Why start now

They’re learning either way.

Puppies aren’t born knowing the rules. They are learning constantly, from everything around them, whether you are teaching them or not. The question isn’t whether your puppy is learning. It’s whether they are learning what you actually want.

Mouthing, jumping up, pulling and poor recall seem harmless at eight weeks. By adolescence they are real problems, and undoing them takes far more time, effort and money than getting it right first time.

We hear it all the time from owners of older dogs: they wish they’d come to us when their dog was a puppy. Don’t be that owner.

Two ways to start

Book an assessment, or go straight to training.

Not sure what your puppy needs? Start with an assessment. Know you want to do this properly from day one? Book the Puppyhood package.

Puppy to Adult

Three stages. One well rounded adult dog.

Our most complete puppy programme, and the one we recommend most. Each stage can be bought on its own, but owners who complete all three get the best results, and the full package is significantly better value.

STAGE ONE

Puppyhood

The essential foundations: communication, basic obedience, toilet training, socialisation, and the building blocks of a reliable relationship.

STAGE TWO

Adolescence

Hormones kick in and reliable behaviour can seem to vanish overnight. This stage keeps your dog on track while others go off the rails.

STAGE THREE

Young adult

Consolidates everything and adds advanced obedience, for confident control on walks, in busy places, and around dogs and people.

Bronze £4004 centre sessions and 4 hours with your trainer
Silver £55010 hours with your trainer, a home visit and a puppy social day
Gold £85022 hours with your trainer, a home visit, 3 puppy social days and a Dog Boost day

More ways to train your puppy

Whatever suits your life.

Before vaccinations

Home visit puppy training

Many of the most important habits are best built where your puppy actually lives. A trainer comes to your door for toilet training, sleeping, mouthing, jumping up and early lead manners.

You don’t need to wait for final vaccinations. The earlier we start, the better the long term result.

Personal puppy training

One to one sessions built entirely around you and your puppy, at a pace and schedule that suits your life. All the foundations, plus any specific goals you want to focus on.

Puppy socialisation days

The socialisation window is short, and it shapes how your dog behaves around others for life. Supervised drop off days teach your puppy to read signals, manage their excitement and build real confidence. This isn’t free play.

Home Life residential

Our top recommendation for puppies under six months who need the most immersive start. Your puppy lives with a dedicated trainer, with structure and training woven into every part of the day. Popular with owners going on holiday.

Frequently asked questions

How old does my puppy need to be to start?

The sooner the better. We work with puppies from eight weeks through our home visit programme, and you don’t need to wait for final vaccinations.

My puppy hasn’t finished their vaccinations. Can I still book?

Yes. Home visit training is available before the vaccination course is complete. We come to you, so your puppy can start safely at the right time.

What’s the difference between Bronze, Silver and Gold?

Each level gives a different amount of time with your trainer and support. Bronze is £400, Silver £550 and Gold £850 per stage. All three include online vet access, online resources, online support and training videos. You choose your level when you book, and your trainer can help you decide.

Can I book the Puppyhood package without an assessment?

Yes. If you know you want to do this properly from day one, you can book it directly. If you’re unsure what your puppy needs, the assessment is the best place to start, and its fee comes off your course if you book within 30 days.

My puppy isn’t showing any problems. Do I still need training?

This is exactly the right time. Prevention is far easier than cure, and the owners with the best long term results almost always started early.

Can I do just one stage of Puppy to Adult?

Yes, each stage can be bought individually. Owners who complete all three get the best results, and the full package is significantly better value.

My puppy already has some habits I don’t want. Is that a problem?

Not at all. We work with puppies at every stage. We may suggest starting with an assessment so we understand what’s driving the behaviour first.

Which centre should I book at?

Whichever is most convenient: Tingley, serving Leeds and Wakefield, or Sheffield. Both offer the full range of puppy training. Not sure? Call us on 0800 368 9122.
