Training and behaviour support in Newbury, tailored to your dog.
Welfare-first training and behaviour support for owners who want to enjoy life with their dog more.
You love your dog. But you don’t always like them.
Something is making life harder than it needs to be and now you dread taking your dog outside - or maybe having other people coming inside is the problem.
So far you’ve tried everything. Snippets of advice on social media. Something you read in a book. That thing the bloke down the park swears worked for his dog. But nothing has stuck.
That’s where I come in. Hi I’m Kaelum.
I’m a Newbury-based dog trainer with a welfare-first, whole dog approach to tackling behaviour and training challenges. This approach is backed by science. It’s the modern, effective way of overcoming difficult behaviours.
I don’t just look at what your dog does on - or off - the lead. I look at the big picture. Rest, diet, physical and mental wellness, activity levels and general lifestyle. All the things which have a massive impact on the behaviour of your dog.
When you work with me, you’ll come away with a much better understanding of your dog and what they need. You’ll feel empowered and better equipped. Best of all, you’ll start liking your dog, as well as loving them.
Training & Behaviour Success Package.
A comprehensive and tailored approach to helping you enjoy life with your dog again.
Here’s what you get
A full assessment. Getting an in-depth understanding of your dog and the issues you’re facing is critical to developing a tailored training plan. I’ll ask you to provide detailed information at the start of the programme so I can support you and your dog in the best way.
In-person training sessions. We’ll work on the practical skills you need to build real change, in the environments where you need them.
A bespoke action plan after every session. Written instructions, video demos, extra resources. No waiting around, wondering what you need to do next.
WhatsApp Coaching. The difference between progress and feeling stuck is continued coaching in real-time. I’ll give you specific tasks throughout the week, tailored to your dog’s progress and confidence. I’ll ask you to record where you can, so I can give tailored advice on what to do next.
WhatsApp Support. This is like having a best friend who’s a dog trainer. Want to get on top of a challenging behaviour early? Need to troubleshoot your training technique? Send a message and we’ll sort it together.
Downloadable socialisation checklist. The first 16 weeks of your pup’s life are vital. We call it the socialisation window and it’s easy to get wrong. This free download makes sure that you don’t.
How does the WhatsApp Coaching work?
You send me video updates of your training. I take a look and give you coaching on your technique, help to problem solve any issues and give you the next steps. This way, you’re always progressing. It’s day-to-day coaching, rather than always waiting for our next in-person appointment.
It also means that I can drip-feed new exercises gradually, instead of cramming everything into our physical appointments. You and your dog get to work at a pace that’s manageable and natural for both of you.
If you need a demo, I’ll film myself doing it. If there’s useful content elsewhere that will help you, I’ll point you in the right direction. The more you share, the more tailored and effective your coaching becomes.
