To discuss training and more.
Our wide-ranging set of dog training classes covers the whole spectrum, from basic puppy socialising and life skills through to various advanced activity classes for more advanced dogs with equal enjoyment.
Once your dog is registered with us you will be assigned a slot on the timetable for weekly training classes, which are priced at £67 a month for a 45-minute session. Some activities, workshops and courses are held monthly, bookable in advance online.
If you’re not sure which course of training will suit your dog’s needs and abilities, never fear – we’ll start out with a training assessment where we can recommend the best route and length of course for your dog or puppy.
Training is usually conducted in pre-booked group sessions (with restricted numbers) at our Warminster centre, and we do offer one-to-one training when needed.
Please see the schematic we have drawn up to explain our complete training process through the ages and stages, and descriptions below for the adolescent and adult courses available.
If you have any questions don’t hesitate to contact us and ask, preferably using our online contact form.
Puppy training classes are valuable for all sorts of reasons, not least to foster a strong bond between owner and pet. Some of the main benefits include:
We offer a safe, controlled setting for puppies to interact with other dogs and people, developing social skills and preventing fear-based aggression later in life.
Your little four-legged friend learns essential commands like “sit”, “stay”, “come”, “down” which are all fundamental for managing your puppy’s behaviour and keeping him/her safe.
Early training can help prevent common problems like excessive barking, chewing and jumping.
Training boosts the confidence of puppy and owner, making them comfortable in new situations and reducing anxiety.
Our professional trainers offer effective puppy training classes using positive reinforcement methods, which create a positive association with learning going forward. Our puppy training sets you up for a life-long positive relationship with your furry friend.
Focus on self control and life skills, including recall, loose lead walking and problem solving. Parkour, Hoopers and Scentwork training is introduced.
Fun and sporting activities added in the mix while progressing obedience and life skills like recall and loose lead walking. Some Parkour, Scentwork, Rally and Hoopers skills are included.
A fun mix of obedience and sports activities incorporating Pawkour, Rally, Scentwork, Hoopers and Flyball alongside obedience, self-control and any other topics requested for each group. Participants are invited to events and demonstrations we hold throughout the year.
The Focus is on TD Rally principles, navigating through Level 1, 2 and 3 signs. Working on combinations, big routines and published show courses.
Fun for dog and handler through courses including tunnels, barrels, hoops and go-go mats with fun sequences. The focus is on distance handling, teamwork, control and confidence.
Using the dog’s natural instincts and powerful sense of smell they are taught to locate various scents, respond to search cues and communicate with their handler. We start simply then build up to complex hides, blind hides and double-blind hides, including height and discriminatory scents.
In canine parkour dogs learn to interact with objects in the environment. We work through level 1 & 2 behaviours initially to include 2 feet, 4 feet, in, under, through, straddle, wobbly, balance and more. Adventurous agility and good brain stimulation.
We run a monthly Puppy Club (£8) and socialisation workshop (£20) for the little ones under six months old, and monthly workshops to teach “Tricky Teens” – adolescent dogs – socialisation skills (£20).
Our other monthly sessions are the popular Paws & Picks Drop In (£20) for all ages (as long as they are happy to be in a group with other dogs). The bespoke curriculum is designed from a huge range of obedience and sports activities aimed at fun.
In addition, we run rotating monthly workshops covering a variety of topics, all set a few months in advance and advertised on the website and social media.
We are always happy to help with any particular challenges your dog is facing, whether it is with a full 45 min one-on-one session (£65) or a 30 minute session every two weeks (£35).
All our training sessions (weekly and monthly) have to be booked in advance online, once you have registered with the Centre.
All sessions are noted on the regularly updated Timetable which features our daytime and evening classes. If you have any queries about the timetable or your class booking please get in touch.

As your young hound grows out of puppyhood through to adolescence he or she can move on to our Juvenile Training Classes, designed for dogs aged four to six months and upwards.
Our classes for juveniles are offered weekly at our training centre for a fee of £67 per month by direct debit, with classes scheduled according to our timetable for daytime, evenings or Saturdays.
These classes help your puppy to progress beyond foundation behaviours, working more deeply on self-control and management, tweaking behaviour as it develops to prevent future problems.
Juvenile pupils graduate straight up to our “Tricky Teens” course for adolescent dogs, and then onward to the novice level and adult classes.
We also run a teenage social club for nervous or overzealous dogs aged between six and 18 months, who need a little more help with their social skills and interactions, priced at £20 a session. The focus is on meet and greet behaviour and controlled relaxation in social situations.
All our classes require advance booking online.
