Classes
Whether you're welcoming a new puppy, looking to enjoy calmer walks, or wanting to have some fun learning new skills together, my training classes are designed to help you and your dog build a stronger partnership in a relaxed and supportive environment.
Just like my one-to-one training, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. Every dog learns differently, so I take the time to support each dog and owner within the class, ensuring everyone can progress at their own pace. My classes are fun, engaging and focused on building confidence using safe, kind, pain and fear-free training methods that create lasting results.
Puppy & socialisation classes
My 6-week puppy course is for young pups aged up to 20 weeks, emphasising the significance of appropriate socialisation and teaching practical real-life skills while ensuring the learning remains fun. These classes are deliberately kept small to ensure that each puppy receives dedicated, individual attention - understanding the importance of these early interactions in helping your puppy develop into a well-rounded and confident pup.
As part of our commitment to your puppy's growth, I provide weekly PDF handouts, a special goodie package for your pup and a graduation certificate along with a Rosette.

A positive & reward-based approach to training
As much as we think our dogs will just grow out of pulling on the lead, barking at other dogs and not coming back when called. The reality is they won’t and it's our job to help them overcome this. Training covers essential aspects like:
​
-
Loose lead walking
-
Recall
-
Sit down & stay
-
Leave it
-
Diet & nutrition
-
Fun gun dog session
-
