🐾 Puppy Training and Socialisation Classes

🐾 Puppy Training Classes

Kind, effective training to give your puppy the very best start.

If you’re looking for friendly, professional puppy classes that are fun and use only reward-based training, then you’re in the right place. Our 6-week course is carefully designed to help your puppy grow into a confident, well-behaved dog using kind, science-led methods.

In fact, we’ve been running classes for over 8 years, and during that time we’ve supported hundreds of new puppy owners through those all-important early weeks.

These classes are suitable for puppies from around 13 weeks upto 22 weeks old at the start of the course. Because of this early window, our sessions offer the perfect balance of training and socialisation. Whether you’re a first-time owner or simply need a refresher, we’re here to help you build a strong, positive relationship with your pup.

Our next training classes with availability start on Saturday July 25th or Sunday August 2nd, please click the link below to book your spot.
