Empowering You To Train Your Dog Effectively

If you prefer a hands-on approach to training your dog, our One-to-One Dog Training sessions are the perfect choice. In these private training sessions, we equip you with the knowledge and skills to train your dog quickly and effortlessly.

At our training centre, we emphasise a balanced training perspective tailored to your specific needs. Unlike trainers who shy away from addressing problems, we tackle them head-on, ensuring a comprehensive and effective training experience.

We understand that every dog owner faces unique challenges. Whether it’s lead pulling, jumping up, recall issues, or socialisation with other dogs, we can help you overcome these obstacles. Our experienced trainers specialise in working with nervous, anxious, and reactive dogs, with the ultimate goal of helping you achieve your training goals.

What Is Included Within The Lessons?

Our expert training team will cover a wide range of topics during the sessions. While this list is not exhaustive, it provides a glimpse into what you can expect:
  • Establishing a following state of mind for your dog
  • Utilising balanced techniques
  • Addressing reactivity towards people, other dogs, or any moving stimuli
  • Recall skills
  • Promoting proper socialisation and desirable behaviours
  • Teaching loose lead walking for enjoyable walks
  • Cultivating good manners through threshold training and travelling
  • Training your dog to be comfortable in a crate, designated places
  • Exploring engaging activities such as tricks, commands, and interactive play

During the sessions, your trainer will take the time to discuss your specific training and behavioural concerns. They will evaluate the interaction between you and your dog, identifying areas for improvement. Together, you will determine the best training approach, and your trainer will guide you through practical techniques, setting achievable goals for you to work on with your pet at home.

Our One-to-One Dog Training aims to empower you as a dog owner, providing you with the tools and understanding to foster a harmonious and well-behaved canine companion.

IGP Lessons

Our One-to-One IGP Sport Training Lessons offer personalised coaching for individuals interested in participating in the sport of International Utility Dogs (IGP). IGP, formerly known as IPO or Schutzhund, is a demanding and competitive dog sport that evaluates a dog’s tracking, obedience, and protection abilities.

During these private lessons, our experienced trainers will work closely with you and your dog to develop the necessary skills and techniques required for success in the IGP sport. We will tailor the training sessions to your specific needs and goals, ensuring a comprehensive and focused learning experience.

Our trainers possess extensive knowledge and expertise in IGP training. They will guide you through each component of IGP, providing instruction and practice in the following areas:

Tracking: You will learn how to train your dog to track scents, follow tracks, and locate objects or articles along the track. Our trainers will provide guidance on scent discrimination and tracking techniques to enhance your dog’s tracking abilities.

Obedience: We will focus on refining your dog’s obedience skills, including precise heeling, recall, positions (sit, down, and stand), and focus under distractions. Through personalised guidance, we will help you strengthen the communication and bond between you and your dog, crucial for successful obedience work in IGP.

Protection: This aspect of IGP training involves teaching your dog controlled aggression, guarding behaviours, and apprehension of suspects or decoys. Our trainers will provide step-by-step guidance on developing proper technique, building your dog’s confidence, and ensuring safety during protection exercises.
