FAQs — Great Dunmow

How long is a board & train stay for a Great Dunmow dog?

Most dogs from Great Dunmow and across Essex run 2–4 weeks; behavioural cases and full obedience overhauls run 4–6 weeks. We quote honestly after the assessment.

What does the handover session cover?

We deliver the dog to your home in Great Dunmow and spend a full session teaching the household how to hold every behaviour we've built. You get the dog back with a manual — not a mystery.

Do you work with rescue dogs?

Regularly. A rescue with baggage is often exactly the sort of dog that benefits most from a proper structured programme. Straightforward: assessment, plan, structured work, handover. No mystique.

How far do you travel from Great Dunmow?

Great Dunmow is comfortably inside our travel radius — we work across the whole of Essex and the surrounding commuter belt. We're on A120 and B184 regularly, which puts Great Dunmow well inside a straightforward drive from us.

Can you fix a reactive dog that lunges on the lead?

Yes. Lead reactivity is one of the most common calls we take. It's fixable with a proper plan, honest handling and enough real-world exposure — not a magic collar. Straightforward: assessment, plan, structured work, handover. No mystique.

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.
