Is the reality of owning a dog living up to the image in your head?
Do you dream of a dog that will settle quietly beside you while you enjoy a coffee with friends?
Are you struggling to commit to the rigid routine of dog training classes?
This is where the flexibility of one to one training works best: with flexible timings and bespoke training plans you can choose the day that suits you, and tailor your training plan to fit your family and lifestyle.
Training plans can cover a variety of popular commands, for example:
- Positions – sit, stand and down
- Walking on a loose lead, learning not to pull and reducing potential reactivity
- Recall
- Stay/Wait
- Gentle (taking food from hands gently)
And Life Skills, including:
- Socialising – encompassing a myriad of sensory and situational experiences to prepare your dog for the world
- Focus games
- Settle – a useful ‘standby mode’ if you wish to take your dog to pubs and cafes
- Fun scent games and enrichment for mental stimulation and stress relief
- Self-control exercises
- Confidence-building exercises
- Meeting and greeting people and other dogs appropriately
- Door manners
- Handling exercises – getting used to being handled and examined, for vets and groomers
