Everyday training
Does your dog ignore every word you say? Is your recall more like a pantomime performance across the park? Are you tired of saying the word ‘sit’ over and over again? Or maybe you simply want to teach something fun and fancy looking?
If any of the above apply to you then my Everyday Training is the best place to start!
is Everyday Training what you need?
My Everyday Training support is the perfect option for introducing new skills to your dog and improving on existing ones. I believe that basic training is essential in order to give your dog the freedom and fun that can help provide them with happier and healthier lives.
Examples of Everyday Training include, but aren’t limited to:
Loose Lead Walking (aka not pulling)
Recall (coming back when called)
Basic Skills - ‘Sit’, ‘Lie Down’, ‘Go To Bed’ (or other target). etc.
Safety Skills - Emergency Stop, sit-stay, ‘Drop’, ‘Leave It’, heel-sit, heel-walking, ect.
Basic Manners - No jumping up at visitors/surfaces, mealtime manners, furniture manners, etc.
Fun Tricks & Tasks - ‘Selfie’, tidy-up toys, pick-up an object/retrieve, close/open a door, ‘High-Five’ and so much more.
Co-operative Care - Introducing grooming tools, pet equipment, vet/groomer type handling and skills for procedures such as nail clipping and blood draws, to help reduce the likelihood of future behaviour issues.
Play & Enrichment - Giving your dog safe outlets for the things they were born to do, building skills and exercising their body and brain while doing so.
Do you need Everyday Training or Behaviour Support?
It can be tricky to know whether the issues you’re facing fall under the category of Training or Behaviour. As a general rule of thumb, if you feel that your dog is acting or reacting due to an emotion (such as fear, anxiety, ‘aggression’, frustration or intense over-excitement) or due to something that is physically wrong (such as pain, illness or something not quite ‘right’) then my Behaviour Support services would be the best place to start.
If your’re looking for help with something that doesn’t fall within the categories, or if you’re just not certain, please get in touch and I can point you in the right direction!

FAQs
-
If you’re within my catchment area of Herne Bay, Canterbury, Whitstable, Faversham, & Thanet I can come to you for in-person sessions.
If not, don’t worry! Get in touch and we can discuss online training support.
-
With in-person training, we will be working together on a one-on-one basis at an appropriate location, meaning that you will have my undivided attention and focus, as opposed to working in a class environment where my attention would need to be split among other dogs and their owners.
This allows for a truly tailored approach to your training, where we can go at your pace. I will be able to provide training technique demonstrations with your dog, if desired, and observe first hand any issues you may be having with the training.
With in-person training the whole family can get involved, but I respectfully ask that other arrangements are made for childcare if the presence of younger children is likely to hinder or affect your own ability to listen and learn, or the training itself.
-
Most initial training sessions will take place in your home and garden, then as training progresses we will utilise the areas local to you, to help ‘real world proof’ the training we have been working on, where necessary.
-
Accessibility for disabilities is vital and something I believe in strongly. Please be sure to let me know of any accommodations you require in advance - you will be prompted to do so during the booking process but if there is anything you forget to include, please email me - and I will do everything I can to ensure these are met.
