Private Coaching & Behavioural Consults
Behavioural Consult
Behavioural Consult
Behaviour challenges are rarely solved with a quick fix but with a clear management plan and the right support, we can make life easier.
We look at the whole picture: your dog’s genetics, history, breed traits, environment, and household dynamics, so the plan genuinely fits.
I understand how it feels to be embarrassed by a dog’s behaviour, or to realise life with your dog isn’t what you imagined.
My role is to support you as the owner, while also advocating for your dog’s needs. Sometimes it’s not what we expected, but by meeting everyone’s needs halfway, we can make day-to-day life calmer, safer, and more enjoyable for both of you.
Consults can take place at my training facility, in your home, or at another location whatever works best for you and your dog.
The first consult is $250 for 1.5–2 hours, with a personalised training plan provided within 2–3 days

In-Person Coaching
When you come for in-person coaching, it can be for many reasons you might have a specific issue to work on, a goal you want to achieve, or you want to keep up regular training but find it hard to stay committed on your own.
This is especially valuable for detection handlers who often train alone. Over time, it’s easy to miss the small details in your dog’s work. I can help by running blank, blind, and double-blind searches; adjusting concealments and odour sit time when needed; and using different locations to keep skills sharp and adaptable.
We can also focus on specific goal behaviours, put them under stimulus control, and finish them to a high standard.
In-person coaching is also an option for general training, young dog development, and building confidence in a range of environments. Whether you’re working toward sport, assistance, therapy, operational roles, or just want a capable, well-rounded dog. I work with you at your level, ensuring you have clear next steps and a solid understanding of the training's purpose so you can continue the work with purpose and confidence.

Online Coaching
Online coaching gives you access to support no matter where you are.
This can include video reviews of your training sessions, detailed feedback on what’s working and what to adjust, and discussing the best next steps for you and your dog.
It’s a flexible option for handlers who want ongoing guidance but can’t attend in person. Whether you’re working on detection, sport, young dog development, or general training, we can break down your progress, troubleshoot issues, and plan how to move forward.
You’ll finish each session with a clear direction and an understanding of why specific changes will help so you can keep building skills and confidence between sessions.
