Dog Training

Build skills, confidence, and connection — together.

Our group training classes offer a structured, supportive, and fun environment where dogs of all ages can learn essential life skills. Whether you’ve got a playful puppy, a headstrong adolescent, or an older dog who needs a refresher, our classes are designed to help you and your dog grow as a team.

We offer tailored sessions including:

• Puppy Training

• Adolescent & Adult Improvers

• Gundog Foundation & Improvers

Our goal?
To help you become the centre of your dog’s world — where they choose to listen, respond, and connect with you, even in distracting environments.

Why choose our group classes?

• ✅ Held in a secure outdoor field just outside Leckhampton Village — easy to find, safe to train

• ✅ Small group sizes for personalised coaching and progress at your dog’s pace

• ✅ Active learning — we keep you moving with short breaks to build focus and real-life coping skills

• ✅ Simple, fun, effective exercises that transfer easily into everyday life

• ✅ Homework and notes provided after each session so you can keep progressing at home

• ✅ Ongoing support between sessions via email or WhatsApp for common questions or challenges

Whether you’re dreaming of calm countryside walks, better behaviour around other dogs, or a dog who simply listens when it matters — we’re here to help you make it happen.

Pet Gundog Training – If you have a gundog breed (Retriever, Spaniel, HPR or a cross of these), Gundog training aims to help you harness the dog’s breed traits to build the engagement and interaction between dog and handler. We do this using positive reinforcement techniques.

We provide a Gundog foundation level course over 8 weeks which provides the basics, including retrieving, heel walking, recall, steadiness and other aspects too.

Our Gundog Improver course, develops on the foundation level over 8 weeks and especially brings in additional retrieves and more handling to develop your dog’s abilities.
