Private Dog Training:

Tailored Solutions for Your Canine Companion

Private dog training offers a personalised and effective approach to help you and your furry friend overcome behavioral challenges and develop a strong bond. I understand that every dog is unique, and that's why my private training sessions are designed to cater to your specific needs and goals.

When you choose private dog training, you can expect one-on-one attention where I work closely with you to assess your dog's behaviour, identify areas for improvement, and create a customised training plan. Whether your pup needs help with basic obedience, lead walking, separation anxiety, or any other behavioral issue, I will tailor the training plan to suit you and your dog’s learning style. Throughout the training sessions I will equip you with the necessary tools and techniques to maintain continued progress even after the private sessions are complete! *please note that the Feisty Fido Program is recommended for dogs who display aggression or lead reactivity. 

Investing in dog training is an investment in your dog's long-term well-being. By addressing behaviour issues early and working towards improving your dog's obedience skills, you can ensure a harmonious and strong relationship with your four-legged companion. Whether you're a new puppy owner or have an adult dog who needs some extra guidance, Paws & Reward’s private training sessions are designed to achieve optimal results while keeping your dog's happiness and welfare at the forefront.

Take the next step towards a well-behaved and contented canine companion. Book a private training session and unlock the full potential of your beloved dog today!

What dog owners are saying.

  • "I truly can’t recommend Lena from Paws & Reward highly enough! We first saw Lena for training when she worked at our vets. After she started Paws & Reward we specifically sought Lena out to work with her again cause we honestly could not imagine anyone else working with us and our dog. Lena is kind, understanding and empathetic in her approach, towards both animals and owners, and she has an absolute wealth of knowledge. We have an extremely high needs dog and he absolutely loves her. Her techniques are completely fear free (which was really important to us) but so effective! With Lena’s help we have been able to support our dog in ways that we honestly never thought possible. It has brought a sense of peace to both us and our dog that we honestly can’t thank Lena enough for. She always comes so prepared and you can tell she takes in every detail about your animal so she can best support them and you. Sessions are always really clear and well planned out, and her follow up is so helpful! Truly, truly, if you have an animal that needs support with training, I can’t recommend Paws and Reward highly enough. We’ve known Lena for a few years now and both our experiences and outcomes are positive every single time."

    Maddy and Oscar

  • "Lena is so helpful and knowledgeable, and the advice we have received has been the biggest help. I love her positive style of training which is practical and effective. We've seen great results with Pepper so far and looking forward future training sessions!"

    Millie

  • "Lena has a great understanding of dog and human training , Lena reads the dog's actions really well , and is caring of our cats . 🌼 Lena is friendly and goes the extra mile to help!"

    Jane, Alan and Indy

  • "Lena was an awesome trainer! We initially tried puppy training with another local company that lacked personalised attention to ours and our puppies needs. Lena addressed all the concerns we had and more with some very realistic training methods that appear to have worked. Thanks Lena."

    James

  • "We needed help with some anxious behaviour with 4 year old female spoodle Belle to adjust to being rehomed, and to live her best life. Lena Logan from Paws & Reward was recommended by Belles vet and we started the Feisty Fido program just over a month ago. When Lena first came she did an extensive review of Belles history, behaviours and discussed with us our goals. She provided a very thorough written review and ongoing plan from the first session and started to educate us, and Belle in the skills we all needed. Lena provided guided sessions of the training and printed examples of all the training and calming techniques for us to refer to when we needed. Lena is calm, patient and clearly very experienced. After 3 sessions with Lena, and us reinforcing the things we have learnt, Belle has responded to all the training and her anxiety has reduced. We highly recommend Lena and her Fiesty Fido program."

    Theresa

  • "A great dog training business! Lena is knowledgeable and helpful and always has an idea or two about how to address even the most challenging behaviours. Her training is all about positive reinforcement and rewarding desirable behaviours rather than focusing on what our puppy was doing wrong. I definitely recommend Paws & Reward for anyone looking for a brilliant trainer."

    Julie

  • "We have had the pleasure of working with Lena across two entirely different circumstances – private classes for an anxious dog and puppy college with our newest addition. Lena’s depth of knowledge, experience and dedication to her craft is a cut above the rest. With a range of commercial puppy schools pushing puppy socialisation in the form of putting them in circle together left me with a very overstimulated pup and feeling like a failure that I couldn’t ‘control’ my puppy. All the signs were there, but I didn’t know any better – and wasn’t educated on the fact that the environment was too much for my puppy. Lena’s guidance has helped me undo the common misconceptions about puppy and dog training and has seen me develop into a confident puppy/dog owner. I highly recommend Paws and Rewards and look forward to future courses, such as snake awareness training. Thank you, Lena!"

  • "Lena is so amazing with Murphy, he is turning into a wonderful dog with his behaviour being so much better. I'm even getting much better with training him. Highly recommend Lena with any kind of help with your animals."
