2 wins at agility means they are out of Grade One and into Grade 2!!! All the hard work both of them have put in has really paid off.

Very proud of you both 🤩

We’ve had a few new followers recently so thought we'd re-introduce ourselves. 👋

We’re Clare and Sooz and we are the team behind DREAMS Dog Training.

Our goal is to make dog training as accessible as possible and to introduce you and you best friend to activities that will enrich both of your lives.

Whether you have an adolescent dog who has forgotten everything they learnt at puppy school, or a reactive dog who needs something to do, we can help you.

We work with all dogs and their people to coach, support and advise on:

Basic training - from focus, to recall, to loose lead walking and beyond

Enrichment activities - Scentwork and Mantrailing

Sports activities - from foundations to competition level

And we do that by creating channels of communication between you and your dog, making training a valuable and enjoyable experience for all.

We joined forces in January 2024 through our shared love of dogs and have found our ethos, skills and personalities complement each other perfectly.

We both regularly compete our own dogs and can often be found camping in our vans in a field whilst discussing the best way to teach a rear cross!!

We each live with multiple dogs and love nothing more than to spend time walking them, playing with them and hanging out on the sofa with them.🐾

Helping our customers gain confidence in their dogs abilities, learn new skills and make new friends has been immensely rewarding.

Animals have been a big part of our lives. Nothing brings us greater joy to see dogs and their humans having the best time together 💕

And as we hit 6 months working together we are so proud to have supported so many dogs and their people to achieve their goals. We can’t wait to see what the next 6 months bring.

We’re always excited to meet new dog owners in our circle. So don't be shy!

If this is something you'd like to join, our Scentwork classes for beginners are on Mondays and Thursdays at Littleham Village Hall.
Learn the basics of searching for odour and then join us On The Road!

Do you and your dog love scentwork but find you are searching the same places all the time?

Do you want to join a group of likeminded people and take your training to new places?

Well look no further.

As an addition to our Scentwork classes and the Scentwork element in our DREAMS membership, we are adding:

SCENTWORK ON THE ROAD

This is for anyone who has done basic Scentwork training with their dog and they are searching for odour.

If you think this is something that would interest you, let us know in the comments.

If you haven’t done any Scentwork before but would like to join in, keep an eye out for classes at both 4 Active Paws and Sooz Foster Dog Training. We are also going to be running some workshops with DREAMS too.

More details coming soon 🤩
