Coaching/Training Packages
The coaching/training packages offer assistance with the more common problems we might encounter with our dogs, the type of things that crop up on a daily basis, for example, jumping up, barking at the window, pulling on the lead, recall, etc. My role is to coach and guide, empower and build confidence, teaching clients new practical skills so they are better equipped to help their dogs learn. I am keen to help people improve their observation skills, learn about dog body language and to understand their dogs better … I help them to think more ‘like a dog’.
When booking a coaching/training package, full payment is required in advance prior to the first session. Each package includes a bullet point summary in the price, emailed to you after the session for your reference plus any resources which have been recommended.
So, for those clients where a little extra guidance and support is required, and where one hour is not sufficient, the following options are available:
The Dog-tastic /Duo Package:
1 x 2 hour session (or 2 x 1 hour sessions where appropriate)
£95
A two hour session in your home, or a combo of home/outdoor work if appropriate. This package is ideal as an assessment, a starting point, as an introductory session before embarking on further training, or as a one-off longer session where you can relax knowing you have plenty of time to cover everything and ask questions. Where appropriate, 2 x 1 hour sessions may be available as an alternative option.
Paws-in-Progress Package:
3 x 1 hour sessions
£135
This package consists of three 1 hour sessions, designed to be flexible and can be adapted to your specific requirements – e.g. indoor, outdoor, working on one of the essential skills like recall, a particular location or context, or a combination. It is ideal for those who would benefit from ongoing support over a few sessions, with the opportunity to practise newly learned skills and techniques in between. My job is to help you on the path toward achieving your goals with your dog, improving understanding and communication between you, teaching practical everyday training skills and building confidence through increased knowledge and practice.
The Paws-itive Package:
Three sessions consisting of:
Session 1: 1½ hours
Session 2: 1 hour
Session 3: 1 hour
£150
Three sessions, the first of which is of longer duration to allow time for obtaining initial background information and assessing where you are up to. This part of the session is really important as it allows me to gain an insight into your goals, expectations, frustrations, anything that’s holding you back, and any specific factors which need to be considered. The subsequent sessions provide opportunities for some practical work if appropriate and allow us to look at progress and any areas that need attention or a bit of a tweak. The aim is to gently progress over the course of three sessions so that people feel better equipped with a clearer understanding of their dogs and with practical skills to continue helping them learn and improve.
Best-Paw-Forward Package:
4 x 1 hour sessions
£170
This package offers four conveniently spaced 1 hour sessions, again designed to be flexible and adaptable and to fit easily into your schedule. Suitable for all ages of dog, and working on anything from essential everyday skills to particular areas that need special attention, or perhaps a specific area of concern, the Best-Paw-Forward option is an ideal choice if you would like the reassurance of a few regular sessions and the ongoing support that this provides.
The Ulti-Mutt Package:
Four sessions consisting of:
Session 1: 1½ hours
Session 2: 1 hour
Session 3: 1 hour
Session 4: 1 hour
£185
Four sessions, the first of which is of longer duration to allow time for essential background information and getting an idea of where you are up to. This part of the session is really important as it allows me to discover what you would like to achieve with your dog, your expectations, frustrations, any blocks that are holding you back, and any specifics which need to be considered. The subsequent sessions allow us to review progress to date and build on what is already learned, recapping, consolidating and moving forward. This package is suitable for those who would like the reassurance of a few regular follow-up sessions providing ongoing support.
Follow-Up Coaching/Training Session:
£45 per hour
A follow up session* for previous Package clients, to check in with progress, look at anything that may have cropped up in the interim and help you stay on track.
(*within 12 months)
