One to one training
Group work does not suit every dog or every family. Maybe you have unusual or changeable working hours, mobility issues, family members who need you to be there at all times, or a myriad of other reasons. One to one work also means that the work you are doing with your dog is fully tailored to you and your situation.
Depending on the case, either training at your home or in our training field just outside of Prosperous, Kildare may be more applicable and will be discussed with you.
To begin our one to one training journey we start with a Training Consultation. This is a 90 minute session where we get to know you and your dog better along with what you want to work on. This allows us to design a full training plan to best suit you and your dog's needs.
Address the issues appropriately
Whether we are looking at leash walking, jumping up, or recall, each dog learns in a slightly different way. Academic learning theory holds throughout, but how it is implemented varies dog to dog and family to family so it is often best to tweak how we work on a specific issue based on the dog, their personality, learning history, and learning style.
Tailored training plan
While it may feel like you 'just' need to work on leash walking, for example, often there are a large number of supporting behaviours also required. For example, does your dog get distracted at cars, smells, children, dogs, etc. Are they already good at looking for your attention or do they just pull like crazy to get where they want to go. It is important that what we teach your dog is applicable, safe, and robust to daily life.
Between sessions progression
During your coursework we will ask you to upload video snippets of your practice so that we can make sure it is progressing in the right direction. If there are issues we can tweak what you are doing and if not we can often get you moving ahead further than set at the last session. This ensures faster progression rather than having to wait until you see your trainer again in person.
