Training walks* (Owner & pup)

One of the best things you can do for you and your pup is teach them how to walk properly on a lead. Not only will it make the walk more pleasurable but you'll feel in control and able to manage your dog if you ever come across a challenging situation.

We'll teach you a 3 step training method which will give you the skills to achieve a reliable heel walk transitioning into a relaxed loose lead walk.

We'll continue the work with your pup once you've been through the owner/pup training.
