1-2-1 Training
Our comprehensive training covers a wide range of issues, from basic to advanced training, nutrition, separation anxiety, reactivity, recall, loose-lead walking, over-arousal, hyperactivity, resource guarding, introducing a new dog, multi-dog households, barking, and other unwanted behaviors. You can rest assured that we have the expertise to address your specific needs.

Our team, equipped with a wealth of knowledge and experience, has attended numerous seminars, webinars, and completed courses on a variety of issues. Leanne, our lead trainer, holds a Canine Training Behavior Diploma and is a Senior Instructor for Dog Training College. Recognizing that every dog and owner is unique, we begin with a comprehensive discussion in the first session to understand the specific issues you want to address. We then craft a personalized plan to suit you and your dog, providing immediate techniques to aid your progress. You will also receive a follow-up email summarizing our discussion.

Follow-up sessions will involve discussing how things are going, what is working and what isn’t, how we can make more progress and what we can do moving forward. Locations can vary depending on the issue and increase the difficulty level as your dog improves. We will summarize and agree on our action plan at the end of these sessions. You will be shown techniques to help you and your dog from the first session to the last. You have email support throughout and can be assured that we will use force-free methods that are the most up-to-date, science-based training. We don’t just work with the dog, we work with the owner too. If there is more than one person in the household, we will all work together whenever possible.

A free 10-minute telephone conversation can be conducted with Leanne before your first session if requested. Sessions last up to 2 hours long depending on how much we need to cover. Discounts are given for multiple sessions booked and paid for together.
