Dog Training

A well-behaved dog is an absolute joy to own.

Maybe this is your first dog, or a ‘new’ dog, or you haven’t owned this particular breed before.

Those essential basics that make life with your dog simpler, safer, and happier.

Safety and sense

Family matters are what matter…

• Worried that your dog will never accept the children?
• Afraid that your dog and kids are playing too rough?

A great but strange week this week with a celebrity recommendation from Big Brother presenter Davina McCall!

Twitter (www.twitter.com) has entertained many, Stephen Fry is a fan as is Phillip Schofield. I’ve been on Twitter for a little while. I enjoy learning from other dog professionals. I also answer doggy questions for people needing advice. It’s a great way to spend your coffee break!

I was stunned when my Twitter name @WildPaw popped up… in none other than Davina McCall’s comments!

Davina has recently got a puppy – called Bo – and like anyone else wants to make sure everything goes well. A new puppy addition to the family is a big responsibility. I was delighted when she mentioned that she was following me and said I was ‘brill!’

The offshoot of this was I instantly got 400 messages (yes – 400!) from people needing help and advice with their dogs. They are lovely folk and I have enjoyed getting to know them. They are also great at giving me feedback about what they would like to see on the website.

SO if you are a Twitter visitor PLEASE tweet me to say you’ve been here. If you aren’t on Twitter, jump on board! It’s fun, friendly, interesting and who knows – you might get to know @thisisDavina as well!
