1-2-1 Dog Training
Practical support for you and your dog, built around what you actually need.
Sometimes you don't need another training class, another list of exercises or someone telling you what your dog should be doing.
You need someone to look at your dog, your situation and what's actually happening, then help you work out what to do next.
My 1-2-1 training is designed to give you that support.
We'll focus on the things that are making everyday life harder — whether that's pulling on walks, recall, settling, over-excitement, struggling around other dogs or people, visitors, handling, or something that's a little harder to put your finger on.
Rather than trying to change everything at once, we'll identify the priorities and build from there.
What's included?
Initial consultation
Around 2 hours
We'll meet at your home, garden or a suitable local location, depending on what we're working on.
We'll spend time looking at what's happening, why it might be happening and what you can realistically work on between sessions.
We'll then:
-
Identify 1–2 key priorities to work on
-
Create a training plan tailored to you and your dog
-
Practise the foundations together
-
Talk through what to look for and what to do when things don't go according to plan
After the session, I'll send you your training plan along with video tutorials where they're useful, so you don't have to rely on remembering everything from the day.
Follow-up session
1 hour
We'll meet again within the four-week programme to see how things are going, build on what you've been working on and make adjustments where needed.
And if I think a full hour is too much for your dog, we can split the session into shorter sessions instead.
Because sometimes less is more.
Two support calls
30 minutes each
These are your chance to talk things through without waiting for the next session.
You can tell me what's working, what's not, ask questions, and we'll adjust the plan if we need to.
WhatsApp support throughout the programme
You won't be left with a training plan and told to get on with it.
You can message me throughout the four weeks with questions, updates and videos, and I'll help you work out what's happening and what to do next.
That's often where the little things get sorted before they become big things.
Why four weeks?
Because real life doesn't happen in a training session.
You need time to try things, see how your dog responds, make mistakes, ask questions and figure out what works for you and your dog.
Four weeks gives us that space.
The aim isn't to give you a perfect dog in four weeks.
It's to give you a better understanding of your dog, practical things you can actually use, and the confidence to keep moving forward.
Sessions are usually arranged weekly, but we'll work around what makes sense for you and your dog.
