Canine Behavioural Counselling
Initial Home Visit Consultation = £100
This includes:
• A written plan which you will receive shortly after the initial home visit.
• A behavioural treatment session at your home
There is no fixed time per session as every dog and their human is individual.
Follow Up Sessions = £25 per session
Follow up sessions happen where the treatment plan has to be delivered in stages or where the owner is concerned about several problem behaviours. There is no fixed time per session – usually these can average between 1.5h and 2h depending on the issue, treatment session required and owner availability.
During the first home visit I carry out a full assessment of your dog by asking you lots of questions about your dog and observe any problem behaviours where possible. This lets me to think about all aspects of the dog’s health, lifestyle, home and family environment. The information you give me allows me to analyze the possible underlying reasons for your dog’s issues or behaviours.
I then develop a training plan for you follow, which is unique to you and your dog.
As a canine behaviour counsellor I can assist and guide you to address the problem with your dog. For the treatment to be successful your commitment is essential. Together we can address the issues with your dog.
All the techniques I use and recommend are reward based and do not involve punishment.
Positive Reinforcement rewards good behaviour. A food treat, play, cuddle or any related stimuli the dog considers a treat allows us to change and correct a pattern of behaviour.
