Dog Training

Different dog training options are available for you and your pet that are both challenging and enjoyable.

Our dog trainers each have over 40 years' training experience and provide an exceptional service.

We pride ourselves in being able to give each individual owner and dog personal and practical application of any training needs. We are always open to new ideas and will research and develop new methods to ensure we remain the region's leading trainers.

Our approach

What to bring

Bring something your dog loves. This can include soft treats (such as ham or luncheon), or a toy they absolutely love that will motivate them to work hard for their reward.

We use clicker training to assist you to easily teach your dog to ensure that both you and your dog get the most out of the learning.  If you do not wish to use a clicker then we can still teach you using the methodology  – even the non-enthusiastic dogs become enthusiastic to learn using our methods!

Our experienced trainers teach using positive reinforcement methods which have been proven to be the most effective way of teaching. This method encourages rewarding your dog’s good behaviour and ignoring undesired behaviour, rather than punishing undesired behaviour.

Positive reinforcement methods, such as rewards, as we want any behaviour change or training learned to have solid and lasting effect while keeping the trusting relationship between owner and dog whole. Rewards are anything that encourage your dog to repeat a behaviour.

​

When sharing our knowledge and helping you with your dog's training we take care to ensure that your lifestyle is considered so that any changes that may be needed are as minimal as possible in order to achieve the result you desire. All our training is explained in non-technical terminology so that it is easier for everyone to understand and put into practice.
