You guys know how passionate we are about what goes into your dogs' bowls! 🐶 We care so much about nutrition that we've partnered with LifeWise to give your dogs access to incredible quality food, AND we continue to provide you guys with FREE access to canine nutritionists to make sure you're feeding what's right for your dog. But we wanted to take it one step further... I'm bloody proud to announce that our entire LifeWise range is now available on the Walkys website, delivered STRAIGHT TO YOUR DOOR! 🚚💙 (FREE delivery over $60) And we've built in some pretty awesome features to make feeding your dog easier than ever! 🐕 A personalised feeding calculator! Enter your dog (or dogs') weight and find out: - Exactly how much to feed each day - How long a bag will last - What you're actually spending per day 📦 NEVER RUN OUT OF FOOD AGAIN! By the end of this week, you'll be able to set up automatic deliveries based on how long your dog's food lasts. No more realising you're down to the last scoop! 💰 PAY WEEKLY! Rather than getting hit with the cost of a whole bag every time you run low, you can spread the cost into manageable weekly payments. 🥩 THE RIGHT FOOD. THE RIGHT AMOUNT. DELIVERED WHEN YOU NEED IT. Nutrition is one of the foundations of a happy, healthy, well-balanced dog. And if we can make getting that right easier for our families, we're all for it!

SIX WEEKS. SIX SKILLS. TWO PACKS. ONE HELL OF A CHALLENGE! 🐕🐺 Here we are, legends… SKILL 6: INTRO TO RECALL is officially LIVE in the classroom! 🙌🏻 And we've saved one of the BEST for last! For the past five weeks, you've been building engagement, communication, impulse control and trust with your dogs. Now it's time to bring it ALL together and introduce some FREEDOM! 💪🏻 This week we're teaching our dogs that coming back to us isn't the end of the fun… it's the BEST part! Because great recall isn't about control. It's about building a relationship where your dog CHOOSES you, even when the world around them is more exciting. And THAT is what this entire challenge has been building towards. ❤️ Honestly, watching the progress, the videos, the encouragement and the support between both packs over these six weeks has been bloody incredible. Matt and I couldn't be prouder of you all! 🏆 BUT WE'RE NOT DONE YET! There's still one final skill to master, one final chance to show us what you've got, and some serious pack pride on the line! 👉 Head into the classroom NOW, watch Skill 6 and get training! Flood those pack chats with your progress, support your teammates and let's make this final week the BIGGEST one yet! ENGAGEMENT COMES BEFORE TRAINING. RELATIONSHIP COMES BEFORE FREEDOM. LET'S BLOODY GO!!! 🔥🔥🔥

Now this one had me nervous but the lovely @Jennifer Mcfarlane and Mazie helped us a lot Met up early in the week and Rosie was struggling with threshold so we kept at a distance and gave some good attempts then we got together again and already vast improvement from Rosie to say I’m shocked is a understatement Still a lot of work to do with Rosie with unknown dogs as she just wants to bark and get attention and go play silly lab energy slide across to see the different videos of each section of skill as too hard to upload all in one

Things are heating up, legends! 💪🏻 Today we talked about taking our loose leash walking skills into the REAL WORLD and what happens when we start pushing those thresholds! As we close the distance between our dogs and distractions, old habits can start creeping back in. Behaviours that have been reinforced in the past might suddenly reappear. And guess what? The same goes for YOU! Your nerves, tension and reactions can be just as conditioned as your dog's behaviour. Here's what we covered 👇🏻 🐾 Recognising thresholds – Understanding when your dog is approaching that point where old behaviours might take over. 🐾 Confidence down the lead – Being aware of your own tension, staying calm and acting with confidence. 🐾 Closing the gap – Gradually reducing distance from distractions without rushing the process. 🐾 Progress over perfection – Take your time! We're building a relationship and skills that last, not chasing a perfect walk. 🎥 AND PLEASE, POST THE MESSY VIDEOS! We don't just want to see your wins. Show us where you're struggling, where things fall apart and where you're unsure what to do next. That's where the REAL coaching happens! We're here to help you work through those moments, not just celebrate the good ones. 🏆 WILD DOGS ARE BACK ON THE BOARD! 🐕🔥 A MASSIVE congratulations to @Chris Bock & Jax, taking out the Week 4 win for the WILD DOGS! 🙌🏻 Seriously, what an incredible effort. Watching how far you two have come, the progress you've made and the relationship you've built is exactly what this challenge is all about. THAT is what working as a team looks like! ❤️ Well done, legends! So bloody proud of you both! The Jackals had better watch out... the Wild Dogs are coming! 🐕💪🏻 Watch the replay, get out there, challenge yourselves and keep those videos coming! Remember, we're not training for perfection. We're building dogs we can enjoy life with.
