The perfect, tailor made course to help your dog adjust to any life changes or new adventures you have coming up.
We are so fortunate that our dogs are by our side for many years and inevitable that our circumstances change over time. Change can be stressful for dogs and can sometimes lead to anxiety or behaviour problems. By being pro-active and training ahead of time, you can be sure your dog will behave well in the new situations but, most importantly, feel confident and happy being part of them.
From house moves to water sports, new babies to camping trips we can tailor training to your needs.
The number of sessions you will need will depend on your goals. Each week, your trainer will work with you and your dog together and then provide you with ‘homework’ to keep you on the right track in between sessions.
Some areas we have helped with so far:
Preparing for a baby including, walking well beside a pushchair, getting used to baby noises, not pinching toys, not jumping up, boundaries in the home, barking at the doorbell.
New house with new rules including getting used to the new area, feeling safe in new environment, learning new boundaries, no longer allowed on furniture.
Dog’s first holiday including, waiting when car door is opened, staying close off lead, stopping at a distance, sitting patiently at pubs and cafes, walking well on a lead with lots of distraction.
Paddle boarding and canoeing – getting used to equipment, dog safety and sitting still while out on open water.
The possibilities with these courses really are endless. We’d love to hear all about what you have coming up and create a training plan to help you and your dog achieve your goals together. Please contact us to discuss your needs.
We have Board and Train options available for this training.
