I hope he enjoys it. It has the potential to give him a great career.

That's what he's hoping Dave: he's spent two years working at doggy day care centres which he's realised is just crowd control. He's anticipating that dogs trust will enable him to make a real positive difference to dogs' lives

Hopefully he will. My advice, having worked at Kenilworth for 13 months, would be to listen to the trainers and TBA’s about his dog interactions.
Plus, unfortunately, be prepared for the harsh reality of working in a female dominated environment 😉
It, mainly, focus on learning about dog behaviour.

Beware of the dog.
Why, is she aggressive?
No, just really judgmental.
(yes I am still in my pajamas at 3pm,what of it, Bel? You're not even wearing underwear)

Anyone got any tips for getting your pup to be interested I'm their food again?
Last few weeks, Arlo has just been really unfussed with eating. (Fine in himself, and happy to eat anything else put in front of him). Just backs away from his food unless there's a lot of coaxing. If we put cheese on it or sausages, he just picks them out. (Occasionally he goes and eats it but it's very occasional)

Ernie goes through phases like this. He will eat if there’s something exciting on offer. I figure he’ll eat when he’s hungry. Best to offer the food for 10 mins then remove rather than leave it out.

Possibly we're too soft, when ours have been like this we've tried a variety of different foods to tempt them - most successful was the frozen 'raw' food, which was the only thing that would get Shadow to eat reliably for quite a long time.
Eventually our dedicated dog food freezer broke, though, but luckily he will now eat just about anything at meal times (or will run away up the garden instead, if he's sulking because I'm not here).
Dogs are weird.

Son1's Labradoodles are picky eaters (it must be the poodle element, never known a picky Lab) and they have to ring the changes fairly often. That said, Butternut Box stuff seems to go down well.

I know that judgemental look well Rae.
Can’t help on food fussiness. Albie would eat 24 hours a day if he could. I suspect many of his judgemental looks are telling me I am not giving him enough food. And being back on steroids does not help.
