Initial Consultation w/Dog Trainer

Service Description

This consultation is conducted by one of our skilled and qualified Behavioural Dog Trainers. It’s perfect for addressing moderate behaviour concerns like walking issues, leash reactivity, anxiety based problems, or obedience challenges. The trainer will assess your dog’s behaviour, identify triggers, and provide a tailored training plan focusing on practical, hands-on solutions. This option is best suited for dogs who need help with training and behavioural adjustment but don’t require intensive rehabilitation, offering effective guidance at a more accessible price point. Here’s what you can expect during the initial consultation, which will take place in your home (unless otherwise discussed prior to the session): Behavioural Assessment We examine your dog's behaviour, temperament, and history to gain a clear understanding of any underlying issues. Defining Your Goals We discuss your concerns, whether it's addressing behaviours like aggression or leash pulling, or simply strengthening your bond with your dog. Customised Training Plan A tailored plan is created to meet your dog's specific needs, focusing on behaviour modification and positive reinforcement techniques. Behaviour Modification We incorporate proven techniques to help your dog manage challenges such as reactivity or anxiety, building their confidence and coping skills. Hands-on Guidance You’ll receive step-by-step instructions and practical strategies to implement daily, ensuring progress continues at home. Ongoing Support Stay connected with our trainers for ongoing advice, adjustments to the plan, and access to helpful resources for long-term success. Foundation for Success This consultation sets the groundwork for resolving behavioural issues and enhancing your relationship with your dog, paving the way for lasting improvement.
