OUR CLASSES

We run classes at four different levels from Puppies through to Intermediate Plus. We welcome all breeds and ages of dogs, including rescue dogs. Our training instructors and assistants follow positive reinforcement methods that are science based, with emphasis on creating a rewarding and fun experience for both dogs and humans.

Classes run on a 7 week cycle. Class times are 18:10, 19:05, 20:05, 21:00

Our Training Philosophy

We use reward-based, welfare-focused training methods, that are well evidenced and based on current science. We set our dogs up for success and reward them when they get it right. We encourage members to share any concerns they may have and never force them to do anything that they or their dog are not comfortable with.

Aversive training methods, physical or psychological, can damage trust between dog and handlers and are not allowed in the Club. 

Our 7 training instructors and 3 assistants have a wealth of experience and have been training our members' dogs for over 15 years. When a member requires specialist support our training instructors will signpost them to an accredited professional.
