What a lovely day

Today was beautiful, a reminder that summer hasn't totally left us yet.  Warm and bright the only down side was that the grass at our field still hasn't been cut but that didn't deter many.
The groups were full of fun and play and lots happening as always.  The pups were learning their recalls and field commands plus lots more.  The owners were learning when to break it up and when to leave it alone, what their pups were saying to each other and how to cope best living with a puppy.  We all know how hard that can be at times.
Our later class saw Treacle the DDB actually joining a group.  She is a strong girl and a lot to handle but she coped well today and so did Terry & Lesley.  Well done.
Reuben & Tilly spent the class with me working on their reactionary behaviour.  It went really well and the owners went away with lots of new things to practice.
The classes, be they for puppy or problem dog are about us educating the owner on how to connect and correct their dogs behaviours.  It is a long road for some but we offer support every step of the way.
Well done to everyone.
