Hounds 'n' Harmony
Canine Behaviour & Training
Canine Behaviour & Training
Dogs can develop behavioural issues at any age. They can range from excessive barking, jumping-up and pulling on the lead, to resource guarding, excessive paw licking and separation anxiety. However, behind these 'symptoms' is a route cause, and at Hounds 'n' Harmony we establish what that is, and implement a change program.
What's important to remember, is that our dogs are only reacting to the signals that we are giving out. This is good news, as it means that if we change our signals, the dogs behaviour will change too.
It never ceases to amaze me how a simple conversation between two people can be interpreted very differently, causing misunderstandings and major fall outs. Dogs communicate by reading body language and facial expressions, and when you consider that 55% of human communication is body language, you can begin to understand where the confusion stems from.
We offer two packages, both of which deliver positive results after the first session! Plus you'll have the opportunity to join monthly support zooms, which will keep you on track.
Top Dog - £380 (4 sessions)

This package is perfect for new dog owners or dogs presenting with behavioural issues.
Focusing on behaviour and training combined, you will be taught the fundamentals of canine language; why your dog does the things he/she does; and how to change that behaviour, leaving you with a relaxed, happy and engaged dog.
All sessions are held at your home, which enables me to assess the dog in their natural environment. Each session lasts around 90 minutes.
NB; As with any type of behaviour modification or training, it is only effective if applied consistently and correctly by the owners.
Puppy Package £330 (3 sessions)
Puppy Package £330 (3 sessions)
Getting a new puppy is exciting but can also be a very daunting and stressful time. That's why it's important to set off on the right foot, which if possible is as soon as you bring your new puppy home.
Our puppy package is perfect for puppies up to the age of 16 weeks. We take you through toilet training, feeding & nutrition, teething, playtime, bedtime, acclimatisation, socialisation and walking.
You will be taught the fundamentals of canine language, so you are equipped to deal with any behaviours that may arise as the puppy develops, ensuring that you have a relaxed, happy and engaged dog.

We worked with Collette at Hounds n Harmony after experiencing issues with our puppy. She suffered with separation anxiety and was very reactive and nervous around people she doesn’t know. Collette started by getting an understanding of what issues we were having, established where we were going wrong and then did a fantastic job of helping us get back on track. She explained how dogs think, how they communicate and that enabled us to understand the root cause of our Ruby’s issues (us in a nutshell!). She covered everything in stages so as not to overwhelm us and so putting a plan into action was manageable. We are delighted to say that after 3 sessions we have a much more confident, relaxed and happier dog, we cannot believe the difference in her! We still have work to do but the lifestyle change comes really naturally to us now and we really feel we know what to do in most situations. Essentially she taught us how to speak canine 🐶 Collette was friendly, clear and most importantly focused on helping our dog. You can tell she absolutely loves what she does, she is highly knowledgeable and her passion for it really comes through. We could not recommend Hounds 'n' Harmony enough!

Collette was amazing with her knowledge of what we needed to do with our cockapoo Dudley who had put himself in the role of the leader of our pack. She was always accommodating if we needed to change an appointment. We were also very pleased to find that she had a great way of making us feel at ease and an excellent sense of humour. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her and would assure anyone that if you have any issues with your dog she is the right person to go to. You will see results quicker than you can imagine

Collette has been helping us with our 2 very lively, energetic nearly 2 year old girls, who were definitely taking on
the role of alphas. We have completed the 3 step behaviour reset and can see a massive improvement in the girls,
they are calmer, not on high alert all the time and acting like ‘ hooligans’ as my mum called them. Collette was on
hand all the time to answer questions and point us in the right direction. Emails after each session with pointers
on what we needed to be doing. Would defo recommend Collette to help you with any problems you may have
with your fur babies.

"Collette and Chelsie have both been incredible at resetting and improving my 2 dogs behaviour with the Top Dog training package. From the very first session we saw a vast change over the next 48 hours following the advice and training strategies Collette gave us. This improvement has continued to give us much calmer dogs in the house who can now follow clear, simple instructions and are a delight to have around. I was literally at the end of my tether with my two, but these ladies have transformed our lives. Their patience and understanding is second to none and their clear , precise, personalised training programs are easy to follow with excellent results when time and practice is put in. Knowing that they are available via email or phone should I need anymore assistance with training is a great bonus and gives reassurance should any further advice be needed. Thank you Collette and Chelsie!"

"Fantastic results from our training. We saw positive results within hours after first session. Our Labrador Retriever's chewing - a sign of a stressed dog, was dramatically reduced after the first session. We're now walking our pooch with occasional pulling. We have no doubt that with continued practice, we'll be walking him stress-free. Definitely good value-for-money. Thanks Colette"

"We had not heard of this sort of training before. It sounded too good to be true, so we got in touch with Collette and we’re still amazed with the results. Seriously you can see the change within 48 hours, after only a few weeks we now have a completely different dog, he’s a lot happier and a lot calmer. Would definitely recommend Hounds 'n' Harmony to anyone with a dog. Thank you Collette".

"We were recommended to Collette as we were struggling with some of our dogs behaviour. The results were amazing, within a couple of hours we had a much calmer puppy and have recommended Collette to a couple of friends".

" Collette offers amazing dog training! Our 2 year old french bulldog x pug was sometimes aggressive (often completely randomly!) and we had to do something about it. Prior to Collette we had tried 2 other dog trainers, both of whom were not able to address our dogs issues (and in one case made them worse!). We had the 3 lesson package which consisted of a 2-hour session for 3 consecutive weeks (we thought this was excellent value given the price of some other trainers!). The period in-between lessons was great for practicing and recognising anything that wasn’t going to plan! Her training is methodical, fairly straightforward and logical. Within the 3 weeks our dogs behaviour was completely different! Would recommend for any behavioural issues!
