Tell me briefly what is happening and what you would like help with. If there is a clearer route than the one you had in mind, I can point you towards it.
You do not need to write a full case history in the first message. Tell me what the main problem is, roughly how long it has been happening and what you would like help with. I normally reply within 3–5 working days.
These pages explain the starting point and what happens next.
Fear, aggression, guarding, repeated reactivity, separation problems or behaviour that feels unpredictable.
Everyday training, recall, engagement, lead work or specialist training where the dog is able to learn.
Please do not send detailed medical records or other sensitive documents through this form. If I need additional information, I will let you know what is useful.
If we have already worked together, use the form to ask about Practice & Regular Coaching or Calm Practice. You do not need to complete a new behaviour enquiry just to arrange continuing work.
All About Puppies can start before collection if you want help preparing the house, routines and first few days.
