At Dog Tired we do training differently. My aim is to train dogs in their natural environment (their home, the park or on a walk) where we can teach them to respond around distractions and deal with the everyday issues they'll come across. As a 2016 Scoot Headline Award Winner, Dog Tired can guarantee an excellent standard of training. I am a Master Trainer with the GoDT and an ADTB accredited instructor, in addition to holding various diplomas.
All types of training for both puppies and adult dogs. I also offer socialisation puppy parties/classes.

In the summer, we re-homed our second dog. We started looking for a dog trainer after he started snapping at our other dog. After calling around to a few dog trainers, getting prices and hearing what they have to offer, we chose Nickola. She was very reasonably priced for the service offered, but that wasn't why I chose her. After a chat on the phone, it was very obvious that her first priority was my dog's health. She could easily have taken our money and booked the training session, but she recommended a vet check first. Her care for my dogs was apparent then, but was made obvious when she came to our house for the training session. She went through a thorough history with us, advised what behaviours we should adjust, and showed us how to teach our dogs the behaviours we wanted them to have. It's been about a week and a half since that session, and we can already see dramatic improvement with our dogs! Could not be happier!
I--without a doubt--recommend her services. I only wish I found her sooner!

We are a dog home boarding agency and I am a qualified dog trainer with the Institute of Modern Dog Trainers offering 1-2-1 consultations to help you and your dog with a variety of training and behavioural issues. I understand there can be difficulties to overcome when owning a dog and that training is crucial in helping your dog fit into your home and your family. Using only positive reinforcement methods I can help with basic training such as pulling on the lead, recall, general obedience, puppy issues etc or with behavioural issues such as barking, reactivity to other dogs, anxiety and many more.

My very shy puppy has really come out of her shell in the 6 weeks of puppy foundation training - Steve really helped with that from day 1. This is an easy paced course that lets you learn how to make sure your puppy listens to you and responds to you (as long as you put the training time outside the class!). Well worth the journey and the car-sick dog!!

Paw Pact is about helping you understand your dog, giving you the guidance and support needed so that both you and your dog have a strong relationship built on trust, communication and a loving bond.
I get a real level of satisfaction from helping a family build on their relationship with their dog but more importantly for me i get to help the dog better communicate their struggles in a way the family can understand and manage effectively.
Although ive had dogs for years, i really got into training once i started a journey with an assistance dog who would change my life forever.
I will only advise and work within the safety of your dog, if i don't think something is right for your dog I'll tell you not just take your money and run. All my training options from the smallest value to the more expensive package comes with the same level of support, i am available for advice between sessions even if thats 6 months apart.
Yes however i have found that so much is missed online, we as trainers need to be able to see everything going on, not just with your dog but you and the environment around you too. I only do online if i have initially meet the family and dog. The actual struggle or training need also needs to be taken into account as not everything will work effectively online.
I always work within government guidance but be assured that the entire team takes regular tests to reduce any possible infections. The team are also fully vaccinated for your safety.
Why should I get a Dog Trainer?
Making sure your pup is trained properly really matters. Without the necessary groundwork, you’re risking your dog’s wellness and security, as well as the safety of any other dogs it comes into contact with. It’s also important your dog is trained so that it can integrate properly with you and your family. Keeping it out of trouble will save you a lot of hassle (and potentially costly repairs too).
Making sure your dog listens to commands is very important. Not only will handling it be less stressful, but it can stop dangerous conflict with other animals. Furthermore, if your dog doesn’t want to listen to you, situations such as dealing with traffic can potentially become fatal. On the upside, having a well-trained pup enables you and your pet to socialise properly with other dogs and their owners.
Having a dog that is obedient means that life around the home becomes plain sailing. With good manners, your dog will be able to tell the difference between right and wrong behaviour, while being able to foster good relationships with other members of your family. These connections can help to build a fruitful relationship with your pet as part of the family. Time well spent together will allow you to both grow together, sharing experiences and creating the type of memories that make having a pet so worth it.
How about becoming an authority figure yourself? Although your trainer will help your dog get up to scratch, they will also teach you a great deal about the fundamentals of dog training. This includes not only how to handle your own dog, but principals that you can use to understand and better interact with other dogs too. Being able to help out less-informed dog owners can be a wonderful gift to have, and something that you can take further if you enjoy it.
Having a well-trained dog also means that taking your pet to the veterinarian will be a lot easier than it would be otherwise. Considering the nature and volume of work that they have to do, being a vet is tough, let alone dealing with an uncooperative pet in their surgery. In some cases, dogs can become violent when approached by a vet – definitely something they don’t need. By having your dog properly trained, you can avoid injuries – for both your dog and your vet – as well as unnecessary embarrassment upon visits.
How do I pick a Dog Trainer?
When hiring someone to train your dog, there is plenty to think about. The needs of both you and your pet have to be considered and so taking some time to sit down and work out what is important to you is a must. Down below are a few of the questions you might ask when it comes to finding the right dog trainer –
Should I go for group or private training? Each comes with pros and cons – those with a brand new dog can expect their pet to socialise and start to develop relationships with other dogs.
Does my dog need generalised training or would training in a specific area suit it better? One example of this is if your dog has an issue with barking, or separation anxiety. In these cases, someone that can specialise in tackling these issues would be optimal.
Do I need long-term training or do I need a quick fix? Goals such as conditioning your dog for agility or developing a routine will need more time with a trainer.
You should also take care to see what type of strategies your trainer uses. There are a wide variety of techniques that can be applied in order to change your dog’s behaviour – but not all of these involve kindness and care. It’s good to talk to prospective trainers about the ways in which they choose to teach your dog, including methods of both discipline and praise. Techniques such as positive reinforcement are very beneficial for dogs and are particularly powerful, while being enjoyable for them.
While your dog is your priority, how you communicate with your trainer is important too. Your trainer’s should be able to translate their understanding into constructive advice. A good trainer can tell you both what is working in terms of training your dog, and what isn’t. This includes passing on insights of what to do to correct certain issues, while conveying these ideas in a constructive, friendly way. In order to do this, a trainer needs to not only be able to express themselves clearly, but also be diplomatic and observant.
How much does a Dog Trainer cost?
There are various ways in which you can choose to train your dog. Some owners opt for private lessons, while others will put their dog through group daycare.
Group sessions are valuable not only because they are more budget friendly, but also because they are better as a long-term option. This is because your pet will have time to get to grips with a wider variety of commands. However one-on-one training provides your dog with lessons that are specially tailored to their needs, helping them learn in the best way for them.
There are also the various levels of obedience training to take into account. As well as classes specifically for puppies, there are basic educational classes, adult training, agility and advanced tutoring. Which of these you go for can affect pricing, as well as how quickly your dog learns (depending on its needs and comprehension).
Can I hire a Dog Trainer online?
Yes! You might be surprised to hear that dog training can be done remotely, through online video platforms like Zoom. They can take the form of group sessions or one-to-one classes to tackle certain individual behavioural issues. Many customers prefer online dog training for all sorts of reasons, like saving on travel time and costs.
