Dog Training

Do you feel your dog exhibits embarrassing, frustrating or dangerous behaviours? Does your dog only listen to you when it is convenient to them? Does your dog engage in jumping up, pulling on the leash, running off, ignoring commands, destructive behaviour or other issues?

I can help to create a better relationship with your dog by providing a training programme that focuses on training that includes both the owner and dog, resulting in owners able to live a happier and less stressful life with their dogs.
