dog training that works - the benefits of choosing chewing with river
Updated: Oct 5
If you’re dealing with pulling on the lead, barking, reactivity, poor recall, overexcitement, fear-based behaviour, or a dog that simply can't settle, you are not alone. And you’re not failing. You just need a plan that makes sense!
Your dog's behaviour might mean daily stress in your home, dreading walks, feeling anxious when visitors arrive, or avoiding places you used to enjoy. It can even create tension between you and your partner, leaving you feeling frustrated, embarrassed, or worried about safety.
And it’s heartbreaking, because you didn’t get a dog to feel like this. And your dog won't be happy and healthy living like this either.
That’s where I come in. I offer professional dog training that is structured, supportive, and tailored to your dog’s needs, creating lifelong results for both ends of the lead. All sessions are one-to-one, delivered in your home and out and about in your local area.
With 5-star reviews across Facebook and Google Business, 5+ years of hands-on experience and over 1,000 dogs transformed, I’ve worked with everything from bouncy puppies to challenging adolescents, reactive dogs, anxious rescues, and overwhelmed owners who just needed someone to guide them through it.
Because the truth is: dogs don’t grow out of unwanted behaviours, they grow into them!
Benefits of working with me:
Included in your training package, you will receive:
✔ Comprehensive Behaviour & Lifestyle Assessment (1-hour)
A detailed deep-dive into your dog’s behaviour, lifestyle, routine, and triggers so we can identify what’s really going on and create a clear and effective plan forward. This is where we will get started in building your dog's toolkit, and building your confidence and skills.
✔ 3 x Private Coaching Sessions (1-hour each)
Dedicated one-to-one training sessions tailored entirely to you and your dog, giving you structured guidance, practical coaching, and measurable progress. Delivered at your home or mutually agreed location.
✔ Custom Training & Behaviour Rehabilitation Programme
A bespoke training plan built around your dog’s needs, your goals, and your lifestyle with clear steps so you always know exactly what to work on.
✔ Ongoing WhatsApp Support & Coaching
Direct support between sessions so you can ask questions, get reassurance, and make quick adjustments without losing momentum. Think about it as a "Trainer in your Pocket".
✔ Step-by-step Session Notes
Clear written guidance after each session, breaking exercises down step-by-step so you can confidently practise and stay consistent at home.
✔ Nutrition, Wellbeing, and Pain Aware Trainer
Support from a trainer who understands the impact of nutrition, health, and pain on behaviour. Ensuring your dog is approached holistically to create the happiest and healthiest version of themselves.
✔ Access to my Trusted Professional Network
If your dog needs extra support, you’ll benefit from recommendations to my established network of trusted canine professionals, including vets, physiotherapists, hydrotherapists, dog walkers, daycares, and more.
