Services

Lois-K9 behaviour coach offers a number of services, offering a unique approach to working through struggles that canine guardians may be facing to bring about a more harmonious partnership with their canine teachers. 

Utilising modern and ethical training practises with wellness for both the canine and human end of the lead. For those called to go deeper into their journey we delve into the realms of energetics. 

Ideal for getting right into the root of the issue. 

If you are looking for out the box thinking to take you on a journey to reach that dream destination with your canine, then you have landed in the right place.

Reconnect. Rebalance. Recharge

My main signature offering of a 1-1 programme designed to empower the canine guardian whilst growing the skill set needed to take your canine teacher on the life-time journey. 

This programme utilises my unique approach to working with canine guardians using the latet behaviour modification practises, with wellness protocls and for those that would like to explore the option, looking at the energetic level as well. 

If you are ready to explore outside the box and reconnect with not only yourself but your canine guardian as well then this could well be the programme for you. 

**Please note I don't offer quick fixes, and only use ethical training methods through choice, kindness and building a trust based partnership.**

crystal ball and crystals. Spiritual work

Spiritual & Energetic work

We live in a very disconnected world, of which our animal guardians often land in our path to show us that there is far more going on then what we experience on a day to day basis. 

As a spiritual medium and being able to communicate with spirit sinc a child, I finally embraced this gift fully last year and as I continue to grow, I am called to offer such work to those that wish to go deeper. 

This work can be combined with other services or be used as a stand alone 

Currently offering Animal communication sessions, human guidance readings and body scans with spiritual healing.

Animal botanical self healing

Applied Zoopharmacognosy is a fascinating topic and one that can open so many doors as a way to understand our animal guardians that bit better. 

Animals still have the ability to self-heal utilising plants as their medicine, we have just taken it that bit further and offer plants in many different forms to support the animals through a self-healing journey. 

This is an in-person session working purely at the animal pace and is fascinating to see them choose what they need to support their own healing. 

**At the moment I am taking on case-studies only, which is cost of products and travel costs.**

Mentoring options

Sometimes as canine guardians or as a professional in the industry we feel like we need a level of support but not necessarily a programme. 

Someone to run through training ideas with, offer tweaks and support on a day-to-day basis rather then being left to our own devices. 

Maybe you just want someone to be in your corner to support the journey you are on. 

This is a monthly service all done over What's app, its like having a coach or cheerleader in your pocket for daily feedback.

 

It of course would not be one of my offerings if I didn't throw in some quirky options and so it will combine mindset drops and optional canine oracle card guidance too.  

About 

My Name is Lois Hetherington

I am a holistic canine behaviour coach, holding a degree in Animal behaviour and welfare (BSc) and went on a further journey to work predominantly in the field of all things canine! I am also a Pro Dog Trainer having completed the AbsoluteDogs programme. 

My special interests are Reactivity, resource guarding and all things puppy development.

Now what stands me out from others and makes me that little bit different? Well I am also a spiritual medium, animal communicator and into all things energetics and this is certainly the path that is calling me home.

How do the 2 work together?

Well more often than not many of the cases I work with behaviour is just surface level. Your canine guardian is making you aware of an imbalance in your relationship with not only them but in some cases highlighting those deep rooted niggles that lie under the surface in yourself.

Of course there is always exception to this however I am a firm believer that your canine guardian has come into your life at this moment in time to bring their own wisdom and medicine to your journey.

Why do I think this?

We are all connected on a conscious level and this is a journey I am walking with my own canine guardians and my heart dog that threw me onto this path in the first place. Yani.

Many of my clients come to me because I think outside the box. Because other avenues haven’t worked or they haven’t found the answers they were looking for.

I am different, I am quirky, and I will take you on a healing journey like no other.

So that’s me in a nutshell.

I can't thank Lois enough for the help she has given me and my husband with our 2 boys. We first went to Lois after we'd had a dog trainer out about our oldest dogs guarding behaviour. The suggestions made by the first trainer did not sit right with me and weren't positive based training methods. Even by following some of these tips my dogs behaviour started to escalate. This is when I got in touch with Lois. Lois did an initial 30 minute call to get more information, and even in that call, Lois gave me more information about my dogs background and potential reasons for the behaviour than I had ever had before. Following this we signed up for 6 sessions and in that time the suggestions and games have made so much improvement to my dogs behaviour. Lois helped us realise that a lot of his behaviour was anxiety driven, as he was reactive to dogs and people on walks, one suggestion was to not walk him everday which has been an absolute game changer and saw some of his behaviour change overnight. There were games to help with his confidence building and impulse control which has seen him now being able to go on a walk and not get distracted or react to much at all, and his guarding behaviour has now stopped. Genuinely can't thank Lois enough, not just for the help with behaviour but the way in which she helps. She is very understanding, non judgemental, and explains things in a way that makes sense to us. I would highly recommend Lois to anyone. Thank you so much again Lois xxx"
