The Underdog Trainer

ence of learning theory, positive reinforcement and an understanding of the dog’s often imperfect past, we can help to foster a lifelong relationship based on a caring and compassionate understanding of why your dog behaves the way he does – and more importantly how to fix it in a way that won’t damage your relationship, or the trust that it can often be so hard to build. Our training session packages are designed to address obedience, training and communication topics in varying levels of depth, depending of the needs of you and your dog. Although there are some pre-planned basic aspects of each programme they will be tailored to suit you and your dog’s needs to make the best use of our time together. Your dog already knows sit and paw? No problem, we could spend more time on mind games. Your dog walks calmly glued to your side? No worries, we can do extra work on stopping unwanted jumping. Your dog is taking time to come out of their shell? Not an issue, we can work on confidence and trust building games and exercises at their own pace! We also offer one off sessions in which we can discuss specific training or communication problems in more detail, or to give you a taster as to what we can achieve together. Every training package will be bespoke to you and your dog and take place in the comfort of your own home (or garden!), helping you and your dog to practice your behaviour in the place where it matters most!
