Instructors

The ones that help you train your dog

Each instructor has undergone a set training course and has spent at least 6 weeks assisting in each of the grades from puppies to social grade 5, it’s then the real learning begins. Learning is ongoing and never ending we have instructors who have been around for over 10 years who are still learning about the ways of the dog.

Our current list of instructors and the classes they take is listed below.
