Episode 6:
Wish loves being groomed
Posted by Elizabeth Murphy
Welcome back to Wish’s Puppy Pen! It looks like we’ve caught Wish having a lovely stretch and snooze in the garden...
Something we’ve noticed about Wish is how beautifully shiny and soft her coat is. This is partly due to her nutritious diet, but also because she has started to have her coat brushed by Jo, her Volunteer Dog Trainer.
Regular grooming sessions are essential to keep Wish happy and healthy, so we want to make sure that she associates it as a positive experience. Through gentle reward-based training, Wish is learning that having her coat brushed is very enjoyable, as she gets to enjoy cuddles and tasty treats at the same time!
