Say hello to some of our newest dogs to enter advanced training at our Midlands Centre.
There’s Fleur, a black Labrador who looks like a little princess but is really a tomboy! Her favourite thing is having cuddles. She gives her trainer Gemma proper hugs by putting her paws around her neck. Fleur loves to play with the other dogs and run about. She carries her soft toys around in her mouth and still manages to give you cuddles!
Then there’s Freya. She is also a black Labrador who is super eager to learn new things. She has the fastest recall her trainer has ever seen! Freya just loves to please. She loves human company, and her favourite activity is playing in the paddling pool when it is warm.
Meet Jagger – a big lad with a young puppy personality! Jagger can be silly from time to time, but he does work hard. He absolutely loves using his nose to push doors open and closed. As he is quite tall, he has no issues with the switches, he just pushes them with his nose.
Here’s Hattie – a bubbly girl who loves her toys, and particularly likes a game of hide and seek with her toys when in the park. Hattie has picked up task work very quickly learning to press the pedestrian switch in one 5 minute session. She works well in town, and will greet people enthusiastically when allowed. She is a relaxed girl at home and enjoys to settle down on your feet in the evenings.
By Jiminy, it’s Jiminy! Jiminy is a gentle giant, he plods through town at a leisurely pace but can sometimes not look where he’s going as he is too busy looking at his handler. He is a placid boy most of the time, being relaxed around all animals and distractions. However, if you get toys out his puppy side really shows; he will bounce and play-bow around a squeaky toy, much to everyone’s amusement.
