𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐓𝐢𝐦 🐾

The 18-month-old Labradoodle who has joined me to work through his frustration-based reactivity.

Tim likes to make his feelings known when he can’t get access to other dogs, and at home he’s started showing some guarding behaviours around the sofa.

Over the coming weeks, Tim will be working through my behaviour modification programme and I’ll be sharing his journey with you all. Stay tuned!

I’m sure everyone recognises this golden boy’s face by now. As one of my very first clients, he’s been part of my journey as much as I have his and has become a part of my life.

You’ve heard me talk about his progress for months, but now it’s time to hear it from the person who’s lived every step of it – his mum.

A little shoutout to Ted and Willow, and to their mums, who have had to grow and push themselves just as much as the dogs to get here.

Ted used to be so nervous that getting off his drive was a battle.

Willow couldn’t comfortably be around other dogs without reacting.

Now they’re both settled in a busy pub, surrounded by dogs, people, food and loud music.

Dogs that can simply relax and be part of the world.

Just dogs that can enjoy life a little more freely.

Proud of both of them, and incredibly proud of the dedication their Mum’s have shown to get them here.

𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐟 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠

Your dog isn’t trained because they can do it on your drive.

Take them to a different field.
Take them to a busy street.
Take them somewhere they’ve never been before.

If the behaviour falls apart, that’s not failure, it’s information.

Dogs are contextual learners. A behaviour that looks solid in one place can completely disappear in another.

Proofing your training in different environments is what turns a known behaviour into a reliable one.

One-off sessions can be helpful, but real progress takes time, consistency and support.

Dog training isn’t about what happens in the hour we’re together, it’s about what happens in the days and weeks afterwards.

My training programmes are designed to give you the guidance, accountability and ongoing support needed to create lasting change.

Every programme includes:

✅ WhatsApp support between sessions

✅ Access to my resource library, including training PDFs and video tutorials

✅ Weekly training plans, so you know exactly what to work on and when

✅ A basic equipment package to get you started

✅ Free access to an additional service:
• Group Class OR
• Walk & Train Session

✅ Money-back guarantee (T&Cs apply)

My goal isn’t just to teach your dog a few skills during a session. It’s to help you build the knowledge, confidence and consistency needed to continue making progress long after we’ve finished working together.

The best results don’t come from a single session. They come from having a plan, sticking to it, and sometimes having someone to give you a kick up the bottom when you need it.

📲 If you’re struggling with your dog’s behaviour and want a clear plan rather than a quick fix, drop me a message and let’s chat.

𝐒𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐚 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐩𝐞𝐝 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞’𝐬 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐝𝐨𝐠𝐬.

Everywhere you look it’s competition style obedience, dogs holding down stays from 300 miles away, picture perfect behaviour in busy environments.

And that’s amazing training… don’t get me wrong.

But that’s not what most pet dogs need.

In my opinion, pet dogs should be able to do a few simple things well:

Settle when required.
Walk nicely on a lead.
Come back when called.
And be relatively neutral to what’s going on around them.

That’s it.

They don’t need to look like demo dogs in every environment.

They need to be manageable.
They need to be safe.
They need to be able to exist in the real world without everything being a battle.
And most importantly, they need to be happy.

The problem is people start comparing their dog to what they see online and think they’re failing.

When actually they’re just comparing real life to curated training clips.

Not every dog needs perfection.

Most dogs just need clarity, structure, consistency and someone who shows up for them.

And most owners need a bit of reassurance that “good enough” is actually good enough.

𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐬.

I got asked yesterday how you stop a Beagle following a scent.

Short answer..

You don’t.

A Beagle was bred to use its nose.

A Border Collie was bred to control movement.

A Terrier was bred to hunt and dig.

A Labrador was bred to carry things in its mouth.

A Husky was bred to run.

These behaviours aren’t flaws or signs your dog is being stubborn. They are genetically programmed into your dog.

The problem is people often choose a breed based on how it looks, then get frustrated when it starts acting like the breed it is.

Before getting a dog, do your research.

Not just the size, coat type, or how much exercise they need. Research what they were bred to do.

Because if you get a Beagle, expect them to follow scents and sniff every blade of grass on the field.

If you get a Collie, expect them to be obsessed with movement.

If you get a Terrier, expect them to dig, hunt and be very persistent.

If you get a Husky, you better have some stamina.

Training isn’t about fighting genetics. It’s about understanding them, working with them, and giving your dog outlet for the behaviours they’ve been bred to perform to the best of your ability.

The more you understand why your dog does what it does, the easier training becomes.
