Making Puppy Training Simple!
Our passion is helping you to learn how to have a successful relationship with your puppy and together we will develop them into being a happy member of your family. We like to keep things simple and show you how to train your puppy to integrate into your life. We’ll listen to your needs and tailor our approach accordingly to ensure lasting success. We’re not rigid in how we do things and will explain everything simply and clearly to you to ensure you can successfully continue training your puppy into the future. We rely on modern dog training techniques that are based around positive reinforcement and dog welfare is paramount in everything we do.
Benefits of training your puppy
Puppy biting, jumping up, pulling on the lead, barking, separation anxiety etc. are all things that can make your life with a puppy very challenging. The good news is that with our help we can train your puppy to learn positive behaviour to replace the behaviours not compatible with a happy life together. A trained puppy is a happy puppy, having a happy puppy makes for a happy owner. The key is that it’s easier than you think. Working with us we can show you useful techniques that you’ll find simple to carry on after our sessions are completed. Training can be started at any age, the sooner the better. You can start simple training with your puppy as soon as they are settled into their new home. Done properly, training will be fun, both for you and your puppy, as well as exercising their brain and reinforcing the good relationship between you.
How can we help?
We have a range of different training services that are geared around being flexible to your requirements while having the structure and content to deliver results. We specialise in training young dogs and helping their owners but we're very happy to discuss how we can help with older dogs too. If our pre-designed courses aren't quite what you need, please contact us and we'll put something together specific for your requirements.
