Puppy Starter Kit
Bringing a new puppy into your life is an exciting adventure—but it can also be overwhelming, especially in the first few weeks when you're waiting for that first walk. You want to give your puppy the best possible start, but where do you begin? Our Puppy Starter Kit is designed to support new puppy owners in those crucial first few weeks, helping you build a strong foundation for a well-behaved, confident dog.
Our package includes two 1-hour sessions, with the first one offered either virtually or in-person. The first session is ideally scheduled before or within the first two weeks of bringing your puppy home, and the second session takes place 1-2 weeks later, in-person, to build on your progress and address any challenges.
What We Cover in the Puppy Starter Kit:
Safe Socialisation: Learn how to start socialising your puppy before they can go on walks, so they grow up confident around new people, pets, and environments.
House Training & Crate Training: Establish a reliable routine and ensure your puppy is comfortable in their crate, setting the foundation for good habits from the start.
Mouthing & Chewing: Stop destructive chewing and help your puppy learn bite inhibition in a positive, gentle way.
Focus & Name Recognition: Teach your puppy to focus on you and respond to their name, even when distracted, setting up strong communication.
Introduction to Lead Walking: Begin the process of leash training and set your puppy up for success on walks without pulling or dragging.
Recall Basics: Get your puppy started on coming when called—an essential skill for their safety and your peace of mind.
Grooming & Handling: Help your puppy get used to grooming and being handled in a calm, stress-free manner.
Teaching Puppy to Settle: Create a peaceful environment by teaching your puppy to settle and relax, both in your home and on the go.
Swapping & Dropping Items: Teach your puppy to exchange objects safely and drop things they shouldn’t have, preventing potential hazards.
Not a First-Time Dog Owner? No Problem!
If you're not a first-time dog owner, we’ll tailor the Puppy Starter Kit to meet your needs. If house training isn’t an issue for you, we can focus more on the areas you want to improve, like recall or lead walking.
Package 1: virtual 1st session, in-person second session £135
Package 2: both sessions in person: £150

Power of the Pattern Sessions: Building Resilience and Confidence
Our Power of the Pattern Sessions are designed to help your dog build essential resilience, confidence, and self-control through Control Unleashed Pattern Games. These structured, engaging exercises help your dog develop the mental fortitude to navigate new or challenging situations with calm and confidence.
By practicing these patterns, your dog learns to manage stress, cope with distractions, and become more adaptable in different environments. This resilience-building process helps them feel more secure and capable in the face of real-life challenges, whether at home, on walks, or in busy public spaces. These sessions are particularly beneficial for dogs who struggle on walks and become overly focused on greeting every dog or person they encounter. By reinforcing self-control and impulse management, your dog will gain the ability to remain calm and composed during walks, even in distracting environments.
For owners, these sessions provide the opportunity to enhance your dog’s confidence while fostering a deeper connection and understanding of how to support them in various scenarios. As you and your dog work together on these exercises, you'll build a stronger, more resilient team ready to tackle everyday challenges with confidence and ease.
Whether your dog struggles with anxiety, reactivity, or simply needs to build their emotional resilience, Power of the Pattern Sessions offer a fun, effective way to transform their ability to handle stress and develop confidence.
In person sessions: £75 for 1 hour
Virtual sessions: £65 for 1 hour.
Discounts are available for block bookings.
121 scentwork
Our 1-2-1 Scentwork sessions are a fantastic way to engage your dog’s mind while providing an outlet for their natural instincts. Whether your dog is a young pup bursting with energy, an older dog in need of mental stimulation, or a reactive dog that struggles to cope with their environment at home or on walks, scentwork is an excellent way to help them build confidence and focus.
Why Scentwork?
Scentwork is more than just a fun activity; it offers a wealth of benefits for dogs of all ages, breeds, and temperaments:
Mental Stimulation: Dogs need mental as well as physical exercise. Scentwork exercises their brain, helping to tire them out in a fulfilling way.
Boosts Confidence: For dogs who may be nervous or reactive, scentwork provides a safe, controlled environment for them to explore new spaces and practice focus. The act of finding a hidden item allows them to succeed and builds their self-assurance.
Improves Focus & Self-Control: Through scentwork, dogs learn how to tune out distractions and concentrate on the task at hand. This can be invaluable for training in other areas of your dog's life.
Suitable for All Dogs: Whether your dog is a high-energy puppy, an elderly dog in need of gentle stimulation, or a reactive dog needing a structured outlet for their energy, scentwork can be tailored to suit their individual needs and pace.
How It Works:
During your 1-2-1 session, we will introduce your dog to the world of scentwork in a calm, structured way. As your dog progresses, we'll gradually increase the complexity of the searches, ensuring a steady and enjoyable learning experience. We will specifically show you how to use scentwork effectively on your walks.
By incorporating scentwork into your dog's routine, you're not just providing them with a fun activity—you’re enriching their life, enhancing their skills, and helping them become a more confident, well-rounded companion.

Consent-based training for vet visits and handling
Our Consent-Based Training sessions are designed to help your dog build confidence and comfort with vet visits and handling using positive reinforcement. Think of it like a dentist giving you a break when you raise your hand — the process is still happening, but it's at your pace, and you have control over how it unfolds. This approach helps reduce stress and anxiety by allowing your dog to feel more in control and empowered during these necessary experiences.
By teaching your dog that they have a choice in the process, we reduce the fear and anxiety that often come with vet visits, grooming, and other handling situations. With positive reinforcement, we reward your dog for calm behaviour, making each step of the process a more positive experience for them. The goal is for your dog to feel confident and cooperative, knowing they can take breaks and that they’re supported every step of the way.
These sessions are perfect for dogs who are nervous or fearful of handling, vet visits, or being touched in certain areas of their body. Through gradual, reward-based training, your dog will learn to trust the process and participate willingly, making these experiences smoother and less stressful.
In addition to vet visits and grooming, this training is also incredibly useful for at-home situations like getting your dog’s collar or harness on for walks. By helping your dog become comfortable with these daily routines, you’ll reduce the stress they may feel when it’s time for a walk, making the whole experience more enjoyable for both of you.
For you as the owner, these sessions not only teach you how to support your dog during veterinary visits and grooming but also help strengthen your bond and build trust. The skills learned will make daily handling, grooming, and getting ready for walks easier and more enjoyable for both you and your dog.
Whether your dog is anxious, fearful, or just unsure about being touched, Consent-Based Training provides a compassionate and effective way to help them build confidence, one step at a time.
