One on One Training

Tailored Behaviour Support for Real-Life Challenges

Some behaviour issues go beyond basic training. That’s where our one-on-one sessions come in.

Whether your dog is barking at every sound, lunging at passers-by, panicking when left alone, or just seems overwhelmed by the world around them—we’re here to help you navigate it calmly, ethically, and with real results.

At Dog Training Toolshed, we don’t believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. These sessions are tailored to your dog’s unique needs and emotional state, so both you and your dog feel more supported and less stressed—right from the start.

What We Can Help With

One-on-one training is ideal for addressing:

  • Reactivity (barking, lunging at people or other dogs)
  • Separation anxiety or distress when left alone
  • Resource guarding around toys, food, or spaces
  • Generalised fearfulness or sensory overwhelm
  • Lead pulling or difficulty on walks
  • Excessive barking in the home or yard
  • Handling struggles at home or the vet
  • Complex behaviours like recall or loose lead walking

  • Optional resources like videos and handouts to reinforce learning

Duration: 60–90 minutes
Location: At our Numurkah facility
Includes: Detailed follow-up notes, recommendations, and optional video guidance

Why It Matters

Dogs don’t come with manuals—and behaviour challenges often leave carers feeling overwhelmed, ashamed, or unsure where to turn.

These one-on-one sessions are calm, non-judgemental, and designed to reduce the pressure while giving you clear tools to move forward. You’ll walk away feeling supported, informed, and hopeful—with a plan that actually fits into your real life.

Because every dog is different—and so is every family.

Who This Is For

One-on-one training is a great choice if:

  • You’ve tried generic advice and it hasn’t worked
  • Your dog struggles in busy or group settings
  • You want expert eyes on a specific behaviour
  • You need flexible support that fits your lifestyle
  • You value calm, kind, education-based training

Whether you’re managing reactivity, preventing future issues, or just need more clarity and structure, these sessions are designed to make life feel easier and more connected with your dog.
