To give your dog the best and safest experience, it helps to know: • Leash behaviour — pulling, reactivity, or if certain triggers (dogs, bikes, squirrels) cause excitement or stress. • Energy level & routine — how much exercise they typically get, and what pace they prefer. • Social comfort — whether they enjoy meeting other dogs or prefer personal space. • Any reactivity or quirks — nervousness, resource guarding, fear of loud noises, sensitivities, etc. • Medical needs — allergies, medication, mobility issues, or recent injuries. • Commands or cues you use (sit, wait, heel, leave it, etc.) so I can reinforce your training. • Feeding schedule & treats — what they can and can’t have. • Off-limit areas in your home, if applicable. The more I know, the better I can make sure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and understood from the very first visit.

A typical day with me focuses on safe, structured fun and plenty of exercise tailored to your dog’s personality and energy level. I love getting dogs out for long, engaging walks, exploring quiet neighbourhood routes, nature paths, and open green spaces where they can sniff, observe, and enjoy the world at their own pace. I do not use off-leash dog parks. Not because I don’t trust your dog — but because I can’t control the behaviour of unfamiliar dogs or inattentive owners. My goal is always to keep your pet safe, relaxed, and confident, so all activities are done on leash unless you specifically request a secure fenced yard play session. Fun activities can include: • Long-distance walks or steady-paced exercise • Sniffari-style adventures (letting your dog explore scents) • Structured leash walks to burn energy safely • Playtime in your fenced yard • Mental enrichment games and training cues • Social walks with my dog Misiu (only if requested and personalities match) No matter the activity, the goal stays the same: a happy, enriched, tired dog who feels safe and content.
