Walk & Train
Life can be hectic, finding time for in person sessions may be a struggle. Walk & Train packages are perfect for busy schedules. They include an in person consultation at your home with you and your dog.
Then either five or ten walk & train sessions where I will work on a tailor made plan with your dog.
This could be in your home or on a walk depending on the goals. Whist you're at work or have any other commitment.
Then a final in person session with you and your dog.
I will upload videos and updates on what we have been learning in a personal folder on Google drive. Along with training resources for you and your family to follow at home in between sessions.
Free email/phone support included.

These sessions may not be suitable for all dogs. Please contact me to arrange a free telephone call, to find out how I can best help you and your dog.
With any training/behaviour package, I cannot ethically guarantee results. Every dog is unique and some may need more time.
Your commitment and consistency in between sessions is a big factor in whether training is successful at home too.
Consultation
I will come to you at your home where we will discuss in more detail, the challenges you are facing. I will meet your dog and we can begin to set a training plan and practice any practical work.
Further sessions may be at your home or on a walk, depending on the issues.
Online consultations will be as above but the consultation and sessions will take place via video calling.
Before meeting for the consultation, I will ask you to fill out an intake form to gather important information about your dog. I can highlight key information for us to discuss in more detail during the consultation. This will help us to find the root cause for your dogs behaviours.
Payments for any Zen Dog Training service to be made no later than 24 hours after receiving the invoice to secure your slot. All booked appointments are provisional until payment has been received.

"Rachael has been amazing , helping us with our hyper-reactive 3 yr old Jack Russell Terrier, Milo.
Rachael goes above and beyond to give support and advice . We have seen such an improvement in Milo’s behaviour and we now have the confidence to carry on with the tools and advice Rachael has given us. A very big thank you Rachael , from Jan , Nigel and Milo" 💕🐶💕
"Rachael is really lovely and did a fantastic job training our maltipoo Freddie. We would highly recommend her" Lesley
"Rachel is great with our puppy Jax, she has worked with us to train him and has been very helpful. Rachel gives so much support outside of sessions and will always reply and help with anything you ask and will send over information to help as well. Thanks to Rachel we managed to pass our puppy assistance dog award. We have learnt so much so has Jax, we enjoy every session and so does jax. I would definitely recommend Racheal:)" Lucy
"Rachel was very good with our spaniel Reggie, he had some issues with losing his temper with my other 3 doggies, rachel taught us to recognise when Reggie’s bucket was getting full and how to empty his bucket, we can now recognise when he’s getting overwhelmed and then calm him before he loses it, we haven’t had 1 reaction from him since, he’s like a different dog and can manage his behaviour so much better. I would definitely recommend her" Sarah
