Positive reinforcement dog trainer with german shepherd

Accelerated Training

Let me do the work for you! For owners who are busy or stressed, or facing more challenging behaviours, it’s faster and more effective for me to do the training for you. This is particularly useful for working with reactive dogs, training your dog to walk nicely on lead, improving recall and helping with calmer behaviour outdoors.

The advantage of this is that your dog gets more frequency of training, with professional guidance and you get to benefit from progress that happens much faster than if you were doing it yourself.

How does accelerated training work?

We’ll start with a behaviour assessment at your home where we talk through the challenges you are facing, then I will develop an initial plan with key goals that we will work towards. I will also give you some simple tools to help improve your dog’s wellbeing and behaviour starting at home.

I’ll take your dog on agreed days, train them on a regular basis, and include check-ins to update you on progress then help you take over once we are seeing consistent results.

The important thing to know about this package is that the programme will vary for every dog. Often progress might seem slow at first but it’s like a bell curve - once progress starts taking off, you’ll see big changes!

Patience and consistency is key for dog training and it’s always worth the effort. I focus on identifying and resolving the cause of the problem behaviour (this is often fear, boredom or even underlying pain), so that the change is a lasting one. This can also have wider benefits on their overall wellbeing.
