Teen & Adult Dog Foundations: 5-Week Course

Built for dogs aged 6 months and over, this course gives you and your dog the foundations for a calm, confident life together. Classes are small and run on kind, reward-based methods, so every dog learns at their own pace.

Over five weeks, you'll work on:

• Focus, engagement and proximity
• Loose lead walking
• Boundary training and impulse control
• Recall basics
• Emotions and understanding arousal

You'll leave each week with simple exercises to practise at home, so the progress carries into daily life. Whether you have an adolescent testing their boundaries or an adult dog who missed out on training, this is a friendly place to start.

PUPPY OWNERS! this is your sign to start training!

Bringing home a puppy is exciting… but those first few months can feel overwhelming too.

My 5-week Puppy Class is designed to help you build the foundations for a happy, confident dog, using kind, positive and practical training.

We’ll work on the skills that matter in everyday life, while helping you understand your puppy and build a strong relationship from the start.

📅 My next courses with availability are starting 10th, 12th & 14th November

Ready to give your puppy the best start?

The last trainer told you to "just be firmer."

Your gut said no.

Your gut was right.

Shouting, yanking and "showing him who's boss" might stop a behaviour for a moment. It doesn't teach him what to do instead, and it can make a worried dog more worried.

Kind doesn't mean soft, and it doesn't mean slow for the sake of it. It means clear, consistent and fair. Your dog learns what works, and you learn how to help him.

That's how I train. No shortcuts, no gadgets that hurt, no judgement. I'll explain why we're doing everything, so you're never just following orders.

If you've been burned before, I understand. Book a chat and ask me anything about how I work.

We can’t recommend Sophie highly enough! She is incredibly knowledgeable and always happy to share her experience, advice and tips, giving us the confidence to continue our puppy’s training at home. After each session, Sophie follows up with a really helpful email full of educational information and reminders, which is great for reinforcing what we’ve learnt.Sophie is so friendly, approachable and fun to talk to, and our training sessions have always been relaxed, enjoyable and full of useful advice. We still have a way to go with our pup, but thanks to Sophie, we feel we’ve made a fantastic start and have the knowledge and support to keep progressing. We’re so glad we chose Sophie to help us on our puppy journey 🐾

Today is Pet Obesity Awareness Day

Extra weight changes how safely a dog can train and exercise. 🐾

More strain on joints, less stamina, and a higher risk of overheating. It's not a dig at anyone, just a reason to check in with your vet if it applies to your dog. 💛

What my clients actually message me 🥹🐾

Messages like these are the reason I do this job. Looking after your dogs like they're my own, and sending you the photos and videos to prove they're having the best time, is the best part of my week.

Thank you to every owner who trusts me with their best friend. It means the world. 🤍
