Training your Puppy with You

We are very aware, that to help you train your dog we have to build a great relationship with you. It’s your dog or puppy and we just want to see you both having all the tools and skills you need to build a fantastic bond and live a healthy, happy life together.

At The National Dog Training Academy, we have trained over 10,000 dogs and offer face-to-face dog and puppy training courses in Southampton and The New Forest. In addition to our face-to-face courses, we also offer online training which includes a weekly live online Q & A session with our team of talented dog trainers.

Training works for dogs of any age. You definitely can, ‘teach an old dog new tricks.’

Join us to train your dog or puppy and have a great time.

Our Student Programme

Over the past 12 years, not only have we trained 1000’s of puppies, dogs, and their owners, truly making a difference to the lives they enjoy together. We have also trained many students in ‘how to become a dog trainer’.

Our students, using our tried and tested methods of training, have built their own businesses, not only across the UK, including Northern Ireland but in far away places like Malta too and some of them are now award winners too.

The NDTA gives you lifetime support if you want to go it alone and we also have a pet gundog trainer programme where you can work for us in our pet gundog programme.

What others have to say

Dog Training

Cannot praise highly enough for the training support given both in outdoor group sessions and on Zoom during recent lockdown. Our little Cavapoo puppy is progressing so well all down to the training support and advice which books cannot provide me with.

Couldn't recommend these guys highly enough! They were nothing but supportive, fun and hugely knowledgeable. Sandra and team were brilliant, helping my dog learn at her pace, with the space she needed and without judgement. Their advice has stayed with us and we wouldn't go anywhere else when we need to again!
