Building some confidence with Luna, she hates things that make noise like rustling bags and paper. So an Amazon delivery box has become her enrichment, a few treats thrown inside for her snuffle through and explore. She was initially nervous, but soon began pulling the paper out and climbing into the box. 👏🏻

Luna is usually very reactive walking down a street in Falkirk as a couple of houses have dogs in their back gardens at the gates. We've been spending a lot of time working on keeping Luna engaged with me going past but nothing was really sticking. A couple of days ago I tried using a "watch me" prompt. The video shows today's progress, she wasn't fully engaged but 10x better than she'd usually be, and was loose lead walked the entire way instead of having to keep correcting her into a heal and didn't bark or growl at the garden gates at all. This is a massive step for Luna, as up until about 3 weeks ago we had started to avoid this road completely due to her reactivity around these houses. Very proud mum!

Chip went to dobbies garden centre on Saturday with lots of other dogs there and had 0 reactions! Today chip went to the beach where we dropped his long line and he came back when called every single time even around birds/another 2 dogs which we wouldn’t have even imagined was possible a couple months back! I think introducing E collar training may be the best thing we’ve done as the freedom chip is starting to get is bringing him and us so much joy 🤩

Zeus done absolutely amazing today 🙌. We went to 2 different garden centres and pets at home. We only seen a few dogs and one we had to pass closer and I would normally have. Zeus done great he didn't react to any of them. We had a wee seat at one garden centre and he settled within a couple minutes. Such a big improvement 👏

Had a lovely walk at Dalkeith Country Park today. Starting to give Luna more trust off the lead, her recall is so much better! Had a small hiccup though today, something caught her eye and she gave chase towards a steep drop into a crevice, but she turned right around just as she got to the edge and came bounding back. Lesson learned - not ready for woodland off lead just yet! Good settling session at the cafe with about 10 other dogs wandering about, not a single bark at another dog on our walking route either. Very happy mumma 👏🏻 🐾
