In our classes your guaranteed to have fun with your dog and learn lots too! We try to use anything and everything available to us in class or outside, to give you as many ideas as possible to train your dog and have fun doing so!

Here we see a class with all dogs but one in a stay on their bed, whilst one handler and dog weave in and out of the other handlers off lead.

We use games to teach you and your dog, to ensure lots of smiles and wagging tails! Some of our customers have been coming back each week for years, so we must be doing something right!
