Dog behaviourist in Alicante
Alicante is seventy-five minutes from Jávea. A consultation at your home is possible, with roughly € 112.50 travel surcharge. At this distance I would rather start with a remote consultation.

Wat ik in Alicante het vaakst zie
In a city like Alicante almost every behaviour problem becomes visible out on the street, because indoors there is no room to show it. Flats, entrance halls, lifts, narrow pavements along busy roads. A dog who struggles with other dogs meets ten of them a day at a distance that is far too small.
Walks here are often short and at fixed times, squeezed in around work. That produces dogs who cannot get rid of enough and so never settle at home, and owners who have no time to turn every walk into a training session. I take that into account in what I give you.
The traffic, the buses and the noise mean an insecure dog can never really relax. Organising safety comes before training here.
What people come to me with
What it costs from Jávea

What fits your situation?
Four questions. You will not get a price list back, you will get what I would do if you rang me now, and what the first step costs.
What makes it shorter
- It has not been going on for months
- You can practise ten minutes a day
- Everyone in the house does the same
- Your dog is young and nothing is stuck yet
What makes it longer
- It has been there for years
- There has already been a bite
- At home everyone does it slightly differently
- Your dog came off the street and the history is unknown
- Pain or illness plays a part
Why I do not quote a total price
I do not know how many appointments your dog needs before I have seen them. That depends on how long it has been going on, on what has already been tried, on who at home takes part, and on what your dog has been through.
Anybody who gives you a number up front is selling you a figure, not an approach. What I can do: tell you exactly what one appointment costs, and after that appointment tell you honestly what else is needed. Even if that means you do not need to buy anything more from me.
Travel costs per visit, from Jávea to you
This is how it is worked out. The starting point is the centre of Jávea. Of the total travel time there and back, the first hour is included in the fee. Anything beyond that costs € 75 per hour, pro rata per minute. For example: Valencia is an 80 minute drive, so 160 minutes there and back. Of that, 60 minutes are included in the fee, and the remaining 100 minutes come to € 125. That amount is fixed in advance, so you know it before I get in the car.

Vragen uit Alicante
A hundred and twelve euros in travel costs is a lot.
That is true, which is why I say so honestly in advance. Start with a remote consultation at € 60, then we decide whether a visit is worth it or whether your dog is better off coming to Jávea.
Can it be done entirely remotely?
Often yes. Video of the situation shows me a lot, and what I cannot see I ask about. That costs € 60 per half hour.
