From puppy to teenager… what happened?

As puppies grow into adolescence, their confidence, curiosity and independence can develop quickly. Skills that once seemed easy may suddenly become harder, especially around other dogs, people and exciting environments.

Our personalised 1–2–1 course helps you understand your adolescent dog, build useful everyday skills and strengthen your relationship — without expecting perfection.

What will we work on?

Every adolescent is different. We’ll tailor your sessions to your dog’s needs, your goals and the challenges you’re facing.

  • Focus and engagement around distractions
  • More reliable recall
  • Relaxed loose lead walking
  • Passing dogs and people calmly
  • Appropriate interactions and greetings
  • Calmness, patience and self-control
  • Confidence through new experiences
  • Understanding adolescent behaviour and how to support your dog

All taught using kind, reward-based training for real-life situations.
