Want a dog in Germany? Better study up—new owners need to pass both written and practical tests first.

There’s always that slim chance 😬

What’s your favourite bit of advice that’s been foisted on you by Joe Public?

My favourite bit of unsolicited advise came from a lady who told me the only way I’d get rid of my terrier’s prey drive for sheep was to lock him in a pen with a ram and let them fight it out 🤷‍♀️

Think twice before underestimating what a small dog can do 😂

The weather was crap so off we went to sniff some vintage buses!

Both dogs and humans had a great time sniffing and posing on a variety of classic buses ❤️

The last puppy course of 2025 is underway! This week’s class looked at the foundations of loose lead walking.

Got a puppy and looking for training in the New Year? The first courses of 2026 are up on the website!

The new chute arrived so we had to get it out for some Hoopers fun 😀

Worked a nice variety of searches on Saturday’s Super Sniffers classes. Worked on exterior and interior perimeters, tables and chairs and had a bit of fun searching me as well 😂

Saturday’s puppies worked on teaching alternate behaviours to jumping up!

Jumping up is one of the most common issues puppy owners come to me about. Old advise to ignore the jumping up rarely works either because the dog is rewarding itself with the act of jumping, or finds alternate ways to get attention… like barking 🤦‍♀️

Teaching pups a clear behaviour they can use as an alternative, and proofing that behaviour in exciting situations is far more affective.

About Us

Hello and welcome to Rat Pack Dog Services!

We aim to provide you and your dog with the best training on offer using the most up-to-date positive reward based methods. We want you and your dog to develop better bonds and have fun together! Our trainer is currently undergoing training with Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT) so that we can offer you the highest ethical standard of training. This includes, Puppy, Adult, Scentwork and Mantrailing classes.

We also aim to provide workshops from both ourselves and fellow dog trainers to give as rounded an education as you want, including Recall, First Aid, Reactivity and Dog Sports.

We also offer an individual service called ‘Enrichment Visits’ that can be designed and tailored to your dogs needs. We will visit your dog at home and spend time playing, training and mentally simulating their minds. Have a puppy, older dog or one that is convalescing and can’t go out with a dog walker when you’re working? Is Daycare out of your budget? Then this service might be your answer.
