Natalie and James are getting married and they have a very special reason for their new dog Bertie, a Labrador Cocker Spaniel X, to be there.

Lockdown has caused their wedding plans to be turned upside down, but Bertie is in training to get him ready for the big day.

Natalie takes time out just a couple of weeks before the new date to tell us how it's going. Like me, Natalie is a Pro Dog Trainer with Absolute Dogs, and we talk about the training games that have helped Bertie get ready.

Congratulations to Natalie and James and Bertie!

Health and well-being expert, Helen Ginman runs U+I Wellbeing.

A first time dog owner, her training journey with Sox, her Boxer dog, didn't start well when she had advice from a trainer who used aversive methods. She quickly felt this was wrong and got amazing results when she switched to positive rewards training.

She now has a very special relationship with Sox. Helen talks very openly about her own mental health struggles and the vital part Sox played in getting her through the darkest times. Please note Helen does talks about suicidal feelings.
