How to proceed:
Contact
Please call us for an initial discussion with regards to your dog's requirements
and your preferred dates for training.
Application Form
You will then be asked to complete and return our application
form, found at the bottom of this page, so we have all your details to hand. Included in this form is a scoring system, where we ask you to assess and score your dog’s current ability and then your
overall objectives from the training and an idea of duration of stay.
Assessment
You and your dog will then be invited along to visit us here in Norfolk for an initial on-site assessment, so that we can ascertain what level your dog is at currently, how you handle and communicate with your dog and how best we can assist you in reaching your objectives.
Plan
We plan a bespoke training plan for your dog. We will then decide together a realistic time frame for your dog's to stay with us as you can appreciate every dog learns at a different rate and requires different motivation to achieve this. You will have the opportunity to have a look around and see our accommodation and facilities and to ask any questions you may have.
During Training
We will keep you updated via videos and pictures of your dog's progress. Giving you feedback on how they are doing and what areas we are going to concentrate on next so you can be part of the training journey.
Owners Handover & Training
At the end of the training, we will conduct a handover so that you have the tools and the knowledge of how to handle your dog.
