“My dog listens to the trainer… but not to me.” - This is something I hear from owners all the time.
The reason is simple, the trainer might understand the dog, but the owner hasn’t yet been shown how to communicate clearly and consistently.
That’s why my training process starts with the owner.
“The Problem Usually Isn’t the Dog… It’s the Communication.”
Step 1 – Behaviour Consultation (Up to 2 hours)
The first session is owner-focused, and the dog does not attend.
This allows us to concentrate fully on understanding what’s really going on.
During this consultation we look at:
• Health and nutrition
• Your dog’s history and important previous events
• What’s going well – day to day
• What you need help with
• Practical training and management strategies you can start using immediately
You’ll leave with clear actions to practise at home AND all the notes from the session.
Step 2 – Follow-Up Session (2 weeks later and lasts for 1 and half hours)
Two weeks later we meet again.
This gives you time to practise what we discussed and experience the ‘real-world’ challenges that come with it.
In this session we:
• Review the progress you’ve made
• Answer any questions that have come up
• Adjust strategies if needed
• Introduce further training guidance
This step is about building confidence and consistency.
Step 3 – Street Obedience Session
Once the foundations are in place, we move to practical training with your dog present.
This session focuses on on-lead work and real-world obedience, helping you apply everything you’ve learned in everyday situations.
Why This Process Works -
Because training doesn’t stop when the session ends.
You’re not just learning commands — you’re learning how to communicate with your dog clearly and consistently every day.
And that’s where real change happens.
If you would like with your help dog, please get in touch!
