Dog Behaviour Training - In home And Private
Dog Behaviour Training – Transform Your Dog’s Mind and Attitude
SitDropStay offers in-home and private dog behaviour training for dogs of any age. Using a holistic, psychology-based approach, we address the root of unwanted behaviours and create lasting change.
Why Choose SitDropStay for Dog Behaviour Training?
Dogs can be challenging—but no dog is untrainable. Missed puppy training school, rescue history, or past behavioural struggles are not barriers. Our team excels in rehabilitating problem behaviours where others have failed, even in cases involving medication or severe anxiety.
Anxiety & Reactivity in Dogs
Many behaviour problems that look like excitement, stubbornness, or disobedience are actually rooted in anxiety or emotional overload.
Dogs struggling with anxiety or reactivity often have difficulty coping with everyday situations such as visitors arriving, noises, other dogs, separation, or changes to routine. What we commonly see as hyperactivity, barking, spinning, or jumping is often a dog attempting to manage stress they don’t know how to regulate.
At SitDropStay, we don’t suppress these behaviours — we address the emotional state driving them. By slowing things down, restoring clarity, and creating calm structure in the home, dogs learn how to self-regulate and respond thoughtfully rather than react impulsively.
True calm doesn’t come from commands or distractions. It comes from helping your dog feel safe, guided, and supported.
Aggression & Safety Concerns
Aggression is not a personality trait — it is communication.
Growling, snapping, lunging, or guarding behaviours usually indicate fear, uncertainty, frustration, or a dog feeling pressured to manage situations on their own. These behaviours often escalate when early warning signs are misunderstood or ignored.
Our approach prioritises safety, clarity, and understanding. We carefully assess what is driving the behaviour, how your dog perceives their environment, and where boundaries or leadership may be unclear. From there, we put practical strategies in place that reduce pressure on the dog and restore calm decision-making.
With the right structure and guidance, many dogs no longer feel the need to use aggressive behaviour to cope.
Owner Coaching & Behaviour Change
Lasting behaviour change doesn’t come from training the dog alone.
Dogs are constantly responding to the emotional state, decisions, and consistency of the humans around them. This is why owner coaching is a core part of every SitDropStay consultation.
We help you understand how your dog thinks, how behaviour develops, and how your own actions — often unintentionally — influence outcomes. Rather than relying on treats, commands, or constant management, we focus on building trust, clarity, and calm leadership.
When owners change how they show up, dogs change naturally. This creates results that are sustainable, respectful, and aligned with real life — not just controlled training scenarios.
