Family dog mediation, Behaviour consultations and training sessions

P1050201.JPG

Our one-to-one sessions are perfect for resolving reactivity, aggression, nervousness, fear or anxiety-based issues, over-arousal and sensory processing issues, working with phobias or trauma and resolving separation issues or resource guarding.

You can also utilise these sessions for teaching loose lead walking, recall, improving focus/engagement and resolving jumping up, begging, excessive barking. Also suitable for learning how to handle your exuberant, 'in-your-face' adolescent dog!

 

If you don't have any behavioural problems you feel you need to resolve, but rather you just want to improve your relationship with your animal or want help training something new then I can help with that too.

 

These sessions are ideal for developing a deeper understanding about your animals' behaviour, key needs, communication signals and ethical training practices.

The dog's welfare and the safety of everyone involved will be my primary focus.

All action plans I provide for resolving any behavioural 'problems' will have a biopsychosocial approach.

 

I avoid the use of corrections and punishment and take into account the animal's individual needs and preferences as well as their genetics, learning experiences and environment. I will work closely with your vet and any other professionals where appropriate to ensure you and your dog get the support you need.
