Benefits of Training Walks

Our Training Walks deliver all the benefits of a Solo Walk, plus a focus on improving the behaviours that matter to you. We can help with the whole gamut of training issues. Poor lead-walking? Challenges around other dogs? Whether getting off to a good start with a young pup, staying consistent through your dog's terrible teens, or just teaching an old dog new tricks, we can help.

At Barkmatter, we want to make sure your dog is an engaged and happy learner so we use reward based, force-free training methods to bring out the best in them. Our experienced dog trainer is well versed in the latest training methods. Every dog learns differently and will benefit from an individualised approach. We will learn what works for your dog and ensure that our training walks are both fun and engaging.

Our Training Walk Process

We start with an initial consultation to discuss your training goals and assess your dog's current behaviour. Based on this, we will develop a customized training plan. During each walk, our trainer will implement these techniques, focusing on specific commands and behaviours. We provide regular progress updates and tips for you to continue the training at home, ensuring consistency and long-term success.

Training walks are structured yet flexible, which means that we adapt to your dog's learning pace and energy. We focus on creating positive associations with learning and being outdoors, so that training will be a rewarding experience. We also work on generalizing learned behaviours to various environments, helping to develop long-lasting improvements.
