The Dog Trainer's Dog

The Dog Trainer's Dog

Are you a dog trainer? Do you need help with your own dog's behaviour, but can't find the right workshop, class or trainer to help?

At Adolescent Dogs, we offer a safe, non judgemental safe space for you to bring your dog, and get the help, support and guidance you need, whatever the problem may be.

This workshop will be run by our Head Trainers Mike Newland and Jenny Trigg.

We will be using and promoting reward based training methods with techniques that we have learnt from top trainers from all over the world, blended together to create a training system that works.

Whether you are a novice or experienced trainer, you'll know that there is always something new to learn, new techniques/methods to discover, and different approaches to try.

This workshop is designed specifically for trainers who want help with their own pet dogs

In this 3 hour workshop, the content will be completely tailored to the individuals who attend and exercises will be introduced at the appropriate level for the dog and the trainer. This will be a completely open workshop for troubleshooting
