A small-group training walk for dogs who struggle when other dogs pass them on the street.
For many dogs, pavement encounters can feel overwhelming. They may bark, pull, lunge, freeze, or simply find it hard to focus when another dog appears. This walk is designed to give you practical, kind and reward-based ways to support them.
We will meet in a quiet industrial-estate setting, where the roads are closed on Sundays and we have more control over space, distance and what the dogs see. This gives us the opportunity to practise real-life street-walking skills without the pressure of a busy public route.
During the walk, we will work on:
- Helping your dog notice another dog without becoming overwhelmed
- Creating more space and making calm choices
- Building focus and connection with you outdoors
- Using food, movement and simple exercises to support your dog
- Reading your dog’s body language and recognising when they need more distance
- Making a plan for everyday pavement walks
Places are limited so that every dog has space and individual support. Please message me before booking if you are unsure whether this walk is suitable for your dog.
