A site to indulge my passion for a greater understanding of dog psychology. To discuss training, behaviour and.well. anything doggy! Friday, 24 January 2014. Have you noticed how in cold weather your dog takes much more time to sniff everything? Don't just pull them away. 29 January 2014 at 04:38. So, that explains a lot. Still not happy about standing outside in the freezing cold dark night, in my PJs while Stanzie sniffs around Forever.but now I know why :). Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Over the past few years there have been an increasing number of street dogs being brought to the UK for rehoming. Just in the past year I have noticed a sharp increase of street dogs, particularly from Romania, coming to the UK and owners are asking me for DNA tests. Or perhaps a Pedigree Basenji? A prizewinning German Spitz?

You might think that you know what a Border Collie looks like. I have been looking at the breed for a couple of years now and there is such a huge range of colours, shapes, sizes and coats that it is amazing that they are all considered the same breed.

Why is there a picture of a Nectar Rewards card on this post? Well, you may be thinking there is a relevance to the word 'Reward' appearing here when we are talking about dog training and behaviour.
