Training options
Puppy training
My puppy classes are carefully designed to build focus, attention and confidence. The classes are reward-based and the exercises progress according to ability. Suitable for any age puppies up to one year old. I address common issues such as jumping-up, barking and pulling on the lead. My lessons will teach you the skills to be able to bring the training into your home environment.
Adolescent and Improver Classes
My adolescent and improver classes build upon the skills learnt at puppy classes and fine tune them. This will give you the ability to take your dog training in a specific direction. Whether you are interested in dog competition sports such as agility, scent-work, obedience or simply want to engage with training your dog to improve your bond and connection, this course will help you to understand the skills needed for more advanced dog training.
121 and behavioural issues assistance training
I'm a level 5 behaviour practitioner, I am qualified to address minor behaviour issues such as separation anxiety and resource guarding as well as undesirable behaviour such as barking and jumping up. If you are having issues regarding aggressive behaviour please contact a clinical animal behaviourist.
My approach is focused on understanding your individual needs, and what is motivating the dog's behaviour, providing practical solutions for you to be able to move forward together. For personalised consultations and hands-on behaviour training assistance, please contact me directly.

Just one of the reviews from my lovely clients. See more on my reviews page
Excellent puppy classes completed with Sarah recently. Not only was it great fun, brilliant socialisation and learning for our puppy, we learnt so much from Sarah’s vast knowledge and experience. The classes were indoors with a lovely small group, so very manageable and not too overwhelming for our puppy who started at 14 weeks. I’d thoroughly recommend the course with Sarah and we’ll definitely be going back in a few months for next level sessions. ☆☆☆☆☆
