Our Groupclasses
Real-life skills. Real-world confidence. Real support.
Classes that prepare you for real situations.
Whether you're raising a puppy, wrangling a teenage tornado, or managing a reactive dog — our group classes are designed to give you the tools, support, and structure you need to succeed.
We keep class sizes small and focused so you and your dog get personalised coaching in a supportive environment. Every session is practical, engaging, and built to help your dog succeed in the real world — not just on the training grounds.

Absolutely! In fact, I encourage it. Everyone who interacts with your puppy should be on the same page for faster results. I do prefer it if the adult takes charge and learns the methods first and the kids can learn after you had a go yourself.
