Let's hit the ground training this 2025 and get you out into group classes with your puppies and dogs! There's no time like now to begin or continue your training!

The Puppy Group is suitable once the puppy has completed vaccines! Suitable upto 12 months of age, all breeds welcome!

The LLW class is suitable for all ages and breeds, but your dog MUST be sociable and friendly around other dogs and people.

I use force-free methods, so we're all about
positively reinforcing behaviour we like and want repeated, and stay away from any tools or corrections that can damage our pets!

If this sounds like something you're interested in, get in touch with any queries or to sign up!
Contact Naomi on 083 165 7558.

I have a new service available! This 4-session package is designed for owners who would like to see results but don't have the time/energy to commit to full sessions.

We'll do the first one together, so that everyone knows the exercises and goals, then we work separately for three weeks and get together for a progression session together. In these three weeks, I'll be calling to your house on two occasions to take your dog out for a training session while you work away at home!

This service is suitable for all breeds, all ages. Main objectives would be Loose Leash Walking, Recall, Reactivity, Meeting Manners.

Areas covered: Dunboyne, Dunshaughlin, Ratoath, Dublin 15.

If you think this sounds ideal for your family, please get in touch! You can text/whatsapp on 083-165 7558 or send an email to [email protected]

Hi all, just a little update on Release the Hounds!
I'm currently working 7 flexible days per week; this means I'm available Mon - Sun, at various times, ensuring that I can work around your schedules. As winter draws in, this will change with dark mornings and evenings, but let's not get too gloomy about it now, I'll update you about that when the time comes 😁

For now, I am doing the one-to-one training consultations where I go to your home and we design a bespoke training plan tailored to you & your dogs needs, and we focus on that for a couple of weeks at a time, in between progression sessions.
The prices for these personal training sessions vary depending on where you're located, so if you're interested, be sure to let me know where you're based when you're making a query.

Group classes are proving very popular and very fun! I have four upcoming group classes, which I'll list below. I believe every puppy / adolescent dog should be doing group classes for their outdoor training and the added benefits of socialising.

14th Sept, in Dunboyne Park:
9am - 10:15am Loose Leash Walking
A once-off workshop, €40 per dog

14th Sept, Dunboyne Park:
10:30am - 11am Puppy Social Club
A once-off workshop, €30 per dog

28th Sept, 5th, 12th, 19th Oct
Four week term in Dunboyne Park:
10am - 11am Puppies up to 9mnths
€120 per dog

28th Sept, 5th, 12th, 19th Oct
Four week term in Dunboyne Park:
11:15am - 12:15pm Adolescents up to 2yrs
€120 per dog

If you would like to chat about or sign up to one-to-one training or any of the above classes, the best way to reach me is by text or WhatsApp on 083 165 7558. I can't usually answer the phone, so message is your best option. Alternatively, you can send a detailed email to [email protected].

I also have an online training option, where we do a session over zoom/facetime, and this can be booked through my website www.positivepuppy.ie. It's especially good for those who are planning on getting a puppy or rescuing a puppy / young dog, and would like some tips and advice before they arrive in their forever home. These sessions set you and your newest addition up for success!

All the best,
Naomi 🐾🐾
