Puppy Training & Socialisation

We know that every puppy and person will have their own unique relationship and we work with you to build a life-long bond and strong foundations for the best start in life.

With a combination of over 20 years of experience working with Puppies (and Humans!), we have the best combination of team attributes to give you and your dog the best support during those crucial development stages.

Clients and their dogs on our perfect puppy programme typically achieve:

Incredible focus and attention on their owners, even around distractions

Essential foundation behaviours such as 'sit', 'down', 'leave', 'stay' and 'settle' (perfect for the pub!) on cue

Crucial social skills with humans, children and puppies

A puppy that can greet without jumping up

Confidence and calmness

A puppy who will tolerate grooming and handling

A brilliant bond and mutual trust

Puppy Training & Socialisation

Perfect Puppy Package

For puppies under 6 months

Our Perfect Puppy Package offers the ideal balance of personalized in-person training, expert support, and controlled socialisation.
Unlike traditional “one-size-fits-all” village hall classes, we focus on the foundations that matter to you. We provide breed-specific guidance tailored to your puppy’s unique personality, ensuring you build a lifelong bond based on clear communication.
What’s Included:
* 1-to-1 In-Person Training: Focused, private sessions to build rock-solid foundations.
* Comprehensive Training Program: A step-by-step roadmap for you to follow at home.
* Unlimited WhatsApp Support: Have a question? Our support group ensures help is always just a message away.
* Puppy Socialisation Classes: Controlled environments for your pup to learn vital social skills.
* The “Puppy Pack”: A curated welcome kit filled with essentials for all new puppy owners.

Why choose us?

We believe every dog is an individual. By combining private coaching with group socialisation, we ensure your puppy isn’t just “well-behaved” in a class, but a well-adjusted companion in the real world.

“We have just completed our 6 week ultimate puppy class training. The skills we learnt were fantastic for building a strong positive relationship with my 5 month old puppy.

Puppies could socialise in a safe environment and the training was fun and easy to pick up.

We also got tips on food hierarchy for effective training and an amazing hamper.

Kerry is warm welcoming and my puppy adores her. We also had a number of 1:1 sessions which were completed at home.

I learnt key skills quickly using Kerry’s positive reward. I highly recommend this business. 5⭐️”
