Dog walking nicely on a lead in Buckinghamshire

Wish that you could walk your dog on the lead without having to go at double your normal pace?  Sick of having to head straight to a field, in order to avoid the inevitable lead-pulling battle that happens if you have to walk your dog down the street? 

Don’t worry - I can help. If you dream of having your dog trot along beautifully by your side, in sync and attentive, this is for you!

‘Practicing the techniques taught by Sam in the real world on a dog walk, with Sam coaching over my shoulder giving me oodles of confidence.

£475

An initial 1.5 hour consultation in the comfort of your own home
We will create a plan tailored to you and the training challenges you are experiencing with your dog. We understand that every dog, lifestyle and environment is different, we don’t use a one size fits all consultation. We listen to you and work on what is important to you and your situation.

A written training plan including videos
This is a handy reminder of what to do and can also be shared with any other members of the family who might not be able to make it to the sessions.

Three face to face 45 minute coaching sessions
You and your dog can learn and practise the skills you need with in-person, real-time expert coaching. All four sessions will take place within a 6-8 week period. The location may vary depending on your training goals.

An end to aching shoulders!
No more inconsistency and frustration. You'll come away with a clear set of simple strategies to improve your lead walking, which work for both you and your dog.

Six weeks of email back-up
You will be supported with any questions or struggles throughout the process.

A deeper understanding of how you can help your dog to get it right
We want training to feel like fun, rather than a battle!

Sam Allnutt, Dog Trainer in Buckinghamshire and Hertfordshire

Why choose to work with Sam?

By choosing to work with an ABTC-Registered Dog Training Instructor with 15+ years’ experience, you can rest assured that you and your dog will be in safe hands. 

I only use kind, ethical, fun and science-based methods. Your dog’s welfare is a priority and I believe that there’s no place for pain, intimidation or punishment in dog training.

Working with me on a 1:1 basis means that I can tailor my training approach to best suit you and your dog. I also offer a period of email back-up so that you feel fully supported.

This service is perfect for you if:

You envy other dog owners whose dogs trot happily alongside them on a loose lead, in sync and attentive.  

You avoid (or dread) walking your canine companion because you know that they’ll pull on the lead.

You’d like to work with someone experienced and accredited, who uses kind, ethical methods.

You can’t bear to hear the sound of your dog coughing or choking because they’re pulling so much.
