Transform Your Dog's Behaviour
Reactivity Training
Separation Anxiety Training
Separation Anxiety Training
Understanding, Not Judging
Reactivity towards other dogs or people is one of the most common and challenging issues owners face. It often stems from a deep-seated fear or anxiety. At its core, your dog is saying, "I'm scared! Please make that thing go away!"
Our expert trainer, Steve, approaches every dog with empathy and care. His philosophy is simple: we must address the cause, not just the symptom. Through a holistic approach, he gets to know your dog as an individual – their personality, their history, and their home environment – to create a training plan that builds trust and confidence from the ground up.
Experience a positive and caring approach to training with Steve, our lead dog trainer. He offers a uniquely personal and empathetic service, specialising in tailored in home dog training packages designed for your dog's specific needs and your family's lifestyle. As a fully certified and insured professional dog trainer, Steve combines his expertise with a genuine passion for helping you achieve a calmer, more enjoyable life with your companion.

Separation Anxiety Training
It’s Not Spite, It’s Fear
The first and most important step is understanding. A dog with separation anxiety isn't acting out of spite or trying to punish you for leaving. They are in the grip of a powerful panic, and their actions are a desperate cry for help.
Our experienced trainers recognise this cry for what it is. With deep empathy and proven, gentle techniques, we help your dog untangle their fear. We don't just stop the chewing; we build their resilience and teach them that solitude can be peaceful. We help them discover their own independence, one calm moment at a time.

Separation Anxiety Training
Rescue Dogs
From a Frightened Stranger to a Cherished Family Member
Bringing a rescue dog home is a journey of hope. But for your new companion, it’s a journey into the unknown – a world of new smells, new sounds, and new faces. Their past has taught them to be wary, and their anxiety is their shield.
You see the beautiful soul hiding behind those worried eyes, and all you want is to help them feel safe. But watching them remain anxious, unable to settle and enjoy their new life, can be incredibly difficult. You might feel a pressure to "fix" them, when all they really need is time, patience, and the right kind of understanding.
