If the answer is yes book a FREE call to see how we can work together to achieve effective behaviour change

In my experience my clients expect me to take them outside where other dogs are and teach them to stop barking and lunging.

I don't do this.

I am here to educate owners about why their dogs react and effective techniques to reduce reactions, reduce stress and make walks enjoyable for you both.

Your dog is reacting to communicate to the world that they cannot cope in that situation.

But we keep walking them, they keep reacting, it's a vicious circle.

Everytime they react and they feel safe from harm because the other dog keeps away it's marked as a success and tomorrow when they see another dog they react the same.

Because it WORKS! We need to change WHY they are reacting and give them alternative options.

Virtual training is excellent because your dog is relaxed in it's natural environment with no distractions.

Dogs learn best when calm and able to think and engage.

Susan's testimonial dog training

Susan contacted me to help her with her two spaniels. It took some time, but within a few weeks, without leaving the house and not specifically training their behaviour on walks Susan reported that walks had become less frantic, more calm and she was able to enjoy walking both dogs without being dragged around and a notable reduction in barking.

You could easily achieve the same when working with me
