So you have a new puppy? Raising a puppy is a big commitment. Some owners can feel overwhelmed and often attending a group puppy class isn’t enough to really address a longer term plan for you and your young dog. This is where I can help, particularly for those who have a young family at home, are first time dog owners or perhaps have a high drive working dog that they want to have a solid plan in place for.

Puppy Schools can be great however getting your puppy to focus and engage with you is THE most important thing, before you start layering in distractions such as other dogs. From pups as young as 8 weeks who can’t safely be placed in public setting’s given they aren’t fully vaccinated, I work with owners in the convenience of their home with private lessons to make sure they are building all the right foundations to set them up for success now and in the future.

I help inform you on all aspects of raising a puppy, not just your basic obedience. From toilet training, management in the home, obedience, play and socialisation, through to more niche situations such as how to manage your rambunctious puppy around small children or perhaps introducing them safely into a multi dog home.
