Still learning. Still loving it! Bruno is 10 now, and still loves his training. It’s serious fun!

Puppy class isn’t just about now! It’s about setting them up for life.
The way they listen, settle, come back when it matters… it all starts here.
We keep it fun, we keep it kind, and it really works.

If you’ve got a puppy under 6 months, come and join us. We would love to have you there.

Happy Sunday! Today’s the day you can stop Googling “how to stop my puppy…” and start finding solid answers.

Puppy training isn’t about making everything perfect. Instead it’s about understanding each other, one small win at a time.

In my classes, we don’t just teach tricks. We talk about the ‘why’ behind the behaviour. The frustration, the excitement, the stress you might all be feeling in the family. And how to turn that into calm, confident communication.

Help with:
- Recall that actually works
- Walking without your shoulder dislocating
- What to do when they bark, jump, or maybe even those little aargh moments… (we want to lovingly melt over our puppies, not melt down over them!)
- Support for you, not just your dog

This is a space for learning.
For first-time puppy owners, for seasoned dog people with a new challenge, for anyone who’s feeling overwhelmed and just wants someone to say, “Yes, I’ve seen this before—and here’s how we work on it.”

Class spaces are available - next course on 7th June. I’m a registered, experienced, well-qualified dog trainer and clinical animal behaviourist too. The aim is to help you help your pup.

Why now is the perfect time to start Puppy Class!
(Yes, even if it doesn’t feel like it.)

Puppies don’t wait for life to calm down. They chew, they jump up, they scatter your socks across the house, and they do it all while learning who they’re going to be.

That’s where our Puppy Academy comes in.

Puppy class isn’t about perfection. It’s about gentle beginnings, clear communication, and learning to trust… even when things get messy. And they will, but it’s all part of the fun, I promise.

In class, we build real-life skills:
• Coming back when called
• Walking on a loose lead
• How to behave (us and them!)
• Polite greetings, confidence, and calm settling
• A whole lot of reassurance that you’re not alone.

Why now?
Because this stage won’t last forever, but the habits they learn now will. Early support means fewer struggles later. And frankly? It’s much easier to shape good behaviour than to undo bad habits after they’ve settled in. I’m an experienced trainer and registered behaviourist. I’m here to help!

Take the first step. They can’t do it without you, and they are the family member that will give back endlessly.

Next course starts on Sat 7th June for pups under 6 months.

Message me to book or ask questions: quickest method is email [email protected] or visit https://karenwildpets.com/puppy-classes/ to see more.

Let’s make this a calm, kind and common-sense beginning for you and your puppy.

Here’s Peggy, our very first winner of the Belle Award. All our class dogs are cheerful, and hopefully enjoy their teamwork with us humans. Peggy was especially consistent, always keen to engage, wagging her tail and busy learning new skills. Life skills including ignoring close range distractions, listening carefully, and enjoying the process. It’s a trust bond they all share! Well done Peggy. Happy, Willing, Enthusiastic just like sweet Belle was too. Excited to see who might get this special award next time!

Our next Puppy Academy and Life Skills group starts soon, and there’s still space for a few more little paws to join!

If you’ve got a pup—or know someone who does—this is a brilliant time to jump in. These sessions are fun, calm, and confidence-building for both dogs and their humans.

We’ve been running these for 15 years now, and I still absolutely love watching pups grow into themselves.

Email me if you’d like to book or chat more—I’d love to meet your new companion! [email protected]
