Paws4Teaching Dog Behaviour & Training in Taunton and surrounding area. I am a Clinical Animal Behaviourist (MSc). We are fully insured.

Paws4teaching offers dog training from puppies through to adult dogs in the Taunton/Bridgwater/Wellington and surrounding areas of Somerset. Whether you rescued your dog, or had him from a puppy, We can help you in all areas of training and behavioural work. Our aim is for you to understand your dog and their needs, and for you to have a mutually enjoyable relationship. We only use positive and reward based training methods and do not believe in the need to use any negative training or equipment. I am a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT), which means we adhere to a strict code of conduct, only using ‘Kind, Fair and Affective’ training methods. There are no ‘quick fixes’ - no matter what some TV programmes or other trainers show! Working with a dog to learn something new or change a behaviour will take time and patience – but don’t worry, we will be with you all the way.

What a fantastic couple of days in Devon with Matter for Halloween themed Detection Dog Trials

Gwen and Gillian decorated and made 4 incredible and very different search areas to use over the weekend. The effort they made was second to none - thank you ladies for all your hard work all weekend. It definitely didn't go unnoticed. Thank you so much for inviting me.

I had the pleasure of photographing lots of new teams and some noses that have been in my lens before. Some wonderful searching and team work.

Photos from the weekend are now all online. Ill post the link in the comments - you may have to copy and paste into a browser - or visit the pinned post at the top of my page and scroll to the detection dog gallery

Please note: In trying to get the photos online as quickly as possible I have not editted Sundays photos at all - I will edit all orders of Sunday's phtoos
I did give Saturdays photos a quick edit - I will check all orders, if they need any additional editing I will do them and email you them across.
All digitals orders will receive an "as seen in gallery" instant download. I will then edit and email you the edited copy.

Any questions pop me a message or email

Thank you all for your fab company this weekend

Congratulations to all the P4T scent dogs that competed in Detection Dog Trials over the weekend. Dogs Matter Gwen & Gillian had put in so much effort and ran fantastic trials 😊 Hallie was on form again in Novice and achieved 1st & 3rd. Special mention to Pauline with Ceri who got 2 x 1st on Saturdays Novice. Mary Ann entered with Cap on their first Prelim and won 1 element and got 3rd with Tetley in Novice and Carol with Timba got 2nd & 4th in their first Novice. Alison with Herbie was considering retiring but did so well. Others teams I know did well too and others have taken learning away for their next trial 😁 very proud 🥰

Bramley and myself went to a play and motivation workshop run by Di Martin Click-2-Heel. Lots of learning to take away.

Having a young dog is such a fun (and sometimes hard) journey of finding different ways to engage and motivate around distractions whilst not expecting too much.

Adolescence isn't an excuse, but you need to understand this stage and work with your dog to achieve progression 😊🐕 Although Bram is nearly 3, he is still quite immature and has lots of developing to do ❤️
