Housetraining Your Dog

It was a great day on Saturday, the sun was shining - which always helps when you're filming outside! Though filming in Royston - which is very close to Duxford airfield - can be challenging.. Planes constantly flying overhead meant we had to keep waiting for plane free moments :-)

Sally took us through the crucial aspects of housetraining your dog. That was fun. In order to have appropriate footage we had to catch the dogs cocking their legs on camera! Do you think you can get a dog to pee when you want to? No... and of course to be in keeping with our ethics, we had to just wait and keep the camera rolling until the dog was ready to relieve himself, naturally... And then I needed to make sure I had a good enough angle etc etc... Personally - I really think dogs are camera shy, especially when it comes to going to the toilet.

Doogle, our star dog for the day, must have wondered why his pee resulted in such a tremendous cheer from everyone...
