Dog Training Classes

Getting a new puppy is exciting but can also be hard work. Our Puppy Foundation classes give you all the information and tools you will need to navigate some common puppy-problems and start their training out in the right way. We focus on building a strong relationship with your pup from the beginning and creating a great foundation for future training.

These classes are suitable for puppies aged up to 6mths. You will receive a copy of my puppy training guide to assist you through the course and beyond, and a certificate of completion.

What will we work on?

- Focus around other dogs

- Building confidence

- Improving your dog-human relationship

So, your cute tiny puppy has turned into a terrible teen... Suddenly they're behaving like a hooligan and you're tearing your hair out trying to figure out what to do with them - sound familiar? This course focuses on the basics of dog training & aims to help you 'ride out the storm'. We'll share our top tips and insights to guide you through arguably the trickiest developmental stage in your dog's life.

These classes are open to young dogs aged 6-18 months old and are suitable for dogs with little/no previous training experience, or those who have already attended puppy classes. You will receive a copy of my training guide to assist you through the course and beyond.

What will we work on?

- Focus around other dogs and distractions

- Progressing previous training

- Improving your dog-human relationship

These classes are great for those who enjoy the social aspect of training in a group and cover a range of topics. Our weekly Improvers classes now focus on working towards completion of The Dog Trainer School class levels 1 - 5. At the end of each 6-week block, you will have the option of taking the assessment and gaining your level certificate.

Who can attend?

Improvers classes are open to any dog who has:

- completed one of the foundation courses with us (puppy/teens)

- previously done 1-2-1 training with us (if suitable)

- previously done basic training elsewhere (if suitable)

When can I join?

These classes run weekly on Tuesday evenings throughout the year as 6-week blocks. Begin on any course start date and continue as long as you want.

What will we work on?

- Progressing exercises

- Perfecting handling techniques

- Continuing to work on focus around other dogs

Not going to plan? Don't worry, you're not alone!

Join us for our workshops focusing on these top two biggest training issues. Get the best out of your dog and take a closer look at the other end of the lead too! We've got plenty of tricks up our sleeves to gain your dog's focus using positive reinforcement reward-based training. We'll teach you how to teach your dog the art of a great recall and fabulous loose-lead walking.

We are also running some social skills workshops later this year.
