The Positive Pack
The Positive Pack aims to improve the welfare of dogs experiencing behavioural problems by providing behaviourally minded walks and training sessions in South Manchester. By applying the science of learning and positive reinforcement training behaviour is managed and resolved in an ethical manner. Aversive techniques and equipment such as prong collars and choke leads are completely avoided.
Services
Group Walk (1 hour): A maximum of 4 dogs at a time allows for each dog to have enough attention, and ensures responsible walking! Dogs will be picked up from their home, walked at a nearby park or wild space and dropped back home again. Walks will be designed to be as stimulating as possible for your dog. Basic training such as recall will be practiced during walks. Not suitable for dogs with more challenging behavioural problems as these will need 1:1 sessions.
£12.00 per dog, including pick up and drop off. Discounts available for multi-dog households.
1:1 Training Session (30 minutes): Your dog will be assessed and training plan will be created for them with regards to the specific behaviour problem. Using positive reinforcement they will work through this on a 1:1 basis.
£15.00 including report and training plans. Fuel free if within 10 miles of M19, 25p/mile thereafter.
1:1 Training Walk (1 hour): This option is ideal for a dog with behavioural issues which means they can't walk as a group, but that still need extra exercise and stimulation. Training is most effective in short bursts around 10-15 minutes long, so these will be broken up with periods of walking, exploring and investigating. It will be dog-focussed so the area and setting can be carefully selected to best meet their requirements and help them in their training.
£30.00 including full report and training plans. Fuel free if within 10 miles of M19, 25p/mile thereafter.
Private Field: Subject to availability your dog can be walked by The Positive Pack on a private field in Alderley Edge (part of The Positive Herd Project). If your dog is extremely dog or person reactive it may be beneficial to book the field for their training session or walk to ensure they don’t run into any other dogs or people.
+ £10 to session or walk (includes fuel and time for 25 mile round journey)
Please note if your dog has severe or dangerous behavioural problems that require a behaviour consultation you will be referred on to a local qualified and reputable canine behaviourist.
