About The Training
Training That Works for You and Your Puppy
Puppies are adorable, but they can also be frustrating, overwhelming, and exhausting. The constant biting, jumping, accidents, and pulling on the lead can make life stressful. When your puppy doesn’t listen, it’s easy to feel stuck – but it doesn’t have to stay that way. Good training makes all the difference.
With the right guidance, your puppy can grow into a well-mannered, confident dog. At Cleaver Dog Training, we use kind, practical training methods that work in everyday life. Imagine being able to take your puppy out for a walk without them dragging you down the street, or greeting guests without jumping all over them. That’s exactly what we’ll help you achieve.
Upcoming Workshops
Throughout the year, we run various workshops to suit all levels of dogs and handlers. We hold regular lead walking and recall workshops; children's' trick and agility training sessions during school holidays; specialist occasional workshops; and Heelwork to Music clinics with specialist guest instructors.
