The most important stage of your dog’s life is during puppy hood. Our Puppy classes are run in conjunction with the Kennel Club Puppy Foundation Assessment and are designed to lay the foundation for a well-behaved dog that will be a pleasure to live with and a nuisance to no-one.

The puppy starter class is a six week course during which you will be taught how to get your dog to walk on lead without pulling; how to get your dog to come back to you; the importance of exercises such as getting your dog to sit and go down on command and socialising with other people and dogs in a controlled manner. We will give advice on various types of collars & leads that are available and how to use them correctly, advice on puppy behavioural problems (as what is your problem with your puppy one week, will most likely be some else’s the next week and what is a problem to you and is giving you concern, more than likely has a simple solution).

We accept puppies of all breeds from about 14 weeks of age.

All dogs must have a valid vaccination certificate which must be shown on the first night.

The puppy starter class is limited to a maximum of 10 dogs so that everyone also has some individual training.
