Schedule a phone consultation to see how we may be able to help you with training and behavioural needs. This is a free non obligation chat lasting 15-30 minutes to discuss your needs and what we offer. You can book directly online or pop us an email at georgie@thaxtedpetco.com
Do you live further afield or would rather train from the comfort of your own home? Then online training could be perfect for you! Our online sessions take place via Whatsapp video and are 45 minutes long. These sessions allow you to talk through the particular behavioural and training issues you might be facing and talk through a behavioural modification plan for this. The initial training session comes with a training plan and resourses for you to take away.
Training session for new customers which can take place with us here in Thaxted, in your home or outside depending on the specific issue (PLEASE NOTE: we cover a 5 mile radius of Thaxted or additional travelling costs may apply). Sessions will last approximately 60 minutes and include access to resources and a full report and training plan afterwards.
Our behaviour consultations are designed to deal with issues that are more complex than standard training. These can include problems such as: resource guarding, separation anxiety, multi dog household relationships and reactivity to name a few. Our initial consultation involves a 90 minute session to assess your dog in person and determine the correct plan for them. After the session a personalised behaviour modification plan will be sent to you as well as ongoing support via Whatsapp. It is unlikely that a specific behavioural issue will resolve after one session alone, therefore, it is reccomended that follow up appointments are scheduled to help with progress.
