How do sessions work?

All of my one-on-one dog training consultations begin by understanding the sorts of issues and expectations you have.

I ask you to complete a survey to ensure I know what you're looking to achieve in your relationship with your dog and can help you get there.

We then meet for our session and go through a training plan, this gives you the skills and confidence to work with your dog towards your goals.

How long are sessions?

Initial sessions are usually around 90 minutes long and follow ups are 45 minutes. Any longer than this and I find both dogs and humans start to get too tired!

Who do one-on-one sessions suit?

One-on-one sessions are great for everyone because they let us work intensely with you and your dog.

They are especially useful for puppies, households with more than one dog, or for people with dogs with behavioural issues they're looking to address.

How can I prepare for my training session?

To prepare, we ask that you:

  • Have a harness or flat collar for your dog. If you are unsure what kind of equipment, we can advise at your session.

  • Have a soft/leather Leash (no chain leads please)

  • Have an ample supply of soft, easily palatable treats (poached chicken, Prime 100 or cheese work really well)

  • Have your dogs favourite toy handy

If you don't have a leash or flat collar handy, or aren't sure which to buy, don't worry, we carry a range of collars and leads for you to try and a few for purchase.

Above all we ask that you are optimistic about your dog and have an open mind to try new ways of training your dog. 

What do I get at the end of my session?

After your training session, you’ll be sent a detailed set of notes to help you practice what you’ve learnt after we’ve left (or between sessions).
