Teenage Dogs

The adolescent stage can be tough - no, really tough! But if you’ve clicked onto this page and are reading this paragraph, you probably already know this. Hopefully it will come as a relief to know that it IS a normal and natural part of dog development for your adorable puppy to switch off their listening ears and start screaming that you’re ruining their life (figuratively of course). But normal and natural or not, this knowledge doesn’t help you to actually survive it. Thankfully, I have something to help with that part…

The Teenage
Dog Options

So, does it feel like your adorable puppy has slowly (or suddenly) turned into a bit of a knob? Do they no longer listen to you, show you up when you’re out and about and constantly get into mischief? Maybe it feels like you’re taking one step forward and two steps back everyday, and that as much as you love them, you just don’t like them right now.

If this sounds like you; congratulations, you’ve entered the dreaded teenage stage - but don’t worry, because you’re not alone. I’ve been where you are and I know from experience how testing it can be, which is exactly why I’ve created my ‘Teenage Survival’ Packs and my ‘Teenage Dirt Dog’ monthly club!

These packages are for you if:

  • Your dog is between 6 months to 3 years old

  • You want help navigating the tricky adolescent period

  • You are dedicated to learning more about your dog’s needs and behaviour

  • You live in East Kent (Herne Bay, Whitstable, Canterbury, Faversham & Thanet).

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.

  • The Teenage Survival Packs offer tailored 1-1 Sessions and frequent 1-1 follow-on support, through private email or Whatsapp message.

    The Monthly Club offers community support through a Whatsapp Group Chat with other members.

  • There’s no pressure over which package you should choose, nor any judgement - simply pick whichever best suits your current circumstances. If you need help deciding, however, here is an insight of my vision whilst I was designing the options:

    If your teenage dog’s behaviour feels intense or overwhelming, you’re likely going to benefit from the more frequent sessions of the Super Packages.

    If you’re looking to build on the solid foundations you already have but need help riding that rougher teenage wave, the less frequent sessions of the Standard Packages might be for you.

  • Once you’ve finished your pack you can progress onto the ‘Teenage Dirt Dog’ Monthly Club.

    Alternatively, if you would like to continue with individual support and/or the number of sessions you are having, I can move you onto a rolling monthly subscription version of your package.

  • Every 3rd Friday of the Month at 7pm

  • As long as you want - but you can cancel your monthly subscription at any time!

  • 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.
