1-on-1 Dog Training

Here at SCAR, we understand that not every dog is suited to big group training sessions and that sometimes it can be hard to attend them anyway due to the busy lives we all lead. This is where our 1-on-1 Training Program comes in!

This program is designed to offer you a personalised approach to your dog’s specific needs. Our team will help you understand why your dog behaves the way they do and create a tailored ongoing training plan to help you and your family transform your pooch into the happy, well-behaved dog they deserve to be!

This program caters to dogs of all ages and can help with many standard and complex behavioural issues, including:

  • Separation Distress
  • Aggression
  • Leash Reactivity
  • Multi-dog Household Issues
  • Over-excitement
  • and much more!

Initial Consult (90 Minutes):

  • These consultations are for dogs who have not had a training session with us before.
  • The extra time allows our trainers to gather an extensive history as well as create a tailored training plan to help address your dog’s behavioural concerns.

Follow-Up Consult (60 Minutes):

  • These consultations are for any ongoing training sessions required following your dog’s initial consult.

At SCAR, we offer more than just standard dog obedience

So, start your dog out on the right paw, and book your personalised one-on-one training consultation today!
