Dog training services
Behaviour change takes time, consistency and the right structure. My approach focuses on identifying the root causes of behaviour rather than just treating symptoms. I will guide you through a structured journey from initial assessment to advanced development, ensuring you and your dog build a relationship rooted in trust, clear communication, and mutual understanding.

Behaviour Foundations Programme
£290
This programme sets the stage for success after your initial strategy session. Specifically designed to establish core skills and reliable foundations for meaningful behaviour change.
For some dogs, these foundations are enough to create significant improvement with problem behaviours. For others, this stage provides the groundwork needed before tackling more complex behaviour challenges.
3 x 2 Hours
Behaviour Development Programme
£390
Whilst the foundations programme focuses on building core skills, the development phase allows us to improve reliability and address more specific behaviour challenges. The exact focus will depend on your dog, your goals, and the progress made during the foundations stage.
4 x 2 Hours
Boost your progress
These sessions are available to clients currently working through a behaviour training programme who would benefit from additional support reinforcing their dog’s training between coaching sessions.
I work directly with your dog in real-world environments, practicing and reinforcing the behaviours we are working towards in your training programme. This allows for more repetition, consistency and exposure than is often possible within standard training sessions alone.
