Lucky’s Paws
Services

Adult Dog 1-1
1 to 1 sessions are most of my work and cover an enormous range of areas; from reactivity and aggression to recall and loose lead work, and everything in between.
My session length and costs are:
£595 (up to 30 mins travel from HD8) for 3 sessions. Additional travel cost for over 30 mins away.
- Session 1 is 2-3 hours.
- Session 2 is 2 hours.
- Session 3 is 2 hours.
My sessions are in a pack so that I can give you and your dog the in-depth level of care and support needed to make behavioural changes.
Within this package I ask for regular updates via WhatsApp so I can ensure you are on the right track and things can be tweaked. I encourage as many updates as possible, so you are as successful and supported as possible. Generally, session 1 and 2 are 2 weeks apart and 2 and 3 are 4-6 weeks apart.
One off session is £250 for 2-3 hours.
The package has regular check ins, and I will set homework for you to complete between sessions. Once your dog has started sessions, you will be added into my client WhatsApp group to arrange meet ups with like minded owners. In addition to this, once assessed as being ready you can attend my official client pack walks.
To book in or enquire further please contact me.
Puppy 1-1
This package is for people looking to set their new puppy up for ultimate success!
My session length and costs are:
£475 (up to 30 mins travel from my home address in HD8) for 3 sessions. Additional travel cost for over 30 mins away.
- Session 1 is 2 hours.
- Session 2 is 1.5 hours.
- Session 3 is 1.5 hours.
My sessions are in a pack so that I can give you and your pup the in-depth level of care and support needed to make behavioural changes or simply to ensure your canine companion starts on the right track to become a well-balanced, well trained, and happy dog. It is incredibly beneficial to book in with a trainer prior to any behavioural issues so the younger you start training your dog, the better.
Within this package I ask for regular updates via WhatsApp so I can ensure you are on the right track and between sessions things can be tweaked. Generally, the sessions Are 2 weeks apart and then session 2 and 3 between 4-6 weeks apart.
If you wanted a one-off session, these are £175 for 2 hours.
The package has regular check ins, and I will set homework for you to complete between sessions to help your progress. Once your dog has started sessions, you will be added into my client WhatsApp group to arrange meet ups with likeminded owners. In addition to this, once assessed as being ready you can attend my official client pack walks.
To book in or enquire further please contact me.
Note: for any puppy who is displaying behavioural issues such as reactivity, aggression, resource guarding or separation anxiety, we will charge adult pricing as the length of the sessions are longer and the input from your trainer is much greater.
Puppy Group Classes
Set your puppy up for success!
Puppy classes are open to dogs under 6 months old and are based in Skelmanthorpe, Huddersfield. The aim of these classes is to set some solid foundations for your dog across a complete range of commands and behaviours and teach them how to behave in the presence of distractions, such as other dogs and people. Some of the basic commands and training we work through are:

- A solid marker system
- Recall
- Loose lead work and the heel command
- Leave and Drop
- Eye contact work
- Settle command
- How to effectively use toys and food in your training
- Commands that useful at the vets/groomers such as stand, chin and how to desensitise to vet checks and nail trims.
- As well as some fun commands too
Once you have booked in you will be added to a WhatsApp group with the other class attendees and all videos taken in class will be added for you to check back on.

Client Pack Walks
Once your dog has started 1 to 1 training with Lucky’s Paws, you will be keen to practice what you learn in a real life setting with other, like minded owners. This is where the client pack walks can help. Held in a variety of locations, the walks allow you to work towards your goals with my support whether that be heel work, recall, engagement or working through dog and human reactivity.
These are arranged through my client WhatsApp group and are only open to clients that have been signed off as ready to take part.
Structured Dog Walking
For those who want to ensure their dog’s training plan is being consistently met by their dog walker with loose lead work, handler engagement, recall and reactivity work top of the priority list. These walks start on a 1 to 1 basis until your dog is assessed as being ready to join one of the structured, small pack walks (maximum four neutral dogs on these walks).
These walks focus on training, neutrality, teaching calm and correct exposure and socialisation to other dogs and people. The priority is ensuring that all training plans in place are followed to get owners and dogs to their goals quicker.
Lucky’s Paws clients have priority, but this service is also open to those who want to work further on training their dogs.
Our team includes Emily, Holly and Sarah.
