Puppy Training Classes
If you want to teach your puppy to be a well-mannered member of the family, whilst retaining their joyful personality, then you're in the right place.
Our small, fun and friendly practical puppy classes are great for socialising puppies and teaching them the skills they need for everyday life. What's more, investing in your dog's education is also the best way to avoid future problems.
Our kind, positive and reward-based methods will help you and your puppy develop the knowledge and foundations for a happy future together, in a supportive environment. We cover aspects such as:-
All owners will begin the 6 week course at the same time as each other and will be actively involved with their puppy throughout the classes.
In addition to weekly support emails, we can also direct owners to some excellent dog resources, including our recommended books and websites.
N.B. A class environment is only suitable for pups who are friendly and relaxed with other pups and people. All pups must be fully vaccinated and treated for fleas and worms prior to starting any of our courses.

"I couldn't recommend Macfarlane Canine Services highly enough! We've just finished a six-week training course with our Italian Greyhound puppy, Vinnie and am amazed at how much we learnt in that time (both dog and owner!). He's our first puppy and wanted to make sure we could give him the best start in life, and his transformation over those six weeks has been sensational. We enjoyed every session and loved the variety in what was covered. 100% recommended and worth every penny!"

"Great experience and very professional staff helping Bertie through the Puppy Training course.
Bertie and Paul thoroughly enjoyed every session and gained so much from it. Thank you"

"I’ve just completed a 6 week Puppy Training course with my border collie puppy Molly. The class is well organised and well structured with 8 puppies in the class. There is plenty of information given in class and also downloads in between classes. The puppies are given time to socialise with each other in between being shown basic puppy manners. The training has been a gradual build up from week 1 where we were shown how to get Molly to sit and lie down to week 6 where in the intervening weeks we were shown how to get Molly to walk on a loose lead, sit and wait for a few seconds, distance recall and ‘find’ among other things. We’ve enjoyed the 6 weeks and look forward to our next training course"

"Recently completed the Puppy Training course, would highly recommend, Alan and Elaine have been fantastic. It’s a great start for your puppy to begin socialising and you receive lots of information during the class and an additional weekly email. Thanks again for all your help and advice from the Smith family and of course Bailey"

"My Poochon, Lottie, and I have just completed the Puppy Training course. It was great, the trainers so kind and patient. I learned loads of useful things as to why Lottie does what she does. The other puppies and their owners were lovely, too and the classes are small with only 8 dogs, so it’s not chaotic at all. We shall be signing up for the next course now Lottie’s graduated!"

"Thank you so much for a wonderful Puppy Training course. It has been fantastic and I'm sure Indi (and more importantly me and Katie) have learnt such a lot. Thank you for all your genuine care, advice and support.
Thank you again, it's been great!!!"
