Transform Your Dog with Bert's Buddies Training Plans

At Bert's Buddies, we believe in building strong, positive relationships between dogs and their owners. We offer tailored and reliable, reward based training to meet a variety of needs. Here are some of the top dog training needs we cover in our training sessions:

Basic Obedience

Mastering commands like sit, stay, come, and heel.

I focus on positive reinforcement techniques to teach essential commands, ensuring your dog responds reliably at home and in public.

Recall Training

Ensuring your dog comes back when called, every time.

Recall sessions make coming back to you fun and rewarding for your dog, even amidst distractions.

Loose Lead Walking

No more pulling on the lead during walks.

I work with you to teach your dog to walk calmly beside you, making walks more enjoyable for both you and your dog.

Puppy Training

Setting the foundation for a well-behaved adult dog.

Puppy training covers basic cues, socialisation skills, and early problem prevention to start your puppy off on the right paw.

Reactivity

Helping dogs who react to other dogs, people, or environments.

We work together on desensitisation and counter-conditioning techniques, creating personalised plans to reduce stress and improve behaviour.

Separation Anxiety

Addressing distress when left alone.

I tailor gradual desensitisation programs, helping dogs feel secure and relaxed when home alone.

Impulse Control

Teaching patience and focus in high-energy dogs.

Through games and structured exercises, I help dogs develop self-control, making everyday situations more manageable.

Resource Guarding

Managing behaviours around food, toys, or spaces.

My approach focuses on reducing anxiety and teaching positive associations to prevent guarding behaviours.
