Dog Training Services
At Lil Luka Dog Walks, we offer gentle, one-on-one training designed to support dogs of all ages and temperaments. From foundational puppy cues like sit, stay, and recall, to leash manners, socialisation, and behaviour support for older dogs, each session is customised to your dog’s pace and personality. Using positive reinforcement, we build trust, confidence, and lifelong skills—helping your dog thrive at every stage of life.
Basic Puppy Handling
Build the foundations for a happy, well-mannered pup. This session is perfect for puppies under 6 months who are just starting out. We focus on gentle, positive reinforcement to help your pup learn:
-
Name recognition – responding reliably when called
-
Sit, stay, and down – basic cues for calm behaviour
-
Recall – coming when called, even with distractions
-
Focus and engagement – learning to tune in to you
-
Handling and grooming prep – getting comfortable with touch
-
Confidence building – exposure to new sights, sounds, and surfaces
Each session is tailored to your puppy’s pace, with plenty of praise, play, and rest breaks. We’ll also share tips to support consistency at home.

Leash Manners
Turn walks into calm, connected adventures. Ideal for puppies or young dogs who pull, zigzag, or get distracted on walks. This session helps your pup learn:
-
Loose-leash walking – staying beside you without pulling
-
Stop and wait – pausing calmly at curbs or distractions
-
Focus on handler – checking in and walking as a team
-
Polite greetings – avoiding jumping or lunging at people or dogs
-
Managing excitement – staying calm around triggers like bikes or birds
We use kind, reward-based techniques to build trust and responsiveness. You’ll also get practical tips for reinforcing good habits between walks.
