A great step in the right direction. Some positive news.❤️🐾

Hallelujah!

The UK Government’s Animal Welfare Strategy explicitly recognises positive, reward-based training as the preferred method of dog training AND raises clear concern about the welfare implications of electric shock collars, with consultation underway on a potential ban.

This matters.
A lot.

For years, those of us working ethically have said the same thing: training methods MUST be kind.

They affect welfare, behaviour, emotional safety and long-term outcomes.

Seeing this acknowledged at policy level is not about “winning an argument” ... it’s about dogs finally being centred in the conversation.

This isn’t about punishment versus permissiveness.
It’s about evidence.
It’s about welfare.
It’s about recognising that distress and pain have NO place in learning.

When government strategy, education, science and lived experience begin to align, we create space for meaningful change. Not just in how dogs are trained, but in how they are understood.

There is finally hope - now let's do all we can to make this happen.

⭐️ Looking for some dog training that delves into behaviour?

As a recently qualified canine behaviourist, for a limited time you pay only £45 for a training/ behavioural consultation.🐾

At BPawsitive we only ever use force free, positive reinforcement dog training techniques that are kind, ethical and effective. Combine this with a look into why your dog is behaving the way they do so you can fully understand their needs and together we can put together a plan to help them overcome the issues that they’re facing.🐶

As it’s the festive season, for a limited time we’re keeping the cost lower, making our services more affordable and accessible.☺️

If you would like to book an appointment, or would just like a bit more information, then please do get in touch.🐾📞
