Our private, one-to-one training sessions are the most effective way to address your specific needs and build a strong partnership with your dog. Working at a pace that suits you both, we can focus entirely on the areas that require attention, from basic puppy foundations and steadying, to advanced hunting, retrieiving, handling and competition preparation.
Our group training sessions are carefully structured to simulate a realistic shooting or working test environment. These sessions are perfect for dogs that already have a solid grasp of the basics and are ready to take their training and preparation to the next level. We run regular training groups designed for both spaniels and retrievers.
Preparation and confidence is everything when it comes to competition. Our mock working tests are designed to replicate the atmosphere and setup of a real working tests. We set up challenging, realistic scenarios, providing you with a safe, constructive but competitive environment to test your dog's abilities under pressure.
For dogs that require intensive training or simply a fast-tracked education, we offer limited residential training placements. Your dog will stay with us in our purpose-built kennels and receive structured and regular professional training. We treat every residential dog as if they were our own, ensuring they receive the best possible care, stimulation, and education during their stay.
We are always happy to discuss your dog's current progress and recommend the best path forward. Contact us today to chat about your training goals.
