Walked Dukey boy today! Was a little over excited but settled nicely when we started walking. He tends to have bursts of energy and then calm down again within a couple of minutes. He has the kindest soul and the prettiest face

Duke attended the charity football tournament yesterday. He was a little (or not so little) star. He was happy for numerous strangers to come and say hello, and pet him. He enjoyed the fussing, and the treats!!. He walked beautifully and was not phased by the other dogs. I think he stole a few

Ah, Duke always steals hearts!! He's such a handsome boy :) Here is a pic of him at the charity football match with his walker Geoff.

I managed to get to the kennels today to walk Duke and he was in such great form. He was very excited to see me when I approached his kennel and after harnessing him and exiting, we had some cuddles before setting off on our walk. I find it is getting easier to redirect his excitement by using a tug toy, he really loves playing tug and it helps feed his natural instincts, which in turn helps calm him for a walk. We had a very settled walk overall, even passed a horse which he took interest in but no reaction. He sat nicely whilst it passed. As usual I took him to the paddock afterwards for some more games and a bit of training. He really is such great fun to be around. I sat with him in his kennels afterwards whilst he had his well deserved treat and cuddles. Love this boy so much

I managed to get to the kennels twice last week and of course, went to see my boy Duke

As always, excitement is high when he gets out of his kennels, but we have been working really hard on redirecting this with play, and this seems to work well to settle him. Once calm he can focus and responds well to commands. He sits well for treats and takes them really nicely. We spent some time sitting quietly before we headed back to his kennels. He is such a gorgeous boy and I love spending time with him.
