Practical Puppies

Our 6 week training course that aims to teach you and your pup the practical skills they need to be happy, confident and well balanced!

This course has been curated and designed by our head trainer, Carol, to work on the skills we believe will help your pup in the real world!

For our in person course, the first week is always a settling in session, with a Q&A from our training team to go over any questions you have about dog ownership including accessories and equipment. We let the pups settle in the new environment and socialise in a safe way, overseen by our team. Our online course offers a 15 minute phone call with our head trainer to go over any questions about puppy ownership as well as training guides and resources for each lesson in the course.

See below for the skills we work on, and believe have real life value!

Proximity

nearness in time, space or relationship

Building your dog's value for being near you will create a more consistent recall, stronger relationship and better loose lead walking!

Confidence

having no doubt in their abilities

A confident dog is a happy dog! Whether it's at the vets, the groomers or just out and about! Confidence will also help with socialisation and separation anxiety (and agility if you decide you want to give it a try!)

Focus

concentration and engagement with you over other stimuli

Making sure your dog will choose you over anything else on offer, whether it's food manners, other dogs, traffic, people running etc
