Calm Dog Foundations — in a nutshell 🐾

These are the principles I return to time and time again with my own dogs — Bella (rehomed), Scarlet (puppy) — alongside foster dogs and client dogs.

They’re the foundations we live by every day at home so we can live in harmony with our own little pocket rocket: Scarlet, a high-energy working cocker spaniel.

The more I learn about dog behaviour, the more I come back to these basics. They are essential for helping dogs feel calmer, less reactive, and more able to relax and learn.

In fact, I’d go as far as to say that without these foundations in place, behaviour change is often short-lived.

During this 90-minute online session we’ll:
🐶 Bust some common training myths
🐶 Take a close look at your dog’s current lifestyle
🐶 Identify small, realistic changes that can make an immediate difference

You’ll also receive:
✔️ A handy recap sheet
✔️ Access to my Calm Life Skills behaviour change consultations

I’m currently offering these sessions for £45.

If you’d like to become your dog’s very own Calm Dog Coach, contact me directly to book.

A calmer, happier life with your dog really is possible.

Make it inevitable that your dog’s behaviour will change.

Train them little and often.

In fact I insist on it being little and often because:

It works.

Dogs learns better in short bursts.

You train better in short bursts.

That’s it.

The key is keeping it simple and consistent - daily short bursts, training the same thing until it becomes second nature.

Want to change your dog’s behaviour? Try this...

“Your dog becomes more of what they do every day.”

The more your dog gets to do something the more likely they are to keep repeating it.

Say your dog jumps up at visitors, barks at other dogs, ignores recall, pulls on the lead, counter surfs – the more they do it the more it will continue.

Is there a behaviour you would like your dog to change?

What would you like them to do instead?

Try these steps:

1) Temporarily stop putting your dog in the situations where they do it.

2) Teach them what you would like them to do instead (in an easy learning environment for them at first).

3) Gradually work towards going back into the situation with their new coping skills.

Any questions? Post them below for help ☺️.

A lightbulb💡moment from a recent Calm Dog Foundations 1:1.

My aim is to help you identify small changes that can be implemented straightaway to make a difference to your dog’s behaviour.

This step will stop the dog rehearsing the behaviour. It also provides an opportunity to teach them new skills so that they can learn to respond differently in future.
