Ramsey and the muzzle

Ramsey is such a happy boy and loves food and toys. He is very wary of muzzles but needs to wear one out on walks by law. We are taking things very slowly with him as he is also wary of collars, harnesses and leads being touched or attached.

He loves enrichment time and does not hesitate to shove his face in the muzzle, no stress whatsoever. 

Next step will be to hold the muzzle while he investigates everything else and see if he will approach. It is important that Ramsey knows he has a choice. Humans often try to do things in their own time frame and rush the process. However, we have to go slowly and at his pace or we will be back to square one. His time not our time ;).

Little Luna

Another enrichment session with little Luna while she gets to know me. Lots of exploration and sniffing. Luna is quite wary of touch so we are taking things slowly. We want her to really enjoy the sessions before we attempt to move forward with her training.

 

She is slowly becoming more adventurous and more curious and at one point climbed up on the chair behind me!

Mr. Murphy

Another park trip and lots of sniffing. Longer lead today to allow more freedom. This boy really is a delight.

We only saw one dog today and a few ducks which Murphy completely ignored having got used to their presence.

Back to kennels for some fun enrichment before a nice snooze.

Luna Bear

The park was busy today but Luna took it all in her stride. Quite a few dogs, screeching teenagers and crazy ducks!

Watching teenagers!

Then back to kennels for some enrichment and then a snooze.

Chomping toys is such tiring work
