Is your workplace pet friendly? Animals are so in tune with our emotions & I am an advocate for bringing your pets to work! More places should allow it. My office doesn’t allow animals, which is such a shame but it means when I work from home I get to really enjoy Ted’s company. Teddy brings so much joy and calm to my life, and I love my work from home days when I get to spend time working with him by my side. So, reply in the comments below 👇 with a picture of your fur baby! #petappreciation #workflexible

On Wednesday 24 April, Guide Dogs will be hosting events across Australia to celebrate International Guide Dog Day, and we will be welcoming all sorts of guests, including those with four legs!So, how should you prepare your premises for a person with low vision or blindness and their Guide Dog?Here are a few ideas:- Introduce yourself and ask the Guide Dog Handler if they need assistance. Don’t assume they need your help.- Ensure the Guide Dog Handler is seated comfortably where there is enough space for their Guide Dog to lie down, and not be in a thoroughfare or where people might trip over or injure it. Guide Dogs are trained to tuck under the Handler’s seat or table if necessary.- Ask the Handler if they would like a bowl of water for their Guide Dog.There are no specific requirements for a business to make special preparations for a Guide Dog on their premises, but a person who uses a Guide Dog does have the legal right to enter all public spaces. They can also travel on all types of public transport including taxis and rideshares.Learn the law and let’s respect the access rights of all people with low vision or blindness and their Guide Dogs.

This week's #TrainingTuesday focuses on the appropriate behavior when encountering a dog wearing a service dog vest out in public. While your first instinct might be to greet and pet the dog, doing so can be distracting and potentially dangerous for the handler. Here are a few guidelines to follow when you come across a service dog team in public: 1. Direct your attention towards the person, not the dog. It is crucial for service dogs to remain focused on their job of assisting their handler. It's important to avoid distracting the dog while they are working. 2. Take care to provide both the handler and their dog with adequate room to pass in aisles or crowded spaces. Allow them to go about their business without being interrupted by questions about their dog or requests to pet them. Remember, they're people just like us wanting to go about their everyday activities. 3. Always ask permission before interacting with the dog. Approaching and engaging with a service dog without permission can distract the dog and potentially endanger the handler. It's also very important to teach children to remain calm around service dogs, to politely interact, and not to expect to be allowed to pet a service dog, even if they ask nicely. By adhering to proper etiquette, we not only show respect but also contribute to the well-being and effectiveness of service dogs for their handlers. Let's all play our part in supporting and respecting the valuable work they do!

And so the Christmas Jumpers begin (with Cassie and Cooper) 🎄 Being an advocate of having dogs in the office, we think it's important to share some of the amazing benefits our four legged best friends bring with them to work, Research has showed; - 70% of people say that dogs alleviate stress in the workplace.- 67% of people say that dogs make the atmosphere more friendly.- 51% of people say that dogs improve morale and job satisfaction. Plus, who doesn't love seeing a waggy tail and fluffy ears when they come in. Having a dog friendly office not only comes with the above benefits but also means our employee's don't need to worry about dog sitters/dog walkers and Doggy day care. Is your office dog friendly?

Happy New Year everyone!I've see so many wonderful posts over Christmas and New Year. I do love seeing all the lovely celebrations.Families in matching PJs and Christmas jumpers. Amazing Christmas decorations and tables laid with incredible food. Sequins and bubbles everywhere.But I’ll be honest, I find this time of year tough. I have visions of using my down time well. Spending time studying, planning out my business year, as well as training goals for my dog.The reality is I find this time of year draining. I think I’m doing well each day to shower, get dressed and have a relaxing explore with Bodie! I swing from feeling flat, to a bit teary for no apparent reason. We barely got any Christmas decorations up. We didn’t paint the front room like I wanted to. We’ve lived here for over 7 years and it’s still never been done 🤦🏻♀️If you love this time of year - amazing!! If anyone else finds this time of year hard, know that I’m with you. I don’t have the answers.- But I’m trying to relax into it rather than fight it.- I’m trying to quieten the negative chatter in my mind.- I’m watching and appreciating Bodie just as he is on walks.- I’m trying to focus on the feeling of wind on my face than mentally listing all the things I should/could be doing this week.- I’m celebrating that daylight is get a little longer every day. I am also very excited about Pup Fest. I have already done so much more prep than I managed last year. Now to regain my momentum and make it incredible. What is PUP FEST?It's my annual online canine conference. This year's theme is: Empowering you & your sensitive & reactive dog.It runs from 26th to 28th January 2024.Join me, with 17 global dog experts for 3 days of incredible talks, workshops, and interviews. Speakers include Dr Laura Donaldson, Grisha Stewart, Dr Amber Batson, Andrew Hale and Surabhi Venkatesh.This dog festival is for you if your dog struggles in the modern world.- Is your dog worried by other dogs or people?- Do you describe them as reactive, nervous, or sensitive?- Do find yourself feeling stressed by your dog, or other people’s reaction to them?To register completely free, click here https://lnkd.in/ekxXHcGr Feel free to share this event with anyone that you think will find it helpful.I hope 2024 is a great year for you and your human and furry families.
