Training

We recognise that every dog is unique, which is why our training methods are customised to suit each pet’s individual needs and personality. Our approach is rooted in the principles of dog psychology, focusing on understanding your dog’s emotional state and strengthening the bond between you and your dog. Through clear communication and positive interactions, we create a learning environment where play (using toys or food) is a big part of the training. Most of our clients seek our help with unwanted or potentially dangerous behaviours, and our primary goal is to improve your dog’s behaviour as quickly as possible so that you and your dog can enjoy your desired lifestyle. This sometimes means that dogs need to understand the consequences of their actions in order to stop certain behaviours efficiently and successfully.

On average, most of our clients find that just three focused sessions are typically sufficient to address a variety of concerns and behavioural problems. Many clients will book a catch-up session every 6 months to learn additional techniques. City Paws or pack walks are ideal supplements to our 1-2-1 training, enhancing individual progress. All our existing and previous customers are welcomed to join these group sessions.

We cover Berkshire and its surroundings areas.

Sessions take place either at your home, at a local park or on Saturdays at Lily Hill Park in Bracknell - whichever setting suits you and your dog!

Please bring your dog’s favourite toy or treats.

No assessment is required beforehand, as our dog behaviourist is highly experienced and will be able to address the problem right away.

We welcome dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to seniors!

Absolutely! We love to work with all breeds and have a wealth of knowledge about different breed traits.

To participate in City Paws or Pack Walks, you must have had at least one 1-2-1 session with us. This ensures that we can give the best possible experience to each participant.

Generally, we do not encourage short-lead greetings, as dogs are not as relaxed when on a short lead. During both City Paws and Pack Walks, dogs must remain on a short lead at all times.

Pack walks are held on the first Sunday of every month while City Paws take place mid-month on Saturdays. Please note that there are no City Paws or Pack Walks on bank holidays.
