Training and Behaviour

David taking a group training class, on dry days they are held outside and during wet weather they are in the hall which has a kitchen for tea and coffee breaks and toilet facilities. 

We currently run six classes each week in Theydon Bois, Essex, including The Kennel Club Good Citizen Scheme; Bronze, Silver and Gold and a fantastic Kennel Club Puppy Foundation Course. Our training ethos is to create a solid bond between dog and owner built on trust and fairness. Training is approached in a positive and fun way. We welcome all breeds of dog of all abilities.

Both David and Clare are members of The Guild of Dog Trainers and have various qualifications in Training and Behaviour.

We welcome dogs of all shapes and sizes, trick training is always fun as this Chihuahua demonstrates.
