“Kirsty is an experienced and professional trainer”.
Your dog will enjoy exclusive one-on-one training in whichever activity you require. Ask us to try a few different activities and we will find out what they enjoy.
We COLLECT your dog(s) from your home, give them a full hour of training, incorporating breaks for play / sniffing and recharging, and drop them home afterwards.
Your canine companions will be supervised at all times by fully insured, CRB Checked, experienced, Canine First Aid trained staff members.
You will receive a training log book, which we complete after each session to track your dogs progress.
