Google review of Baybrook Dog Training by Maria Bring Pinder ★★★★★ "I have quite a challenging and alpha terrier puppy that had brought be to my wits end. Meeting Lucy gave me a better understanding of his behaviour and more importantly my own. Lots of guidance on how to help me connect with him, training advice within my comfort zone which gave me ...

Super busy but satisfying day today starting with 121s - firstly Truffle who struggles with anxiety to new environments and unfamiliar dogs and as you can see training is tiring! Then Rysa doing some gundog training with Torvi 🔥 then back home to walk the rest of the team and visiting golden oldie Tilly , followed by gundog classes. We had all the weather today 💨 🌧️ ☀️ 🌈 🥶 great effort everyone ☺️

Stetchworth classes are as normal tonight to make up for cancelled class. There are no email reminders because I forgot 🤦‍♀️

Some of the lovely Wickhambrook pups 🥰

Lovely message from a client, I so miss having Stanley in class 🖤
“Stanley is our first puppy (not our first dog) and with your help, guidance and patience he has turned into a lovely well behaved 1 year old – we couldn’t ask for more 😊
You are a star – a super dog whisperer”

We were talking about this in class the other day …

BRAIN UNDER CONSTRUCTION!

The challenges of teenage dogs

The saying - "Parents with teenagers understand why some animals eat their young" is something that many parents of teenagers will relate to.

Many people are unaware that dogs also go through a teenage stage and are frustrated and unprepared for the changes it may bring.
Statistics show that many dogs are surrendered or re homed during this phase as their owners no longer “like” the way their dogs behave, can’t handle them and just give up on them.

The teenage brain is going through many changes. Think of it as being “rewired”. The rewiring process can cause some parts not to work at all, work sporadically or have too much current. The re wiring process often causes new, out of character or unexpected behaviour.

There are many similarities to the changing human teenage brain. There’s a valid scientific reason why car insurance premiums for young adults under 25 are more expensive. The brain is not fully matured – irrational decisions, risk taking, poor choices and accidents are more likely to happen.

Be patient, understanding and most of all consistent with your teenage dog.

Don’t give up on them. They are feeling just as frustrated as we are.

Being aware of what is happening in their brain as it develops to full maturity helps us to be more accepting.

Remember that this is just a phase and it will get better.

Thank you Sophie, I love watching your bond develop she’s a clever little pup 🧡

“We enrolled on the puppy class as we definitely needed some guidance with a new puppy. Lucy is informative, her classes are very well structured and clear and she is always very helpful with any and all queries. She manages to make what can feel like a very overwhelming experience approachable with clear guidance and support, recognising each dog as an individual personality and managing the specific needs of the owners also. “
