Since 2024 it has become clear many people are feeling the pressure. Between job losses and the rising cost of living, the financial and emotional toll is heavy right now.
Dogs are an amazing source of comfort during these tough times. Sharing your life with a dog can ease loneliness, provide security and get you outside into nature - all of which are amazing for mental health. I truly understand how much comfort a dog can bring when you are feeling anxious or frustrated.
However, I also know how incredibly stressful it can be when your dog has behavioural issues. Over the last year. so many people have mentioned that they would like to work with me but simply cannot afford it. It breaks my heart to think that someone might feel forced to give up on their dog just because of cost.
Dogs are incredibly adaptable. They can change remarkably quickly when we change how we interact with them.
Because people need support right now, I want to help as many families as possible. I have decided to lower my prices to make my coaching more accessible:
* Previous price: £400
* New Reduced Price: £312.50
* Current Cost of Living Discount (20%): £250
A typical consultation last between 2 to 3 hours (sometimes more). If you can be consistent with the training, we can fix the vast majority of issues in this single session. Lets work together to bring peace back to your home.
Follow up sessions: £100 per hour if necessary

Something Different. Flip the script on traditional dog training:
Did you know that most canine behaviour issues stem from human behaviour? When we interact with dogs in ways they don't understand, it can lead to anxiety, excitement and/or frustration. Simply changing the way you act can be an eye-opener and game changer.
If you want to build a better relationship with your pet, I offer 1-to-1 sessions specifically focused on the human-dog interaction (no dogs participating). You will learn how to get the absolute best out of your dog by understanding the fascinating similarities and differences between our two species.
This option is ideal for first time dog owners or pet owners who haven't found success with previous trainers or behaviourists. It is also a perfect fit for aspiring professionals looking to enter the animal behaviour field. (free copy of my first book LIFE FEAR DOGS to help you understand the psychology.

These packages are aimed at owners who have just purchased a new puppy (often a very expensive purchase) or have just rescued a dog from a centre. The benefits of starting training immediately whether you have chosen a puppy or a rescue dog are stark. Immediate training can dramatically reduce the need for costly intervention later on.
Cynophobic - Overcome Your Fear of Dogs:
Do you have a deep fear of dogs? If you are living with Cynophobia, I completely understand what you are going through. For 20 years I felt that exact same paralysing fear. Every solution I tried to overcome it failed miserably and my fear only grew more intense each year.
Then everything changed. I dedicated myself to studying human psychology, the science of fear and canine behaviour. After years of intense research and study, including many years of hands on experience at rescue centres, I cracked the code. Today, I successfully rehabilitate aggressive and fearful dogs that some seasoned professionals and certified trainers refuse to handle. You don't have to live in fear anymore - let me help you find the breakthough you've been looking for.
£120 first one hour session (free copy of my first book to help you understand what fear is and what is happening inside your body)
£100 per session after that.
I can't obviously give a time scale here as everyone is different.
