Our training methods:

  • We encourage as much owner participation as possible to benefit from the training
  • Families welcome (and encouraged) to the outdoor classes. Indoor classes have limited spacing so please consider how many people need to come along.
  • Children not recommended at Dog Academy sessions.
  • Increasing the owners understanding of their particular dog and breed
  • Positive training methods with gentle corrections. What we call a common-sense approach
  • We do not use harsh physical methods or shouting
  • Information on rewarding your dog the do’s and don’ts
  • Games to increase mental stimulation and avoid boredom
  • Short exercises changing frequently to avoid boredom and increase memory
  • Outdoor classes incorporate short exercises changing frequently and repeated each week due to the flexible booking of this class. This is a proven method over decades and you advance the training with the level of your dog.
  • Indoor classes incorporate a progressive 6-week training programme, with each week brining a new element or progression of the previous week, this is a different approach but equally as successful.

Our trainers have a wide range of breed knowledge and welcome all breeds large and small into the classes.

You will be trained by a fully qualified Advanced Professional Dog Training Instructor with the CIDBT and Master Professional Dog Training Instructor with the Guild of Dog Trainers.
