Group Classes, Workshops & Walks
There is a lot of training you can do in a 1-1, but at some point you need to take those skills out and actually use them.
Our group sessions give you somewhere to train around other dogs, people and distractions without having to rely on whatever happens to appear on your normal walk, giving dogs more positive experiences, with the support of a trainer with you, so you can ask questions in real time.
Have a look below and see what suits you and your dog.
Playbedience
Playbedience is exactly what it sounds like, play and obedience together.
We use play, food, toys and whatever actually motivates the dog in front of us to build engagement and then put that into the obedience.
All breeds and ages are welcome, and you don't need to have done Playbedience before.
Pack Walks
These are for dogs who are ready for more social freedom and can benefit from moving, exploring and sharing space around other dogs.
For some dogs, being around steady, socially capable dogs can do a huge amount for their confidence and social skills. Our own dogs are often involved too and, honestly, they teach some dogs far more about appropriate behaviour than we ever could.
Not every dog is ready for this straight away, and we must meet and sign the dog off before they can join.
Structured Walks
Our Structured Walks are on lead and give you loads of opportunities to work around other dogs neutrally.
We work on things like lead reactivity, overexcitement, frustration, neutrality and simply being able to walk as part of a group without everything becoming a massive THING.
For a lot of owners, this is the bit that is really hard to recreate by yourself.
We may ask for a 1-1 before being able to book.
Workshops
Our workshops give us the chance to properly focus on one area of training rather than trying to cram everything into one session.
Topics change throughout the year and can cover anything from puppy development and play to recall, handling, obedience, scentwork and other bits we think owners would benefit from spending more time on.
You will learn the theory behind what we are doing and work through it with your own dog.

You want to learn more about one specific area of training?
Keep an eye on our Workshops.
Your dog reacts, pulls, screams, lunges or gets completely overexcited when they see another dog?
Structured Walks are probably where we want to start.
Your dog is ready for appropriate social experiences and sharing space around other dogs?
