What a nose!!
Little Archie working through some sniffari games. Using some cones and every time Archie looks at them he gets a treat, then we encourage him to put his nose in them and treat release. After a few reps he was all over the game! What a little champ! @Maria Sirianni

📢 Big Announcement for the Walkys Community…
Something really exciting is happening behind the scenes at Walkys, and we can’t wait to share it with you. Over the past few months we’ve been building, refining, and dreaming about how we can make this community even more valuable for every dog owner here. We’re getting close, and in August we’ll be making a big announcement that we think you’re going to love. Before we lock everything in, we’d love your help. 💬 If we were to run a live community call, what day and time works best for you? Drop your answer in the comments so we can make it as accessible as possible for everyone. 🎁 We’ll also be giving away some awesome prizes during the live and, as always, you’ll walk away with plenty of free training, education, and practical advice you can start using with your dog straight away. We’re genuinely excited about where this community is heading, and we’re so grateful you’re on the journey with us. See you in the comments! 👇🐾

Getting comfy🫶
Question for Nath and team
Hopefully you can give some guidance on how to calm gypsy in the outside world? She’s awesome walking down a road that doesn’t heavy traffic with people or dogs.. She is great with the sit stay etc We have watched her videos where in a controlled environment she was walking amongst dogs she got minimally distracted .. But She is still getting over anxious when placed in a busier environment.. Whilst the training Eliza and the rest of the team have done are doing has been awesome, we are wondering if one on one for Gypsy would be best suited to her situation, we took on Lexie’s advice today changing our commands to what you all use (to avoid confusion) to see if this would help , but she still barked ( adding wagging tail) whilst walking as well as when she was laying down taking in the sites🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ Any advice on next steps would be appreciated, as we are not confident training in a controlled environment Is the option for her? Thanks Jan & Mike

@Jennifer Mcfarlane hi Jennifer thanks for your message, gypsy loves her walks too, just not busy places and other dogs sets her on edge, She had a good outing today wasn’t as busy and only few dogs her tolerance wasn’t over the edge today, 🙌 Can only get better🐾🐾 Hope your girl reaches her goals 💞🐾
Taking it all in!!
Gypsy calmly enjoying watching the hustle & bustle of the marina today, was ok with some doggy’s, showing a marked improvements after her 2 week of the academy… Thanks Eliza your doing an awesome job with gypsy on her reaction to other four legged babies,
Taking it all in!!

@Lex Stephens thanks for your input lex, and yes agree with you many dogs can hold reactions whilst sitting and watching the world go by, unfortunately not Gypsy she was attacked by another dog that was known to her for no apparent reasons, now we are rebuilding her confidence in herself along with the trust that she can relax and rest up with other dogs around.. Since being with Walkys Gypsy is showing more confidence when walking in a busier environment with other dogs now, this exercise was suggested by Eliza to help gypsy taking in her surrounds in a calm setting to build further awareness, acceptance and confidence, which is working really well for her, which is an added extra to rebuild her trust in the world!👌👌💞

@Sian Isaac thanks for your feedback Sian, she’s only sitting for short periods, whilst we grab a coffee or lunch then we are off again to find a spot for picnic time, gypsy does love her puppy chinos! Then of for long walk back to the car.. Process is working well, and having gypsy being happy & confident again is a positive goal for us all🎉🎉🫶🐾
