Pulling on the leash
The walk that walks you
Tension travels down the lead in both directions. We start by changing what the lead means.
Individual dog training and loving boarding, in the hills above the lake.

Welcome back.
Training notes, boarding dates and your dog's progress — in one place.
Training
What your dog is telling you — and the four movements we use to answer it.
Scroll
01 — What you are seeing
Your dog isn't making your life difficult. Your dog is showing you something is difficult.
Behaviour is language. Before we change anything, we spend time learning what is being said — and to whom.
raised hackles, close crop
Reactivity & aggression
Distance, asked for loudly
Most aggression is a request for space that was ignored several quieter signals ago.

Anxiety
A body that never lands
Rest is a skill. We teach it the way we teach anything else — slowly, and with evidence.

Recall
Coming back, willingly
A recall is not obedience. It is a bet your dog makes that you are worth returning to.

Separation
Alone, but not abandoned
Measured in seconds first, then minutes. Never in one leap, and never by letting them cry it out.
02 — The method
Four movements, in order.
01
Observe.
The first session has no exercises in it. We watch — at home, on the street, at the threshold where things go wrong.

02
Understand.
Every behaviour has a function. We map the trigger, the distance, the threshold — and what the dog was actually asking for.

03
Train.
Short, repeatable, unglamorous. Ten good minutes a day, built into the life you already live.

Grow together.
The goal was never a well-behaved dog. It was two of you, reading each other, without needing to be told.

03 — Ways to train
Three ways to work together.
Every path starts with the same free conversation. Written notes after every session and a plan you can actually follow at home are always included.

04 — How it starts
We meet you where the problem lives.
No training hall, no artificial set-ups. The dog that pulls on your street is trained on your street — because that is where the change has to hold.
