September Workshops & Tasters

Discover what makes your dog tick with our hands-on enrichment taster session! You’ll rotate around a variety of stations including scent games, play, freework, and more.

How Can We Help?

Many of the dogs we work with are clever, energetic breeds – like spaniels and labradors – who were bred to work closely with people.
That can be a gift… but it can also mean big energy, big feelings, and behaviours that feel tricky to live with.

Whether you’re dealing with a whirlwind adolescent, struggling with recall, or just want calmer, more focused walks, we’ll help you understand your dog and build the skills that matter most – using kind, reward-based training that actually works.
