& Life skills

​Your initial consultation with our qualified trainer will often be in your home. There we can discuss with you the problem/s and conduct an assessment. This allows us to see your dog in their natural state and begin your training in the best scenario for the dog; in a familiar environment, with little distraction. From here we create a tailored training plan and begin training, showing you practical techniques to teach you to train your dog. For issues outside the home we will then meet/move to appropriate areas to continue growth.

​​

Single consultations of 1.5hrs are available and can be appropriate when dealing with a single issue or desire.

For more complex issues we offer session packages to work along side you to implement new behaviours, guide you along your training plan and build on necessary skills.

Whether you would like to increase your dog’s general obedience or dedicate time to specific skills such as leash walking, greeting without jumping or wait for your dinner, you'll work privately with a trainer to give you and your dog full attention at home or where we need to work with the environment, such as in your neighbourhood or local park. 
 

Our Puppy foundations package for dogs 8-16 weeks can be tailored to your needs. We'll guide you through socialisation/exposure, puppy behaviours, toilet training and basic skills, but each and every home and family has different needs and goals for their pup so we find out what's important to you and prioritise.

 

Each session is approximately1hr of training depending on factors such as skills, weather, dogs workload and emotional status. Sessions are planned according to your progress and schedule to ensure you get the most out of our guidance.

​

Train Me

These training sessions are conducted by the trainer, frequently, over a shorter period.

 We noted by removing early objectives owners and their dogs face such as; mobility issues, lack of skill or confidence or inconsistency in timing or training we can advance the dogs early learning, progression of skills and behaviour modification such as counter conditioning.

 

An alternative to 'board and train', sessions are conducted frequently, over a shorter period by a professional Certified Trainer

at your home/surroundings. There is nothing to hide, your willing to sit back and watch. We conduct the same training whether you are there are not, and include video to keep you up to date on your sessions. We'll meet with you on our last session to handover your training.
