Pentlands Dog Training

The dogs were lovely, and their handlers were even better – calm, patient, and up for the challenge.

We worked on Emergency Stop and Stay: thoughtful, consistent training that builds real-life reliability. Just enough movement to keep the dogs engaged, just enough calm to keep them from zoning out.

We were having such fun we found extra time to address and improve recall and middle!

Huge thanks to everyone who came along – you made it a pleasure to teach.

Next one’s on the way. Want in?

🐾PICK n MIX WORKSHOPS🐾

Made for the days when you find yourself googling, "Can my dog be possessed?"

Pick one. Pick a few or pick all six and get an exclusive online training session with Rizia.😀

If your dog is ignoring you like it's an Olympic sport,
treating every item like its a hostage situation or
he's gone off on a jolly one too many times and he needs a job to do - there's probably a workshop for that.

No gimmicks - Just solid training, good company and humans getting better at being humans (that dogs can live with)

Bring your enthusiasm, sensible shoes, plenty of treats and your dog! I'd love to see you!

Workshops take place outdoors in secure fields with ample room. Small groups - 4 dogs. 🐕🐕‍🦺🦮🐩

Places are limited so don’t get caught snoozing 💤

Dogs, much like humans, communicate through a range of signals. Often, we only realise something is wrong when our dogs start behaving in ways that are impossible to ignore. However, much like human communication, many messages are conveyed long before the situation escalates. Consider a conversatio...
