Group Classes

You don’t need to book a course, just book the weeks you can make it to – they are once a month on a Saturday and once a month on a Thursday. You are welcome to come to both though!

Dogs must be social and happy around other dogs and humans to come to these classes.

They are limited numbers so its advisable to book ahead so you don’t lose your spot. If you have done any training with me before please use your usual login details.

CLASSES ARE IN THE HALL BEHIND NEW LIFE COMMUNITY CHURCH, HAW LANE, YEADON.

These classes are fun for both you and your dog and packed full of useful behaviours to build your relationship AND your dog’s listening skills whilst enriching your dogs life and boosting all your other training.

Why Relationship-Driven Training Matters:
Dogs, like us, are highly social, they thrive when they feel connected, understood, and supported. Fun training sessions let your dog see you as a source of positivity, which naturally makes them more receptive to learning and listening. When daily challenges arise your dog will be more motivated to respond to guidance from someone they trust, understand and enjoy being with.

Benefits of Fun Training Together:

  • Enhanced Communication: Fun activities provide opportunities to teach commands in a relaxed way, enhancing your dog’s understanding of your cues.
  • Increased Motivation: When training is engaging, dogs become more enthusiastic, which speeds up their learning and retention.
  • Long-Lasting Bond: The connection you build through consistent, enjoyable training helps form a deep, lasting bond that serves as the base of all future behaviour shaping.

Having a dog who listens to you makes all the difference to things like recall, lead skills and their general behaviour.

DENZEL

"We have a very strong and full on Boston terrier, Denzel. I was unable to walk him without my husband. With the help from Kerry we now have a calmer Denzel that I am able to walk by myself. It’s so nice to spend time with him now."

CHILLI

Kerry has helped us so much already with training our Dachshund, Chilli. We haven't finished our course yet and we can already see great results, Kerry has given us clear, helpful advice which is helping Chilli to become a much more focused and confident dog.
Chilli was reactive with both people and dogs, yet Kerry is the first person outside of our household that Chilli has warmed to and he has no problems being near her and listening to her.
I couldn't be happier with the service she is providing, she always gives us valuable advice to take away and homework to do to keep progressing inbetween sessions, which have helped us continuously and I am so thankful we came across Kerry to help us when poor Chilli sometimes seemed like a lost cause.
Thank you so much Kerry!

WALTER

"Had the best experience with Kerry. She really understood Walter's needs and showed us how to use treats to help him walk nicely on a lead. Walter is walking so much better on a lead. Walter is not very food driven and has never taken food/treats of a person he doesn't know. Within 10 minutes of meeting Kerry he was taking treats and coming to the "close" position like a pro. Would definitely recommend Kerry.

PAULIE, BO & ROSIE

Having 3 dogs can sometimes be a handful. Paulie, our youngest Labradoodle is in his terrible two's and we were having troubles with him becoming aggressive towards our other two. Bo, a 6 year old Cockerpoo and Rosie a 5 year old Labradoodle. We could not sit on the couch at night without a fight breaking out and we couldn't find a way to stop this happening. It was getting so bad that Bo wouldn't come sit with us. During her visit, Kerry spent the evening basically training us with what we were doing wrong! Since then, everything has been great and it's lovely to see the dogs all happy & chilled again. We can't thank her enough

BOWIE

Where do I start? Everyone told me my boy Bowie was a lost cause, that he was dangerous . that he was beyond help and to put him to sleep. He was just 11 months old. a young male dog struggling with hormones and he began to lash out. He had bitten, attacked 2 dogs. become a dog I no longer recognized. I had to get help. I met many trainers. but then I met Kerry. I instantly knew she was different from the rest and that she was going to help us. fast forward 18 months (thanks covid) we now have our boy back. balanced. focused. social. Happy. yes, he may have a flare up in the future but I now have all the tools and the confidence to get my boy through it all and I couldn't have done it without Kerry. I will be forever grateful for her help, advice, guidance and knowledge for bringing my boy back.

LUNA

Working with Kerry was great. Really appreciated how she listened and focussed on what was right for our dog and for us. Kerry has helped enormously, guiding us to help Juno overcome her anxiety around traffic. We picked up loads of other tips and fun tricks along the way and now have a happy, relaxed dog

"Just had one session so far and Kerry has shown me a lot of good techniques. For the first time in the last week I have a dog that is tired - mentally. Definitely recommend to anyone with a new dog - puppy or not."

JULES

I’ll never be able to fully thank Kerry for the time, dedication and patience she showed, not only to our puppy but to two new owners with so much to learn. To anyone struggling with their dog, I give Kerry the highest recommendation, I really dread to think where we’d be without her.

OATY

Kerry helped us so much with our nervous boy Oaty! He was super nervous of new people, especially in the house and would bark constantly at them. One of the first times Kerry met Oaty, he sat and barked at her for a whole hour and she wasn’t deterred at all. 6 months on and he happily plays and wrestles about with people we introduce him to! He’s grown so much in confidence and we can now happily leave him with dog sitters and new people. It’s relieved so much of our worries and helped both Oaty and us live a happier life together. Couldn’t recommend Kerry more!!
