Every dog is unique, and so is our approach.
We tailor our training to suit your dog’s individual needs — because one size never fits all.
Dogs can bring incredible joy, companionship, and adventure into our lives. But they can also bring challenges that leave us feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or unsure of what to do next.
Perhaps your dog is harder work than you expected, doesn’t seem to listen, or those peaceful countryside walks you imagined just aren’t happening yet.
That’s where the right support makes all the difference.
Working with a qualified, compassionate trainer helps you build a relationship with your dog rooted in trust, understanding, and mutual respect — turning daily struggles into shared success.
At Cotswold Hound, we are here to help support you develop good behaviours and encourage a great life with your dog.
We also want to provide the understanding and skills to build an enjoyable relationship over the long term.
To do this we use force free, reward based training and work with you to set objectives based on your needs.
For our 121 and ‘Train for you’ services, we cover anywhere within a 20 min drive of our office in Cheltenham free of charge, any further there is a small charge to cover time and fuel.
Let’s chat! You’ll tell us about your dog, get some training advice and your questions answered, and see if we’re a good fit for working together going forward.
We’ll work closely with you to schedule sessions that fit your lifestyle. 121 training is available Mon to Fri, 8am to 7pm. The location will be based on your dog’s needs, with most first sessions taking place at your home so we can observe your dog in its natural environment.
With your customized training plan and unlimited support from your trainer, you’ll be able to get started towards success! As we work, we will be reassessing your plan to make sure it continues to be the best plan for you to see real, lasting results.
