Year 2025 has been a mini roller coaster at times. Trying out new stuff, finding time, regular training, all sorts of.
Canine Kate would again love to thank all the clients and friends for all the support!

2026 will be bringing more focus on the important things and doing what I do best. I will be strengthening my knowledge and skills even more through continuous education and training, as the learning never ends for a good dog trainer!
My own proven base beliefs are staying the same, the amount of knowledge, however, and the ways of looking at all the aspects of the science in Canine behaviour and training will just grow bigger!

*Common sense
*Understanding the true nature of the dog
*The capability of explaining everything to the owners, because without the support, understanding and willingness of the owner, no training will work
*Continuing in exploring all areas of dog training
*Not one method on it's own works on every single dog in the world
*Keep the dogs safe from cruel and pathetic humanising and babying

I will carry on helping dog owners to improve and live their best life with their dogs, and the other way around 😉 including dog walking, dog training, help with behaviour problems, and nutrition advice.
The behaviour help side will be taken to the next level, so watch this space, everyone involved so far are already partially aware 🙂
The dog grooming is staying actual too, so whoever is in need of a good groomer, give me a shout! The groom room is amazing and your dog will look lush! 🤩

I will also focus on more online, social media activity, which is actually more difficult than the practical side! 😅 but there is so much material waiting to be published! Some footage will be coming your way with some progresses and results!

Happy 2026 to everyone and to all doggos! 🥳❣️🐶

Human race really needs to wake up. Improve the way of thinking and taking actions!

Maybe it is partly social media's fault, which has gone through the roof in recent years, maybe not.
Or the social media just helped to uncover uptight individuals who have grown too soft, like to blame everyone and everything and throw one sided judgment in everyone's face wherever and whenever they can.

The fact that you post a picture of a dog holding a corn on the cob and add slightly lengthy caption to it is one example. It doesn't matter your caption of the pic says "NEVER GIVE A DOG CORN ON THE COB" Or say "The corn is used way too much as a filler by companies making very poor quality dog food"
Then you look into potential, TINY use of corn for the benefit of dogs.

Next you make a post on famous FIREWORKS AND DOGS.......WOW!......It doesn't matter you appoint that you feel for equine people, and that YOU DO AGREE some changes should be reinforced.
Doesn't matter you clearly mention that you KNOW AND AGREE!! NOT ALL DOGS CAN BE DESENSITISED, TRAINED AND HELPED WITH BAD RECTION TO FIREWORKS (LOUD NOISES AND OTHER)

NO people will pick and read what they want, act in rage and comment, and then THEY blame you for being uneducated, have poor knowledge and are oblivious to everything and everyone!

Instead, try having an open mind, read things twice and THINK. Maybe reach out to the person and ask for more detailed explanation in a polite way.
Because there is a very good chance, that person is way more educated, open minded, knowledgeable and experienced than you think and the ways of working with dogs, or any kind of animal, can go so much deeper than people can probably imagine.

Otherwise we will end up not being able to post anything in the future and it's already happening!!

Or us proffesionals will be forced to make sure every single post is created so the 8 year can understand it! Which is what I feel like I will have to do from now on 😅 posting everything with worry that it will not be SIMPLE enough for those certain individuals.

Come on people, I'm sure human brain is way more complex than what it actually seems to be right now....judging by what is happening out there, mainly on social media.

🎉🎊🎆🎇🐕😃That time of year again. Internet flooded by "please skip the fireworks" "think of our poor animals"....

Personally, I love fireworks, good old fashioned fireworks. I love new ways of celebrations, so much would love to see a drone show!! So I stand for both. Mixture of both....

Don't get me wrong, there are a*****es out there who will set fireworks too close to the stables and without warning, make a mayhem in the middle of the town etc. That would deserve adequate punishment.
I feel for some horse owners, considering a horse being an animal of "flee or you're done" psychology. Certain things about being more considerate with fireworks could improve in that aspect.

BUT, my focus here is aimed at dogs.
I've personally been through both, many times. Dogs being completely oblivious to fireworks and then a dog being scared of loud bangs, large bright umbrellas of lights suddenly appearing in the skies and the dog trying to brake his way in through the door from the garden. That said dog would do a high performance obedience test, with loud gun shot sound test and he would be fine, it was work, he knew what he was supposed to do. At the end of the test he'd happily play with my dad and his favourite ball. On the fireworks night, boom, dog in panic mode. This was years ago. I still believe our old dog could improve, have we gone about it the better way, not coddled him as much, letting him know that there actually was a reason to be scared.
Or maybe, he actually was one of the very small percentage of dogs where the fear and worry is buried far too deep and too strong. In that case, all those years ago he probably could have done with a cosy dog house and a snood around his ears....(but he was still ok during obedience, which actually gives me a clue, we could have made his life better and less stressful around fireworks with better training...)

Anyway. This little terrier in the video would be exactly the same if I have left her in believing the fireworks are bad and reason to be scared!
As a puppy she was a little worried. But it has been quite easily TRAINED out of her. And she is the HAPPIEST DOG EVER.

So instead of getting angry and miserable around firework season, constantly worrying about how my dogs will react, what if they panic, what am I going to do, I can't even go out, and on and on and on..... I decided to try different ways of desensitisation, kept myself together. In the good, Canine psychologycal ways explained to her, that she will always be safe with me, I am the one who will protect her if needs to be. But the firework season is certainly not that kind of the situation.

So just think for a second. Is your dog really the part of the maybe 5% (probably not even that) of dogs in the country, who really needs a calming tablet, a snood etc. Due to deeply locked in reaction, or a very bad experience. Or is his/er fear created by lack of correct introduction, training and your own worrying and you can actually improve it?

Thank you for reading!

This lovely girl might be one of my biggest challenges so far. Due to her possible rough start into life and being rescued by her current owners right on the verge of her maturing. She really wants to do the right thing and she loves her owners! But it comes with some challenges.
After trying two other trainers and different advice, the owners are very willing to work on things, change some habits and follow the advice, so fingers crossed Lucy's quality of life will improve even more 🙂❤️

Lovely Cooper is currently going through his training with his owner 😊 he is such a bright pup, very much seems like he is switched on a 100% constantly, almost hard work to keep up! 😅
We are working on the owner's ability to relax, but at the same time keep up with him and how to gradually teach him that he is supposed to walk beside on loose lead and wait for his free time and shaping other things, like recall. 🙃
