A Professional, bespoke and effective service.
All Canine behavioural issues assessed utilising the Pamela Hindes Method. Click here to view the Method Page where more information is provided.
Behavioural issues are often complex and involve a thorough assessment of not only the behaviour displayed by our canine companions but also the human canine relationship in order to create an effective plan to improve relationships and deal with any disharmony occurring due to the behaviour(s) of a particular dog and owner/family.
A detailed questionnaire is issued prior to any meeting to ensure as much information as practicable is gathered prior to each bespoke home consultation. We are always happy to discuss any issue that you have with you and to explain what we anticipate we can do to help.

All of our behavioural assessments, behaviour modification plans and training are based on the ‘Pamela Hindes Method’©.
Training services
A well trained dog is a pleasure to own and a companion to be proud of.... do you have one?
“Recall – 0h yes we have a good recall most of the time unless she is distracted by something such as….” (translated to – ‘I have no recall when I really need it!’)
“I hate taking him for a walk, as I get dragged down the road……..I’ve tried all the usual techniques shown on the internet but he still does it…….”
“He behaves all right at training classes but then it all goes horribly wrong when we are out and about….”
She only follows commands when I have a treat in my hand……………
“He listens to me most of the time unless ………”
ANY OF THE ABOVE SOUND FAMILIAR – HELP IS AT HAND…..!
These are the most common training problems we come across, due to the lack of effective training of both owners and their dogs.
To train your dog well you need to be given sufficient knowledge to have a basic understanding of how a dogs mind works, how to motivate your dog to learn and to train effectively. Sadly, in many training classes, time is simply not allocated to these basic but essential principles. The Hindes Method addresses the fundamental issue of the dog and owner relationship as a basic building block of all training.
Training an owner to use a technique itself is easy enough as it is a mechanical process, but to simply do this overlooks the importance of the relationship between you and your dog which is fundamental.
You can teach someone a dance if you know the steps but how you teach it will be fundamental to the relationship you build with that person and how effectively they learn ...
Pamela Hindes offers one to one training packages to help you learn how to train your dog effectively and at the same time have some fun and improve your relationship! How many sessions will be required will depend on what training is needed but as a general rule of thumb generally three hourly sessions will be necessary to get you on the right road with an individual aspect of training. If we are training to a good level of competence a variety of behaviours then as a general rule a 6–8-week plan is more realistic. We do however find it best to discuss your individual requirements to assess a suitable bespoke package of sessions.
After all ‘One size does not fit all…..’
Pawsomely Perfect Puppy Packages
Our Pawsomely Perfect puppy packages are designed prepare you for the best possible puppy experience.
Whether you are a new puppy parent or about to be one, you will have spend a good amount of time choosing and money on purchasing your new puppy (and on a variety of equipment no doubt). However, undoubtedly the most overlooked but most important thing for a happy, contented dog and happy stress free family is to have a well trained and well behaved dog that has learnt to behave appropriately in a variety of social situations...... Your puppy will be learning about all sorts of things both from his/her environment and how you interact with them from the minute you take them through the front door, even when you are not actively training them, ideally this is when PUPPY SCHOOLING needs to start, not six months down the line.
