Private Dog Training

One on One Dog Training Lesson

We will help you train your dog

“Westside Paws” are “Force-free” “Reward based” trainers.

We build, trust, love and respect between you and your dog as scientific evidence shows up-to-date training methods are NOT based around fear. We offer a professional dog training service - “helping you help your dog”.

When you meet with your “Westside Paws” trainer, Jazz, your session is personalised and tailored to you and your dog’s needs. The more information you provide in the online questionnaire form, the better.

Some examples of popular dog training requests:

  • setting puppy up at home

  • jumping up

  • barking

  • pulling on the lead

  • digging

  • lunging or reactivity

  • counter-surfing

  • noise phobias

  • bringing baby home

  • basic obedience etc.…..

If you have been thinking about group classes without the weekly commitment, there is also the option of our “Casual Classes” for dogs WITHOUT reactivity. They are not held weekly so take a look and see if this is something that you are interested in with your dog.

Every dog is different.

That is why our “one on one” sessions are to work with you - then you with “your” dog.

There is no quick fix for behaviour.

Retraining a dog takes time, patience, perseverance, consistency, clear handling skills, understanding and of course love - lots of love.

We are here to help you help your dog. Our style of training is gentle, calm and most of all teaching ‘you to understand your dog better’.
