Lead Walking and Control MasterClass

3 sessions | £225

If your walks feel like a workout, this is for you. This MasterClass teaches you how to control pace, direction and behaviour so your dog walks with you, not against you.

What we cover

  • Proper lead handling (the stuff YouTube never shows)
  • Calm starts, clean stops and controlled transitions
  • Neutrality around dogs, people, noise and movement
  • How to remove tension from the lead and the dog
  • Real-world practice: pavements, paths, distractions

Outcome

Confident walks, clean control, and a dog that follows your lead instead of fighting it. Lead pulling doesn’t fix itself. Better walks in days, not months.


Recall MasterClass

Short course | £399

A dog who comes back is a dog who gets more freedom. The Recall MasterClass builds engagement, marker precision and a reliable return under distraction, then proves it in the places you actually walk.


House Training and Calm Living MasterClass

1 deep-dive session, 3 hours | £249

This is the “get your house in order” session. Perfect for young dogs, new rescues, or families who need structure fast.

What we cover

  • Toilet training and routine planning
  • Crate use, boundaries and home layout
  • Preventing overstimulation and barking
  • Calmness protocols and decompression drills
  • How to stop chaos before it starts

Outcome

A calmer home, a predictable dog, and a routine that finally works for everyone.


New Dog / New Home Induction

3 hours | Essential first-step training

Just brought your dog home? Start right. This MasterClass sets the tone for calm living, clear boundaries and confident early handling.

What we cover

  • First-day structure and settling routine
  • Family rules and consistency (everyone aligned)
  • Safe introductions: people, pets, environment
  • Foundation handling: feeding, walking, rest
  • Preventing problem behaviours before they appear

Outcome

Your dog enters the home with clarity, calmness and confidence, and you already know exactly what to do next.


Pre-Purchase Dog Selection Consultation

2 sessions, 1.5 hours each

Choosing the wrong dog can cost years. Choosing the right one sets you up for success from day one. This is your matchmaking service, but with behavioural science behind it.

What we cover

  • Breed, temperament and lifestyle alignment
  • Drive levels, sensitivities and suitability
  • Breeder and rehoming centre assessment
  • Early red flags to avoid
  • Preparing your home, schedule and expectations

Outcome

You get the right dog for your life, not just the dog that looks cute on Instagram.


Harness and lead fitting

45 minutes | £50

The right equipment, fitted properly and used correctly. A short practical session covering harness and lead fit, how to hold and handle the lead, and what to buy and what to avoid.
