Private Dog Training in East Yorkshire
Personalised Support for You and Your Enthusiastic Dog
Not every dog thrives in a group setting.
Not every owner wants to share their struggles in front of others.
Private lessons give you space.
Space to ask questions.
Space to slow down.
Space to focus entirely on your dog.
Whether you’re dealing with lead pulling, recall struggles, over-excitement, gundog foundations, or you simply want tailored guidance — this is your time.
Who Private Lessons Are Perfect For
Private training may suit you if:
-
Your dog struggles to focus around other dogs
-
You feel overwhelmed in group environments
-
You want faster, tailored progress
-
You’re working through specific behavioural challenges
-
You’d love to build solid foundations before joining a class
-
You want gundog skills adapted to real-life
ā
This is about partnership — not pressure.
What We Can Work On
Every lesson is customised, but common focus areas include:
ā
šš¦ŗ Lead Walking & Manners Before the Gate
Starting calm at home before the equipment even goes on.
No more launching through doors or chewing the lead in frustration.
ā
šÆ Recall Foundations & Field-Proofing
Building reliable recall step-by-step — even around distractions.
ā
š¾ Gundog Skills for Pet Owners
Harnessing natural instincts in a positive, practical way.
ā
š§ Emotional Regulation & Over-Arousal
Helping enthusiastic dogs slow down and feel safe enough to learn.
ā
š¶ Puppy Foundations
Calm starts, confidence building, focus games, and life skills.
If your dog refuses food outside, feels overwhelmed, or tips into silly zoom mode after 30 minutes — we can work through that thoughtfully.
How Private Lessons Work
-
You get in touch and tell me what’s going on
-
We discuss your goals and the best starting point
-
We meet at my training space or your chosen location
-
You leave with clear steps, exercises, and follow-up support
ā
No overwhelm. No jargon. Just practical guidance you can actually use.
Why Work With Me?
With over 27 years of experience, APDT membership, and a background in gundog training, my approach is:
-
Force-free
-
Evidence-based
-
Calm and supportive
-
Designed for real-life enthusiastic dogs
ā
I don’t suppress behaviour.
I help you understand it.
Because when your dog feels heard and supported, progress becomes possible.
