Our Puppy Socialisation Classes ( Puppy Parties) are run on a "join when you choose" basis, so you don't have to wait to enroll your puppy for classes at the start of a new term or new set of lessons. You can come along and join us whenever your puppy has had the first inoculation, this means that new puppies are joining our Puppy Socialisation Classes and older puppies are moving on to our Training Classes regularly. This movement of puppies is beneficial to puppy socialisation because throughout its time with us your puppy will get to meet a variety of different breeds, types and personalities. Rolling Classes mean that no one need miss out because their puppy is not ready to join at the start of fixed "term" or fixed series of lesson.s Puppies can join the Puppy Parties at any time up to 14 or 16 weeks of age and move on to the next stage of their education when they are ready, not at some arbitrary and unsuitable time.
Similarly our dog training classes are also run on an ongoing programme with no artificially imposed times to join or move class, our classes are designed to offer the best education and socialisation with a clear understanding that all dogs and owner are different and all have a potential to fulfil at their own pace and in their own style.

We keep our puppy and dog training classes small to ensure that everyone gets lots of personal attention and that means that we can mix dogs and handlers who are at different stages of learning in the same dog training class. Mixed classes means that instead of a class of young, excited dogs all with inexperienced handlers we have dog training classes where more experienced dogs set a good example and less experienced handlers have an opportunity to learn from those around them. This also means that, with the exception of very young puppies, who have special learning requirements, we do not set arbitrary entry requirements for different classes based on age groups or dogs who can perform a particular "trick", this that means that clients can choose classes to suit their time constraints and commitments rather than being forced into a particular time slot.


dog training outsideFlexible Attendance

We know that everyone is very busy and that it can be difficult to come to the same puppy or dog training class every week so we try to be flexible and offer alternatives. Our Fees for both Puppy Socialisation and Dog Training Classes are based on attendance not on a fixed timescale or rigid class allocation. When you book a block of lessons you are buying credits rather than specific classes so you don't have to worry if you can't make one or more classes. If you miss a week you simply carry the credit for that class over and use it another time, we only require that all classes are taken within 6 months of being booked.
We run Puppy Socialisation Classes and Dog Training Classes in both the afternoon and evening so if you want to come to an afternoon session one week and an evening session the next, that's fine! When you book you choose your "regular" class and any time that you want to change classes either just for a week or two or on a permanent basis, let us know and as long as there is a space in the class you want to change to - no problem.
Please note that bookings for special events must be used for the event booked or forfeit.
