What We Do

We focus on building strong connections between dogs and their owners through clear training, guidance, and real-life skills

Day Care Schooling

Day schooling provides short-term, intensive support for you and your dog when certain skills or behaviours are proving tricky at home. Your dog spends the day with me working on foundation behaviours, calmness, focus, and public access readiness, while you receive guidance and coaching to continue progress at home. This is a supportive, hands-on way to help your team succeed without removing the handler’s role.

Residential Stays

Residential stays offer short-term, intensive training and support for dogs and handlers who need extra help building foundation skills. Your dog stays in a calm, structured environment, working on behaviours like calmness, focus, and public access foundations, while you receive guidance and handover sessions to continue training at home. These stays are designed to support, not replace, your role, ensuring your team progresses safely and confidently.
