Dog Training

Skill-based training

Training with kindness

My dog training focuses on clear steps you and your dog can actually use. I teach simple cues, ways to reduce stress and tools for everyday life like walking calmly, recall and settling. Training is gentle and reward-based—no harsh methods. I use short, repeatable games so your dog learns happily and you feel confident. Sessions are tailored to your goals and your dog’s needs, whether they’re shy, excited or something in between.

We practise in real places when possible so the skills work outside the session. You’ll get clear steps to practise at home and ideas to make training part of your routine.

Who this helps

This training suits new dog owners, busy families and anyone who wants a calmer, easier life with their dog. It’s great for dogs who jump, pull on the lead, bark at visitors or struggle with new places. I also help with confidence-building for shy dogs and structure for excitable ones. You don’t need a perfect backyard or special gear—just a willingness to practise a few short exercises each day. I’ll show you how to fit training into your life so it feels natural and doable.

Everything is paced to your comfort and your dog’s learning style.

Getting started

We start with a short chat to learn about your dog, your goals and any worries. The first session includes simple assessments and a practical plan you can try straight away. I’ll demonstrate techniques and watch you practice, offering gentle corrections and encouragement. After the session I’ll give a clear, step-by-step plan and ideas for short daily practice games. If needed, we’ll plan follow-ups to keep progress steady. The aim is simple wins so both you and your dog feel more confident and relaxed over time.

Bookings are flexible and I can come to your home or meet at a local park.
