Jean learning mousey, mousey, a fun self impulse control game. Like everything else, impulse control has to be learned for all creatures.

Lottie is a mixed breed rescue. She's not had the best of starts and due to that she's got some brain damage, this doesn't mean she can't train, it means we have to adapt to her needs and give her time to process.

Another session with Rocco, down at a local park. He was taught a new pattern game, that we'll use later on. He did really well seeing some dogs too.

Rocco, is overly excited when he sees dogs. Helping him starts slowly and calmly, with distance so he can process. We gradually close distance in layers.

Old dogs can learn new tricks! Rupert who's 8 and previously lived in a very rural location so wasn't on lead very often so he never learned about walking nicely on the Lead. We finished with a Sausage tree which he loved.
