Where we train in Gravesend
Gravesend and nearby
Local dog training delivered on real Gravesend routes and everyday set-ups. Sessions can be delivered as home visits and on-walk coaching across Gravesend and nearby towns such as Northfleet, Ebbsfleet, Swanscombe, Greenhithe, Dartford, and Rochester.
Real-life proofing, not controlled-only training
We train where behaviour happens: pavements, parks, riverside paths, neighbourhood walks, everyday triggers and real-life scenarios around Gravesend.
How it works
1) Assessment
We identify what’s driving the behaviour and define the goal: obedience, control, behaviour change, or a mix.
2) Plan
You get a structured plan with clear rules and milestones that fit your dog, household and lifestyle.
3) Coaching and proofing
We coach you through reps and homework so progress holds on walks, at home, and around distractions.
Problems we resolve most often
- Recall that fails around dogs, people or wildlife
- Pulling and lunging on lead
- Reactivity to dogs or strangers
- Over-excitement, jumping up, poor manners
- Anxiety, fear, confidence issues
- Aggression and control problems (assessment-led)

What local dog owners say
“Me and my partner rescued an American Bulldog, he had become a real struggle to handle in every aspect. We decided to get him trained for a better life for him and us. We met Mac at SK9 and decided he was the person we would trust to leave our little man with. Since working with Mac and his continuous help, Percy has changed dramatically. He is a different dog, listening to commands and losing his bad traits. We have made the decision that Percy would never go to another trainer except Mac. Great service.”

Support does not stop when the final session ends. Clients receive a follow-up call after completing any residential dog training programme in Kent, plus guidance if you run into hurdles later.
