A friend of mine created this detailed dog training series a couple of years ago and I feel like it doesn't get the love it deserves. She's a fully accredited dog trainer and built this course over several years in order to save new dog owners money. Hiring a private trainer for your pup normally costs $100+ per hour and taking them to puppy preschool is typically $150 for 6 classes that just go over the basics (sit, stay etc.). Not to mention if you want to take your dog to the more advanced classes after puppy preschool it's hundreds more. She made this course so she can spend time with her pups whilst still helping people train their dogs.
Adrienne teaches everything covered there in this one course so you can teach your pup in the comfort of your own home, at your own pace and for a fraction of the price. The best part is, she works with you as you teach your pup, you can reach out to her whenever you run into any issues and she'll help. So you still get the 1 on 1 expert opinion that you'd get from a private trainer, all you have to do is send her an explanation or video of the problem you're trying to address or issues in teaching that you're having.
Delete this post if it's not allowed but I just thought this might help some new dog parents :)
He is 7mths old and his groomer recommended that he now needs to be stripped. He hates getting brushed. Will stripping be to traumatic for him, what are the benefits? He is our first dog and as owners we are nearly incompetent. Thanks
I'm here because I hope to become a welshie mom one day. I lost my 16 yr old mini schnauzer, Charlie, just 3 weeks ago and am so lost without my best boy. I have also fallen in love with a welshie in my neighborhood. He lets me hug and love on him and rolls over at my feet to give him belly rubs when I'm out walking in the neighborhood. It's as if he knows I'm deeply grieving and hurting. He is only 1 yr 4 mo old, but the way he looks at me with intensity and with curiosity, it's as if he's a smart, stoic old man. I'm convinced my Charlie is speaking to me through this precious welshie. My question for you all here is this related to how hypoallergenic your welshie is. I'm allergic to dogs, cats and horses, however I never had any allergy to my mini schnauzer, not in 16 years. I smashed my face into his fur to smell him as we snuggled 20 times a day, slept with him, groomed him myself, etc, and I never once had any reaction at all. Before I get serious about finding a welshie to bring home, could you all tell me your experiences with your welshie living with people who are allergic to dogs?
A visit to Caffi Largo in Pwllheli. Ymweliad cyntaf i gaffi.
Had to make the decision last May. He lived a good life of a little over 13 years. I wasn't the perfect owner, and he wasn't the perfect dog, but we had each other and it was great.
Pretty much every day I just wish I could tell him I'm sorry, explain to him what was happening, and smell his little head again.
Looking for some advice!
I brought home my 8 month old welshie 2 weeks ago. He came potty trained and crate trained. I live in an apartment which was a little adjustment for him at first with going to the bathroom outside, but within a few days he was getting used to his schedule. The past week, he has been randomly having poop accidents in the house. Only poop accidents, he has only peed inside once and that was the day we brought him home. I definitely take him out enough and have been giving him the same food our breeder gave us. Only new food he has been eating is his treats which are just duck and chicken training treats.
Here is his current walk / bathroom break schedule:
6:30 AM - bathroom break
7 AM - 30 min walk
12 PM - 30 min walk
5 PM - 30 min walk
8 PM - bathroom break
10:30 PM - bathroom break
The most confusing part is that usually these accidents happen very soon after he comes in from a walk or bathroom break and even if he has just pooped outside.
Any advice would be very helpful! I'm really not sure what I should do :(
I donβt hand strip him, too expensive but heβs still a beautiful boy
A windy Sunday morning at Porth Neigwl.
Four hour round trip and she never stopped
Nice enough day for Belle to get to swim in late September!
Found this pic of my boy when he was a pupper.
