Additional Services I offer:
If you have purchased one of my training or behaviour packages and you have chosen to add this on top the price is discounted by £1
Door knocking
Need to practice door responses but people aren't knocking 2 x a day?
Are all knocks on your door unexpected or needing a quick answer?
I can arrange for your door to be knocked at agreed times, as many times as you need each day so you can get your dog used to the noise, the behaviours you want and with no rush for you to answer.
This works perfectly with general behaviour training packages but if you are doing the training yourself and only want the door to make a noise, that's ok too.

Visitor
Need to practice your dogs behaviours when visitors come in to your home?
Does your dog jump up at everyone?
Does your dog refuse to be calm?
I can arrange for a trusted visitor to come to your home as often as you need so that you can practice the behaviours you want.
The visitor will stay for up to 10 minutes and then leave again so the behaviours are practiced without it being too much in one go.

Extra dog and handler
Not sure about using the unknown dogs at the park?
Other owners letting their dog come too close while your train?
Does your dog scare other dogs away?
I can arrange for a professional and their dog to meet you at your training spot and stay the correct distance away to keep your dog under threshold. They will be well briefed, listen to instructions asking them to move closer or further away and help us to help your dog.

Extra Crumbs!!
If you live more than 3 miles away from Wigan Town Centre: Do not panic! I am happy to travel and arrange for people and dogs to travel to where you are. Let me know your post code and times of day you require and I will give you a specific quote based on accurate distance, time and handler joining us.
It is my goal to equip you, the owner, to recognise your dogs feelings and way of communicating. I don't do the training for you, I stand by you and translate what your dog is saying. Think of me as a mediator; guiding you through the first steps and then standing back to watch you and your dog evolve into a winning team. Although I do insist on being present during the first few interactions your dog has with Max or with another dog handler I want you to be able to understand what's going on and feel empowered quickly so that you feel able to do the desensitisation work without paying my rate.
