Puppy Socialisation

Our puppy socialisation runs over 4 weeks and focus on socialising your puppy – although we prefer the term stress inoculation. Puppies get to socialise with each other in a safe environment to learn vital social skills. Educating owners about how to raise the perfect puppy and how to overcome common puppy problems.

For any age dog. This course will give you all of the essentials your dog needs. You will learn how to build a bond and motivate your dog  response to name, as well as responding to all family members and attention exercises. You will also learn stay, loose lead walking, reliable recall, leave it/ food refusal, settle on your bed,, meeting people and dogs nicely, Settle Down – very handy with an excitable dog. 

In this class we take all of the training to the next level carefully adding distance, duration and distractions to make your training even more reliable. We work on owner focus, better loose lead walking, the all important emergency stop, distance control. We also throw in a few tricks and some scentwork!

We also offer a range of outdoor workshops and social walks which we recommend that you attend to help your dog generalise the training to the places which really matter!

One to One training

We can come to your home, workplace or local walking area to help you tackle your problems head on and give you the training advice you need to solve these problems. We can come to almost any location that you are experiencing problems in.

Behaviour Counselling

If you are having difficulties with your dog that is more than just them being a bit naughty then you may need behavioural counselling. This is more in depth than just a jumping up or lead pulling problem. If your dog is lunging and barking at people of dogs with the intent to hurt them, biting other people or dogs, has separation anxiety or is fearful, then this is the option for you!
