Frankie’s trip to the garden centre!

Posted by Elizabeth Murphy

Welcome back to Frankie’s Puppy Pen!

Your clever sponsor pup recently had an exciting trip to the garden centre with Sally, his Volunteer Dog Trainer, as part of his training to feel happy and confident in busy public places.

Frankie enjoyed walking around the garden centre, taking in all the new sights, sounds and smells. He demonstrated what a patient pup he can be by sitting beautifully as Sally browsed the lovely plants and flowers on display.

There are lots of potential distractions at the garden centre, such as intriguing garden sculptures and tasty-smelling food coming from the café! But with lots of gentle and positive encouragement from Sally, Frankie did an amazing job of staying focused.
