Connected Canines
Maybe your dog used to listen… but lately it feels like they’ve switched off their ears and are ignoring everything you say.
If you’re looking for a proper reset, so you can feel confident your dog will listen again and you can start tackling real-life training struggles like pulling on the lead, jumping up at guests, or barking when you’re out at a café… you’re in the right place.
Connected Canines is your dog’s training reset button.
Over our 6‑week small group class, you and your dog will go back to the basics and rebuild strong foundations.
We’ll boost focus, create calmer behaviour, and strengthen your relationship so you’re not just “managing” your dog day to day… you genuinely trust that they’ll listen to you again.
What’s included in Connected Canines
6-week structured course
Weekly training sessions in our private training base to help you and your dog build skills gradually. Each session focuses on a specific skills and you and your dog will learn and practice a verity of training exercise to build theses skills.
Week 6 is a real‑world session at Rothwell Park, where we practise in a busier environment and bring everything you've learnt together.
Small, calm classes and personalised support
Small groups keep sessions calm and give you more individual coaching. Fewer dogs means clearer guidance, faster progress, and less stress especially for nervous, sensitive, or easily distracted dogs.
Guided trainer support
You’ll have direct access to trainer Shona between classes for clear troubleshooting so you’re not stuck or second‑guessing your training at home.
Pre- and post-class resources
Simple, easy-to-follow resources and demo videos before and after each class, so you can practise correctly at home and keep making steady progress week to week.
