EVERY SINGLE DOG OF THE DAY. I wasn’t joking when I said I’m busy. Not finished yet. Human aggressive Frenchies are on the rise, due to reasons that I’m not posting about here because it will hurt peoples feelings. Doing solid work with this case cultivating calm and heavily correcting sh*thousery 🕺🏻

Behavioural work is what I love to do. From lead pulling all the way through to human aggression I like to get amongst it and work with owners to change their dog’s lives - but progressive, continuous results can be achieved by taking advantage of my structured walk service.

This isn’t a case of some tummy tickler who lobs your dog in a van and let’s them run around a field with the onus on maximising the number of dogs to make more money.

I use consistency, structure and controlled environmental exposure to guide, train and where necessary, challenge your dog to become the best they can be, all whilst getting their necessary exercise and migratory needs fulfilled! I learn more about dogs from working with them and walking them regularly over the long term than I do by being attacked in your front garden whilst having to pretend it doesn’t bother me.

If you care to regard the very artistic and stylish notes screenshot above you will see the rare opportunity to become a walking client in the available time slots. I have keys (securely stored) for many clients’ homes or some use coded lockboxes so don’t worry if you are not there at the available times to facilitate a handover.

Please get in touch via DM if you would like to sign up to 2 or more of the available slots - bookings for one walk per week may also be considered! There has been a 3 month wait and a lot of jiggery pokery of my training schedule to allow me to provide these extra sessions so I will say something like DON’T DELAY and put it in block caps in order to cultivate a sense of demand and excitement 🕺🏻

Puppy Foundation session (Dogs under 16 weeks) - Initial 90min consultation £60 then additional sessions £50 if required or needed!

6 months. That’s how much controlled, gradual, daily exposure it took before I let my dog and my son hang out off lead.
Kids move quickly and they make squeaky noises and it is a lot of fun for dogs to chase and bite things that move quickly and make squeaky noises. Accidents happen when you rush and they happen when you force your dog to be uncomfortable.
Buddy was crated and desensitised to my son’s noise and movement, then introduced on lead for exponentially increasing periods of time. Then allowed off lead if he held a place or a down around him. Then, after six months of integration, allowed to just exist as mates.
6 months of f***ing around is worth it for a relationship like the one they have. Don’t be impatient, don’t be stupid, do it properly and have no regrets.

Smashed a personal record today with lead puller Murphy, getting to a one finger walk in about 3 minutes. That’s not an exaggeration. If your dog is pulling on the lead and you want to enjoy your walks I’m your best option for miles. For lead pulling there’s no complicated, drawn-out training plans keeping you on the hook for hundreds and hundreds of pounds. No breaking your back and no silly baby talk or a pocket full of cheese to bribe your dog.
I can’t promise a 3 minute fix every time but I can promise you I’ll teach you my methods and fix any problem you have as quickly, fairly and honestly as I can!

Message today for availability 6 days a week to fix lead pulling, any other behavioural issues including aggression & reactivity, or for any obedience requirements.

Cheers.

Cheers

Stunning session with Thor the Micro (35kg micro lol) Bully and his really lovely family. I’d work bullies every day if I could they have my whole heart and what is happening to the breed under owners and unscrupulous breeders who aren’t as attentive and keen to learn as Thor’s family is fu***ng heartbreaking.

I have been physically compromised recently due to my body refusing to be 17 years old anymore but I have managed to get some v nice engagement and loose lead sessions done, and as I totally forgot to upload any content you can have it all as one nice big complication!

Here’s some lead walking stuff I’ve done recently. All of these clips were in less than an hour of one session. If your dog is pulling you all over the shop, stopping every five yards, reacting to every dog or person they see, doesn’t know you exist outside of the house - I promise you I can change that and turn walks in to an absolute pleasure. Please message for this or ANY dog training requirements 😀

Teaching Big Flynn some nice walking. If your dog’s pulling and lunging and choking and all that nonsense then please message, I’ll fix it and show you how you can turn miserable walks in to the highlight of your day.

Having a classic Monday. Message me for all your dog behavioural or dog training needs! I’ll try my best to stay on my feet. Read my reviews and get in touch for fast, fair solutions to your problems. I met someone on Saturday who is spending TWICE as much as I cost on a solution that took twice as long 🤯

Cheers to all this week’s clients for making it one of the best! As penance for a good week my own dog decided to ruin my jacket. Don’t try this at home (but if you do want to try this at home and your dog doesn’t have any obedience or an off button message me and we’ll get you booked in to sort that out)

Two dogs I’ve worked with today. If your dog is pulling like a train, doesn’t know you exist outdoors and walks are the bane of your life, I think you and your dog deserve a lot more. A walk is a relationship not a fight, it should be the highlight of your day. Message for fast, fair results for any behavioural issues.

We came so far, Ted! From crazy door reactivity to here! Good luck to you mate! If you’re struggling with any behavioural problems, or would just like to start out on the route to a reliable, obedient dog - please message today for availability 6 days a week! No lost causes. No problem too big or small.

Onion the Shiba x Pom is notoriously a neurotic, anxious weirdo around other dogs, but using strategies and leadership instilled during our consultation he’s looking pretty chill to me! Onion you are the most ridiculous dog I have ever met and I love you very much . . . DM for efficient, real world behaviour modification 🐩

Miller is 2 year old Presa who was beasting his owner all over the place on a halti, and was really quite unsafe. He knows his strength and he loves to throw his weight around. He was as good as unwalkable. We had to change up the tools and start to LEAD. The stress and worry instantly evaporating from him as he realised he didn’t have to carry the pressure of making decisions anymore was genuinely emotional for both me and his owner. We did a full tune up without treats and the lure is used towards the end of the session to reward him for a bit of accuracy. Huge results in our first session. I’m 6’2 look at the size of this tough guy! I absolutely love him! . . . . . #dogtraining #dogtrainer #presacanario #presa #balancedtrainer #balancedtraining #leadership

Onion the Shiba x Pom struggles with the concept of new faces in the house. He’s just an anxious little goof who needs clear, concise communication and to stop worrying so much. We opened up a whole new line of communication and got him settled in no time. If your dog struggles with anxiety or reactivity please contact us. We would love to help you take that weight off your dog’s shoulders.
