“As first-time dog owners, the classes have been invaluable. We felt welcomed and supported from day one, and the training covers a fantastic range of behaviours. The online resources and weekly Q&A sessions have been incredibly helpful, and we’ve already progressed from Puppy Classes into Foundation. The best training school around!”

The biting. The pulling. The chaos at 2am. The feeling that you’re doing it all wrong.
You’re not doing it wrong. You just need the right support — and you need it now, not in six weeks when a class finally starts.
That’s exactly what we give you.
Most puppy courses give you 6 weeks from the time the classes start.
We give you support NOW, then 8 weeks in-person – because we know how much difference those extra two weeks make.
Those extra two weeks means we can start teaching you additional life-saving skills, like a STOP command for emergencies.
✅ 8 weekly classes, outdoors, small groups, Hedge End
✅ Support starts the day you book — not the day class begins
✅ Full video library for every class activity
✅ Full puppy eBook — everything you need for those early days
✅ Week 4 surprise gift — your own puppy training bag
✅ Week 8 graduation — certificate, rosette and party bag
And we include, Free, our online Safe and Sound Recall Training Programme
Recall is one of those things that worries us all. It can also start really well, then go seriously downhill. We don’t want that happening to you. It’s such a big topic we have built a specific training programme just around recall and we include it with our as a bonus in our 8 week puppy training programme.
Next dates: Sundays 10.30am
For puppies under 6 months at the start of training

“Pongo really enjoyed his puppy training course and it definitely corrected some things we were doing slightly wrong. The classes were informative but also fun and the trainers are so helpful, bubbly and friendly.”

Ollie & Oshi
– A puppy that comes back. Every time. Even in the park.
– Calm lead walking — no yanking, no nagging
– Sit, stay, leave it — first time, despite distractions
– A dog that chooses to check in with you — without being asked
– No jumping up. No running off. No ignoring you.
– And a bond that lasts a lifetime.

“Thoroughly recommend The NDTA. We felt welcomed and supported and the training is excellent, covering a good range of behaviours. As first-time dog owners, the classes have been invaluable. You get access to online resources — reading, videos and more — so if you forget anything from class you can easily go over it again. The weekly Q&A drop in is useful too. The best training school around! So grateful for the help and support of the team.”

This is all thanks to the amazing training you taught us, worth every penny and a lot more. We now have the most gorgeous, loyal family dog
I can’t thank you enough for the training… we have both loved it! And the techniques you have provided have really helped Cayo!
You and your team are wonderful and I will most certainly be keeping up everything that you and Sarah have taught me!
We wanted to say a special thank you to Tracey who has just been incredible with us as novice dog owners and also our two children, Oskar and Leo. Leo especially is very fond of Tracey and she’s helped his confidence with dogs so much and we will always be grateful to her.
