If you have a 'teenage' dog or a rescue, our Improvers class is exactly what you've been looking for!

Our two most popular masterclasses are back in April - recall and lead walking. They're the ones dog owners struggle with most and devoting just an hour or so to each can make the world of difference. Book soon because class sizes are limited so we can give everyone personal attention and really work with you and your dog

Our masterclasses are the solution!
