Behavioural Consultations

If your dog has behavioural, psychological, or emotional issues that are worrying you, then it is likely that a behavioural consultation is needed. A qualified behaviourist can help you with challenges that go beyond teaching obedience and life skills.

Separation Anxiety Assistance

Focused strategies to ease your dog’s distress and restore calm when alone.

Fear and Phobia Management

Personalised plans to help your dog overcome fears for a confident life.

Behavioural Modification Program

Customised approaches ensuring lasting positive changes in your dog’s behaviour.

Our Approach

Behavioural change takes time, patience, and consistency, but every step forward will strengthen the bond between you and your dog – and ultimately lead to a calmer, happier life for both of you. Your behavioural journey with your dog will look a little like this:

1

Pre-Consultation Step

Many dogs struggle because they are in pain, but are too stoical to let us know. A vet check is always required before your consultation. A behaviourist can not recommend or prescribe medication, so if your dog will benefit from the support of medication, collaborating with your vet is essential. Denise will also provide you with a form to complete, and possibly some questionnaires.

2

Consultation

The consultation is a 2-3 hour in-person appointment at your home. In the session we take a deeper dive into your dog’s history, make body-language observations, and offer immediate management advice and support to get you started. You will be taught any cues (commands) required. Following the consultation a full behaviour modification plan will be provided to you and your vet.

3

Ongoing Progress & Support

Together we monitor improvements, and together we will adjust techniques to ensure progress is being made. Denise will continue to collaborate with your vet where needed, and provide follow-up support sessions via Zoom/Teams (30 mins per week).

Prices

The prices quoted cover provision and review of full history forms/questionnaires, one on-site session (allow 2-3 hours), preparation of the behaviour modification plan, collaboration with your vet where needed, and support as needed via email/WhatsApp during working hours for either 1 month or 3 months.

1-month package: £230

3-month package: £320

Follow-up sessions are £55 per hour, on-site depending on location.

To make a booking, you can:

If you are not sure if you need a training session or a behavioural consultation book a 1-hour online session for detailed advice. If, together, we decide a full behavioural package is needed, the fee of the online session (£55) will be deducted from the cost of your chosen package .
