Dog Training and Behaviour Support in Midland and Port Severn

Every dog and every household is different, so the plan should be too. I work with you in your home and in the places where the behaviour actually happens, using reward-based methods and a plan built around your day, not a generic program.

What Can I Help With?

A person giving a treat to a white puppy wearing a red collar with a blue buckle. The puppy appears happy and engaged. Text overlay says "Puppy Training" and "Foundations for Real Life" against a plain gray background.

Biting, house training, jumping, leash walking, and helping your puppy build confidence before problems start.

Dog Training

Leash pulling, recall, greeting manners, settling, and rescue dogs adjusting to a new home.

Behaviour & Reactivity Support

Barking, lunging, fear, guarding, and dogs who find the world harder than most.

How We Get Started

1. Free 15-minute call. We talk through what's going on and whether I'm the right fit. No pressure, no pitch.

2. Starter Session. A one-time in-home assessment, 60 to 90 minutes. We look at the whole picture, talk through your goals, and you leave with a plan and practical strategies you can start using that day.

3. Ongoing support, if you want it. Some people are set after one session. Others want a package. We decide after the Starter Session, not before.

Sessions can be in-home, day training where I work directly with your dog, or virtual when in-person isn't practical.

How I Work

I focus on what's driving your dog's behaviour, not just what it looks like on the surface. That means looking at their environment, their history, what they've learned works so far, and how they're feeling in the moment it happens.

Behaviour is information. Most of my job is helping you read it, and then helping you respond in a way that actually changes something.

No prong collars, no e-collars, no punishment-based methods. Not because it's trendy, but because it isn't necessary and it makes most behaviour problems worse.

Ready to Get Started?

Book a free 15-minute call and we'll talk through what's been going on, what's been hardest, and what support could look like for your dog.

If you'd rather start by email, send me a message and I'll get back to you within 1-2 business days.
