“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!”

What We’ll Help You Build

  • A strong, reliable recall
  • Comfortable lead walking
  • Sit, stay, leave and other useful everyday skills
  • Focus around distractions
  • A puppy who learns to check in and interact with you
  • The foundations for good manners as your puppy grows
  • A relationship built on understanding, interaction and trust

Fun and freedom work best alongside clear, consistent boundaries and good interaction with your dog.

Why The NDTA?

We train outdoors because that’s where real life happens.

Your puppy learns around the sights, sounds and distractions they’ll encounter in everyday life.

We’ve been training dogs and their owners since 2010 and have worked with many different breeds.

Our Harmony Training approach combines fun and freedom with clear, consistent boundaries and good interaction between you and your puppy.

And because we know you can’t remember everything you’re taught in class, your support continues at home through our professional training videos and resources.

“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.”
