Settle Down: Self - Paced Crash Course
Teach your dog how to go to their bed and stay there happily, when you need them to
Just wanted to say thanks Aleksandra.
Coco and I ventured out out in a taxi tonight to a pub in town. Although I took our settle mat the pub provided a bed and despite the copious amount of attention she got, and the distractions of food and drink being served......this was her lovely settle for most of the 3 hours ❤️ Big success 👍x

Is this what you need?
Imagine having friends around or enjoying a family dinner while your dog is calmly settled, instead of jumping up on the table and being a little (or big) pest.
Imagine working from home, your dog snoozing on their bed for as long as needed.
Imagine having visitors over, with your dog being calm and polite instead of jumping up on everyone, running around, stealing things and constantly seeking attention.
Imagine sitting back on a sofa, relaxing with a favourite show or film, with your dog curled up and snoring happily next to you, instead of bouncing off the walls, using you as a trampoline, taking off with the remote control, raiding your snacks, barking and biting.
Imagine being able to take your dog to a pub, cafe or beer garden, with your dog choosing happily to relax beside you or under the table for the whole evening.
Wherever you are: home, pub, beer garden, cafe, dog club or vet reception, you can ask your dog to settle down and relax.
This 7 day course is an essential foundation for a Calm Settle and controlled down stay, and the perfect place to start if you have a crazy, cheeky, fun loving dog.
Three weeks or so on and what a difference. When I sit at the table to work she just hops on her bed!

We’ve learned heaps and the wins so far are:
-She’s better at chilling when I’m working = fewer guest appearances on my Zoom calls 😆
-She doesn’t feel the need to dive on everyone who rings the doorbell. She greeted a friend quite calmly (for her) this week and then went inside, jumped on her bed & stayed there 🙌
-If we stop for a coffee on a walk, Piper will generally sit well while we drink, watching the world go by.

Hi, I'm Aleks!
I help people with crazy, lovable, naughty young spaniels (and other working breed pets) to build a happy harmonious and fun-filled life together. I support them in learning the skills they need, so that they can go wherever they want and to have amazing adventures together. I help them understand their adolescent spaniel, discover what's going on underneath the surface and create an amazing connection.
I am an accredited dog training instructor with IMDT (Institute of Modern Dog Trainers), a Mantrailing UK instructor and a UK College of Scent Dogs instructor. I'm currently working towards a gundog training instructor certification with Gundog Trainers Academy.
I am also a canine behaviour practitioner, with over 10 years of intensive practical experience, hundreds of successful behaviour modification programmes and an extensive continued professional development in dog behaviour and training.
I live in the Welsh mountains with my 6 dogs, including a working cocker, springer spaniel, a labrador retriever, a collie mix and a two staffordshire bull terriers. We train and compete in several dog sports and training projects, including scent detection, competition obedience, working gundog tests and GRC/Canine Athletics. In winter, I'm part of a beating team on three local shoots.
