Our Programs
Let's train your dream dog!
Which training programme is right for your dog?
No two dogs are exactly alike, but most training goals fall into one of three categories:
🐾 Raising a new puppy
🐾 Improving everyday manners and reliability
🐾 Addressing reactivity, fear or anxiety
If you're not sure which option best fits your situation, don't worry. We'll discuss your dog's behaviour during our consultation and determine the most appropriate path forward together.
Calm Puppy Essentials
New puppy? Let's start off on the right paw.
Bringing home a puppy is exciting... until you realise you've just invited a tiny land shark into your house.
One minute they're asleep in your lap. The next they're biting your ankles, peeing on your floor, screaming in their crate and treating your living room like an obstacle course.
The good news?
Most puppy problems aren't problems at all.
They're either curiosity or a lack of guidance.
A little guidance can prevent a lot of frustration.
Common goals include:
• Toilet training • Crate training
• Puppy biting & nipping • Building a healthy routine
• Recall training (the DON'Ts) • Leash introduction
• Handling & grooming preparation • Socialisation & confidence building
• Learning to settle calmly at home
My goal isn't to create a perfectly obedient puppy overnight.
It's to help you raise a confident, well-adjusted dog that fits comfortably into your lifestyle for years to come.
EVERYDAY SOCIAL SKILLS
For dogs who know exactly what you're asking... but would rather do their own thing.
Pulling on the leash.
Jumping on guests.
Ignoring commands.
Selective hearing.
Turning every walk into an upper-body workout.
Most dogs aren't trying to be difficult.
They're simply repeating behaviours that have worked for them in the past.
My job is to help you replace frustration and confusion with clear communication, consistency and realistic expectations.
Common goals include:
• Loose leash walking • Reliable recall
• Polite greetings around people • Household manners
• Boundary training • Impulse control
• Excessive barking • Building engagement & focus
• Calmness around other dogs or animals
The result?
- A dog you can confidently include in everyday life instead of constantly managing them.
REACTIVE & ANXIOUS DOGS
Barking. Lunging. Growling. Panicking. Let's figure out what's really going on.
Few things are more stressful than feeling anxious every time you take your dog for a walk.
Whether your dog explodes at other dogs, struggles to cope when left alone, becomes overwhelmed by visitors, or seems fearful of the world around them, you're not alone.
Many reactive dogs aren't trying to be dominant or stubborn.
They're struggling with big emotions and don't yet have better coping strategies.
Together we'll focus on understanding the root cause of the behaviour, building trust, developing emotional regulation and teaching practical skills that help both you and your dog navigate the world more confidently.
Common goals include:
• Reactivity towards dogs or people • Barking & lunging on walks
• Fearful or nervous behaviour • Separation anxiety
• Resource guarding • Over-arousal & inability to settle
• Confidence building • Muzzle conditioning
• Safer handling and management strategies
Behaviour change takes time, but progress is absolutely possible with the right plan and consistent follow-through.
