Hi Gang
Sorry I missed you all last weekend. I was in Birmingham, at Crufts. My dear friend Debby Lucken, of KAD - Kids Around Dogs very kindly invited me along to do a book signing on her stall. Having never been before, I was not quite sure what to expect. Read about the experience further down.

Fun Not Fear® Journal
I got freebies from the Force-free stands and here's a pic of my shiny new things. Rather looking forward to reading my new books. No smugness intended.
What do you think about the winning Frenchie? Personally I don’t think this dog could breath, let alone be the best in their category, and the judges need their brains felt.
Also… the debacle with Lickimat… Read all about it here.
In other crufts news, I made friends with Pet Remedy’s Gill.
Pet Remedy have taken a very public stance on the use (or not) of aversive equipment, and coupled with the fact I have recommended their products for years to perform something I call “The Pyjama Method” to relax dogs, I am really excited to announce I will partner with them as an affiliate, and can therefore arrange a discount on their products for all my lovely friends and clients!
News to come soon.
Spotted and sharing.
Scrolling around Facebook in the week I found this awesome graphic by Dogs Disclosed. If you have a Facebook account I thoroughly recommend going and having a look at their page as they report some amazing facts about dogs that will leave you looking at your floofer in awe.
My other posts - because I write about other stuff too!
Quit Whining, Jim! - Why do the older generations go off at the younger ones, for using technology that THEY invented??
Handy links.
I'm currently working tirelessly on the new website and almost ready to transfer clients and club members to the new school site. Please keep an eye on your inboxes if you're a member! I am so excited for you to see it all!
Warm ‘n’ Fuzzies,
