How it works.
-
Use the form below to apply for the program. We'll review it to make sure the program is right for you and will contact you to discuss next steps!
-
Once we've made sure we're a good fit for each other, we'll organise an onboarding call. This call usually lasts around 90 minutes and is used to do a deep dive into your dog's behaviour.
We'll come out of this call with an overall training plan as well as initial goals to get started with.
-
Following the call, we'll set up a whatsapp group with you, me and anyone else you'd like to be involved with the training.
We'll use this to track your progress, review training videos and walk you through training step by step.
-
Each month we'll jump on a call to discuss your progress and set our goals for the next month.
FAQs
Who is this program designed for?
This program is most beneficial for people who have an ongoing training need such as an ongoing behavioural problem (reactivity, aggression etc) or want support through the puppy or adolescent stages of training.
We welcome clients from all backgrounds and are committed to providing an inclusive environment where everyone, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, or any other characteristic, is respected, supported, and empowered to achieve their goals.
How can you see my training to make sure I’m doing it right?
Throughout your training, I advise that you record videos of yourself so we can offer feedback on your training. However, I don’t need to see you doing it wrong, to teach you the right way to train. I have enough experience to know what mistakes are causing what behaviours and can advise accordingly.
How can you help us without seeing the problem behaviour?
As a behavioural expert, I don’t need to see the unwanted behaviour to advise how to address it. Even if we were to do in person training, our first step is prevention, so we never want to purposefully put a dog in an uncomfortable situation for the purpose of assessment. On our onboarding call, we’ll discuss the behaviour in detail and if you have any old videos you want to share we can review those.
Do you offer guarantees?
My expertise is teaching you as the handler to work with your dog. While I can teach you everything you need to know to continue training, dogs are animals and learn at different speeds, so offering a guarantee would be unethical. You are also a huge variable in training and the amount of work you put in throughout the coaching will directly impact the progress you’re able to make.
What if we’re not seeing progress?
There are lot’s of reasons why a dog may struggle with training. We work together closely throughout the training plan and if we’re not seeing results, we’ll work together to adjust the training plan as needed. I also work closely with veterinary teams and clinical behaviourists, so if we suspect an underlying issue that is preventing training from progressing, we’ll loop in the appropriate team to help at no extra costs to you.
Can I do less than 3 months?
We set 3 months as a minimum because it gives us time to actually monitor the progression of your training. Even for simplest of issues, it takes at least a month’s worth of data to assess our progress, another month to make sure you can continue to see improvements and the third month to troubleshoot and proof your training plan. We want to make sure you get the best results possible, so 3 months ensures we can do what’s best for you and your dog!

Here’s what my clients are saying.
-
“I would highly recommend Amelia for anyone who’s getting a young pup as I now look forward to many years of owning a well behaved excited pup!”
-
“Amelia has been an absolute dream to work with! She is incredibly knowledgeable, experienced and highly intuitive with dogs and their behaviours. Her techniques are logical and easy to follow, and her flexibility in approach (both online classes and in person) has worked really well for us - we would recommend Amelia to all puppy and dog owners looking for some friendly support with their dogs.”
-
"Amelia is brilliant at understanding the issues I’ve been having with my pup and suggesting practical solutions which work. We’ve been working together via video as she’s some distance from me, and it’s been great."
About Me.
If you’ve ever done a simple google search for dog training advice, you’ve probably been left feeling overwhelmed, confused and like you know even less than you did before. Don’t worry you’re not alone!
In 2017, after years of dreaming about it, I made the life changing decision to get a dog. I was obsessively researching dog training and found myself trawling the internet for "how to train a puppy". To my surprise this left me feeling confused and overwhelmed. Every page I visited said something different and I didn’t know who to listen to!
Knowing I wanted to do what was best for my new puppy, I decided I would learn as much as possible about dog behaviour and after reading every book I could find, I discovered the power of positive training. After putting into practice and seeing the success I'd had with my own dog, I wanted to find a way to help others to do the same, so after 7 years in a successful career, I quit my job to pursue my dream of becoming a dog trainer.
Since then I have dedicated my life to making dog training easy and accessible for pet parents. I hold multiple certifications in Dog Training and Behaviour including a qualification with the Victoria Stilwell Academy & IMDT as well as memberships with the Ian Dunbar Academy and IAABC. I believe that education is a lifelong process and continue to expand my knowledge and skillset at every chance I get.
