Zoella Dog Training

About

Training Zoey, my own stubborn dog, changed how I see dog training - it's not about barking orders. It's about trust, figuring out each other, and finding ways to actually live together. I want you and your dog to enjoy that same understanding, not just have a dog who listens out of fear.

What We Tackle

• Real-life obedience for family dogs, not just "sit" and "paw kar lo" (shake hands).
• Reliable recall training for older dogs, so your dog comes back every single time.
• Loose leash walking for adult dogs - no more embarrassing tug-of-war in front of the neighbors.
• Teaching "leave it" so your dog skips the street food and random plastic.
• Focus building with "look at me" - super handy for those distracted moments.

Life Skills Beyond Basics

• Calm greetings - no more jumping on guests like a crazy monkey.
• Vet visits and grooming made chill, using simple cues like "Middle" (dog standing between your legs).
• Confidence for shy or previously scared dogs, step by step, never rushed.

For Tricky Behaviour

• Managing reactivity in adult pets and working through things like resource guarding or sensitivity to touch.
• I keep it positive - never harsh, but real about the patience it takes.

Keeping Your Dog Happy

• Enrichment ideas: from snuffle mats to letting them tear up cardboard boxes (better the box than your shoes, ya!).
• Games to beat boredom and keep that tail wagging.

Training adult dogs isn't magic, but with time, you’ll see that raaja beta (good boy) emerge, and your bond just gets stronger.
