Basic
Training

The fundamental areas of creating a happy dog and a happy home… Walking on and off lead, general obedience (the all important recall, for example), manners, feeding time, puppy development, and more.

Behaviour
Modification

Unwanted behaviour in dogs can lead to very distressing situations. With effective guidance, such behaviours can be adjusted or eradicated; making for a much happier relationship between you and your hairy housemate.

Habit
Breaking

Dogs behave spontaneously, they do not consider the consequences of their actions, and therefore they don’t know right or wrong. This can lead to all sorts of repetitive behaviours that may end up damaging your relationship with them, or perhaps even your dog’s health.

"Katie has been an asset to us and our two pups, and is continuing to be. Her knowledge, patience and quick responses have been incredibly helpful & reassuring. Katie has been helping us in training our two to control their natural impulses and instinctive behaviour. "
Services
"After our first session with Katie, she provided us a lovely but informative observation document on us and our dogs where she captured their personalities perfectly whilst also providing homework for us to work on in the meantime. We’re very much looking forward to our second session with Katie."
Services
"Katie has a ton of knowledge that she passes on in a very easy to understand way. She demonstrated the tasks, making my dog look like an absolute angel, and then gave me guidance on how to approach it myself. There was explanation with every exercise as for the why behind it and it all made so much sense! Loads of good advice followed by with written instructions for me to refer to."
Services
"Katie has been a brilliant help with my Westie puppy Jago. She has given me some great advice and confidence and has helped us to have a lot more fun on our walks. The training plan was easy to use, gave clear instructions and we will continue to use the guidance. I would highly recommend Katie and - if we need to - would definitely seek advice from her again in the future. Thanks Katie for all your help."
Services
"Katie has helped us so much with Rosie who was struggling with toileting, walks, and the big wide world. With Katie’s help and guidance we’ve really noticed the difference in our little girl. Walks are now so much easier now we have things in place,; we are going to continue our journey with further training and I highly recommend Katie. 10 out of 10 thanks so much!!!"
Services
"Katie has been a fantastic coach, tuned in to what our pup (Holly) is telling us and also to how to help me and my partner understand. We have a happy and attentive dog and a hundred ideas for how to strengthen the bond with her. I couldn't be happier."
Services
"Our Gus is developing completely new behaviours and it is unbelievable. Taking him away on holiday has been so enjoyable (unlike historical getaways which have been real hard work) we feel like we've had a family holiday that we've always wanted since getting Gus. Being able to sit down for a 2 course meal, with Gus being complimented on his behaviour was something I never imagined happening! Thank you so much for all your help and support!"
