Where we train in West Sussex
West Sussex coverage (BN / RH / GU / PO)
Dog training delivered across West Sussex with home visit dog training and on-walk coaching. We regularly work around Chichester, Worthing, Crawley, Horsham, Haywards Heath, Bognor Regis, Littlehampton, Burgess Hill, Shoreham-by-Sea, East Grinstead and surrounding villages.
Real-life proofing in parks, streets and daily routines
Training is built around real situations: lead pulling on busy pavements, recall around distractions, greetings on walks, visitor routines at home, and behaviour patterns that show up in everyday environments across West Sussex.
How it works
1) Assessment
We identify what’s driving the behaviour and define the goal (obedience, control, behaviour change).
2) Plan
You get a structured plan with clear rules and milestones that fit your dog and your home.
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)
