Peaceful Challenge

Transform your dog's Behaviour.

Are you tired of dealing with a distracted or reactive dog? Barking, lunging, and pulling on the leash can make walks a nightmare, while household chaos and poor recall can leave you feeling hopeless. Don't worry – we've got you covered! 

Join us on this Peaceful Challenge, inspired by Absolute Dogs' world-famous Sexier than a Squirrel Challenge! From 10 March 2025, we'll spend 4 weeks transforming your pooch into the calm dog of your dreams. You know, the one who walks calmly by your side, ignores anything that’s not his business, and wants nothing more than to do things together.

Our game-based, force-free training will strengthen the bond between you and your dog, so you become their world. We will dwell into everything that is calmness and peacefulness!

Here's what you'll get as part of our Autumn Dog House Challenge:

  • An in depth look at what causes a dog to be on edge and how we can facilitate his calmness in our weekly live chat session

  • Exclusive Facebook group for the duration of the Challenge, with additional coaching, live sessions, and a supportive community of like-minded dog owners!

  • Video tutorials showing you how to play engaging 3-minute games to encourage and facilitate calmness!

  • Learn how to train your dog to choose YOU over distractions, making you the centre of their new found calm world!

  • Printable handouts to guide you through the process.

  • End of Challenge in person gathering to celebrate our achievements!

What our Hoomans have to say

  • Signed up for the winter challenge. Who said you can't teach old dogs new tricks. Foggy has really improved and We as his hoomans are able to better communicate and together we have regained our balance in life with eachother. He was always the best dog ever but now he believes it too and seems more confident and happy. Resi supported us both throughout the challenge with info, advice, guidance and friendship. Dedicated Dog lover ❤️ highly recommend The Dog 🏠 ❤️

  • We completed the Winter Challenge training with Resi at The Dog House Farm Stay. A excellent program that was flexible and able to fit into our lifestyle but had fantastic support and meet ups with Resi and the fellow participants to check in on progress and ask questions. Our pup is only young and this has been an invaluable experience creating strong bonds between us and our pup and giving us some positive tools to focus on building great foundations for him to use in everyday real life situations. There hasn't been a game he hasn't enjoyed and it has given us more confidence as dog owners especially as we come into the teenage phase. Highly recommend Resi and her challenge!

  • Resi and Vince care for our two dogs as if they were their own. To see the wagging tails as we approach their gate for drop off, is to feel confident that our dogs know they are going to enjoy their farm holiday. We know they'll get thoroughly spoilt and have lots of walks and cuddles. Can't recommend the Dog House Farm Stay more highly than that!
