Required Video Footage In Advance

To help maximise our face to face sessions, we would like you to take some video footage of your dogs in advance.

​

General Filming Tips

• Two people are required.  One to video and the other holding the lead and dog

• Use your phone or tablet

• Use the landscape setting when filming all videos

• Keep the videos to around 30-45 seconds​

• Keep the phone/tablet steady

• Ensure you are in a well-lit area – avoiding shady spots

• Avoid busy areas where your dog is distracted.  Perhaps your back garden or a quiet field

• Avoid filming in long grass or anything that will block the view of your dog’s paws 

• Choose flat ground – if you notice your dog struggles on some surfaces (ie tarmac, stones) but better on others (ie grass), please film both surfaces so we can compare

• Film from around 4 meters back - or slightly closer if you're dog is small breed

• Please ensure you are filming the whole of the dog – not cutting off their feet or heads

• When filming the dog walking away from you, ensure we can see the whole of the dog's back, ie not too low down
