Group Classes

Pawfect Pup Academy Group Class in our Secure Training Paddock in Lyng or at Lyng Village Hall!

Training from a young age helps develop a well-rounded, happy, and healthy adult dog.

We have 2 classes running on Friday evenings in Lyng Village Hall. The 6:15pm class is for puppies over 12 weeks – 6 months old working on basic life skills (More information below). The 2nd class running at 7:30pm is for puppies over 6 months of age working on proofing and advancing your dog life skills (More information below). 

Our Saturday afternoon class take place outside in our secure paddock in Lyng. This class is for puppies over 12 weeks of age working towards basic life skills. (More information below)

The classes aim to support you and your dog’s journey with training building on your dog’s basic life skills or advancing your training skills and behaviours.

  The training methods used are positive reinforcement. These methods are scientifically proven to work and promote confidence in your dog.

Our Pawfect Pups academy classes cover a range of foundational behaviours and valuable life skills. The classes are held in our secure training paddock outside, surrounded by natural distractions or indoors at Lyng Village Hall. We are situated in the countryside village of Lyng. The classes are small with a max of 4 dogs. This ensures all clients and dogs receive 121 time with the trainer to progress your training forward. 

Training your dogs helps them understand how they need to behave in the human world. Yes, dogs were domesticated many years ago but do not come preloaded with behaviours, its down to use humans to teach them the correct way to behave in public, i.e not jumping up and greeting strangers, reduce pulling on the lead, come when called and much more!

During Pawfect Pup Academy, you will be provided with step by step instructions on how to train a behaviour. 

All members of the family are welcome in our classes. All children under 18 years of age must be supervised at all times by an adult.

During the 6 week course, we will cover socialisation, confidence building, focus and engagement, loose lead walking, recall, sit stay, down stay, handling and grooming, how to play and teach drop and much more!

 If you already have some of these skill, don’t worry, we will work through the 3D’s (duration, distance and distraction) and proofing behaviours. 

Just because your dog can sit in the house doesn’t mean they can maintain a sit for 30 seconds in a busy town!

What Our Clients Say

Check out some of the amazing feedback we get from our clients

Jess is a very competent dog trainer. She teaches you how to gain and maintain the attention of your dog to enforce positive behaviour. Our dog made massive progress after puppy class.

Ulrike Behrendt

Jess is a brilliant trainer, she is so helpful with every query and question whether that was in class or a text message after hours. She made every lesson fun and engaging and my dog was always so happy to see her. I cannot recommend Jess highly enough - her dedication and passion for these pups shows and I just think she’s fantastic at what she does. Thank you for everything Jess

Emily Girling

Had a fantastic time at our first Hoopers workshop. Jess was very clear with her instructions, and really helpful with noticing the small adjustments needed. Jess made the whole experience fun and informative. Buddy really enjoyed himself and so did I. Cannot wait for the next workshop. Many thanks Jess

Tracy Wyatt

I have just had our second 1-2-1 training session with our 1 year old spaniel. Jess recognises his “spaniel instincts” and tailors the training techniques for the best outcome. We are working on lead pulling, recall and engagement and I can’t believe the difference in just 2 sessions! If you’re looking for a kind and knowledgeable trainer I would highly recommend Jess!

Lisa Thompson

I really enjoyed our training sessions with Jess - sometimes it can be hard to find dog trainers who are good with dogs and humans but Jess definitely ticks both boxes! Her teaching was always clear and straightforward to replicate and she was always more than happy to take extra time to go over anything we were struggling with. I look forward to learning from her again!

Kiren Louise

Dog training can be overwhelming and emotional for dog owners. It can be difficult to understand why your dog is exhibiting a behaviour. Do not feel lost and overwhelmed, speak to our qualified trainer for advice and reassurance.
