Behavioural Problems
Dreading walks? Does the thought of visitors make your heart sink? In need of a break from the stress of behavioural issues.
Imagine not having to worry about what is around the corner, not constantly having to have a ‘plan B’ and no longer always needing to be prepared.
I'm here to help
We have a fantastic selection of training programs for your gundog, whatever you need for your gundog or gundog puppy we have you covered.
Call me for a chat about your dog anytime, I am always happy to help you find the right program.
All of our core programs are also suitable for reactive (barking, lunging etc) &/or anxious dogs but not aggression (dogs that bite
people or dogs).
What can I help with?
As well as helping with your training issues such as getting your dog back when called, walking nicely etc I can also help with behavioural problems, a few examples are:
- Obsessive behaviours such as spinning, licking, shadow chasing
- Excessive Barking
- Resource guarding of objects, food etc
- Separation problems (issues being left alone)
- Dogs that eat everything they find on walks
- Counter surfing (stealing from your kitchen counters etc)
- Jumping at everyone and everything
- Problems being handled (for vets, groomers and at home)
- Dogs that have an inability to settle or stop
- Dogs that don’t always appreciate guests
- Dogs that cannot stop and never settle
- Dogs that cant listen when asked to do something
- Crate training problems
- Excessive puppy
biting
and so much more!

I have worked with many gundogs throughout the years, my experience includes dealing with issues such as ‘nuisance’ barking, light chasing, spinning, resource guarding, issues being left alone, jumping, mouthing, reactivity including barking and lunging at other people or dogs and more.

All training is kind, ethical, positive and reward based so you do not have to fear the methods used to help your dog, you will not be asked to do anything that you are not comfortable doing with your dog but I will help build trust so that you can feel more confident every day.

Client Success Story
In their own words……
“We have a very strong-willed puppy Labrador and had used other trainers before finding Nina, who is amazing!
For us, what sets Nina apart is the fact that she doesn’t just “teach” obedience. Nina ensures that you try and relate to and understand your dog’s mindset, which leads to not only better training outcomes but also helps cultivate a stronger bond with your dog, which as pet owners, is what we all strive for.
Can’t recommend Nina highly enough!”
