At The National Dog Training Academy, we understand that the bond between you and your puppy is special. That’s why we’ve developed a puppy training programme, unlike any other – a place where fun meets effectiveness, and giving you the support you need. We understand how scary, overwhelming BUT exciting, owning a new puppy can be.
We’re with you every step of the way.

Join our specialist 8 week Pet Gundog Puppy Class. This is basic puppy class with the addition of introducing pet gundog skills. Find out more about the benefits of doing pet gundog puppy training – check out this post.
Based on positive-reward based training, our unique Focus First Training Methods take you and your pup on an exciting journey. This unique method emphasises the importance of focus, around distractions.
WEEK 4 Reward
We know how hard it is training a puppy and finding time to put the work in each week. We also know it’s expensive, buying all the kit, so on week 4 we have a gift for you.
Your own, Puppy Training Bag, to fill with your training kit, ready for the park.
Motivators are such a big key to getting your puppy coming back to you in the park. We discuss with you, how to build your ‘Tool Kit’ and your puppy training bag is perfect for this task.
Week 6 is another exciting week, where you get you certificate, rosette and party bag. Join in some fun games, putting into action all that you and your pup have learned throughout the course.
Please feel free to arrange to come and watch a class.

With our guidance, your puppy will master the essentials of all the basics that you need for a full and happy life together. This includes recall, lead walking, sit, and stay, not jumping up, leave it and much more. You pup will gain an understanding that you are key to their well-being.
When you graduate from our course, you’re not just leaving with a well-trained puppy; you’re equipped for a lifetime of companionship. Every pup leaves with a unique training bag for, what we call, your Training Tool Kit.
Complete the course and get pup’s first certificate and rosette. You can finish here, or you can continue to add to your rosettes and certificates, working your way up our Tree of Achievement.
