Is your dog showing any of these behaviours?
Does your dog bark excessively at the door?
Cry, whine, or have accidents when left alone?
Seem anxious or reluctant to go for walks?
Lunge, bark, or react strongly towards people or other dogs?
Even one of these challenges may indicate that your dog is struggling and could benefit from behavioural guidance or rehabilitation training.
If you're unsure whether your dog’s behaviour requires support, feel free to get in touch — I’ll be happy to advise you.
My dog rehabilitation training packages are tailored to suit dogs of all ages, ranging from puppies to adult dogs.
I use positive reinforcement, desensitization & counterconditioning techniques.
Using desensitization and counter-conditioning techniques, I help your dog unlearn ingrained behaviors and lessen their reactivity or anxiety. Desensitization gradually exposes your dog to triggers, while counter-conditioning pairs these triggers with positive experiences to alter their emotional response. Through these methods, I aim to make your dog less reactive and more relaxed in previously stressful situations.
This package is tailored to support and rehabilitate dogs experiencing:
-
Aggression towards people or other dogs
-
Anxiety or fear
-
Separation anxiety (initially one 1.5 hour session suggested)
-
PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder)
-
Resource guarding (initially one 1.5 hour session suggested)
-
Reactive behavior
-
Excessive barking or whining (initially one 1.5 hour session suggested)
Understanding Behavioural Training and Rehabilitation
Behavioural training and dog rehabilitation are very different from general obedience training. Many behavioural challenges are not simply training issues but emotional responses from the dog.
Because of this, the work we do may not always look like traditional training exercises. Instead, we focus on understanding the emotions behind the behaviour and helping the dog develop calmer, healthier responses over time.
Issues such as separation anxiety, fear, or reactivity cannot be solved by teaching a single command. They require careful observation, a structured plan, and guidance for the owner to support the dog consistently at home.
Since we are working with emotional responses rather than simple obedience skills, progress can take time. Improvements may be subtle at first, but with patience and consistency they can lead to meaningful and lasting changes in a dog’s wellbeing.
Initial Behaviour Assessment
The first session includes a minimum 30-minute assessment. This time is essential to understand your dog’s behaviour, identify possible causes of the challenges, and provide tailored advice.
Every dog is unique, so the focus is on careful evaluation rather than quick fixes. During the session we will discuss practical training strategies, management techniques, and lifestyle adjustments that can support your dog’s progress.
While some behavioural issues may require multiple sessions, this first consultation provides a strong foundation and equips you with tools to start helping your dog immediately. Additional sessions can be arranged if further guidance is needed.

Please read the Terms and Conditions carefully if you wish to do the training with me.
I am able to accept veterinary referrals for behavior issues. If you have pet insurance, there is a possibility that your insurer may cover the costs of necessary behavior consultation and training. I advise you to contact your specific insurer to confirm their coverage policies. I claimed already with PetPlan, Many Pets & Napo. It is important to note that in all cases, your vet must provide the referral.
