As you can imagine, every consultation I do is different, but I think it is good to have a bit of an understanding as to how they work so that you can relax.
Typically we will have had a conversation on the phone first so that we can establish the headlines of the issues you are facing and decide what appointment is the most appropriate. There are a few options:
I might ask you to keep a diary, do some short videos and send to me or have for me when I arrive, a vet check to ensure we have a clean bill of health, a lot of incidents, and so on. On occasion I might send through some videos for you to look at prior to our appointment.
We will decide on details for my arrival. Everything from where I park to how your dog might behave when I come in can be discussed beforehand. Sometimes I might ask for your dog to be in another space when I come in, or on lead, or behind a kiddy gate. This may simply be so that I can get in without being mugged.
You will be sent details about where to come and what to bring. You drive in and park up, your dog stays in the car until you see me and we will decide on protocols for getting your dog out. We will discuss the fencing and gates so that you can risk assess whether you feel comfortable letting your dog off lead or on a long line.
This is where a home visit is not appropriate, and you are not able or is it not suitable for you to come to me. For example we might meet at a private field and the same sorts of protocols will apply as when you come to me.
1 to 1s can be a really great way of honing down on your specific challenges and can be great for dogs or people who don’t like classes.
