So, you welcomed a chihuahua into your life?
Chihuahua's are full of fun...
Chihuahuas are awesome little dogs, full of attitude, fun, and super loyal. Being compact, they fit right into apartment living. They don’t take up lots of space and don’t cost a bomb to feed. What’s not to love…right?
When you got your chihuahua you had a dream of how life would be. Fun walks with your spunky, cute chihuahua—a loyal companion at home.
Is this your reality?
But the reality of owning a chihuahua can be very different!
While we love their spunky personality and chutzpah, chihuahuas can be a handful. They can develop behaviours such as constant trigger barking, aggressive meltdowns at other dogs, biting hands and ankles, separation anxiety, and resource guarding.
Walks become a stressful, embarrassing nightmare. Visitors and family members get snapped at and bitten.
At home, you’re trying to manage crazy trigger barking episodes whenever there’s an outside noise.
Your dream of enjoying fun walks with your chihuahua is out the window, and slowly, the whole house revolves around chihuahua behavior.
Rekindle your deam!
Can you imagine calm walks with your chihuahua, no crazy chihuahua barking at other dogs, enjoyable walks on the beach, or taking your chihuahua when you meet friends for coffee?
Or being on a work call and not worrying about your chihuahua launching into a barking meltdown because a car door slammed outside?
Would you like a confident chihuahua who can take on activities like agility, scenting, or working as a therapy dog?
We can fix this!
Hi, I am Louise, a Professional Dog Trainer and Nutrition & Behaviour Coach. I live in beautiful Dorset, UK, with my partner and our crew of five chihuahuas.
I love and train all breeds, but I specialise in chihuahua rehabilitation and behaviour.
I know finding a training style that works for chihuahuas can be difficult. Chihuahuas don’t respond well to the common ideas and methods people have about dog training. If you've taken them to classes, you'll know what I mean!
To help you achieve your dog-owning dream, I have developed the online programme Chihuahua School.
Rebuild your bond with your chihuahua!
A training style that pays right into your chihuahua’s intelligence and sense of fun.
I developed Chihuahua School because it can be difficult to reach Chihuahua owners with good advice. I want to share the secrets of this amazing training method with owners like you—people who love their dogs and want them to reach their full potential.
'Concept training' (games-based) pays right into a chihuahua’s intelligence, sense of fun and adventure.
It’s 100% force-free, and you don’t need expensive equipment or lots of space to get results.
Who am I to give you advice?
I have extensively studied dog training and dog behaviour (they're not the same thing) and am proud to be a Professional Dog Trainer and behaviour Coach.
I work with many fear-aggressive and traumatised dogs, helping them rebalance their relationship with the world to be happy and confident.
I have written extensively about chihuahuas and have helped owners worldwide with their chihuahua's behaviour.
I can do the same for you!
