Transformational Puppy Training
Serving Uckfield, Crowborough, Lewes and surroundings (see FAQs)
Give your new puppy the best start in life
Puppies are amazing. They’re enthusiastic, inquisitive, and an endless source of delight. They can also very easily develop habits and coping strategies which are unhelpful for them, incompatible with your lifestyle, or even dangerous for them or other dogs or people.
Concept Training gives your puppy real-world life skills – here are some examples:
True calmness is vital for the type of rest which grows a healthy body. It’s also an incredibly valuable skill to have in the face of distractions. A puppy who can calm quickly – and stay calm – is a predictable dog you can take anywhere.
The world is an exciting place for puppies – but exposing them to too much, too early, can quickly become overwhelming and lead to anxiety or even fear-based responses. A puppy with the right amount of appropriate socialisation is an easy-going, confident adult dog.
Puppies want to explore everything – and that means with their mouths. Teaching impulse control from an early age creates a patient and frustration-tolerant dog, redirects ‘nipping’, and provides a vital puppy safety net with cues like “DROP!”.
I’ll teach you to train your puppy like a pro
You’ll learn to manage the environment to set your puppy up for success. You’ll learn to train FOR the situation, instead of trying to train IN the situation (which is a quick route to frustration and failure).
My easy to remember, systematic approach to behaviour management and training. Learn to approach your puppy’s training like a pro – to assess, manage, and then train according to their needs at that moment.
Once you’re thinking like a pro, you’ll be ready for pretty much anything. You’ll be able to adapt the games and strategies you’ve learned and use them in different situations, or with different dogs.
Structure & Pricing
(See the Structure page for more detail about each stage)
A short video call. This gives you the opportunity to see how I work, and gives me an idea of your dog’s needs. It's your opportunity to ask any questions you may have about the process.
We work out where you currently are, and where you want to be, with your dog(s). We then set out what skills we need to start building to get you moving towards your goals.
Highly targeted sessions, each building skills on top of the last. I create 'cue cards' to help you learn, and you feed back to me between sessions so we keep everyone on track.
My approach (making you the trainer) is wildly different to traditional 'dog training' - and it works, time and time again.
