My online training course is the same as the 5 week course, except it is done over the telephone. You may wonder how this could work, but it really does and you can read reviews from clients at the bottom of this page and on my testimonial page.
Like the face to face course, in just five weeks I will teach you how to have a totally obedient dog, so that you can enjoy a perfectly trained companion.
This course is designed for people with dogs aged four and a half months or more, and who cannot attend my Devon location in person – you may live in a different area of the UK, or even abroad.
The course covers all the essential basics to ensure your dog remains fully under your control, both on and off the lead. I will train you personally, and make allowances for your dog’s own unique character (believe me no two are ever the same!).
The course syllabus includes:
- Maintaining good behaviour in the home
- Applying the principles of pack leadership
- Setting and enforcing behaviour boundaries
- Discipline – knowing when, where and how
- Obedience training to hand signals and a whistle
- Learning how nutrition can affect behaviour
- Teaching social skills with other dogs and humans
And by the end of the course, you will own a dog who can…
- Walks to heel on a lead without pulling
- Walks to heel off a lead at your side
- Leaves your side on command
- Sits, stays and comes to a whistle
- Sits at a distance on a whistle and a hand signal
- Does not chase livestock
- Comes back every time on command on the whistle
The course consists of 3 x 60 minute phone calls, 2 weeks apart. You will receive all the training notes, and a full training equipment kit, if required. During the course and afterwards, I am available for ongoing support on email or phone, ensuring you have the best outcome for you and your dog.
I will provide you with the skills and techniques and you must apply daily for two hours every day, (split into 4 x 30 minute sessions) for 7 days a week for the next five weeks.
Yes, it does require a degree of commitment from you, but, I promise it will work and I also promise that by using my guidance you and your dog will enjoy every minute.
To chat to me about this option please call or email me.
Online course review
“We live in Northumberland and signed up for Ingrid’s online dog training course with some reservations if I’m honest, I wasn’t convinced that dog training could be as effective online as it would be in person. But she was highly recommended to us so we were keen to work with her. However, I can say without hesitation that it has worked 100%!
The course structure, with three phone calls and practical work to complete in between, was brilliant. The calls gave us clear guidance and direction, and the exercises helped us put everything into practice with our dog at home.
What really made the difference was the support we received from Ingrid throughout. From the very beginning, we felt encouraged and guided every step of the way. Whenever we had questions or doubts, she was always there to help. Both my husband and I felt supported, motivated, and reassured throughout the process.
The progress we’ve seen in our dog has been fantastic, and we’ve gained so much confidence as owners too. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is unsure about online dog training. It absolutely works, and the support you receive is second to none”
