Reactivity Rehabilitation
Whether you and your dog have been struggling with reactivity for weeks or years, Ella is able to help you throughout your journey in rehabilitating your dog back into the world. From barking and lunging (at dogs, people, cars etc), refusing to move, not wanting to go out or fear and aggression toward other dogs, we can set up a plan to help manage, and then modify their behaviour and responses.
-
Reactivity is an issue that can take longer to see solid behaviour change. We will work on a monthly basis, setting up a plan of how we can gradually reach a place you and your dog are happy with their behaviour modification. Each month is planned out and tailored to both you and your dog.

Training for Walks
If your dog lacks recall, runs toward any dog they spot in the distance and pulls on the lead, this service is for you. Training for walks will cover any issues you are having on your little wanders (excluding reactivity), with a monthly training plan, clear instructions on how to train out of these undesired behaviours, and how to deal with them in the moment. As this is a fully personalised service, we cover the exact things you and your dog are struggling with.

Training for Walks is based on a monthly plan. Some issues such a recall will often take longer than a month to behaviourally modify with long-term success, but everything we cover will be setting you up for long-term success. Feel free to enquire before booking.

Meeting Your Dog’s Needs
It can sometimes be difficult to know how to meet our dog’s breed-specific needs, and this service aims to help owners create a system that works well for both them and their pet. If you feel like your dog is struggling behaviorally, is bored or you simply feel like you want some security in knowing you are doing the right things, this service is for you. We aim to create a tailored plan that works for both you and your dog, making sure it is fun and engaging for everyone involved in their care.

Option 1 - Hour Call
1 Hour call with Ella to go over all the aspects of your dog’s life which could be effecting their behaviour. From diet to social needs, breed-specific outlets and the things that motivate them, we will discuss everything your dog may need and create a plan for your dog’s future training. You will receive a training plan sent to you after the session.
Option 2 - Monthly Support
Monthly support includes daily access to me throughout working week to send questions, voice notes and videos to help you understand what your next move is with your dog. This is a lot more in-depth and could help if you feel like a month of having a trainer in your pocket could be what is missing to help give you the confidence you need for you and your dog. This means that rather than an educated guess at what your dog may be needing, we can adapt our plan for your dog throughout the month to make sure we are seeing the change we seek.

Puppy School
Introducing a new puppy into the home is both exciting and overwhelming. It can feel like a bombardment of information coming your way. How you raise your puppy is personal to you, and with this service, we look at the lifestyle you want with them; is it coffee shops and being confident around city sounds, or solid recalls in pheasant season and calmness around other dogs? Whatever it is, we work from the ground up to turn that puppy into your dream dog.

Each training block covers one month of training. All behaviours are things that will take longer than a month to solidifyy for your puppy, but how to teach all the basic skills will be taught over the first month, with the choice to further your education as the months go on.

How does online training work?
I work with Google Meets for my initial calls with clients. During this hour-long call, we will go over just about every aspect of your dog’s life so that we can learn where we can make life easier for you both. We will also cover some basic handling skills, which is just the start of your journey into learning how best to respond to your dog’s behavioural issues. After this, those who have chosen monthly packages talk to me through WhatsApp messages, videos and voice notes, with the ability to send me questions and updates throughout the week. If we both feel you need a demo or any pointers, we can always arrange another video call to solidify our learning process.
Overall, this process is very flexible- the reason online dog training works so well is because dog trainers (good ones at least) don’t train dogs, we train humans. The goal is always for my owners to create the confidence and self-efficacy needed so that no matter what their dog throws at them, they know they can handle it, whether I am there or not.
FAQs

The first thing we will go over the issues you and your dog are facing and what our goals are. After this, we will discuss just about everything to do with your dog, from health and fitness, the equipment you use on your walks, as well as their diet and daily routines. This makes sure we aren’t missing anything that your dog might need. We will then go over the specific issues and how to manage them, then how we are going to change the behaviour. You will be taught all the skills you need gradually over the weeks as not to overwhelm anyone. At the end of the session, we will go over our initial plan and how you feel. I will send you a training plan, and off we go!

I’m here to be the support system you need, so you can support your dog. Look at my ‘about’ section on the website to help you see that I’ve been where you are, and I understand.

The length of time a ‘problem’ has been around isn’t always an indicator of the severity of it. Sometimes, all we have to do is show the dog another way to cope, but we will only know if we give it a go.
