• Train from the Comfort of Your Home → No stressful car rides or waiting for in-person classes - learn in a relaxed, familiar environment where your puppy feels safe and the whole family can get involved.
• Flexible Learning → Watch and practice at your own pace, whether you’re an early riser or a night owl. Perfect for busy schedules! (assuming classes will be recorded? Although ideally we want them to be present for the session).
• Real-Life Results → We focus on practical skills you’ll actually use - like settling at a café, walking nicely on a lead, and coming when called.
• Expert Support at Your Fingertips → Learn from an accredited puppy trainer, plus get additional insights from a vet behaviourist and a clinical animal behaviourist - ensuring your puppy gets the best guidance from multiple experts.
• Better Focus, Faster Learning → Your puppy can learn in a distraction-free space, without overwhelm, before practising in real-world situations, setting them up for success.
• Join a Supportive Community → Connect with other puppy owners, share progress, ask questions, and get encouragement every step of the way.

Over six sessions we cover:

• Settle → So you can enjoy a meal or drink in a café or pub with friends without your puppy jumping up for attention. Or so you can focus on work without your puppy running madly around when working from home.
• Recall → So you can let your puppy enjoy some freedom, knowing they will always come back when you call - whether at the park, on a hike, or in your garden.
• Lead Walking → So you can enjoy relaxed, stress-free walks without feeling like your puppy is taking you for a walk - saving your arms, shoulders, and patience!
• Alternatives to mouthing → So you can learn the best strategies to stop your puppy from using your hands, clothes, and furniture as chew toys - without accidentally making things worse.
• Toilet Training → So you can keep accidents off your carpets and floors and confidently leave your puppy without worrying about unpleasant surprises.
• Greeting without Jumping → So your puppy learns to greet people politely instead of launching at guests, making visitors feel welcome (instead of knocked over!).
• Leave It & Drop It → So your puppy will drop whatever they shouldn’t have in their mouth (before they swallow it!) and leave tempting but dangerous items alone.
• Socialisation → So your puppy grows into a confident, well-behaved dog who feels comfortable around people, other dogs, new places, and everyday experiences.
• Being Left Alone → So your puppy can stay calm and relaxed when you step out, preventing separation anxiety and destructive behaviours.
• Engagement & Play→ So you can channel your puppy’s energy into fun, structured activities that build a strong bond and prevent boredom-related mischief.

Throughout the course our expert team are on hand to advise on a variety of aspects including:

• travel
• grooming & handling to prepare you for upcoming vet visits and future adventures
• being around children
• happy with visitors
• neutering
• food
• general care of your puppy as they grow.

Additional one-to-one training sessions are available if you want to continue to develop your and your pup's life skills. 

• Each course is run over a 6 week block. We run multiple blocks within the year.
• Classes are on a Wednesday at 6.15pm.
• Maximum of 6 delegates/puppies per course.
• Puppies should be no older than 25 weeks old (5 months).
  If your pup is older you may be interested in our Puppy Parenting sessions which are one-to-one training designed around you and your pup's individual requirements. You can purchase these as individual sessions or as a bundle of 6.
• Varied topics so your pup progresses gradually over the whole course. Each class will contain something calm and something exciting for your pup.
• Each session will contain a variation of live classes, Q&A discussions and some pre-recorded aspects will be used. At the end of each week you will receive a recording of the session and access to helpful videos and handouts.
• Sessions are recordable so you can rewatch and share them with your household so you are all working together in unison.
• Delegates can also purchase discounted one-to-one training sessions with our trainer if there is an aspect of the training course with which additional help is needed.
• If behavioural help is needed, discounted behavioural help is also available.

We will let you know of any prerequisites required for the next class, the week before. Anything we suggest as a prerequisite will also be something that we consider an essential piece of  kit and will be helpful to use again and again for your pup (and you!) beyond these classes.

• Settle mat: this is a mat, blanket or towel which your pup will develop a strong and positive association with it so that it becomes a visual cue that can lead your pup to settle calmly - ideally you want this to be something lightweight, washable and that packs small so you can take it out and about with you. 
• Treats
• Toys - the type will vary on what topics we cover each week 
• A food-filled rubber toy or lick mat, e.g. Kong or Lickimat.
• Water bowl
• Space: choose to set up for the class where you and your pup have space to move. The space available will vary for each group member - we’ll work with what space you have! You’ll need to be able to see your screen and we will need the camera on your phone/laptop to be on. Don’t be shy, we need to see what you are doing so we can help and feedback to you if and when required. Giulia will mute the class - just raise your arm if you want to ask a question. 

If you don’t have a specific item listed or your pup decides it’s nap time when the class starts, don’t worry! Many alternative options can be used and even if you or your pup can’t take part in a single exercise you’ll still learn from your other members and their pups within the group!

Yes. The advantages are that your pup remains comfortable in their relaxed and familiar home environment where they feel safe. Being able to learn in a distraction-free space gives you and your pup the security and confidence before you practise in real-world situations - setting you both up for success. With better focus, your pup will learn faster.

It also means no stressful journeys to and from your class. Plus the whole family can get involved!

Your pup is learning so much every day and they need a lot of sleep! Don't worry if your pup decides it’s nap time when the class starts, we can still teach you! Many alternative options can be used and even if you or your pup can’t take part in a single exercise you’ll still learn by watching the other course members and their pups within the group!
