Which areas does Muttamorphosis cover?
We offer private training and behaviour modification covering a 20 mile radius around Newcastle. In all cases, dogs are seen in their own homes or surrounding areas.
How does a one-to-one consultation work?
Private training and behaviour modification appointment take place Mon-Fri, with 4 available appointments each day, 9.30am, 11.30am, 2.30pm and 4.30pm. Appointments are often booked up to a fortnight in advance. Training sessions take place in the client’s home, or surrounds, depending on the challenges you are having with your dog. A questionnaire will be sent to you for completion prior to the first meeting.
Each session lasts 45mins. A tailored written training report is emailed to clients following the meeting. There is an option of block booking 4 sessions, at the reduced rate. Many clients find this helpful, as they are working week by week to notice the change in their dog’s behaviour. Appointments are confirmed on receipt of payment in advance, to avoid last minute cancellations.
The first consultation normally consists of a full assessment of your dog, and setting some foundation training in place. Owners then work with their dogs for a couple of weeks, until subsequent sessions are arranged. Follow-up visits usually involve an opportunity to see the dog and owner practicing their new training routine whether outdoors in the park, or in the home environment.
Sue has several dogs which are used to help with training as a distraction for your dog and in dog/dog aggression cases. Please see the Testimonial page, or look at google reviews to hear how Muttamorphosis has helped dog owners across the North East improve their relationship with their dog.
What is the best age to start puppy training?
Muttamorphosis Dog Training & Behaviour recommends that puppy training can start as soon as your bring your puppy home. Some clients even like to book in a training session in advance of this to ensure they are fully prepared from the start.
I would love to give a rescue dog a home, where do I start looking?
Muttamorphosis offers a free service, to talk through by phone any questions you may have about finding a suitable rescue dog for your family. There are so many reasons why dogs end up in rescue looking for a new family. Most of them are not the fault of the dog. When you begin your search looking for a rescue dog, have a clear list which describes the perfect dog for your family. What age and size of dog would you consider? Remember an older dog will generally cause less trouble, be less destructive and will often settle quicker. Ideally you should look for a dog whose history is known to the sanctuary or who has lived in a foster home so that he/she will suit your family.
Most good dog rescues fully assess a dog before allowing it to be rehomed. Do you have other pets to consider? What is your lifestyle like and how much time do you have to give to your new companion? Are you planning a family in the near future? Be prepared to have a home check; members of the rescue will come to your home and assess that the environment suits the dog you have chosen, that you have a suitably high garden fence and the whole family is behind the decision to get a dog. Finally consider dog training for your new companion where you can clearly train your house rules in a kind and rewarding way and help your dog to bond with you through fun games. Remember, your new dog will need time to adjust to his new life also.
