Widget's Farm

Widget's Farm is over 14 acres of lovely countryside with ample secure space dedicated to dog training, rehab and secure field hire.

Run by an accredited clinical animal behaviourist, Widget's Farm is a dedicated dog behaviour, training and rehab centre set in 14 acres in Standerwick, near Frome. Our training approach is to use learning theory to motivate and reward animals for the desired behaviours, and to change their negative view of a situation where one exists. We end up with happy, healthy dogs which learn to cope with stress and make better choices. Anna, Widget's human, has an MSc in Clinical Animal Behaviour from Lincoln University, and is a member of a number of professional training and behaviour organisations. She also undertakes regular CPD to ensure Widget's Farm always provides the most up to date science-based training. We are also fully insured and staff are qualified in first aid. Located on the Somerset / Wiltshire border, we cover Frome, Bath, Trowbridge, Bradford-on-Avon, Shepton Mallet and the surrounding areas.

OK, fess up, need help?

Struggling with a pully dog, or maybe they roar off and don't come back however much you call?

This package gives you three private training slots for the price of two to really get on top of those tricky training skills you've been meaning to fix for ages. All training methods are modern, positive and effective. Private classes allow us to really understand your pups motivations and ensure exercises are designed to suit you and your dogs needs.

You have 6 months to redeem your sessions and all training takes place at The Widget's Farm dedicated training and rehab centre.

There's going to be a lot of hungry dogs today! My favourite approach is just to put the meal time back 15mins each day until we're back on track. And leave the room to avoid the dramatic stares.

Some of our gorgeous new puppy starters.

Would you like to give your puppy the best start, or do you have a teenage pup that you'd like to stop embarrassing you? New puppy and adolescent classes are starting this Saturday, and just one space is left on each.

Just spent four hours trying to get a p*e sample from a suspicious puppy. Felt like a useless undercover cop who had been made in the first 5 seconds. Thankfully my patience outlasted her bladder control!

Lesson learnt - don't put the catcher in place too quick as the shop can still shut at the start. Wait for a few seconds in because then they're committed. IYKYK.

I thought it had suddenly become too quiet! Puffin is adamant that there was something extremely dangerous that needed to be caught. A mini grand canyon excavation later...

Let's discuss play! Here is our teen and adult playing, but should I interrupt...

(Do join us for fully accredited training - 121s and classes for puppies and teens starting regularly. Link in our bio.)

Margot came for help with her retreive. Her owner would rather that she didn't roar off in a lap of honour! So let's see how she's doing...

My most hated dog training myth: "Don't go to your puppy if they cry." 🚫🐶 Forcing isolation too quickly causes long-term distress. Instead, use my "One Second Boring Acknowledgement" (OSBA) method to build true confidence. Watch the video to see how it works!🐾 New Puppy & Adolescent Lifeskills classes are starting soon in Somerset / Wiltshire. Spaces are limited!
