Confident Snouts

Practise in the real world, with dogs who understand the rules.

Group sessions in South Dublin for dogs who find other dogs difficult, run at a distance where everyone can cope.

One to one training gives you the skills. Confident Snouts is where you use them, with other dogs present, in a setting built so nobody is pushed past what they can handle.

Every dog here is in the same boat. Nobody is going to let their dog bound over to say hello. Nobody is watching you and judging. You work at your own distance, you leave when your dog has had enough, and you practise the things that are impossible to rehearse on a normal street.

What a session looks like

  • Small numbers, carefully matched, with space between every dog
  • Work at a distance your dog is comfortable with, closing it only when they are ready
  • Engage and disengage, pattern games, and calm observation of other dogs
  • Me on hand throughout, reading the dogs and calling it when it is time to stop

This is for you if

  • Your dog struggles around other dogs and you have nowhere safe to practise
  • You have done one to one work and want to put it to use
  • You want progress without throwing your dog in at the deep end
