Common dog behaviour problems that can be resolved by owner and dog behaviour & management coaching are - aggression, chewing, barking, obsessive behaviour, snapping, growling, biting, dominance, fearfulness, no recall, pulling on the lead, pack problems, fighting with other dogs, separation anxiety, submissive weeing  - contact me for an effective solution to these and  other undesirable dog behaviour

Modifying dog behaviour is more about modifying our own.

Have you the commitment needed to help your dog, have an open mind and are willing to change your way of thinking? 

If not, then I am not the person for you.

Improved behaviour is guaranteed while I am there and will continue after I leave providing you follow all the advice given to you - if you aren't satisfied WHILE I AM WITH YOU, there is no consultation fee to pay. (this does not affect your statutory rights)

I treat each and every client and the problems that they have with their dogs as individuals.  As with each dog owner, each dog has its own character and is also an individual and should be treated as such.  Every dog owner needs to EARN respect and cooperation from their dog as each dog will only take notice of someone it respects.

I do offer a payment plan in these difficult times.

NO ONE METHOD WORKS FOR ALL OWNERS AND DOGS OR FOR ALL BEHAVIOURS

My approach for my clients and their dogs has four important stages:-
 

1. Understand how the undesirable and difficult dog behaviour has come about - a dog has a reason for everything it does and it doesn't think it is wrong or that it has a behaviour problem.
    

2. Gain your dog's respect and trust - your dog asks you questions throughout the day when you are with him and you need to give him the right answers to them all - you are developing a relationship while you are living with your dog.
    

3. Handle the present behaviour displayed by your dog so that you can manage him safely and correctly - how you react determines the severity and frequency of the behaviour.
    

4. Understand your dog's instinctual behaviour so that you can facilitate sociable behaviour

We need to consider the reason for the behaviour and be able to deliver the correct response at the RIGHT time and CONSISTENCY to resolve it. 

The home consultation will last approximately 3 - 4 hours. It is necessary to see the dog in his own environment as this is where most behaviour problems begin and in some cases undesirable behaviour outside of the home becomes a result.  During the consultation we will discuss the behaviour displayed by your dog and also your interaction with him as this will most certainly impact on your dog. 

You will be shown how to handle, with correct timing and consistency, any undesirable behaviour both INSIDE and OUTSIDE the home - your dog's environment is where he spends his time on a daily basis which includes the areas he walks in. 

Telephone back-up is given thereafter for as long as it is needed.  Every person needs access to support.
