“Dream puppy!”
Thank you so much! These past 6 weeks have been amazing and I’m so glad we decided to join your puppy school. The skills we learned have helped us become more confident for her and she’s become such a dream puppy. We get so many compliments from strangers and other dog owners that she’s so good. Can’t thank you enough. We’ll definitely be in touch to continue our journey.

Your puppy is under 20 weeks and has received their second set of primary vaccinations. Pups of all breeds and sizes are welcome!
Note: If your pup is 20 weeks or over already (well done for surviving the early days), have a look at my personalised puppy training option instead.

FAQs
-
I recommend enrolling puppies as soon as possible, while their brains are most open to learning about the world. They can start from the age of 11 weeks and upwards in class one (subject to vaccination status, always check with your vet). All pups should be under 20 weeks in class one, but if your pup is in the older age range it can sometimes be a better option to choose one-to-one sessions, to get going with building good habits and introducing training skills earlier.
-
Most puppies will have their second set of primary vaccinations by 12 weeks and your pup can start while this immunity is building.
Please consult with your veterinarian regarding your puppy's vaccination status. The importance of early socialisation cannot be overestimated. I follow hygiene protocols for a safe environment indoors.
-
Good question! Please bring your puppy on a comfortable harness and standard lead, lots of pea-sized tasty treats in a pouch or big pocket, a water bowl or bottle, and a blanket or mat for your pup to rest on in between exercises. (Don’t forget poo bags, I’m sure you have them stuffed in every pocket by now.)
-
