Welcome to The Family Dog Academy, your local specialist in puppy training and dog training in Newbury. We help families raise calm, confident, and well-behaved dogs through private, one-to-one sessions in your own home.
Using positive, reward-based methods, we’ll give you the knowledge and skills to train your dog, build lasting habits, and enjoy a harmonious family life together.
Bringing a new puppy home is exciting — but it can also feel overwhelming! Our puppy training in Newbury gives your new companion the best possible start. We’ll cover all the essentials — from toilet training and recall to chewing, biting, and good manners. By teaching in a calm, familiar home environment, your puppy learns to focus and succeed without distractions. You’ll gain the confidence and skills to continue training long after our sessions, helping your puppy grow into a happy, well-mannered family dog.
As puppies grow in to adolescence and adulthood, new challenges often appear. Our dog training in Newbury supports adolescent dogs up to around three years old.
Whether your dog pulls on the lead, jumps up at visitors, or struggles to settle, we’ll help guide them using kind, positively reinforced methods that build trust and focus between you and your dog.
Our goal is to help your dog develop calm behaviour, reliable recall, and good manners — at home, in the park, and everywhere you and your dog go together.
We don’t just train your dog — we coach you.
Each one-to-one session takes place in your home, where your dog feels most relaxed and able to learn.
We’ll work together on realistic, easy-to-follow exercises and help you understand how to apply them day to day.
Every programme is personalised to your dog’s needs and your lifestyle, ensuring long-lasting results and a stronger bond between you and your dog.
