These sessions are designed to help you solve any behavioural problems that you might be having with your dog. The methods used are positive and reward based and designed to give you and your dog confidence to enable you both to enjoy a long and fun relationship together. I do not believe in using punishment to change your dogs behaviour instead we will find ways to motivate your dog and change your dogs behaviour with as little stress as possible.

FAQ:

 

What kind of problems can a Bespoke Behaviour Package help with?

From house training problems, your dog being destructive when left alone, aggression towards other dogs and/or people, nervousness and any fears and phobias. In fact anything that is impacting on the relationship you have with your dog.

 

What happens during a Behaviour Problem Session?

​

At the initial session, we will assess your dog's behaviour and their normal routine and environment and will then formulate a plan for how to help you and your dog overcome the problems. Every dog and their family is different so we will adapt the training and behaviour modification to suit you, your lifestyle and your needs.

 

​

What kind of Bespoke Behaviour Packages do you offer?

​

We offer a range of packages to suit your dog's needs, your lifestyle and budget.

​

3 x Half Days Package  - This packages gives you 3 Half Day sessions spread across a 2 week period. Each session will last around 3 hours. At the initial session the trainer will assess your dog and give behaviour modification exercises and advice. During the following 2 sessions the trainer will assess progress and help you work with your dog to make positive changes. 

​

Weekend Package- This package gives you a full weekend (Saturday and Sunday) of training. Each day will last up to 6 hours and will involve a trainer spending time with you and your dog and to initially assess and observe your dog's behaviour. They will then show you how to manage and modify your dog's behaviour in whatever environments and situations are most suitable.  This package will give you a good start for working on your dog's problems and give you the confidence to continue to progress after the weekend finishes.

 

Please note: This two day intensive package is not suitable for dogs who are very anxious as they may find it overwhelming. We would recommend a 3 x Half Days Package instead for those dogs. 

​
