Training classes & workshops

We offer a variety of weekly training classes including Puppy Classes and Advanced Skills Classes - fun for all the family!

Early socialisation, play and training is crucial for puppies to develop into happy, confident, well-trained dogs. Focusing on this key stage will help you avoid future behavioural problems, form a strong bond with your puppy, and ensure that your fur baby turns into a contented and loved member of the family.

Happy dogs need happy training methods and we only ever use positive reinforcement training that rewards good behaviour and helps build a strong bond between you and your dog. 

All participants receive a welcome pack that includes fun activities to do with your dog and a certificate on completion of the course

Absolutely loved our classes, really learnt a lot and having the weekly session was a great incentive to train every day! We’ve booked onto the Advanced Skills ones to continue the good work, Bailey loves going too, gets so excited to see the other dogs!
Becci & Bailey
I would definitely recommend Forests & Fetch for training. Thoroughly enjoyed our classes, it certainly has helped me and my little Pedro!
Glenys & Pedro
We would recommend Anna for any training needs. We’ve done both 1:1 training and a group class and both have been so helpful. We’re continuing with another set of classes and can’t wait to learn more.
