Find time to train your dog..
Find energy to train your dog..
Find patience to train your dog..
Find the fun in training your dog!

Some of the reasons I get given for dogs not getting trained; I've no time, I'm too tired after a day of work, I feel like I'm getting nowhere, etc!

Your daily training sessions don't have to take hours, in fact little and often can be more beneficial for creating new habits and routines. Even on your longest days, a quick 5 minute session / handful of treats will be productive and stimulating for your dog, they'll be delighted you put in the effort!
Depending what you're working on, it can take some time to see big results; but focus on the little wins of progress as reassurance that your dog is understanding the training and improving a little bit every week with it.

It is our responsibility to train our dogs, and ensure that they're comfortable in safe in every environment they're put it. Set them up for success!

One space remaining in each class, we begin this Saturday! Text or WhatsApp if you'd like to enrol!

Hi all! I have two stand-alone group classes taking place next month, Saturday 20th January.

11am - Puppy Social Hour
Bring your puppies along to interact with other pups their age, gain some training tips from Naomi (IMDT Qualified), and go home with a goodiebag (and a tired pooch)! This class is suitable for puppies under 8 months of age, and they should have their vaccines completed. Children are welcome to join!

12:15pm - Go Walkies!
This is a 1 hour 15 minute class suitable for dogs 6 months of age and older. The class is designed to teach you how to train your dog to walk without tension in the lead.
Your dog must be comfortable/sociable with other dogs, and should be handled by a person 18+ years of age.

All techniques used & advice given will be of a Positive Reinforcement style.

If you have any questions or wish to enrol, please text or WhatsApp Naomi on 0831657558

I remember starting this handsome chaps Loose Leash Walking training, and he took to it like a duck to water! His owners couldn't believe it! Sometimes you only need one or two sessions to achieve some basic training, and when it comes to not pulling on the lead, that's so important for both you & your dogs health and safety!

It's not about correcting a behaviour, tt's about showing your dog a nicer way to walk on lead and heavily reinforce that!

To make a booking, text or WhatsApp 083 165 7558 🐾🐾

If you have recently gotten a new puppy, or are considering one in the near future, be sure to prioritise your education & training to prevent overwhelm, stress and in order to get into good routine and habits from the get go!

I travel to you for your training sessions and prices vary depending on your location. Please get in touch to enquire!
