Our Residential Dog Training courses are custom made to tailor to the diverse and individual needs of the modern-day dog owner. Your dog comes to stay with us for the duration of the course, whilst we do the hard work for you!
We will meet with you at the end of the course for a handover lesson, to ensure you are up to speed with the training and thus equipped to maintain control of the home environment.
We have four courses available which will focus on improving your dog’s obedience or behavioural skills. These courses are primary module base, however, depending on your dog’s progression within the course our trainers may also include some of our baseline items.
You can choose from either the 3-week Course or the 5-week (depending on your requirements).

Why Our Training Works
We understand that not having your dog by your side for a few weeks can be tough, but there are benefits that can only be gained through this method of training. By taking them away from their usual environment, they can focus on learning their new habits without constant distractions.
This also allows plenty of time for our experienced trainers to really get to know your dog, allowing them to identify and implement the best training methods for them individually.
With TWO daily training sessions 5 days a week over the training period, your dog won’t forget the good behaviours they are learning – they will start becoming ingrained as habit much quicker than if they need to re-learn it once a week.
It really is the best, most effective way for your dog to learn new skills and habits.
Which Dog Training Program is Right For You?
Simple commands can be mastered like heel, sit, drop and stay. If pulling on the leash, rushing past people, annoying barking or destructive behaviours are getting you down, then have a chat to us about the best options for you.
Give your best friend the chance to become the GOOD DOG he/she really craves to be!
