  • We will show you how to help your dog gain confidence, build optimism and reduce its fear or anxiety.
  • We use low stress coaching techniques, based on science. All of which are positive and reward based. This helps hugely with the learning process and builds trust and forms stronger bonds.


  • Focus on you by your dog is an essential behaviour your dog can learn. 


  • Once learnt unwanted behaviours you both experienced together , for example running off maybe  to chase other dogs or wildlife, or  pulling on  the lead excessively or simply never returning when called simply start to decrease .


  • Focus Dogs will help you build this focus through games that create a learning environment for your dog. Increasing the bond between you and developing the dog's skill set in learning to live with us in our busy world.
