    A brief musical interlude ...

    @Emily_Babbelhund to be fair to my client she was just passing the description on from her friend. My client’s comment was that the music was beautiful and uplifting and that it was a good advert for Spanx - no plumpy bits there! :rofl:

    Maybe Harvey's not a labrador?

    This morning I left this small pile of treats (ready for some training) on the coffee table and nipped upstairs (I'm not a morning person and clearly wasn't thinking!). When I came back downstairs they were all still there!!

    What made you smile today?

    When I do some training with Harvey, the last treat when we finish is always accompanied by me saying “last one, aeroplane” (don’t ask, I have no idea! :$ ). Anyway, a plane has just flown over, I said something about aeroplane and there was Harv, sat to attention in front of me, just asking for...

    @UncleBob says he doesn’t know about improvement, but less gondola, more speedboat! For Harv it really is good exercise, with no strain on his joints and he loves it.

    Watching Harv really enjoy his swimming session today made me smile. Laugh out loud in fact. So enthusiastic. :cwl::cwl: Sorry about the photo quality - it was like a sauna in there.

    Harv's swimming session this morning made me smile. Water splashed everywhere and Harv tried to lick the trainer any chance he got.

    Harv does scent work

    Apologies. I’ve been somewhat remiss in my posting duties recently. We had another scent training class with Harv. This time we had two objectives; placing the scent targets off the ground sometimes and also working around buildings (which changes things for scent detection dogs as solid...

    How do you explain R+ training to people who have never heard of it?

    I tend to ‘humanise’ it. Say that I wanted you to pick up that tennis ball and hand it to me - I could either offer you a valuable reward, like a £10 note, or I could threaten to beat you, or actually beat you, until you did it. Which would you find preferable? Some people nervously smile...
