Puppy Training
Making a difference to you and your puppy’s relationship
Early training helps build confidence, communication and good habits from the very beginning, giving both you and your puppy the
foundations for a calmer, happier and more rewarding life together.
What is Puppy Training?
Puppy training is about so much more than teaching a sit or a stay. It is about building the foundations for a calm, confident and well-balanced dog, while helping you understand your puppy’s needs, behaviour and development from the very beginning.
Using positive, reward-based methods, I help you develop clear communication, focus, engagement and trust. The aim is to give your puppy the skills they need to cope with everyday life, while giving you the confidence to guide them through this crucial stage.
From toilet training and car travel to socialisation, settling, confidence building and problem solving, early learning helps prevent common challenges before they become habits.

Did you know?
Your puppy’s brain is developing rapidly during the first few months of life, making this one of the most important times for learning.
Positive early experiences can help shape how your puppy responds to new people, places, sounds and situations. With the right support, you can build confidence, encourage good habits and create a stronger bond from the very beginning.
Early Learning Puppy Training £195
From the age of 8 weeks I offer support and practical advice to help you build a strong, healthy and balanced relationship with your new puppy. This is a course with a difference, teaching you the essential basics and laying solid foundations for future training.
During the 4 weeks we will cover:
Toilet, crate training and car travel
Play, focus, engagement, and clear communication
Socialisation and habituation
Problem solving
Self control and frustration tolerance
Settle and switch off
Feeding,nutrition and husbandry
Confidence building and body awareness
Providing remote support and essential information for reference from the very beginning, the outdoor sessions commence once your puppy is fully vaccinated. These are taught on a 1-2-1 or 'buddy up' basis, to ensure you receive a quality tailor made service during those crucial early week's of puppy's development.

"I attended Pennys early learning course and what I learnt was invaluable.
Such a great start to help me on my way with my puppy. I recommend anyone who is getting a puppy to attend one of these courses. It’ll be the best thing you do."
"I completed Penny's early learning course with my boxer pup over a year ago now. The course offered a vital mix of theoretical and practical learnings, delivered in a group setting over a number of sessions. Penny presented each segment beautifully, providing essential guidance throughout, starting before even stepping out of the car! Penny creates an ethos of tranquillity and composure and is able to tailor exercises for each breed of dog seamlessly. The advice Penny provided has been priceless in our ability to train and produce the family dog that we wished for, alongside her ongoing mentorship and support when needed. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Penny regardless of the age, breed or discipline of dog - she has incredible knowledge, passion and talent for all things K9 and we will be returning to learn further disciplines soon."
