This is ideally held at your home and usually takes around an hour and a half. This gives me the opportunity to get to know you and your dog, observe your dog's behaviour, and discuss your training goals. This then shapes your dog's customised training plan.

Chris’s puppy training worked wonders! His obedience sessions also drastically improved our dog’s behavior. Highly recommend his methods!
Explored various trainers, Chris’s obedience and behavior mod programs truly stand out. Clear, effective methods that really made a difference. Highly recommend.
Had a couple of private sessions with Chris; definite improvements. Conveniently tailored advice and attention to details. Good for those looking for specific solutions.
"We are absolutely delighted"
"We have taken on a rescue Doberman, almost two years old, who has had very little socialisation and we are absolutely delighted how far he has progressed in just two sessions with Chris.
Chris really knows how dogs think and explains the psychology behind the dog’s behaviour. He has extensive knowledge, a calm nature and uses reward based training.
My dog enjoys the training and I am finding greater confidence through his teaching."

"She just loves him"
"We have had a great experience using Chris. I have a border collie who had issues with food guarding and also could tend to be unfriendly to other dogs, but Chris handles her so well and her behaviour is transformed!
She just loves him, and he has always been a pleasure to deal with.
I have actually learned a lot myself! If you need help training your dog I would highly recommend Chris."
- Charity H.
"He is natural with animals"
"I can’t recommend Chris enough!
He has been amazing with our dog Snowy, she feels really happy around him and very comfortable. You can tell how much he loves animals.
His family has an incredible setup. They live on a beautiful farm, which gives the dogs so much space to run and play.
We feel Snowy is in the best hands with Chris. He is natural with animals - just perfect for the dog world!!"

Training sessions typically last between 45-60 minutes, depending on the dog's focus and the session's goals.
Do you guarantee results from your training programs?
While I provide tools and techniques, results can vary based on factors like the dog's background and the consistency of reinforcement at home.

Yes, I offer training programs aimed at reducing and managing aggression to improve socialisation skills.
