Welcome
Our Services
At Paws 2 Train, we offer a range of dog training and behaviour support options designed to suit dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities.
Whether you're raising a puppy, dealing with challenging adolescent behaviours, or seeking specialised training, our positive, reward-based approach focuses on building confidence, improving communication, and strengthening the bond between you and your dog.

Puppy Foundations
Start your journey together on the right paw. Our Puppy Foundations course is perfect for pups under six months, offering a safe and supportive environment to learn essential life skills. Across six fun-filled sessions, your puppy will develop confidence, practice calm behaviour around others, and be introduced to important cues such as recall, sit, stay, lead walking, and gentle handling.
We also provide guidance on topics like toilet training, play biting, and socialisation. This course is ideal for first-time dog owners or anyone wanting to give their puppy the best start.

Adolescent & Adult Training
Teenage tantrums? Trouble with recall? Our adolescent and adult dog training options are designed to help your dog refocus, re-engage, and learn in a way that’s both enjoyable and effective.
We offer structured group classes and one-to-one sessions covering key skills such as loose-lead walking, recall, polite greetings, impulse control, and focus around distractions. Whether you’re brushing up on basics or working through behaviour blips, we tailor each session to your dog’s needs and learning style.
This is especially beneficial for dogs who have missed early training or need help overcoming a challenging phase.

Behaviour Consultations
If you're facing more complex behavioural issues like reactivity, aggression, separation anxiety, excessive barking, or nervousness, we offer in-depth behaviour consultations to get to the root of the problem.
These personalised sessions include a thorough assessment, a practical training plan, and follow-up support to help you build lasting change in a compassionate, manageable way. We use only force-free, science-led techniques — no fear, no pain, no punishment.
Sam’s calm, supportive guidance helps you feel empowered, not overwhelmed, as you work through these challenges together.

Pet Gun Dog Training
Does your dog have a working breed background, such as spaniels, retrievers, or pointers? Our pet gun dog classes provide a fantastic outlet for their natural instincts while improving your communication and control.
This six-week course covers foundational skills including recall, stop whistle, directional work, heelwork, and retrieving — all in a fun, supportive environment that mimics real-life scenarios. It’s perfect for active dogs and owners looking to tap into breed-specific enrichment without the pressure of field trial standards.

Tracking Workshops
Let your dog’s nose lead the way. Tracking is an incredibly rewarding activity that provides both physical exercise and mental enrichment.
Our workshops teach dogs to follow human scent trails, locate items, and build problem-solving skills. It's suitable for beginners or experienced dogs looking for a new challenge. Whether you want to try a one-off taster session or build this into your regular routine, tracking offers a fantastic way to channel energy and deepen your bond with your dog.

Agility & Hoopers
Looking for a fun way to burn energy and boost your dog’s confidence? Our agility and hoopers classes are the perfect choice for dogs who love to move.
Agility focuses on jumps, tunnels, and balance equipment, while hoopers uses low-impact obstacles for a joint-friendly alternative. Both encourage fitness, coordination, and focus. These classes are suitable for all breeds and experience levels — whether you’re just looking to have fun or interested in progressing to a sport.
We build skills gradually and prioritise safety, ensuring your dog feels successful and supported throughout.
