1-2-1 Dog Training

Confidence for you and your dog
Our 1-2-1 training sessions are bespoke. Tailored around the key challenges for you and your dog, we’ll focus on giving you the tools and the confidence to work through any undesirable habits your pooch has developed.
We understand that problem behaviours can be frustrating for you. But chances are, your canine companion really wants to get it right, but just doesn’t quite know how. Or at least, not yet…
With 1-2-1 training, we give you a personalised plan that guides you through best practices and techniques and gives you continued support to help you live happily ever after with your dog.
1-2-1 training can help you with:
Recall
Loose lead walking
Obedience exercises
Jumping up
Barking
Frustrated greetings with people and other dogs
House training, including toilet and crate training
Counter surfing and stealing dropped items
Guiding your puppy through adolescence, and into adulthood
Settling a new dog into your home
How we work
Just think of us as your expert dog training partner. Together we’ll take an in-depth look at your dog’s behaviours, gather thorough background information, and ensure we give appropriate guidance in all areas.
While investing in 1-2-1 training is the best way to build a trusting bond between you and your dog, it is important to remember this isn’t a magic wand scenario. Age, breed, and genetics all play a key role in your dog’s behaviour and, just like us humans, dogs are not infallible, they need consistent, continuous guidance. Unpicking and amending learned behaviours will take commitment, patience, and practice on your part if we’re to achieve meaningful change.
The good news is, we’re on your team.
With access to a dedicated WhatsApp support group with other owners, and monthly online Q&A sessions, we’re here to help you stay on track with your training. You’ll have a dedicated partner to work alongside you, giving you the tools and the knowledge to build a long-lasting, trusting bond between you and your four-legged friend.

Happy Clients!
“Lucy is great, she is unflappable, has endless patience and has a real knack for breaking things down for you.
She really pushed me to think differently about our two rescue dogs’ behaviour and to look beyond the obvious to understand why they were struggling with things.
I’ve definitely had a few ‘lightbulb’ moments while training and have seen my lovely recently rescued dog start to find her feet and gain confidence during the time we’ve been working with Lucy.
I am much more calm and clear when asking things of my dogs now and I can see the positive impact of this on our bond.
An added bonus is that both of my dogs absolutely adore her and love it when she arrives!”
