PRIVATE SESSIONS
Not every dog needs competition-level obedience, but every dog should be enjoyable to live with.
Best Behaviour focuses on the practical skills that make day-to-day life easier and more enjoyable for both you and your dog. Whether your goal is a calmer walk, better manners around guests, improved focus in distracting environments, or simply a dog that listens when asked, this service is designed to build reliable behaviours that fit your lifestyle.
Sessions are tailored to your individual goals and can cover:
Loose lead walking
Recall foundations
Calm greetings and guest manners
Settling at cafés, parks, and public spaces
Jumping, barking, and impulse control
Building engagement and focus
Confidence in new environments
Everyday obedience and household manners
Trainer-Led Sessions Available
For suitable dogs, Best Behaviour sessions can be completed as trainer-led sessions. This allows your dog to work one-on-one with their trainer while you focus on work, family, or other commitments.
Trainer-led sessions are ideal for building training momentum, practising new skills, or providing additional support between owner-attended lessons. Following the session, owners will receive a summary of progress, recommendations, and any homework required to maintain results at home.
Available following an initial consultation and assessment. Additional fees may apply.
