Canine Wellness Consultation

Service Description

This time together is designed to give you the opportunity to fully express the challenges you’re having with your dog and any goals you have for the future. With this, my aim is to start seeing where you and your dog are truly at so I can accurately develop the start of a practical plan for you all, moving forward. I view your dog as an individual, just like you. I consider their learning history, environment, genetics, and daily experiences when creating a way forward. You are an integral part of their success too, so I also take time finding out how you learn, if you have any unique requirements and how much time and energy you have to offer. I want both ends of the leash to be successful and enjoy working together! During the consultation, we’ll explore your dog’s lifestyle, routine and environment in detail before introducing practical skills and strategies you can begin using straight away. The consultation offers opportunity to: - Identifying the underlying causes of unwanted behaviours - Discuss your dog’s lifestyle, routine and learning history - Introduce training foundations such as marker training and clear communication - Explore enrichment options suited to your dog’s instincts and individual needs - Review key life skills such as loose-leash walking and name response - Assess your home environment and opportunities to better support your dog - Consider practical management strategies to improve day-to-day life immediately - Discuss health, nutrition or medical considerations where relevant By the end of the session, I want you to feel a sense of relief, knowing you don’t have to think too much about how you’ll change your dog’s behaviour. You can put that energy back into your relationship with your dog and enjoy them, and I will coach you through the practical steps to achieve your goals.
