This is the final course of 2025 and the 2026 courses are filling already!

We focus on creating calm, confident dogs through practical training in a supportive, social environment.

We are looking for dedicated owners who are ready to practice and commit to their dogs progress (even when it’s a bit chilly) and want to bring out the best in your dog!

We even have tailored pathways that we can discuss once the 6 week block has finished, to ensure you have fulfilment and stimulation in your dogs life, through our structured progressive classes.

🎙️ BREAKING NEWS:
Dogs call for clearer guidance on what’s “retrieve-able.

🎙️🐾 LIVE FROM THE DESK - THE CANINE NEWS NETWORK - WITH BRIE 🐾🎙️

Good evening.
I’m Brie, reporting live on today’s top story: Retrieval Confusion in the Modern Dog.

Across the country, dogs are facing a growing crisis. Reports suggest many are being told to “fetch it” in one moment — and “drop that!” the next.
Experts say this mixed messaging has left countless dogs wondering: Are we meant to pick things up or not?

Our investigation found that while dummies, tennis balls, and canvas toys are often celebrated, items such as socks, remote controls, and tea towels apparently fall into a mysterious “grey area.”

One source, who wished to remain anonymous stated:

“We’re doing our best out here. You tell us to hold, carry, and deliver — and then suddenly it’s contraband? We need clarity.”

Trainers recommend consistent communication, plenty of encouragement, and maybe a moment of reflection before you scold your retriever for doing what they’ve been bred and praised to do.

Because at the end of the day — we’re not being naughty.
We’re just being dogs.

This is Brie, signing off from the desk — reminding you that the line between “good retrieve” and “sock theft” is often paper-thin.

🐶🎤 Stay kind. Stay consistent. Stay curious.

Kids in the 80s had weird dreams.
Mine? Not a pony, not a TV star — I was desperate to go on Jim’ll Fix It.
(A little controversial, I know 😅)
I wanted an adventure with Indiana Jones.

Hat, whip, secret temples, hidden treasures — the full thing.
I didn’t want to be rescued. I wanted to be in it, discovering, exploring, chasing something extraordinary.

And honestly… I think I got my wish.
Just with spaniels instead of snakes.

The treasure? Usually a very precious blue Chuckit ball that has somehow disappeared into the undergrowth.
Saga takes on the role of chief investigator, narrating the journey as she goes.
Piper is the fearless pathfinder, crashing through brambles and splashing across streams.
Brie provides moral support (and sometimes carries an entirely unrelated toy).
And Joy… she quietly keeps the crew together, patient and calm, while the rest of us search.

We follow no map.
Sometimes we slide down hills on our backsides.
Sometimes we pause for ages just to breathe, watch the dogs sniff, leap, explore, and play.
No schedules, no pressure.
Just adventure — the kind that unfolds when you stop trying to get somewhere and start noticing the world around you.

Brie throws herself into my arms after a retrieve like she’s just saved the world.
Joy watches it all, tail wagging, quietly enjoying every moment.
Saga narrates every new discovery in real time.
Piper charges ahead, unstoppable and fearless, diving into every challenge without hesitation.

No temples, no golden idols, no maps — just us, together.
Searching for the blue Chuckit ball, laughing, exploring, and finding adventure all along the way.

What does adventure look like for you and your dog?

Our Club Page ❤️

We’ve always wanted to create something that feels a bit different.
Somewhere you don’t have to explain your dog, apologise for them, or pretend you’ve got it all together.

That’s what our Pure Dog Adventure Club on Facebook has quietly become.

It’s a mix of brilliant people and brilliant dogs — all shapes, all sizes, all stories. We share training updates, little wins, honest moments, and the kind of understanding that only comes from people who really get dogs.

There’s no pressure to be perfect. No judgement. Just curiosity, kindness, and a shared love of learning alongside our dogs — whether they’re steady, sensitive, chaotic, or a bit of everything.

If you like what we do, or you’ve ever thought “these are my kind of people,” come and join us.
It’s open, friendly, and full of heart — just like the dogs who brought us together.

👉 Search “Pure Dog Adventure Training Club” on Facebook and you’ll find us.
You’re very welcome there.

The Great Container Duck Chase

Our regular scent crew were back on Sunday for this month’s workshop — this time at the indoor storage site, which turned out to be a brilliant location for problem-solving searches.

We kicked off with a Halloween quiz and a duck hunt warm-up (Count Duckula would’ve been proud), then split into two groups depending on what odour their dogs work on — marshmallow root or lapsang souchong tea.

Each group set hides for the other, taking into account the dogs’ confidence and skill level. It made everyone really think about how hide placement changes the search — what challenges the dog in a good way, and what might make things unfair or confusing.

Watching it play out was great — the dogs worked through some clever puzzles, and the handlers got to see exactly how their setups landed in real time.

Lots of good discussion and reflection at the end. Solid teamwork, smart hides, and a cracking session all round.

There are only two spaces left so if you’d like to teach your dog to settle, engage with you and learn how to be a well rounded dog before the new year, send us a message.

Places are secured upon booking.

We’ve got a little guest staying this week — Evie! She and Brie have never met before, but thanks to all the careful introductions with other dogs and trust we’ve built over time, Brie has turned out to be the perfect little host. 🥹

Today was one of those perfect days — a long walk through the fields, swimming in the river, splashing in the lakes, fetching dummies, and just being together.

It’s amazing how easy life becomes when you really understand your breed — when you stop fighting who they are and instead go there confidently, fully embracing what they were born to do.

These spaniels are my dream team. 💛
