My puppy is already showing aggressive behaviours, can you help? Absolutely! It is not uncommon for puppies to display aggressive or possessive behaviours t an early age. The consultation will give us the opportunity to address this and ensure it does not progress any further.
Does my puppy need to be fully vaccinated? No, not for the consultation. This will be carried out in the home environment so there is no risk for unvaccinated pups. Should you wish to carry out additional training sessions then this will likely to wait until full vaccination.
What training methods do you use? Our approach tailors training methods to match the unique needs, characteristics and current training level of each individual dog. Grounded in scientific principles, our methods prioritise patience and balance to foster a bond built on trust and respect. We embrace flexibility, avoiding rigid adherence to a single methodology, thus ensuring we can effectively provide help for every dog. The ultimate goal is to empower owners with the knowledge and techniques necessary not only to train their current dog but also to sustain a lifetime of successful dog ownership.
"Can't thank Callum enough with helping our dog who was so scared and anxious regarding going out for walks. Before contacting Callum we tried everything to get her walking outside, including anxiety medication from our vet.
​
Callum spent time getting to know our dog and observing her behaviour. We have literally only had two sessions with Callum and our dog is walking again on her lead. We have been provided with advice to carry on the training at home and will have regular contact to see how we are getting on and this is brilliant for us.
​
My family can't thank Callum enough for what he has one with our dog."
