Our Dog Training Programs
At Paws ‘n’ Claws, we don’t do fluff or quick fixes. We offer proper, real-life training that actually works. From tailored 1-1 sessions and structured obedience classes to neutral group walks, day training and residential stays, everything we do is built to be practical, fair and effective.
We also run scent work and mantrailing for the dogs who love using their nose and having a job to do.
Whether you’re starting from scratch or tightening up the final pieces, we’ll help you build a dog you can genuinely trust and a partnership that feels steady, not stressful.

Group Classes
Classes are ideal for both puppies and adult dogs, these are aimed at giving you all the information you need to raise a well behaved pet dog. As we train in a busy real world environment, we tackle real challenges owners will face on their walks as they appear. We aim to help owners trust that they can handle these situations tactfully & build confidence in their dogs in these situations.
Day Training
Our Day Train Service (10am–3pm) offers so much more than a typical day at daycare. We’ll pick up your dog in the morning and spend the day focusing on their individual training needs, building confidence, encouraging positive habits, and providing mental stimulation in a structured, supportive environment. Your dog will enjoy a purposeful day filled with enrichment, learning, and structured walking, all tailored to help them thrive. It’s the perfect solution for busy owners who want real progress, not just playtime.
