How Alison achieved confidence and calmness with The Puppy Training Programme

2 months ago Alison’s life with her new puppy, Bluey, was “chaotic”. So much so, it was affecting her mental and physical health. She’d “wake up in the morning with a tight stomach” feeling dread about the day ahead. 

She doubted her decision to bring a puppy into her family and had many tearful conversations with her husband. 

Alison was struggling with structure, routine and consistency. 

“Everyone in the family is doing their own thing”. 

Bluey was jumping up on visitors, pulling on the lead, disliked handling, barked in the window and chewed skirting boards.

2 months on, Alison, her family, and Bluey are happy and content. 

We’ve gone from chaos to calm. From having regrets about getting a puppy to seeing a lovely bond developing

Alison invested in The Puppy Training Programme. Here’s how it helped her to feel confident about raising and training her puppy, banish the stress, and create calm. 

Transforming their lives together forever. 

The 3 C’s of The Puppy Training Programme 

The 3 C’s certainly overlap, but compliment one another perfectly. 

1. Conversation

Alison and I had many open and honest conversations about anything and everything that impacted her and Bluey’s life together. 

Not only did this help me to gain a deeper understanding of what was happening and why, so I could give her maximum support and tailor her programme, Alison and I built a fantastic relationship. 

If I didn’t encourage, care for you and your family then training becomes robotic. 

Unmeaningful. 

Which doesn’t motivate you to continue long after I’m gone. 

That’s not what I want for you and your puppy. 

Alison absolutely nailed the behaviours she wanted from Bluey, she met her puppy training goals because we were able to be so specific. And we can’t do that without open and honest conversations.

2. Clarity

Through our conversations Alison gained clarity about how dogs learn, and more specifically about Bluey. 

Giving her the knowledge and understanding every new puppy parent needs to build an unbreakable bond with their new 4-legged friend. 

I understand now that dogs don’t just figure it out for themselves. They need structure, guidance and daily training

After each of her 5 sessions Alison knew what to do, how to do it, how long for, and most importantly WHY she was doing it, so she had the skills to progress and build on previous learning. 

Have you ever attended a training course and wrote pages of notes because you know you’ll never remember all the points? 

Well, we could do that in The Puppy Training Programme, but that’d be taking up your time. So instead, I video you working with your pup and send it to you the same day. This also means you can share with family members so everyone is on the same page. 

Anything we’ve discussed you receive in an email the following working day along with your homework. 

People learn in different ways, so whatever kind of learner you are, I have you covered. 

You’ll have clarity to move forwards and progress quickly, not just during your programme, but for the rest of your life. Priceless! 

3. Communication

Communication is deeply entwined in conversation and clarity, but I wanted to include it as an element on its own because this is how Alison made the most of our time together. 

As well as the points above, Alison and I kept in touch between her sessions. I checked in with her to see how she was getting on, she reported back, shared her wins, videos of her and Bluey out on a walk together. Fantastic! 

And what I encourage all my clients to do. 

I’m here to answer any questions that crop up and celebrate your wins with you. I hold your hand every step of the way making sure you are fully supported and succeed! 

Raising and training a puppy is a daunting task. I know you want to get it right because they are part of your family.

So, how would it feel to have an expert guide you?

To be there for you, even when it’s not your training time?

That’s exactly what you get when you sign up to The Puppy Training Programme. 

Here’s a post Alison shared inside my free Facebook group The Puppy Hub, 4 weeks after her programme had ended. Click here if you’d like to join that.

The results speak for themselves. 

Alison has a full toolkit of behaviours she wants from Bluey, which she can use around distractions. 

Bluey’s life is enriched and his needs met. 

Happy puppy and happy family.
