I used the "walk and train" service and had the pleasure of Hayley as our trainer. Hayley is calm and patient with my super pully turbo spaniel. She is knowledgeable and consistent in her approach and my dog loves her!

What we can train
Our team of professional dog trainers and behaviourists can help with recall, walking nicely on lead, pavement waits, self-control, handling/husbandry, settle and life skills for puppies. We tailor exercises and training to suit your dog's breed, ensuring they receive appropriate mental and physical stimulation. Additionally, we focus on socialisation skills, improving your dog’s responses and interactions with other dogs and people, fostering positive social behaviours, and reducing over-reactivity.
What you get
Following your initial session(s), we attend your home and take your dog out for a walk or work on their training within the home environment, leaving you to crack on with work, chores or leisure- just like a dog walking service! After a few walks/sessions, we encourage a "debrief". This is a 1-2-1 training session where you are brought up to speed with the training that's been covered. As an alternative, you can have a mini 15 minute debrief at the end of a session so you are kept fully informed! Once everyone is being consistent in applying the training debriefs are likely not needed.
Where we can train
We cover the whole of Bristol. We can pick up your dog from your home and drive them to a walk location nearby. Or we can complete a local walk from the doorstep, or do training within the home and garden.
Frequently asked questions
Why do I need a 1-2-1 session first?
Not only is it important that we get to know your dog before taking them out for a walk, a 1-2-1 session allows for us all to be consistent. This will facilitate optimum progress to be made on each walk.
Do I get training notes?
We provide individualised training notes for 1-2-1 debrief sessions, but not for the individual walks.
Do I have to have a debrief session?
We recommend demonstrating to you what we learned about your dog and found to be most effective in improving their behaviour. Debriefs will allow you to take the progress we made and move forward with it on your walks with your dog. You can either add 15 minutes to the end of each walk or have a 1 hour 1-2-1 session at the end of three walks. Should you continue to book walks, you do not have to have a debrief every three sessions. Although, we would advise having one every 8-10 walks as a minimum.
Do I have to be home for when you arrive?
It’s advisable that you are present for the first session so we can be sure your dog is comfortable with us attending the home and taking them out for a walk. From there, you can leave us a key in a keysafe or we can keep a key under our care until your final walk or debrief session.
