The Pre-Puppy Consultation — Ready for Arrival
The best puppy training starts before your puppy comes home.
Pre-Puppy Consultation - 1 × 45 minute session
Bringing a new puppy into your family is exciting, but knowing how to prepare can feel overwhelming.
Where should your puppy sleep? How do you introduce a crate? What should the first few nights look like? And how do you help your children understand their new family member?
As an IMDT Accredited & Approved Dog Trainer specialising in Doodles and family puppies, I’ll help you prepare for your puppy’s arrival with practical, personalised advice tailored to your home and lifestyle.
During our 45-minute consultation, we’ll cover:
Preparing your home and creating a safe, puppy-friendly environment.
Crate setup and sleeping arrangements.
Essential equipment and what you actually need.
Toilet training and establishing realistic routines.
Managing puppy biting, jumping and other common behaviours.
Introducing your puppy to children and family members.
Preparing for your puppy’s first days and nights.
Understanding early socialisation and confidence building.

Puppy Training Package - 5 × 60 minute sessions
Bringing a Doodle puppy into your family should be an exciting experience. But between the biting, jumping, sleepless nights and conflicting advice, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
That’s where I come in.
As an IMDT Accredited & Approved Dog Trainer specialising in Doodle puppies and family life, I provide personalised, one-to-one training designed around your puppy’s individual needs and your family’s lifestyle.
Rather than following a generic training programme, we’ll focus on the skills, routines and behaviours that matter most to you.

Behavioural Training Package
Behavioural Training & Support Package
Understanding the behaviour. Building confidence. Making progress together.
When your dog is struggling with fear, reactivity or other challenging behaviours, everyday situations can quickly become stressful for everyone involved.
Walks may become difficult. Visitors might feel overwhelming. Your dog may struggle to settle, cope with unfamiliar situations or feel comfortable around other dogs and people.
These behaviours are not simply about obedience. Understanding what your dog is experiencing, identifying potential triggers and creating a suitable training environment are essential parts of helping them make progress.
As an IMDT Accredited & Approved Dog Trainer, I use kind, reward-based methods to help families better understand their dogs and develop practical strategies tailored to their individual needs.
My Behavioural Training & Support Package provides a structured approach for families who need more focused guidance than a standard training session.
Who Is This Package For?
This programme may be suitable for dogs experiencing:
Reactivity towards other dogs, people or environmental triggers.
Fear or uncertainty in everyday situations.
Difficulty settling or coping with changes in their environment.
Barking, lunging or overexcitement on walks.
Behavioural challenges that require a more individualised training approach.
For cases involving significant aggression, severe separation-related distress or complex anxiety, I may recommend veterinary assessment or referral to an appropriately qualified clinical animal behaviourist before proceeding.
What’s Included?
Initial Behavioural Assessment
1 × 60-minute video consultation
We’ll explore your dog’s behavioural history, routines, environment and the situations in which difficulties arise.
This allows me to gather important information and identify suitable management strategies before beginning practical training.
Four Private Training Sessions
4 × 60-minute in-home appointments
We’ll work together on practical, reward-based exercises tailored to your dog’s needs.
Depending on the behaviour involved, this may include:
Identifying and managing triggers.
Building confidence in everyday environments.
Gradual desensitisation and counterconditioning.
Teaching alternative behaviours.
Helping you recognise your dog’s body language and stress signals.
Developing realistic strategies for managing challenging situations.
Training will progress at a pace appropriate for your individual dog.
Personalised Behavioural Training Plan
Following your initial assessment, you’ll receive a written plan outlining your dog’s training priorities, recommended management strategies and exercises.
We’ll review and adapt the approach throughout your programme as needed.
Follow-Up Guidance
Each appointment includes practical recommendations and clear guidance on what to practise before our next session.
48-Hour Post-Session Support
You’ll receive WhatsApp support for two working days following each appointment, allowing you to ask questions and clarify exercises we’ve covered.
Additional support is available as an optional extra.
Your Investment: £695
Your programme includes:
One 60-minute online behavioural assessment.
Four 60-minute private training appointments.
An initial personalised behavioural training plan.
Practical training guidance throughout your programme.
Two working days of follow-up WhatsApp support after each appointment.
Additional written reports, extended WhatsApp support and further training sessions can be arranged separately.
Weekend appointments and travel outside my local area may incur additional charges, confirmed before booking.
All programmes are subject to an initial suitability assessment. Behavioural progress varies between individual dogs, and no specific outcome or timeframe can be guaranteed.

VIP Puppy Concierge
Exceptional puppy training. Seamlessly integrated into your family life.
A bespoke, private puppy training experience for families who want a more personalised level of support.
Welcoming a puppy into your home is a wonderful experience, but between busy careers, family commitments and everyday life, finding the time to establish consistent training routines can be challenging.
My VIP Puppy Concierge service offers a more hands-on, individually tailored approach to puppy training, providing professional guidance and ongoing support throughout those important early months.
As an IMDT Accredited & Approved Dog Trainer specialising in Doodles and family puppies, I work closely with you to create a training programme that fits naturally around your home, lifestyle and puppy’s individual needs.
Whether you’re preparing for your puppy’s arrival, navigating the first few weeks or looking for more intensive training support, every programme is designed specifically for your family.
A More Personal Approach to Puppy Training
Unlike traditional puppy-training packages, VIP Puppy Concierge offers greater flexibility, more frequent training and a higher level of individual attention.
Depending on your requirements, your bespoke programme may include:
Breeder Selection & Puppy Matching

For families who haven’t yet selected their puppy, I offer personalised guidance to help you make an informed, responsible decision.
Pre-Puppy Preparation & Home Setup
Personalised guidance before your puppy arrives, including practical support with preparing your home, equipment, sleeping arrangements and early routines.
Regular In-Home Puppy Training
Private training sessions arranged around your family’s schedule, with the option for more frequent appointments during the early stages.
Hands-On Puppy Training
Where appropriate, I can work directly with your puppy to introduce foundational skills and positive training habits, alongside showing your family how to maintain and build on that progress.
Personalised Training & Development Plan
A tailored training programme that evolves with your puppy, focusing on the behaviours, routines and skills most relevant to your household.
Family & Household Guidance
Practical support for parents, children and other household members to help everyone understand your puppy’s behaviour and follow a consistent approach.
Priority Training Support
Agreed access to professional advice between appointments, with clear communication arrangements tailored to your programme.
Ongoing Progress Reviews
Regular reviews of your puppy’s development, with adjustments to training priorities and recommendations as your puppy grows.
Designed Around Your Lifestyle
Whether you have a demanding professional schedule, young children, multiple household members or simply want the reassurance of having a dedicated trainer supporting your puppy’s development, VIP Puppy Concierge provides a more flexible and personalised experience.
My approach is always kind, practical and grounded in positive reinforcement, with your puppy’s welfare and individual needs at the centre of every decision.
A Limited Number of Private Clients
To ensure each family receives the attention and continuity this service requires, I accept a limited number of VIP Puppy Concierge clients at any one time.
Investment: Bespoke — Pricing Available on Request
Every programme is individually quoted based on your puppy’s needs, the frequency of training, location and level of ongoing support required.
Following an initial discussion, I’ll recommend a suitable programme and provide a clear proposal outlining the services, schedule and investment.
Limited availability to ensure a highly personalised service.
