4-Week Structured Puppy Coaching

Bringing home a puppy is exciting but it can be overwhelming when you feel like there is so much to teach... all at once. 


Our 1:1 Puppy Training Programme is a structured four-week coaching plan designed to give you clarity, confidence and a strong foundation from the very beginning.


We follow a clear programme, but sessions are flexible and responsive. That means we can:

  • Progress faster where your puppy excels
  • Slow down and build confidence where needed
  • Provide detailed handling coaching tailored to you


Over the programme, we focus on developing:

  • Loose lead walking foundations
  • Fun recall activties
  • Structured play
  • Building your pup's confidence
  • Practical skills for life


The goal is for you to feel confident in your understanding of how to use reward-based methods to develop skills with your puppy and set yourselves up for life. 

Suitable for Puppies — and Beyond

 While designed for young puppies, this 1:1 programme can also be booked for:


• Newly adopted dogs


• Older puppies who missed early training


• Adolescent dogs needing foundation work


• Adult dogs who would benefit from structured basics


Strong foundations are valuable at any age.

The Programme Outline

Session One - Foundations & Confidence

We will work on establishing early foundation skills alongside confidence-building exercises to support emotional development. 

Session Two - Focus, Lead Walking & Recall

 We develop early loose lead walking skills for you and your puppy and introduce fun recall games that you can play anywhere.

Session Three - Progression & Real-Life Skills

We build on the previous session, strengthening recall, improving lead walking fluency and introducing different ways to reward your puppy.

Session Four - Skill Integration & Progression

 In our final session we will consolidate skills and troubleshoot challenges to ensure you feel confident to progress with your puppy as they grow.
