It’s been a while, hasn’t it? I knew there probably wouldn’t be a good time to land back in your world and a Sunday morning felt like as good a time as any. It’s time to explain where the last few months have taken me and, more importantly, where Canine Perspective CIC
I hope this finds you safe and well, preferably with a dog by your side and a cuppa in hand. I have been making list after list for our online training club (*update* the info from the club can be found here) and our blogs of training games, recipes, enrichment ideas and

In the wake of today’s result, wake being the operative word, I am profoundly aware that I have to do something to create a change, to make a change and to be the change. We all do. In moments of utter bemusement, I take a moment and read a quote that’s on
I recently had the misfortune of encountering a puppy farmer who docked the tails of her dogs. The word ‘docked’ makes it sound gentler than it is. She had the tails cut off her already abused, mistreated and neglected puppies. The authorities are dealing with her, for a number of reasons, but

The word ‘controversy’ was coined from the Latin ‘controversia’, as a composite of ‘controversus’, which means, ‘turned in an opposite direction.’ You bet we’re turning things in the opposite direction!
