Teach your dog to calmly lie on their bed when guests arrive rather than jumping all over them
Using the same 10-minutes per day Bed & Settle method I teach my private clients
The intro module and first video are available immediately after purchase, so you can start training straight away. The other videos will be released every few days through 3rd July 2026.
Does this sound familiar?
The doorbell rings and visitors arrive.
You’ve been looking forward to seeing them all week - but instead of a calm, relaxed greeting, your dog:
❌ Charges through the hallway barking
❌ Jumps all over your guests the moment they come through the door
❌ Runs around like mad while you’re making tea
❌ Can’t stop pestering your guests for attention
You’ve tried asking guests to ignore them.
You’ve tried scattering treats on the floor when you open the door.
You’ve even tried shutting them away (which makes you feel really guilty).
But these things have only helped for a short time before the crazy behaviour resumes.
There’s a good reason for this: none of these tactics teach your dog what to do. A skill you can practise until your dog can do it even when guests arrive.
They can temporarily help manage their behaviour, but they are not a solution.
The worst part is that your friends and family only see your dog’s “mad” or out-of-control side.
Of course, you know your dog isn’t a “bad dog” - they are super loving and just want to be everyone’s friend.
But the greetings are so over the top that you’ve started to dread visitors coming over.
Or have even stopped having people round as often as you’d like.
It’s completely understandable to want a solution to this behaviour. And the good news is that you don’t need to use shouting, punishment, or any technique that harms the wonderful bond you’ve built with your dog.
That’s exactly why I’ve put together the Bed & Settle Blueprint.
How would it feel if...
Instead of your dog going barmy and leaping on guests the moment they ring the doorbell…
Here's what happens instead:
You ask your dog to go “on your bed” a single time
They calmly walk over to the bed and settle into a relaxed position
You let your guests in and say hello — all while your dog stays on their bed
You make a cup of tea for your guests — your dog is still on their bed
Once your guests are settled — and only when they’re ready to greet your dog — you say the release cue
Your dog calmly greets your guests, because they haven’t built up so much adrenaline charging around the house!
This might seem like a distant dream if your dog goes berserk the moment guests arrive.
But it’s entirely possible with the right method. I've taught it to my own dogs and to countless clients' dogs - including plenty of high-energy, anxious, and easily excitable ones.
And the best part is that this cue doesn’t just help with visitors.
Once your dog knows an “on your bed” cue that holds for 20+ minutes, you can use it when:
✅ You’re cooking dinner and don’t want them scavenging or counter surfing for potentially toxic scraps
✅ You’re unpacking shopping and don’t want to trip over them
✅ You’re sitting down for dinner and don’t want them begging for food
This all comes from one simple cue. Here’s how it works.
Introducing the Bed & Settle Blueprint
The Bed & Settle Blueprint is a complete and step-by-step method for teaching your dog a rock solid “on your bed” cue with as little as 10 minutes of daily practice.
And when I say “on your bed”, I don’t mean for a split second.
I mean a cue that your dog understands as “go to your bed and relax until given the release cue” - and that holds for at least 20 minutes (even when there are distractions like guests or cooking).
Get the Bed & Settle Blueprint - £37What You Get:
The Blueprint is taught over five short videos. Each is no more than 15 minutes long and has 2-3 practice steps for you to follow with your dog.
I’ve also included specific milestones for your dog to reach before moving on, so you always know what to practice next.
Pre-Sale note: The introduction module and first video are available as soon as you join. Videos 2-5 will be released shortly after to give you time to practice with your dog (see dates below).
Introduction Module — A brief overview of how to succeed with the blueprint
Video 1 — We’ll start by teaching your dog the basic “on your bed” cue.
Video 2 — Then we’ll add duration while making sure they are in a relaxed position.
Video 3 — In this step we gradually add distance, so your dog stays on the bed wherever you are.
Video 4 — Next, we incorporate real-world activities, like opening drawers or boiling the kettle. This is an essential step for building a bed cue you can actually rely on.
Video 5 — Finally we expand to staying on the bed even when guests arrive. Your friends and family won’t believe the difference!
You’ll also get a printable “Bed & Settle” cheatsheet and two more bonuses which can be found below.

My 60-Day Money-Back Guarantee
I’m confident that your dog can achieve a rock-solid “on your bed” cue, just like many of my clients. But if you’ve worked through the blueprint and your dog still won’t settle on their bed, I’ll refund you in full with no questions asked. I’m only happy if your dog is making real progress!
When do I get access to the videos?
My dog is older / has been doing this for years. Is it too late?
I've tried other online courses and they haven't worked. What's different about this one?
What exactly will my dog learn?
Is this method force-free?
How long does it take to see results?
My dog is not food driven. Will this course work for me?
I don't want to use a lot of treats during training. Will the course work for me?
✅ Who the Bed & Settle Blueprint is for…
- Your dog gets hyperactive and jumps all over visitors when they arrive
- You can spare 10 minutes a day for focused practice
- You want a force-free method that protects and builds the bond with your dog
- You've tried scattered tips before and are looking for a step-by-step method
❌Who the Bed & Settle Blueprint is NOT for…
- You're looking for a quick fix that doesn't need daily practice
- Your dog has shown aggression towards guests or has a bite history. That needs personal behavioural support
- You don't want to use treats at all during the early learning phase
- You don't have time for a 10 minute daily training session
One last thing...
If you’ve made it this far, you know your dog isn’t acting “crazy” because something is wrong with them. They are just excited, overwhelmed, and don’t know what to do with themselves.
That’s why the Bed & Settle Blueprint is so effective. In just five short videos and ten minutes a day, you'll give your dog the skill they need to show guests the lovely dog they truly are.
The full Bed & Settle Blueprint, plus the pre-sale bonuses, with the 60-day guarantee costs just £37.
And just to be clear - both pre-sale bonuses are available until 21st June. The personal video feedback from me is limited to the first 20 buyers. After that the Blueprint stays available, just without those two extras.
Get the Bed & Settle Blueprint — £37Happy training,
Rebecca
P.S. If you're still on the fence, the 60-day guarantee covers you fully. Work through the videos, practise with your dog, and if they can’t settle on their bed just email me and I'll refund you in full.
