How to find a good training facility

1. Find out how long the facility has been in existence.
2. Can the people concerned provide meaningful references?
3. Differentiate between supposed qualifications, memberships and self-imposed and impressive titles and those that are genuine and meaningful?
4. Are the courses on offer properly structured and are the dogs concerned of a similar age or level of training?
5. Do they offer more than just an introduction to training?
6. Do you feel comfortable in the training environment?

Why Choose Us?

‘Unfortunately, there is no requirement that instructors at puppy classes (or obedience schools) know how to train dogs to be well-mannered pets. Absolutely anyone can print up some business cards, rent a space and claim to be a dog trainer.’

Dr Bruce Fogle makes this statement in his book – Newdog, published in 2008. He is a leading UK veterinarian and author of numerous books.

DOG TRAINING IS BOTH A SCIENCE AS WELL AS AN ART.

SCIENCE IS THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE DOG
WHY THEY DO WHAT THEY DO AND WHY THEY RESPOND IN CERTAIN WAYS.

ART IS THE ABILITY TO TEACH PEOPLE HOW TO REACT AND INTERACT CORRECTLY WITH THEIR DOGS.

AS A FACILITY WE COMBINE THESE ASPECTS WITH EXPERIENCE, KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING.

The concept of what encompasses dog training has changed over the years. Practices that were used as the basis of training have been modified as the science aspect has come under more scrutiny. The belief that dog and handler must work together for the mutual good is now more accepted as opposed to having the dog work for and not with you.

Our methods will continue to evolve in line with concepts that – through knowledge and experience – are proven to be successful. There is no ‘one’ method of training and the more tools and options that the trainer can call on, the more the pupil will benefit.
The basis of what we do is based on firmness, fairness and consistency and advocating positive ownership. Strange that well-behaved children seem to be in the same homes as well behaved dogs.

Our results speak for themselves
