Give your puppy the best start in life…

Group Training courses

Give your puppy the best start in life at one of our group Puppy School UK training and socialisation courses. Classes are small, and teaching is friendly, kind, and aimed at setting you and your puppy up for success from the start.

Start your journey with us TODAY!

Puppies are welcome to start classes with us from 8 weeks old and must be vaccinated. The cut-off age for your puppy to start a Puppy School group course is 20 weeks old but we recommend starting as soon as possible to help with your puppy’s socialisation (the key window being between 8 and 12 weeks old).
You can start your pre-puppy training work with us either before your puppy comes home or whilst they are still waiting to be vaccinated - our ‘New Puppy Advice’ session will help prepare you for all of the pre-school training which is recommended.
Can’t find a course date to fit around your puppy’s age and vaccinations? Contact us here.
