Private Dog Training

One-to-One Dog Training

At The Family Dog Academy, we offer expert dog training tailored to you and your dog. Our personalised one-to-one dog training takes place in your own home, providing a familiar, distraction-free space where your dog can learn quickly and comfortably.

To get started, we offer a Free Discovery Consultation – no obligation, just an opportunity to meet us, discuss your dog’s needs, and see how we can help.

Unlike large group classes, our private, one-to-one training gives you focused attention from an experienced trainer. We tailor each session to your dog’s unique personality, challenges, and goals, helping you achieve lasting results through positive, reward-based methods.
