If you've been worried by any aspect of your dog's behaviour recently, take a look at our latest blog

Barking, guarding, separation distress, anxiety and aggression are very common issues that affect the quality of life for dogs and their owners. Sadly, these are not things that tend to get better on their own. The more your dog 'practises' these behaviours, the more ingrained they become as the 'ri...

Fancy working dog style control for your pet dog?

Dogs that go deaf at the sight of a squirrel, spend 90% of their lives with their nose to the ground, or who bound around on walks with enthusiasm for everything apart from recall may be super frustrating at times but they all have DRIVE. This is a fantastic quality in working dogs - police dogs, gun dogs, sheep dogs - but often the lives our pet dogs lead don't satisfy these instincts, which is why they look for other outlets.

And that's exactly what our Working Dog class does. We show you how to turn those amazing doggie instincts - to hunt, search and retrieve - into a perfect partnership with you. We'll work on -
√ distance control
√working to the whistle
√ close walking next to you
√ hunting for hidden objects
√ retrieving to you... and more
Most importantly, it's fun and fulfilling for you both and will transform your walks. While it's a must for all the wonderful spaniels, labs, retrievers, setters and pointers out there, this class is also great for ANY dog who loves to pick up toys. So whether you have a pure bred lab, a cockerpoo, or a dog that just loves doing stuff with you, check out our Working Dog course.
Starts Saturday, May 25th, 9.30am

The secret to our improvers course is that it's not all about 'obedience' - it's about teaching your dog to make good choices for themselves! To choose to come charging back every time you call, to choose to walk calmly past exciting things, to choose to focus on you, to choose to settle quietly in all kind of situations... Plus we throw in fun stuff like retrieve and a brilliant trick with some great real-life uses. If this sounds exactly what you and your dog need, come and join our 5-week Shape 'Em Up course. Next classes start Saturday May 11th (morning) and Tuesday May 14th (evening)

Does a dog with great self-control, great focus on you, and great responsiveness sound good? Then this is the perfect course, whether your dog is a 'teenager', finished puppy training, or a rescue whose training needs brushing up

Our popular Working Dog class is running again. We love this course! We show you how to take all those amazing (and, let's face it, occasionally frustrating!) doggie instincts - to hunt, search and retrieve - into a perfect partnership with you. One of the things that's brilliant about this course is how calm and focussed on you even the busiest dogs become as they learn to put those talents to good use. Learn skills like distance control, working to the whistle, close walking, searching for objects, retrieving and more. Most importantly, it's fun and fulfilling for you both and will transform your walks. While it's a must for all the wonderful spaniels, labs, retrievers, setters and pointers out there, this class is also great for ANY dog who loves to hunt out and pick up toys. So whether you have a pure bred lab, a cockerpoo, or a dog that just loves doing stuff with you, check out our Working Dog course. Next course start Friday, March 15th, 11am. https://www.hotdogtraining.co.uk/service-page/working-dog-fri-9-30am?referral=service_list_widget
