All of our training is reward based with decades of science & learning theory to back our methods up.
We do not use check/choke collars or physical corrections to train dogs.

Private Training

Private training sessions are ideal for those who aren't able to attend a group class, or perhaps have an issues best dealt with in the home, such as separation anxiety, resource guarding or toilet training. We have over 15 years in training dogs with problem behaviours and can cater a programme to suit your needs. All private sessions include detailed homeworks for you to practice, and phone and email support throughout the life of your dog. The length of the session will vary depending on your needs, most obedience sessions can be dealt with in an hour, but more serious problems can take 2 to 3 hours to address all of the problems. Private sessions are conducted in your home.

We have a long history of successful treatment in the following areas:

Aggression
Rescource Guarding
Jumping up on People

Barking
Pulling on Lead
Basic Obedience Skills
Separation Anxiety
Puppy Behaviour Management
Toilet Training
Fear/Anxiety
and more....

Dog training is an ongoing process. Once we have given you the appropriate tools and shown you how to execute the exercises, it is crucial that you continue to follow through at home to build the relationship and foundation towards a well behaved dog.

Destructive Behaviour

Problem Behaviour sessions are structured for you to get the most out out of the training porgramme, and for us to be able to come up with a detailed plan for you to follow.

A 2 hour observation appointment is required in which we will observe how your dog behaves currently with you and your family. We will ask questions to get a detailed background & case history on your dog and find out what you have tried to improve the behaviour so far. This gives us valuable feedback and information to help us develop a plan that will work for you.

Next we schedule a 2-3 hour training session to put the programme into place and make sure you are able to execute the exercises. We will walk you through the entire process and are available at any time for telephone or email support.

At the training session we schedule a 1 hour follow up to take place 3 weeks later to re-assess your situation, see what progress has been made, and make alterations as necessary to the programme.
