Overview

Dogs who have mastered all the basics and completed our Intermediate Puppy Training are ready to take on our Advanced Puppy Training programme. Here we teach complex tasks, more challenging concepts, and reliable behaviour in highly distracting environments. During this course we can also support you in teaching specific advanced skills by request — simply mention this when booking.

Training takes place in your home and local environments around Oxford*, on days that suit your schedule.
