and effective, when you know how!)
✅ Confidence in yourself to do the work! That`s my mojo right there.
