Mutleys Dog Training

14/11/2025

It’s Friday and the weather has messed up my outside classes but mabel and I still embraced the rain today and headed out, once out and muddy we might as well stay out for a good run! We did some memory retrieves which she loved and lots of splashing in puddles together!
Let’s see some pics from your muddy walks today!!!!! Attach in the comments!!!!!

Today is a really special day! It’s Mutleys 20th anniversary! 20 years ago today I ran my first puppy class in my hall in Clifton with just three little pups! We quickly grew to two full nights a week, then new locations and franchises. It’s been the most rewarding job and I wouldn’t change a thing. I’ve made amazing friends, I’ve run on a lot of recommendations and a lot of returning clients! One of those very first clients in that first puppy class is still with me today with his new dogs!
Thank you all for recommending Mutleys and coming back again and again!
🎉🎉🥳🍾🍾🥂🥂

Just wanted to give a big hello and well done to my new puppy class who had to hide under the trees this morning! Not the best weather but we got through all the exercises and got a lovely photo of everyone too! Great bunch of gorgeous dogs! See you next week 😀

Please can you as my clients please this petition. As dog trainers we are being given four weeks notice to get a licence in place to use Bristol parks for training and paid activities. I have previously tried to get a permit to work in Canford park but had no response! I am happy to pay! BUT the council are asking us to pay per green space….. if you have ever met me on the downs/ St Andrews park/horfield common/stoke lodge/Victoria park/st George park/ Redland green under these new rules this WOULD NOT BE POSSIBLE
I would only be able to afford a licence to work at Canford park. So you would have to come to me. Fine if you drive or your issues are not based in the woods!
If you have a dog walker you may loose them as they have to choose the one park they want to walk in or face multiple thousands of pounds in fees. We do not earn enough to find £1500-3000 a year for this!
We also need to have first aid training… a totally reasonable request! What is not reasonable is putting this to us with no notice and no consultation and expecting us to have £500 and first aid training within three weeks with no time to plan! Come on Bristol fight back! This covers your PT/ outside yoga/ Nordic walkers etc too… costs will be passed onto clients and businesses will cease to run! Being outside in green spaces and joining clubs aids mental health!
Lastly this fee is disproportionate to other councils who charge £200-300 for multiple parks inc London!
Please sign and get this reduced to multiple locations and a more reasonable fee either a notice period.
If you can write to local councillors even better!
Thank you!
