Professional Dog Behaviour Consulting

Dog Behaviour Consulting in the South East of England

Our Dog Training and Behaviour Services

We are proud to be one of Kent's leading dog behaviour 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 training dogs and resolving behavioural problems for many years, finding successful solutions for both dogs, and their owners. As both dog trainers and behaviourists, we can help with all sorts of issues from general dog training, to more advanced dog and cat behavioural issues such as:

Recall training
Heel training
Loose lead training
Dog to human aggression
Dog to dog aggression
Chewing and destructive behaviour
Separation anxiety
Excessive barking or whining
Over-excitability

However, if you are from further away, please do still get in touch as we would still be happy to assist you, it just may cost a bit more to account for travel time.

We offer a free 15 minute pre-consultation phone call in which we can take some details of your case, and give some initial advice. Just fill in our contact form to book.

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.

Virtual Consultations

As well as in person behaviour consultations, we are also able to support a client base throughout the whole of the UK via zoom. We have found this an extremely successful form of consulting as it allows us to observe the animal in their own environment without the unusual experience of a stranger being in the house.
