Is One to One Training Right for You?

​

One to one training is ideal for owners who would like individual support with their puppy or dog. It is particularly useful when you have specific goals, need help with an area of everyday obedience or would prefer more focused guidance than a group class can provide.

Because sessions do not follow a preset curriculum, the time can be used to work on the skills that matter most to you. Training is adapted to your dog’s age, experience, personality and natural tendencies, whether you are starting with a new puppy, guiding an adolescent dog or developing the skills of an older dog.

Individual sessions can also be helpful for dogs that find a group environment distracting or overwhelming. Where appropriate, online training allows owners to begin learning from home, without introducing the additional pressure of an unfamiliar setting.

Our training is reinforcement based and uses food, toys and access to enjoyable activities as rewards. We combine clear teaching with practical gundog inspired exercises, helping dogs develop better focus, responsiveness and self control while providing constructive outlets for their natural instincts.

What Can We Work On?

​

Sessions can cover areas including:

• Puppy foundations
• Recall and whistle training
• Loose lead walking and heelwork
• Focus around other dogs and distractions
• Steadiness and self control
• Jumping up and everyday manners
• Retrieving and delivery
• Crate training and settling
• Building engagement and teamwork
• Providing appropriate outlets for hunting and scenting instincts

One to one training is intended for practical training and everyday obedience. It is not suitable for aggression, reactivity or complex behavioural concerns.
