Dog Behaviour Consultations
A professional and positive approach to supporting you and your dog
My services currently consist of the 'behaviour consultation package', along with additional follow-up sessions which can be booked afterwards if you require additional support. My services are structured to provide you with the most professional and effective support, to help manage and improve your dog's behaviour concerns.
I offer a non-judgemental and friendly approach. It's most important to me that my clients feel heard, supported and involved throughout the process.
The Behaviour Consultation Package
This consists of a behaviour consultation lasting up to 2.5 hours at your home or remotely (e.g. over 'zoom'). During the consultation, I ask lots of questions about your dog's behaviour and background, followed by a discussion about what I think is causing the behaviour problem/s and how I think you need to manage them. If we have time, we may practise relevant training with your dog.
This is accompanied by a written report emailed and posted to you around 1-2 weeks later detailing your dog's tailored behaviour modification plan, along with any other relevant handouts or training protocols. Remote support in the form of emails, messages or phone calls are available up to 3 months after the behaviour consultation appointment.
An inclusive 1-hour follow-up appointment is included in the package, and will be held either at your home, out in a park, field, or remotely. This is a great chance to practise training and for me to help you with your progress with the behaviour modification plan.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Josh & Buster
Very friendly and has a clear passion for dogs. Meg gave amazing advice and training, and it was good to know what i was doing wrong without feeling judged. It has really helped with my daily walks with Buster
Jacqui & Belle
Meg provided a patient and knowledgeable approach. Belle's recall has improved dramatically. We have taken her to a secure field, as recommended, and after a few attempts with the cheese she now runs back instantly.
Hillary and Eric
Meg bought with her a variety of activities and treats until we hit upon one that caught Eric’s interest. Clearly we were not doing things right at all, but Meg never said or made us feel at fault and was kind and encouraging throughout.
