Professional Dog Behaviour Counselling
Dog Behaviour Counselling in the South East of England
Our Dog Training and Behaviour Services
We are proud to be one of Kent's leading dog behavioural consulting and dog training services. Pets are an integral part of our lives, so if they are struggling with a behavioural problem, it can take a big toll. We have successfully been resolving behavioural problems for many years, and finding successful solutions for both dogs, and their owners. We can help with all sorts of issues from general pet training, to more advanced dog and cat behavioural issues such as:
- Recall training
- Heel walking
- Dog to human aggression
- Dog to dog aggression
- Chewing and destructive behaviour
- Separation anxiety
- Excessive barking or whining
- Over-excitability

A behaviour consultation is ideal for dogs experiencing issues including aggression to people, aggression to other dogs, separation anxiety, destructive behaviour, chewing, self mutilation or fearful behaviour. The initial consultation will last 1-2 hours. We will assess the dog's needs, put together a structured behaviour modification plan specific to your dog, or dogs, and help you put this into practice. After the initial consult you will be sent a full behaviour report outlining our recommendations. This will include one year of email and phone support. We can also forward a copy of the report to your vet if we are working under veterinary referral. There is then the option of one or more follow up consultations, in some more complex cases, this may be deemed necessary, however for some dogs, the initial consultation is enough.
We cover more general training in our 1:1 training sessions which tackle issues such as recall, loose lead walking, jumping up and trick training. Whether you need to start your training from scratch, or want to perfect your dog's existing skills, this is a great option. If you want regular support you can book our Ultimate Dog Training Package which offers comprehensive long term training support for owners looking to work on a number of issues.

Our services
Virtual consultations
All our consultation services are offered both in person, and virtually via Zoom. In many cases, online consultations are a great option, as they prevent any additional stress for the dog, whilst still allowing us to observe them in their own environment.
