1-2-1 Training

I (Essex Dog Trainer) can help restore faith in your dog.

I take the time to understand the exact help that you require, and help you shall receive! I have helped thousands of dog owners with behavioural issues and specialise in dealing with dangerous dogs (although I work with ALL kinds of dogs). I am often called out to help where other dog trainers have failed.

I’ll teach you all the skills you and your dog require to overcome any problem behaviours. It’s never too late to teach an old dog new tricks. My services are designed with you and your dog in mind to get the best results for you both.

One to one training is a great option for clients who want to learn alongside their dog or if you’d like to have your dog trained by me please visit my residential training section.

• Anxiety, fear or phobia
• Structure
• Dog Aggression
• Aggression directed at people
• Socialisation
• Overcoming a traumatic experience
• Territorial behaviour
• Recall
• Lead walking
• Barking
• Nipping
• Sit, down, stay

This list is just an example of common problems I have trained with clients.

Reactive dogs can cause you and the people around you a world a problems. Some of the most common problems people with reactive dog have are:

• Barking/lunging at cars
• Barking/getting distracted by other dogs
• Unnecessary barking when people enter your home
• Losing all focus on you when reacting to other things

While dogs are most commonly reactive to things like people, cars and other dogs, this does not address all the issues. If any of these sound like a problem too close to home, or you have a reactive dog of a different kind, please get in touch.

During our consultation I will explain to you in a clear and precise way the best way to get the results you seek. This will involve:

• Discussing with you ongoing issues and how they can be dealt with in the quickest possible way
• Understanding the reason for your dog acting the way they are and how to progress
• Achieving the perfect companion for you and your family

Our 1-2-1 consultation will last two hours.

• Initial training session – £150
• Ongoing training session – £95
• Telephone consultation – £70

I can arrange to visit you at your home, your local park or anywhere you’re experiencing problems with your puppy or dog.

If your problem is one you would rather not face in public I have a 1.5 acre secure training field in Roxwell, Chelmsford where we can replicate real life scenarios with dogs, people and distractions if needed.

The initial session would be two hours. This enables the trainer to get to know your pet or working dog and build an understanding of its behaviours.

Any follow up sessions would be up to 90 minutes long.

Thanks to the skills and experience offered by Essex Dog Trainer, results from private training sessions are often easy to see quickly. You will also be given insights and skills to enable you to continue to train your dog and manage its behaviour going forwards.

However, if behaviours are particularly ingrained, Essex Dog Trainer will provide an honest evaluation of how many private dog training sessions would be needed.

The Essex Dog Trainer team has a purposed created dog daycare and training facility in Chelmsford. It’s a 10-acre site, with a large secure field for working with dogs solo.

Are you looking for ‘someone to train my dog at my home’? That’s a service we can provide. One to one dog training at home can be particularly invaluable for pets experiencing issues such as separation anxiety, chewing inappropriate items, flight risk and noise sensitivity.

We can suggest other locations for individual dog training sessions too.

Whatever your goals and challenges with your pet or working dog, we can match them.

Individual dog training sessions can cover a wide range of issues (some are mentioned above) and it can be suitable and effective for all breeds and ages of dog.

Would the benefits of private dog training sessions be long lasting?

Whatever the issue, we can stop problem behaviours and give you insights to prevent a reoccurrence.

After all, this is always about forging a stronger and more enjoyable bond with your dog!

Sometimes, personalised dog training sessions on an individual basis are followed up by one of our dog socialisation sessions – such as The Big Dog Club or Doggy Day Care training for little pets.

The Essex Dog trainer gives you choices. Including whether you want a mixture of 1-2-1 and socialising training and the behavioural issues you want us to focus on.

You can also choose:

• Individual training session in Chelmsford, or in your home area
• Personalised training sessions on days and at times to suit you.
• The best outcomes for you, that protect your dog’s welfare, personality and happiness.

Ask us about dog training services for multi-dog households too, including putting the focus on your pets or working animals interacting better with each other.

Getting a new puppy is an exciting and lovely time, but it also brings a lot of challenges!

Especially when it comes to house-training puppies, teaching them not to chew things and developing obedience on their lead and recall, for example.

It’s important that you start the basic training with your puppy as young as possible, normally you’ll get a puppy from 8 weeks old.

Your puppy can then start their training outside after they receive their vaccinations OR training can begin from within your home from day 1 of collection!
