Balance Behaviour Description
I offer one to one consultations to help owners with canine behavioural issues. I am not a trainer, trainers teach dogs to 'speak human', whereas I attempt to teach owners how to 'speak dog'. I have been working with dogs for most of my adult life and am a qualified canine behaviour practitioner and owner trainer and member of the CFBA. In the past I have worked in the animal welfare sector as a fosterer, home checker, transporter and assessor. I have rehabilitated many dogs from stray kennels and re-homed them with loving families. I now try to assist owners in keeping their dog in the home through rehabilitation - and thus help avoid the dog being relinquished to welfare in the first instance. I can help with behaviour issues no matter how small or overwhelming through advice and demonstration and through teaching the psychology of the dog.
My ethos is one of holistic intervention, by this I mean that I always look at the dog as a whole - body, mind and spirit - I try to fulfil the physical and psychological needs of the dog and provide the owner with the tools to decrease and eliminate unwanted behaviour - many of the behaviours that we find unacceptable are often in part an expression of frustration so a whole lifestyle view is essential. I endeavour to empower owners to take charge of their dog's behaviour and I teach how the owner can remove unwanted behaviours and prevent future issues.
I do occasionally have dogs available for rehome. Please check the 'Langlands Rescue' page on the website for details of available dogs.

Lots of lovely dogs in rescue right now!
Bob over to Helping Yorkshire Poundies - HYPS and see who's about and what they're up to. This organisation does amazing work and I'm honoured to be a part of it.
Show your support - share posts, foster, adopt, walk a dog, fund raise, volunteer, or just 'love' a few of the dog posts and send good luck and well wishes for the forgotten and the broken waiting for their family to find them! ... Big up the good guys and save some lives at the same time, support your local rescue. ¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī ¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī¤Öī ¤Öī

Adopting a dog is the BEST feeling in the world! Karmic loveliness at its best. Sometimes difficult, can be messy, often frustrating at times, but ultimately a wonderful experience (with benefit of hindsight after the exploded cushions, suspicious floor puddles and chewed skirting boards are forgotten!).
Show us your rescue puppers and doggos! We love a good rescue dog success story ŌÖź’ĖÅŌÖź’ĖÅŌÖź’ĖÅŌÖź’ĖÅŌÖź’ĖÅŌÖź’ĖÅŌÖź’Ė ÅŌÖź’ĖÅŌÖź’ĖÅŌÖź’ĖÅ
Time for show and tell! Share some insight into your chosen breed!
Is there a big difference between working lines and show lines within the breed, are the blue eyed males 'always' swines? Is your amber eyed collie off the charts for energy and intellect? How about coat colour, does your black and white Husky find conflict everywhere and your wolf grey sleep right through the drama? We see correlations everywhere - what can you share about your breed?... Science tells us that physical traits are strongly linked to temperament - even within a single breed or litter!

How many of you have multi-pet households and how does this work in practise? Do you have Fort Knox style security to prevent animal A getting to animal B and animal B getting to animal C? Or do they all get on harmoniously with supervision? What would you change if you could?
Speaking dog is one thing, and we can encourage dogs to at least tolerate other animals as family, but asking a cat to speak dog and a dog to speak rabbit is quite another! ... I wonder how other non-dog-like-animals cope in a dog's world... pondering today. ¤żö¤żö¤żö¤żö¤żö¤żö¤żö¤żö¤żö¤żö ¤żö¤żö¤żö¤żö

Dogs make our lives better! It's official.
If you know someone that could benefit from dog ownership but can't keep a dog - spread the joy and visit with your four legged sidekick. The benefits physically and mentally are huge...

Your dog is amazing! If they (1) understand what you want, and (2) are capable of doing it, then they will happily do almost anything for you! I honestly believe this. Don't skip the small steps - clarity is key!
Lez Graham of The Pet Gundog reminds us to go back a step if required!
Is your dog thinking or just reacting? It matters!
Dogs that 'think things through' are less reactive, healthier and more relaxed. Dog's that live in 'instinct mode' are more stressed and anxious, have poorer immune function and have difficulty settling.
Give your puppers and doggos something to think about today! This is simple training for your benefit - but more importantly, is subtly altering the architecture of the brain for theirs.
Happy dance for 'hump day' anyone?! ¤śŖ¤śŖ¤śŖ¤śŖ¤śŖ¤śŖ¤śŖ¤śŖ¤śŖ¤śŖ ¤śŖ¤śŖ

Food is medicine - it's a no brainer! Where did drug therapy start? With tree bark, plants and wholefoods, that's where! When 'medicine' is eaten as wholefood there is a serious lack of overdose, side effects and associated problems. Good nutrition PREVENTS disease, and it can even REVERSE many issues! When greedy pharmaceutical companies and food manufacturers try to better nature they separate and condense a small part of the whole - which no doubt has dramatic results on ...a symptomatic level - good for business! Unfortunately this selective and narrow focus often misses the bigger picture... These synthetic replicas and selective parts usually have an equally dramatic set of side effects - and ultimately - can intensify the root cause. Nature knows best; nature doesn't merely address the symptom, wholefoods are bio available, and come with compatible substances that are worth so much more together than the sum of the parts - and they address the symptom ALONG WITH the cause - they are also prepackaged in the exact form that promotes the right mechanical action, absorption and availability of the goodies within... Helsinki DogRisk group does the research that proves what raw and fresh feeders already know.

Happy Monday doggy people! Training tour for us this week! YES ¤ż®
Following on from last week's post about stress levels being matched in owners and dogs. There's an upside to this close social relationship! When we become what our dogs need us to be; a calm, understanding, in-control decision maker, the magic happens. Our hormones change in line with our body language, determination and success, and their hormones change to compliment and mirror in all the right places! Boost your confidence and lower you stress by working with your dog ...and hey presto - your dog will be empowered to be his or her best self too. When we work with difficult challenges we are better for it, ditto our dogs. Challenges are an opportunity to shine, and allow our dog permission to shine too. ¤ż®¤ż®¤ż®¤ż®¤ż®¤ż®¤ż®¤ż®¤ż®¤ż®< br> See More

Oh dear! Taking retrieving a little too far methinks! Cat looks a bit peeved at being mothered and manhandled...but cute nonetheless!
