Dog Training and Leadership
As a trainer, my aim is to help you develop a happy, healthy relationship with your dog. To get the best out of your dog, you need to be positive, assertive and consistent, enforcing boundaries with love and firmness. A dog that trusts and respects you will be happy and relaxed, knowing that it can look to you for guidance rather than being nervous and tense.
Training and leadership starts the first day you bring your new bundle of joy home. Your puppy might look like butter wouldn’t melt, but don’t be fooled! If you don’t introduce your rules, your puppy will think that he or she needs to make their own, and the rocky road begins.
Behaviour modification/relationship coach
Once your dog has been assessed I can help with specific behavioural issues that really do work. Sometimes the changes can been seen in a matter of hours and other times it can be much longer. This all depends on you and your dog’s ability to learn and the issues that we are addressing. Our aim is to modify their behaviour and build a relationship between owner and dog
These can be carried out at home on a road walk in a busy environment and/or a woodland or field area. All dogs are different and require different levels of training; each will need its own tailored plan.
I have developed a tried-and-tested programme over many years to introduce your new puppy into your home in a way, which helps it become part of the family. A dog that is happy in its own skin is a happier dog and thereby more likely to settle quickly.
I love training dogs of all ages and abilities. Whether your dog has a particular behaviour issue or you just want to get your new puppy house-trained, I'm happy to help.
