Transform Your Dog Today

Structure

Creating a consistent routine for your dog, including meal times, walks, and rest periods. This routine provides predictability and security, helping your dog understand what is expected of them.

Hierarchy

Establishing clear leadership roles within the household, where humans are seen as the leaders or "alphas" of the pack. This ensures clear communication and mutual respect, leading to a harmonious relationship and well-behaved dog.

Control

In dog training, control refers to the ability to manage and influence your dog's behavior effectively. This includes teaching your dog to respond to commands such as sit, stay, and leave it, as well as controlling their impulses and reactions in various situations. With proper control training, you can ensure that your dog behaves appropriately in different environments and situations, promoting safety and harmony.

Recall

Recall, also known as coming when called, is a fundamental skill in dog training that involves teaching your dog to return to you promptly when called, regardless of distractions or distance. A reliable recall is essential for off-leash activities, preventing your dog from running away or getting into potentially dangerous situations. Through consistent training and positive reinforcement, you can teach your dog to respond quickly and reliably to the recall command, allowing you to maintain control and keep them safe in any situation.

Scentwork in dog training involves harnessing a dog's natural ability to detect scents and using it in structured activities. Dogs are trained to search for specific scents hidden in various environments, such as indoors or outdoors. This can include searching for items, tracking scents, or identifying specific odours.

Benefits:

Mental Stimulation

Engaging in scent work provides mental exercise for dogs, stimulating their minds and preventing boredom. This can help reduce problem behaviours caused by a lack of mental stimulation.

Bonding

Working together on scentwork activities strengthens the bond between dogs and their owners. It fosters trust and teamwork as dogs learn to rely on their owners for guidance and support.
Physical Exercise: While scent work may not be physically demanding, it encourages dogs to move around and explore their environment, providing light exercise.

Confidence Building

Successfully finding hidden scents or objects boosts a dog's confidence and self-esteem. It allows them to use their natural abilities in a positive and rewarding way.

Behavioural Benefits

Scentwork can help reduce anxiety and stress in dogs by providing an outlet for their energy and natural instincts. It can also improve focus and impulse control, leading to better overall behaviour.
