So much more than ‘Sit-Stand-Down’!
Our quality puppy classes are in high demand – small and friendly groups, with a relaxed and fun style but a serious message.
Your family pup will mix with others and learn new skills, and we help you to learn to teach them, too!
Classes follow the Ready Steady Dog scheme designed by CCAB behaviourist and trainer Karen Wild. Rosettes are awarded at each level. Puppy Class and Pre-School will be taught by Senior Trainer and Clinical Animal Behaviourist Karen Wild, CCAB, Animal Behaviour and Training Council registered Animal Training Instructor.
We specialise in puppy behaviour. We understand how a family dog needs to be! Our classes help you to understand your dog and teach obedience in a way that is kind and effective.
We use reward-based, positive reinforcement training. Clicker training is offered too, although you can choose whether or not to use one!
Our puppy classes have a lovely light and airy indoor space, as well as an outdoor field. KEEPING YOU SAFE: PLEASE NOTE THAT DUE TO COVID-19 RESTRICTIONS THIS GROUP IS SUBJECT TO SOCIAL DISTANCING AND MAY ONLY RUN OUTDOORS.

Karen Wild, CCAB is a registered Clinical Animal Behaviourist and senior instructor at Pawprint. We are experienced Puppy Training instructors and know that one of the biggest problems owners come across is when their dogs do not listen to them or get along with other dogs.
Pawprint Puppy Training Class builds strong friendships between pups, giving them the chance learn around other pups whilst still focusing on their owner as the best part of their lives. No-one wants to be the owner whose dog doesn’t listen to them or doesn’t get on with other dogs. Our classes are designed for these important life skills, preventing problems and pitfalls as we enjoy our owner and pup education.
