Furthermore, I am continually learning, there is no one big book on dog training to read and memorise its an ever-growing and evolving science, I’d be shit at my job if I didn’t keep up to date with it. This really means I have studied, spent time reading books, taking courses, attending talks, and much more. I have put hours and months and years into growing my knowledge I am not about to hand it over for free.
You also get access to my training library of videos, handouts, and other resources all of which take time and effort to create and collate to benefit my clients and their dogs.

I’ve had many clients travel to me from outside of Edinburgh from other parts of Scotland. My proven training methods, specifically with rescue dogs, have helped hundreds of dogs locally in Leith, Bruntsfield, Morningside, East and South End of Edinburgh, the West End Haymarket Dalry, Stockbridge in the northern region and there’s always the Tollcross Lothian Road and Princes Street areas. The truth is that YES at first glance it does look expensive but if you take a step back and think for a moment exactly what it is your getting for that ‘princely’ sum you’ll see it’s actually very reasonable indeed. Rescue dogs my look the most adorable pooches, but often they are far from the perfect dog when you take them home, as this lady discovered.
She was willing to spend her time searching for her perfect dog, spend money adopting the dog, commit to buying food, treats, dog accessories etc for the dog – but spending £255 on 3 hours of 121 training with a professional dog trainer is somehow a step too far. How Much Does Adopting a Rescue Dog Cost together with Training So you’re getting a lot more than an hour of my time really. I usually provide clients with training treats and some form of equipment for them to use and keep. Or maybe you have a quick question to ask. Then in between training sessions, I am available to you 24/7 via phone, text, and email aka your trainer in your pocket to help you with any problems you are having right there and then. After each visit I will go and type up your own tailor-made training plan, exercises and games, again no one size fits all handout. But it is so much more than a single hour I am giving you for an hourly rate. What your get with a tailored training plan is my time, this one is pretty much a given right considering I am coming to your home for an hour’s visit.

This is an investment in your future with your dog, a future where you don’t have to battle with the problem or problems you are having right now. Then I told her the price – you would have thought I’d somehow managed to slap her through the phone and told her that her dog was ugly judging by her reaction! She was extremely put out that my standard rate is £85 per hour for dog training ‘Well I didn’t want to spend THAT much money’ What’s the price of NOT investing in professional 121 dog training? I also explained a few of my proven techniques and exactly what training I’d be showing the lady so she can teach her dog. I briefly explained to her what I knew she needed, how my rewards-based training would help transform her dog, and in turn her life, so she wouldn’t be stressed anymore. Well, she came to the right person because I specialise in training rescued/adopted dogs. She filled me in on the problems she was having, the main one being her dog barks at other dogs. She recounted to me her story of how she found, and subsequently, adopted her new dog. I was recently speaking to a lady who was enquiring about 121 training for her dog.
