25.01.2022 VERY IMPORTANT PSA Yesterday's storm has caused tap water in the Eastern Suburbs to be contaminated.... Vermont,... Boronia, Croydon, Chirnside Park, Bayswater, And more included!! See link to check if your suburb is affected; https://www.3aw.com.au/do-not-drink-contaminated-water-war/ Stay Safe folks

24.01.2022 Should this be classed as: 1) Commitment to your dogs or... 2) Spoiling your Dogs Discuss.....

23.01.2022 To the Dads who said... We're not getting a Dog! It's not sleeping with us! It's not getting on the sofa!... If you want a Dog you can walk it! If you get a Dog I want nothing to do with it..... Y'know you'd do anything for your furry friend...... even pick up it's Poop

22.01.2022 This will be me if Dan Andrews doesn't allow trainers back to work next Sunday

22.01.2022 Morning Peeps I've been a little quiet lately - more to come on this! I've talked before about raw feeding your dog ... Turn your TV's on at lunch and watch Pooches at Play - Narelle Cooke is a professional nutritionist and will be making an appearance on the show! She's VERY knowledgeable about everything raw! You can jump on her website and download the Ebook to help you get started AND she does consultations too!

20.01.2022 For anyone who needs a chuckle Watch it over and over, still as funny as the 1st time And I think I've shared this before, which shows this video (to me anyway) is timeless... See more

19.01.2022 To my wonderful clients and followers.... This afternoon, I received an email from the one and only Andy Meddick MP of The Animal Justice Party He takes Animal Welfare issues to the top Team in Vic Govt!... Now. This email clearly isn't a definite but it's a step closer to get Melbourne Dog Trainers back to work... So... Keep your fingers and toes crossed for me and all the other trainers across the Industry...

19.01.2022 Enrichment doesn't have to be expensive... Mmmaaaaybe I've said that a few times lol But as long as you're sensible & safe, you can pretty much use anything to create enrichment for your dog........ Here's Indie the "Gentle Giant" showing off her place command and loving the game of "get the treat from under the empty strawberry plastic punnet thing"..... I think she wants more though And I think I need to make the name of the game a little more catchy Happy Sunday everyone

19.01.2022 More cheap n cheerful enrichment ideas from WonderPaws . Paddy has natural yoghurt in his diet . So instead of adding it to his food bowl... . I stuck some kibble to sides of the almost empty container . Kept him entertained for a while . Monitor your dog while they're chewing the pot There's a potential risk the tub could split and cut their gums If this happens remove the tub immediately and pop it in your recycling bin #enrichmentgamesfordogs #lifeofadogtrainer #lifeofadogtrainersdog #naturalyoghurtfordogs #lovewhatido

17.01.2022 Awwww Mackie Moo you're making great progress . His owners are soooo committed to their training it's wonderful to see . Mackie's owners started training with me via Zoom... . I cannot wait to see them all when Stage 4 is lifted & get some hands on training . 1st vid shows he pulled like a tank (apologies for the fuzziness ) #committedowners #lovewhatido #looseleash #placetraining #obedientdog #dogobediencetraining #dogtrainingisforlife #dogtrainingvideo #dogsareforlife #dogsofinstagram #wonderpawsdogtraining

16.01.2022 Frankie "The Howler" is knocking her owners socks off!! AND mine!!! . Her #recalltraining is coming along nicely . Being the #mostimportant thing in your dogs world is... well... important....... . As soon as your dog hears "COME" they should turn on their heal and come shooting back . #soproud of team Frankie! #dogtrainingvideo #dogtrainingforlife #dogobediencetrainingofinstagram #rescuedogs #lovewhatido #obediencefordogs #dogsareforlife #dogsofinstagram #dogsdogsdogs #trainingdogsisthebest #trainingdogsisfun

15.01.2022 Using my 1hrs exercise to build Paddy's #recalltraining . No idea of distance But it was pretty far for Paddy . Probably 30-40mtrs ... . Training under mild-high distraction too . So proud of my Boy #recalltraininginprogress #obediencefordogs #obediencetrainingneeded #buildingobedience #lovewhatido #dogparkobedience #obedienceinthedogpark #dogtrainingisforlife #dogtrainingvideo #dogsareforlife #dogslovetolearn #dogsdogsdogs

15.01.2022 Hopefully no-one has had this problem

15.01.2022 Empty Egg Boxes make another cheap n cheerful enrichment game . Fill box with treats & close box . Give the egg box to your dog... . Get their brain juices flowing #braingamesfordogs #dogenrichmnet #lifeofadogtrainer

14.01.2022 SAD NEWS Hey Everyone, Yesterday, I shared Summer's post regarding help with grooming your matted dogs fur.... today, I bring sad news....... Living under Stage 4 restrictions is hard enough on a personal level. Add running a Service based Business under Stage 4 Restrictions increases the difficulty we're facing We (as small business owners) are faced with variables when speaking to many different people on a hotline, when all we want is a definitive answer.... So if someone says "Yes you can help" but someone else says "No you can't and risk a fine of $10k" what would you do? This is why I'm fully supportive of Summers choice to withdraw her grooming services during this lockdown, and I hope you all understand why she's had to make this very difficult decision. Send some love her way she may need it right now!

13.01.2022 Update from Toby's owner :) Today mummy said I was very clever! We did heel training out front and in the Croft before anyone else was awake. And just now, I sat on my mat for the WHOLE TIME she made Anzac biscuits- from weighing out to putting in oven - first sitting then in a drop. With yes and good boy as my only encouragement. Weve just played ball and fetch outside. Well done me!! #placecommandtraining #dogtraining #lovewhatido #dogtrainingneverends #obediencetraining #dogobediencetraining #terriersofinstagram #lifeofadogtrainer

13.01.2022 Something to warm your heart

12.01.2022 A Birthday Bone for the Birthday Boy . Bones are good for Dogs teeth & gums and also acts as enrichment for them . To chew bones takes brain energy!... . Paddy has been sound asleep for the past 2hrs! If feeding bones ensure you give an appropriate size for your dog Do not give them cooked bones Supervise them Check their gums afterwards Ensure fresh water is available #rawbones #bonesfordogs #enrichmentfordogs #dogsandbones #bonesforbreakfast #rawfeeding101 #rawfeedingyourpets

12.01.2022 Are these the cutest ball-boys *EVER* I mean...... Seriously.... I'd pay more attention to the game if this happened at the Aussie Open or any Tennis Open

11.01.2022 GOOD NEWS Grooming Salons are allowed to open from 28th September. Book in with Natalie to get your pooch looking schmick again!! ...

11.01.2022 So. Dog Trainers still aren't 100% sure when we'll go back... But.... Our fight is being publicised even more! Read this article in the Packenham Gazette.... it's a great piece!! and there's a link to the petition at the end too We cannot fight this fight alone... We know there are an abundance of owners who are desperate for help and we know there are heaps of trainers out there feeling like we're in a straight jacket... So we will still fight the big fight.... but we still need YOUR help.... Please sign the petition if you haven't already and SHARE SHARE SHARE Thank you!

09.01.2022 #looseleashwalkingskills is something that needs to be practiced over and over for Dog and Owner . The #leash is used to communicate with your dog . Trainers call it "Pressure on, Pressure off" ... . Here, Paddy checks in with me. Then he goes ahead of me . Notice how the leash goes tight for a split second . That split second of 'Pressure on"' communicated to Paddy 'To far mate... Slow Down' . So he did. He came back to my side #looshleashwalking #obedientdog #lovewhatido #dogsareforlife #dogsneedtraining #dogsofmelbournedogstagram #lifeofadogtrainersdog #lifeofadogtrainer #dogsdogsdogs #dogsthatlisten #dogwalkingmanners #dogwalkinglife #dogswalk #walkingadog #dogwalk #dogtrainingisforlife #dogsofinstagram

05.01.2022 An empty Tissue Box! . Who'd have thought it would be an enrichment toy for Paddy . His 1st priority was to get the treats!... . Then he moved onto destroying the box #dogenrichment #lifeofadogtrainersdog #lifeofadogtrainer #lovewhatido #dogsareforlife #dogs #dogsdogsdogs #obediencefordogs #dogobediencetrainingofinstagram
