FAQs — Billericay

My dog reacts on the lead — can this be fixed?

In most cases, yes. We assess honestly — sometimes it's frustration, sometimes fear, sometimes handler timing. The plan for a Billericay dog reflects which one it actually is.

Do you use e-collars or aversives?

We use whatever the dog in front of us needs, within the law, and we explain every tool honestly before you agree to anything. No dogma, no gimmicks.

How much does 1-2-1 training cost?

Pricing depends on the programme. We'll give you a straight number on the first call, not a form filler and a wait. Aftercare is included. Phone, message, follow-up sessions — you're not left guessing after delivery.
