Welcoming a new puppy into your home is exciting, rewarding, and sometimes overwhelming.

My puppy home visits are designed to help you build a calm, confident, and happy relationship with your puppy from the very beginning — using ethical, science-based training methods that are kind, practical, and tailored to real family life.

I’m Jo, a science based and ethical dog trainer working across Newtown, Powys, and surrounding areas, offering supportive one-to-one puppy visits in the comfort of your own home. Gentle Guidance for the Early Puppy Months
The first few months of a puppy’s life are a critical learning period. During this time, puppies are developing social skills, confidence, habits, and emotional responses that can last a lifetime.

Home visits allow us to work together in the environment where your puppy actually lives and learns. This means training can be practical, personalised, and immediately useful for everyday life.

Together, we can work on:

• Toilet training
• Puppy biting and chewing
• Settling calmly at home
• Sleep routines
• Preventing jumping up
• Lead and harness introduction
• Recall foundations
• Confidence building
• Socialisation guidance
• Preventing separation-related issues
• Children and puppy interactions
• Multi-dog household introductions
• Building focus and engagement
• Reward-based training foundations

Every puppy is an individual, and sessions are adapted to suit your puppy’s personality, breed traits, age, and your family’s lifestyle.

Ethical & Science-Based Training
My approach is rooted in modern behavioural science and positive reinforcement training.

I focus on teaching puppies what to do through clear communication, rewards, consistency, and understanding canine behaviour.

Training should strengthen your relationship with your puppy — not damage trust.

I aim to help guardians feel confident, informed, and supported while raising a well-adjusted companion. Why Choose Home Visits?
Many puppies learn best in familiar surroundings before facing the distractions of busy public environments.
Home visits can be especially helpful for:

• Nervous or sensitive puppies
• Busy households
• Families with children
• First-time puppy guardians
• Puppies not yet fully vaccinated
• Owners wanting personalised guidance
• Preventing unwanted behaviours before they become established

Because sessions happen in your own home, we can work on real-life situations using your puppy’s normal routines, spaces, and equipment. If you are unsure whether I cover your area, please get in touch for a FREE discovery call What to Expect
Each visit is relaxed, supportive, and judgement-free.
You’ll receive practical coaching, step-by-step guidance, and realistic strategies that fit into daily life. My goal is not perfection — it’s helping you and your puppy succeed together in a way that feels achievable and enjoyable.
Following sessions, you may also receive:

• Written training notes
• Management strategies
• Enrichment ideas
• Recommended products
• Ongoing support between visits (if included)

Early support can make a huge difference to your puppy’s future behaviour and wellbeing.
