Understand your dog. Enjoy your dog. Force-free puppy classes and 1-2-1 training in Downend & Bristol

Hi, I'm Julia — a professional dog trainer based in Bristol and the surrounding areas, with a degree in Animal Behaviour and years of hands-on experience with rescue and assistance dogs. I use positive reinforcement only — rewarding the behaviours you want to see more of, whether that's recall, house training, polite greetings, or building confidence. I work with puppies through to adult dogs, covering everything from early socialisation to settling a new rescue in and strengthening your bond. Dogs are family, and they just need a little guidance to navigate our world. I'm also a mum of three, so kids are always welcome to join in!

Adventure Paws dates are out!
Small group sessions out in the real world, so your dog can practise their skills where it really counts.

Fri 6th of November: Staple Hill High Street. Focus and confidence in busy places

Fri 4th of December: Yate Common. Recall games and focus

Fri 8th of January: venue to be confirmed. Settling in public

All sessions are 10 to 11am, £25, with no more than 4 dogs, so this suitable for all levels even more nervous dogs.

These sessions are for dogs I've already worked with, through puppy class or a 1-2-1.

Huge welcome to our new pups: Peach, Stanley, Sylvie, Brontë and Jax!

Apologies for my shoddy camera skills 🤦‍♀️

Vet visits don't have to be scary.

This is Georgie at the vet's with a snuffle mat to keep her busy. It also helps teach her that this is a nice place to be.

A lick mat during the appointment helps keep her calm (I don’t even think she noticed the 💉)

Thank you to Benson's family for this lovely review ☺️

Most of the time it's small changes, not big ones, that make the difference. And it’s always easier for a new person to come in and help you figure out what that might look like.

So if you would like some advice or general training tips, you can book a 1-2-1 training in your own home through my website www.positivepawsbristol.co.uk

Graduation day 🎓

Well done to Buddy, Bambi, Peggy, Reggie and Zeus for all your hard work these last five weeks!

My October class is fully booked but if you’d like to join our November group we still have a couple of spaces left.

We picked the worst weather for our sessions today ☔️😂

Well done to everyone for some great work!

Pretty sure we have some very tired puppies tonight! 🐾

This is a reminder to say we still have a couple of spaces left for our upcoming adventure paws session 🐾

This is a small group session out in the real world, so we can work on staying focused around other dogs and people while out and about.

Its suitable for dogs of any age (even puppies) and numbers are capped at 4 dogs so I can still give you plenty of individual feedback and advice.

This session is only for dogs I've already worked with, in class or one to one, so I know everyone's starting point.

📍 Fri 9 Oct · Yate Common · 10–11am · £25

You can book directly through this link: https://form.jotform.com/262502385693361
