1-2-1 Training Sessions

At Evolution K9, our 1-2-1 training sessions are designed to give you and your dog focused, personalised support tailored to your individual needs. Every dog is different, and every owner faces their own unique challenges, which is why private training can be one of the most effective ways to create lasting change.

Each session lasts 90 minutes, giving you dedicated time to work through your dog’s behaviour and training needs in a calm, structured, and supportive way.

Using the NeMo® method, our approach is built around clear, honest communication through the leash. With no treats, no toys, and no distractions from the real goal, we help dogs learn to understand guidance, build trust in their handler, and develop calmer, more balanced behaviour. Our aim is not just to teach commands, but to create a stronger relationship between you and your dog based on structure, clarity, and mutual understanding.

Whether your dog needs help with pulling on the lead, poor recall, reactivity, over-excitement, lack of boundaries, or general obedience, these one-to-one sessions provide a practical and effective way to work through problems at a pace that suits both dog and owner.

Choose the right session type for your dog

Home Visit

Our Home Visit sessions take place in your dog’s own environment, allowing us to work on behaviour where it naturally happens most. This is ideal for dogs who struggle with issues inside the home, in the garden, at the front door, or in their immediate local area. It also gives us the opportunity to see the routines, triggers, and patterns that may be affecting your dog’s behaviour so we can provide guidance that is realistic, relevant, and tailored to daily life.

A Home Visit may be especially helpful for:

• Reactivity around the home or on local walks
• Boundary setting and household manners
• Visitors, door behaviour, and over-excitement
• Nervous or anxious dogs who may benefit from starting in familiar surroundings
• Owners who want practical support in their usual routine

Meet Up Session

Our Meet Up sessions take place in a neutral, agreed location and are ideal for dogs who need help working around real-world distractions. These sessions are perfect for building calmness, engagement, lead manners, and obedience in everyday environments. Training in a neutral setting can also help dogs become more socially stable and responsive outside of the home, where many behavioural issues are more noticeable.

A Meet Up session may be especially helpful for:

• Loose lead walking and engagement outdoors
• Recall and general obedience in distracting environments
• Social confidence around people, dogs, and new surroundings
• Reactivity rehabilitation in controlled real-world settings
• Owners who want to improve handling skills out on walks

What to expect

Each 90-minute 1-2-1 session is tailored to your dog, your goals, and your current challenges. We take the time to understand what is happening, why it is happening, and how to begin changing it with clear, consistent guidance. You’ll learn how to handle your dog properly using NeMo cues, when to apply them, and how to build better behaviours that your dog can truly understand.

Our sessions are designed to help you:

• Improve obedience and responsiveness
• Build calmer, more balanced behaviour
• Strengthen trust, respect, and communication
• Understand your dog more clearly
• Gain confidence as a handler

This is not a one-size-fits-all approach. We believe every dog can be helped, and we are committed to giving both you and your dog the support needed to move forward with confidence.

Who these sessions are for

Our 1-2-1 training is suitable for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments, whether you are starting from scratch or trying to overcome more complex behavioural challenges. From young dogs needing structure and direction, to older dogs with established habits, private sessions allow us to meet your dog where they are and work toward real progress.
