​

As an experienced canine professional at "Bark and Ride," each initial consultation is a comprehensive session aimed at understanding the dog's history, behaviour, and the owner's expectations.

I meticulously gather details about the dog's breed, age, health, previous training experiences, and the owner's lifestyle to create a personalised plan.

During these consultations, I conduct a thorough assessment of the dog's behaviour, temperament, and any specific concerns or goals the owner has regarding training or behavioural modifications. I observe the dog's reactions to stimuli, their response to commands, social interactions, and overall comfort level in various situations.

Following this assessment, I devise a tailored training or behaviour modification plan, or a walking schedule for your dog(s)

This plan includes specific exercises, training techniques, and management strategies customised to meet the dog's needs and the owner's objectives. I ensure that the plan aligns with the owner's lifestyle and capabilities while aiming for effective and achievable results.

Moreover, these consultations serve as educational opportunities, empowering the owner with insights into canine behaviour, training methodologies, and tips for creating a nurturing and positive environment for their dog.

At "Bark and Ride," these initial consultations play a pivotal role in establishing a solid foundation for a successful and harmonious relationship between the owner and their dog, setting the stage for ongoing training or care services tailored to their unique needs.
