Shelley uses Mindfulness which enables your animal to learn to relax & reset over reactive or anxious behaviours in a lasting way.
She then teaches you the human how to do this too.
What happens when I book a consultation with Do Little Be More?
- Shelley will then call you to chat through your situation with your Animal, explain her methods of working and book a time to visit you in the comfort of your Animal's home. This may be your home or field or livery yard etc.
- The date and time will be confirmed by email along with information to help you to prepare for the session and enhance the experience for you and your Animal.
The Consultation is in 2 sessions approx one week apart. Each session lasts approximately an hour and a half.
In the first session, Shelley will:
- Assess the environment to check that it is safe and conducive for the successful use of the Trust Technique® and if it is;
- Demonstrate The Trust Technique® with your animal.
- Discuss the impact the technique has had on your animal.
- Teach you how to use the technique.
- Observe you conducting the Trust Technique® with your animal, providing you with feedback and support.
- Leave you with some exercises to practice before the next session.
The follow up visit will be approximately one week later and is included in the price.
During this session, Shelley will:
- Answer any questions & discuss any changes in behaviour or wellbeing of your animal.
- Work with your animal.
- Review your use of the Technique so you feel confident using this method..
By now you will be recognising the benefits of this way of teaching your animal.
You will have learned how to be there for them, as they begin to self regulate their behaviours in a positive & cooperative way.
You will be starting to fully enjoy your time together, rather than trying to control unwanted & stressful behaviours.
If more input is required, Shelley will then recommend an individual programme of one to one sessions, tailor made to suit you and your animal.
These sessions may take place either at their home or out and about on dog walks or rides etc. wherever most needed.
If your premises is too far away Shelley also specialises in online consultations. Check out my pricing page for more details or get in touch.
