Focus & Function: Real-Life Reactivity Training

This isn’t just another obedience class.
Focus & Function is a series of real-life training sessions built to help dogs and their people build skills where it actually matters—out in the world.

These small-group coaching sessions focus on practising reactivity skills in structured, real-world setups. Think engagement, movement, threshold work, and working around distractions in a way that actually makes sense for your dog.

Each week has a general focus, but sessions are flexible. You’ll get live coaching based on what your dog needs in the moment.

We keep things low-pressure and spaced out, with short rotations and real-time feedback throughout.

Who is this for?

These sessions are a good fit if you:

Have a reactive or sensitive dog and want to practise in a safe setup
Need structured exposure with space and clear pacing
Want support between private sessions
Are working on confidence, focus, and real-life leash skills

What is this NOT?

Not a free-for-all or play session
Not an off-leash group
Not a drop-in for dogs I haven’t worked with

Do I need to be a client first?

Yes. These sessions are for current clients or dogs I’ve previously worked with.

If we haven’t worked together yet, start with a Starter Session so I can assess your dog and set things up properly.

How are sessions structured?

Max 4-5 dogs per session
60 minutes (includes setup + debrief)
Rotations with space between dogs
Real-time coaching throughout

Where are they held?

From Midland to Port Severn and everywhere in between. Locations vary week to week and are planned in advance.
