A specialised desensitisation program to help dogs feel safe, calm, and cooperative with handling, grooming, and routine care.

Does your dog shy away from nail clipping, flinch at brushing, or become stressed at the sight of grooming tools? You're not alone — many dogs struggle with being handled for routine care. That’s why we’ve created Calm for Care, a gentle and structured training package designed to build your dog’s confidence and comfort around grooming, touch, and handling.

Using positive, balanced desensitisation techniques, we work at your dog’s pace to introduce and normalise everyday care activities. Our goal isn’t just tolerance — it’s calm cooperation and lasting trust.

This package is perfect for dogs who:
✔️ Fear or resist nail trims, brushing, or ear/eye cleaning
✔️ Become wiggly or anxious during vet or groomer visits
✔️ Need extra support in learning how to stay calm when touched or handled
✔️ Are young and need a solid foundation in grooming confidence

What’s included:

• 5 tailored training sessions focused on touch desensitisation and grooming comfort
• Gradual introduction to tools like clippers, brushes, nail trimmers, towels, and more
• Training around body handling (paws, ears, muzzle, tail, etc.)
• Strategies to help your dog stay calm, engaged, and relaxed
• Guidance for you on how to continue the training at home or with your groomer

Whether you're preparing your puppy for a lifetime of stress-free care or helping an older dog overcome a fear, Calm for Care is all about creating positive associations and building trust.

Because grooming shouldn’t be scary — and care should feel like comfort.
