We did nose work stuff tonight. Now she is exhausted 💕My Piper is full on. Like FULL on. When we do nose work stuff - she is ON. Oh my wordy lordy she's ON. Seriously! She's crazy!!! ( She's a bit like me at a party... 😳 ).She wants to be on the course working the whole time. She has no patience waiting! None!This is new to me. I have never had a dog that has difficulties switching off. Kubo was a bit of hard work teaching chill, but when he got it, he got it. He is perfect though ... Piper forgets... 🙄💕Now - Piper is brilliant normally, but this nose work stuff - she's off the charts. She loves it.I will now be working on teaching her to 'chill' while off the circuit, teach her to come on to the circuit calmly, wait, then signal to 'find'.It's a work in progress... In the meantime... I might have to invest in ear plugs for the rest of the crew 🙄🤣I'm learning some new stuff. I love it!Take the time.Train your dog.#kelpiecross#kelpiemix#dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

The darling husband and I have been stopped a few times lately as people have recognised Kubo 💕He is a show stopper - definitely 😍It is quite a nice feeling when people stop and have a chat and remark about his and Piper's manners 🥹Wasn't a fluke though. Lots of time, patience and hard work.Take the time.Train your dog.#blackdog#blackgsd #blackgermanshepherd #kelpiecross #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

I love days out with the darling husband, Kubo and Piper.I constantly get people telling me how well trained Kubo and Piper are... The darling husband - not so much 🤣😍I put millions of hours of work into both my dogs. Hours and hours and hours. Not hours each day. I might do formal training for short sessions, but everything else is shaping and guiding.I had a clear view of what I wanted Kubo and Piper to be as adult dogs and took them on that journey.It does not mean giving too much freedom because you think your dog needs to run around like an idiot.It does not mean checking out on your dog so you can Tik Toc, or Instagram, or Facebook or whatever the going media platform is these days.It means connecting with my dogs.It means clear, concise communication.It means watching and rewarding my dogs when they make great choices.It means playing and having fun with my dogs.It means wanting to listen and be with my dogs.Take the time.Train your dog.#blackdog#blackgsd#blackgermanshepherd #kelpiecross #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtraining #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

When one of your favourite students sends you a photo of their glorious dog just chilling and watching their family members doing sports - it makes my world sparkle.Sometimes as trainers we try to explain what impulse control is... What chilling means... What teaching your dog to do nothing means - and a lot of people don't 'get' it... 😞It means just being chill. It means being able to quietly hang out with you while you watch your kids playing sport. It means you have taught your dog to regulate their arousal levels to whatever is going on around them.You've taught them to 'be' with you.If you are having issues with this - email me at pawfectbehaviour@gmail.com Let's chat.Take the time Train your dog.#blackdog #blackgsd #blackgermanshepherd #kelpiecross #rodesianridgeback #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

The Spice Girls 💗💕🥰They are still here 💕Wasabi ( short hair ) is doing well in spite of having heart/lung/kidney stuff going on. She's prancing around like a boss. She trusts me 110% which is huge as she doesn't give that lightly 😍. She's also one of my Kubo's favourites 💕Cumin ( long hair ) is just cruising. She is so cool. She is my floor monitor, my little snuggle buddy, she's smart as a whip and she and my Piper are besties 💕Love them both so very much 💕 You know you needed a spice girl update 💕You are welcome!#chihuahua #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

This glorious little creature came to puppy class tonight. My right hand lady.However... She got so very excited when she saw the beautiful vet nurses at Belrose Veterinary Hospital 🙄 carried on like a pork chop... 🙄🤣She then got super excited when my lovely students came in... 🙄🤣So I simply popped her on tie up to watch the class.She lay down and calmed herself. She was periodically rewarded for just chilling.This is what I am going to do each class now as she needs to learn to regulate herself in this situation.Training never stops.

Here's the thing...To have a blue tooth connection with your dog - you need to EARN it. You need to layer up a foundation of communication, a foundation of trust, a foundation of respect, a foundation of engagement, a foundation of confidence.You need to show your dog you are the shelter they need in order to follow you in a happy, healthy, confident state.Nothing to do with dominating your dog. That's barbaric.It is all about being your dog's safe space.It's about going forward with your dog as a beautiful partnership.But here's the thing. It's about being confident in taking your dog forward.Structure, guidelines, boundaries.People aren't partners with their dogs anymore.Change it. Step up.If you are having issues... Email me at pawfectbehaviour@gmail.com Take the time.Train your dog.#blackdog #blackgsd #kelpiecross #kelpiemix #blackgermanshepherd #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

My Piper 💕She's not a lady.She is, however, a phenomenal little pup who follows, had the ability to make amazing choices and she's just too much fun.I tell my students that my Piper isn't the dog I would have chosen. She isn't.She's Kelpie/Koolie/Border Collie/Staffy.A cocktail of complete crazy...I had Impostor Syndrome when I decided to adopt her as I always teach my students to know the breed and fulfil their needs.Piper was a bit manic when I got her. Took a lot of patience, commitment, and communication to show her what I needed.I also had to learn from her as to what she needed.Now - she's so groovy! Seriously. She's party starter.She's the one you want 💕She's phenomenal.She's a super sensitive soul who has the most beautiful meet and greet... I think she might be channelling my Queen - Daisy 💗So.I took the time.I trained my dog.You do it too...#kelpiecross #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies#northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

I do small, casual classes on Saturday mornings in Frenchs Forest.Yesterday I had 5 gorgeous dogs learning about lead skills and impulse control. These classes are very relaxed. The aim is for each dog to chill out on their spot while waiting to be called out for an exercise.Some find it difficult. Others settle in very quickly.This photo is of gorgeous Douglas, who fell asleep before his owners got to the Roseville Bridge 💕I also have pay as you go classes on Friday afternoons in Elanora Heights too. These classes have more dogs in them.Something for everyone.For more information, email me at pawfectbehaviour@gmail.comTake the time.Train your dog.#dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

Dog Park etiquette.Here's the thing...If your dog is a bully - you should not have them off lead in a dog park.If your dog is a pest - up in other dog's grills and doesn't leave them alone - you should not have your dog off lead in a dog park.If your dog has no recall - you should not have your dog off lead in a dog park.If you expect other people/dogs to entertain your dog - you should not have your dog off lead in a dog park.If you try and stand up for yourself because you are advocating for your dog - expect to be verbally trounced! These people think that a dog park is a free for all where their ill mannered dog can do whatever it wants and if you disagree... well...Don't let these people keep you quiet. Keep standing up for your dog. Loud and clear!Take the time.Train your dog.#kelpiecross #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

So here's the thing...To achieve engagement with your dog... You need to teach them where you are.If you set them loose too quickly and they have way too much fun without you... You are on the back foot. They are out to party!You need to establish a firm foundation with your dog that means fun, comfort, security, direction and engagement.It means listening to instructions. It means you are in control of your dog's situation at all times.If your dog doesn't believe this... They can't listen to you.You haven't taught them to find you. You haven't taught them to stop and listen to you. You haven't taught them to engage.We let our dogs have far too much freedom far too early - we don't form a solid foundation.Take the time.Train your dog.#blackdog#blackgsd#blackgermanshepherd #kelpiecross #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespets #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

So... Here's the thing...Why take your dog out to the park then proceed to completely ignore them???Sit on the bench tick tocking, Instagramming, YouTubing, messengering, Facebooking, yacking on the phone to a friend, dawdling around yacking to a friend...All the time your dog is leaving giant messages around the place, running up and charging into dogs, nicking toys, jumping up on people 🙄🤬Or they nick toys... If you are asked to get said toy from your dog and return it... But your dog flips you the bird and proceeds to turn into an Olympic sprinter...Or - here's the best one... You have done tick tocking, Instagramming, YouTubing, messengering, Facebooking and yacking on the phone to your friend or dawdling around yacking to your friend and you want to leave... 🤣🤣🤣Yeah. Good luck you loser. Your dog has just had the best time WITHOUT you.Seriously people. BE with your dog! If you aren't interested in your dog when you take them out... How can you expect them to be interested, or want to be with you?Pfft...Take the time.BE with your dog.#blackdog #blackgsd #blackgermanshepherd #kelpiecross #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

The little fellow wanted to follow along with us 🤣It is important to build a strong bond and foundation with your dog. Both Kubo and Piper know that they are not allowed to charge in.

So... Here's the thing...If you take your dog to an off lead dog park, then proceed to sit, text, Facebook, Tick Tock, chat etc and completely ignore your dog so they can poop everywhere, get up in other people and dog's grills and generally be a pest and you think this is ok... ??? 😡🤬And if you think it is ok to leave your dog in the dog park while you run/cycle around the out side so your dog runs after you like a crazed Velociraptor on crack??? Then when they aren't barreling after you, they are doing whatever they want while you get your exercise... 😡🤬How is this being with your dog? I don't get it...Why is it that so many people think they are above the rules and have their dogs off lead in leash only areas? Gob smacked...On the positive side, there were lots of people today with glorious dogs - actually being with their dogs 💕Take the time.BE with your dog.#blackdog#blackgsd #blackgermanshepherd #kelpiecross #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

Yep... Weird photo ... But it is a photo that means a lot 💕My Wasabi has made Piper work for attention. Piper in turn respected boundaries and listened.I did help here. You can see them both snogging 😍Multi dog house holds usually make the mistake of letting the youngest dog tire themselves out with the older dog...The problem here is the younger dog learns to be a bully and not read the subtle queues from the older dog.It's lazy and not advocating for the older dog.People think the older dog will/should correct the younger dog - but that is quite the wrong thing to think.Most dogs are driven to correction by being pushed too far. The older dog may under correct and the puppy learns to push harder, or the older dog may over correct and harm the puppy.Result is that you have not advocated for your older dog at all, but you have now taught your puppy some undesirable behaviours and leveled up some anxiety in your older dog.Both Piper and Kubo listen and love being with Cumin and Wasabi 💕Don't be lazy.Take the time.Train your dog.#blackdog #blackgsd #blackgermanshepherd #kelpiecross #chihuahua #kelpiemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

Teach your dog to chill...Teach your dog to just do nothing...If you don't, your dog is never going to be able to control their impulses.If your dog is always constantly high and doesn't know how to switch off, they will be a nightmare to walk, too excited meeting people, like they are on crack when you take them out anywhere etc... 😳Recall - well forget that... 🙄You are looking at two very high drive dogs here - Kubo 😍 - a working line German Shepherd Dog and Piper 😍 - a farm bred Kelpie/Koolie/Border Collie mix.Both built to work. Both on. But both able to stop, chill and listen.Teaching them to just chill enables me to have a relaxing time at home and out.Teaching them to chill enables them to "listen" and take in what is going on around them.Just teach your dog to chill. You won't regret it.It doesn't mean quashing their personality.

Just did a spot of gardening and it is blistering out there 🥵Supposed to reach 40 degrees today - I reckon it's not far off!We are now locked inside in the air-conditioning.I have filled my critter bowls with water for the wildlife in my garden.Several water bowls are set up for my dogs.If you need to go out, ensure there is plenty of shade and fresh water - lots of it - for your pets.Watch the footpaths and roads - they will be boiling under your dog's paws, though personally, I wouldn't be doing too much today in this heat...Food games and enrichment toys and practising place training are some ideas you could do with your dog.Try to stay cool everyone 🥵#heatwave#blackdog#blackgsd #blackgermanshepherd #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

It's been 4 years since Queen Daisy left us to trot over the rainbow bridge and take control of my dogs there - Toby, Meeka and Lucky Dog 💗Tiny as she was, she was mighty in personality 😍She was so instrumental in helping me raise Kubo to be the dog he is today 💕Tiny as she was - she put up with absolutely NO crap from this big boy!When he was a 9 week old puppy he got too bolshy with her and she let him have it 😳😍She was a confident little dog and in this instance, I let it play out.Don't get me wrong - I absolutely advocate for my dogs and generally step in, but she had it covered 💪It was a moment I will never forget! But the bond this then caused between the two of them helped me to guide a big, intense dog to be gentle, caring and kind.I also think it helped to shape him to become more considered as The Queen was so small, but mighty - he listened.This photo popped up in my memories. I can smile about The Queen now 💕There will never be anoither ike her. Our Kubo is being the perfect coach for our willful Princess Piper... It's a job and he and I are doing it together... 🤣🤣🤣Take the time.KNOW your dog.#blackdog#blackgsd#blackgermanshepherd #maltesemix #dogtraining #dogtrainer #dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...

Bentley ( front ) and Mabel ( back ) are two little dogs I've done training with their owners.Both beautiful dogs are awesome members of our society because their gorgeous owners stepped up and did the training.Daughter no. 2 sent me this photo of Bentley and Mabel chilling in their beds while the girls are having a catch up.Most people take their dogs to someone's place and let them rip... That is a NO from me.If you are lucky enough to take your dog to someone's place - take them on lead, take them inside and put them on their bed to take it all in.When they are calm, take them outside to get their boundaries. Do it in a calm manner. ONLY release your dog when they are in the right headspace to listen to instructions. If they aren't, keep them on lead.If you are going to a place where the existing dog may not have the training your dog has - DON'T TAKE YOIR DOG...Take the time.Train your dog.#dogtraining#dogtrainer#dogsofnorthernbeaches #northernbeacheslocal #northernbeachespuppies #northernbeaches #northernbeachesdogs ...
