How can I help you?
Are you looking for Recall Training, help with a brand new puppy or a terrible teen?
Maybe you have an anxious dog, one that can't be left home alone, or one dealing with other issues.
I offer a range of 121 sessions and group classes - look below for the right service for you
If I can't support you for any reason, I can often refer on to an alternative behaviour expert.
ROCKET RECALL
DO YOU WANT YOUR DOG TO HAVE A MUCH BETTER RECALL?
If you asked any dog if they would rather a life on or off the lead... I think we know what their answer would be!
Of course, there are sometimes reasons that dogs really must stay on the lead, but if you’re just worried that they won’t come back, help is at hand.
It’s never too late to teach an old dog new tricks, so join Rocket Recall and give your dog the off-lead freedom they will love. It may also help with other issues you might be having.
You get expert coaching, loads of useful tips and support in between the sessions.
PUPPY POWER
DO YOU HAVE A PUPPY UNDER 17 WEEKS?
If you have a wonderful new puppy, you have a golden opportunity to get things right from the time you collect your new puppy (even beforehand!)
Don’t leave anything to chance! Invest in your future together.
Puppies that don't get the right experiences from the very start, can end up with a variety of behaviour issues, including fear & aggression, not wanting to be handled, never being able to stay home alone, toileting in the house and many other issues.
Training at a young age will also set you up for an easier life!
GENERAL BEHAVIOUR TRAINING
DO YOU HAVE A DOG THAT JUST DOESN'T SEEM TO LISTEN TO YOU?
Is your dog doing something that you don’t want them to do, or maybe they won't do something that you DO want them to do!
If you want to start training your dog and learning about ways to make everyone's life a little bit easier, then start with an intensive 2 hour Behaviour Buster Session.
This is not suitable for dogs that are showing anxiety, avoidance, aggression (growling, snapping etc). See Anxious/ Reactive Dogs for this.
ANXIOUS /REACTIVE DOGS
DO YOU HAVE A DOG THAT STRUGGLES IN SOME SITUATIONS?
Whilst we may be tempted to think that our dogs are being ‘naughty, a lot of aggressive behaviour in dogs stems from fear and anxiety. This can’t be a nice way to live, and I’d love to help.
If your dog is growling, lunging, snapping, biting hiding, cowering toileting or similar behaviours, this is possibly stemming from fear. Maybe you can't leave the house, without them becoming stressed?
The starting point is to book a Behaviour Breakthrough Session to get to the bottom of what is going on for your dog, and to make a start on ways to help.
How do I approach training?
I am ethical and kind and show empathy to my clients.
I like to make sessions enjoyable, supportive, and paced so you don’t feel overwhelmed.
I keep classes small, so I can provide individual help for each dog and owner.
"I took my tiny 8-month-old fluffy puppy to 'Rocket Recall' with Hayley. She really enjoyed herself and learned very quickly. The whole family also enjoyed being trained!"
