Private Puppy Training

About my approach

I use positive reinforcement training techniques only, which is rewards based, helping build and strengthen your bond with your puppy during his/her learning. My teaching is always from your dogs point of view and how they see and feel things.

What happens on the day?

Your puppy training will be tailored to your needs and goals. To ensure I can prepare for your specific goals, I will call you for a 15 minute chat prior to my visit. The format of our three-hour session is as follows:

1. During the first half hour whilst we chat, I will be observing your puppy to understand where the dog is at as well as it’s learning style.

2. Next we discuss the problem behaviours you have raised, and prioritise the order of your puppy’s learning. I will also explain how dogs learn.

3. After this we start the ‘train-the-trainer’ process. This means we work together and I show you how to train your puppy using my proven science-based training methods. We will practice and practice again!

4. We will create an ongoing training plan, so that post the session, the foundation is set and you can confidently continue implementing my methods.

Your commitment

Once you’ve completed the three-hour session, you will need to commit to ongoing training, based on short, but regular and consistent sessions. Your commitment to this will help set your dog up for success and see you reach your goals sooner!

Investment

The total investment for this puppy package is $390, including a three hour in-home session and individual training plan.
