Services
We have a range of packages and services available depending on your needs or requirements. To book a service or discuss what package might be best for you, please get in contact with us.
Behaviour package
If you’re struggling with a behaviour issue, not sure how to deal with it or at the end of your tether, this is the package for you.
In the consultation, we’ll talk through the issue and observe what might be going wrong, and then work with you to implement some solutions. We’ll then meet for a follow-up a few weeks later to track progress, support you further and maybe adjust the training plan if needed.
Ages appropriate for: all
Location: your home/local walking spots
Costs:
Behaviour consultation (2 hours – £50)
Behaviour follow-up (2 hours – £40)
Training package
If you’re after some general training or in need of help to undo bad habits, this package will help get things back on track.
During the first session we’ll get to know you and the dog, and then implement a training plan with lots of fun teaching and practical demos. Following sessions will continue to address training, but we’ll also increase the criteria to positively challenge the dog and improve learning further.
Ages appropriate for: 1 year onwards
Location: your home/local walking spots
Costs:
Training session 1 (2 hours – £45)
Training session 2 (1 hour – £25)
Training session 3 (1 hour – £25)
Puppy package
Ideal for new or first-time puppy owners, this package is designed to set you and your puppy up for a successful future.
The prep session can take place before puppy’s arrival (or soon after) to lay the foundations of successful puppy ownership, and equip you with ways to avoid common issues! In following sessions, we’ll teach you and your puppy key skills including name training, loose lead walking, socialisation, habituation, toilet training, recall, “leave it” and much more.
We are in for the journey as much as you are. So the sessions are opportunities for your learning and peace of mind as well, while we ensure your pup’s development stages are ticking over nicely.
Ages appropriate for: 8 weeks – 1 year
Location: your home/local walking spots
Costs:
Puppy prep session (2 hours – £40)
Puppy training session 1 (1 hour – £20)
Puppy training session 2 (1 hour – £20)
Puppy training session 3 (1 hour – £20)
Full training day
How does spending a whole day with a professional Dog Trainer sound? Well look no further if you want to address a few general training or behaviour issues at once.
We start the day with a consultation and observation to get to grips with the best course of action. Then after a short lunch break, we’ll return with a plan and get to work with lots of fun teaching and practical demos. The goal is to equip you and your dog with the techniques to build (or rebuild) the foundations of a happy home and healthy relationship.
Ages appropriate for: all
Location: your home/local walking spots
Costs:
Full training day (6 hours – £110)
Further one-to-one sessions
After completing a service package or the full training day, we’ll always keep in touch to support you and your dog on an ad-hoc basis.
We’ll never just say “goodbye and good luck” because working with dogs is a process, not a quick fix. We always encourage regular contact, and most owners find that further one-to-one sessions help them to keep on track with a training plan!
Ages appropriate for: all
Location: your home/local walking spots
Costs:
One-to-one session (1 hour – £25)
Classes
In classes, we teach key skills to set you and your dog up for a successful future, including: socialisation, loose lead walking, focus, recall, fun tricks, “leave it” and much more.
We only use positive reinforcement and force-free training methods – so you’ll also learn lots about how to communicate with your dog and ways to work with them. That being said, this is not an obedience class. Obedience is an “I say, you do” type of approach to training. Whereas at Unite Behaviour, we’re big believers in communication and teaching in order to build skills and strengthen relationships.
Ages appropriate for: varying depending on the class
Location: Houghton Regis
Costs:
Life skills class (6x 1 hour classes – £120)
How we work
Prior to meeting in person, you’ll be asked to complete a background questionnaire. You’re encouraged to complete the background questionnaire honestly, to help bring us up to speed with what you need help with and what you’d like to achieve.
We aim to arrive fully briefed and prepared with a rough idea of the best course of action. This means we can spend more time observing behaviours, talking through what might be going wrong and demonstrating practical solutions.
First sessions can sometimes be a lot to take in. But don’t worry, you’ll receive a written report sent via email including everything we speak about and demonstrate. Further sessions are also followed by a brief summary in an email.
All clients are encouraged to read and agree to our code of ethics prior to working with us.
